Anthology of alternate Beatles stories. Includes The Perfect Bridge
In ENDLESS HUNGER, the first terrifying installment of Charles Barouch’s Creatures of the Ebony Shrike series, science and horror collide in a tale that will haunt your nightmares.
Her arms can crush the hull of a ship like a soda can. She can move at bursts of speeds exceeding forty miles per hour. A miracle of nature, she can regrow lost limbs and regenerate her nervous system, and use chromatophores to disguise herself.
The name given to her is Shauna. In Hebrew, it means “God is gracious.” But nothing about Shauna is compassionate, for she is a bloodthirsty devil of the sea.
Karl Naughton was a genius, his brilliance equaled only by the darkness in his soul. A maestro of genetic engineering, he seeks to create a monster as full of hatred and bloodlust as he is. That monster is Shauna, a mimic octopus subjected to numerous excruciating experiments. Originally two feet in size, she is now a gargantuan beast whose insatiable desire to kill results in blood-soaked beaches.
The only hope to stop the beast and her creator is the covert organization Ebony Shrike. Run by the world’s most elite specialists, its mission is to seek out and neutralize monstrous organisms science—or nature—should never have created.
The team’s members are put to the test as they race to stop Karl Naughton’s creation, and not fall victim to her ENDLESS HUNGER!
