Underworld: A Love Letter

This post contains a ton of spoilers about the Underworld series. You’ve been warned. You know what I love about the Underworld series? Pretty much everything. It starts off as a solid vampire/werewolf (or lycan, in the parlance of the movie) action-horror series, taking story cues from Romeo and Juliet and visual cues from The […]

The World Ender: A Short Story

I was a man.  But they took that from me. I ran with The Sawyer Gang.  Chet & Amos Sawyer were brothers, and they were particularly savage creatures.  In the grand scheme of their gang, I found myself somewhere in the middle.  “The money crew,” as they called it.  Our main targets were banks and […]
