Cowboy Necromancer

Sterling Monedero is not your typical necromancer. Even with the game system and mancer class forced onto him by the alien Godwalkers, he just wants to farm his peppers in peace. His attempt at revenge five years ago ended in miserable failure. But when the Godwalkers return — and Killbilly bandits show up to impose a pepper tax — Sterling decides enough is enough. Time to reassemble the team and end the alien threat once and for all. Set in post-apocalyptic New Mexico, blending superpowered mancers, skeletal hybrids called amalgamations, and Southwestern mysticism.

Sterling returns in the second installment. More action, more Southwestern mysticism, and deeper intrigue as Sterling finds himself suddenly alone in a brand new environment — his team closer than he thinks. The adventure intensifies as Sterling not only takes on the Godwalkers, but is actually joined by one.

Sterling has only one thing left to do: save what remains of the post-apocalyptic Southwest. It will take everything he has, and he may even need to play nice with old enemies. The Godwalkers have ruled this broken world for five years and ninety percent of humanity is gone — but Sterling has a goal, and the Godwalkers must go before he can finally hang up his cowboy hat.

Four Cowboy Necromancer novellas collected in one volume. Sterling and the Sunflower Kid traverse the post-apocalyptic Southwest — from Arizona's brutal deserts to the chaotic streets of New Orleans and on to California — battling supernatural foes and extraterrestrial threats in a world scarred by the Reset. The collection culminates in a gripping standoff: vanquish the Godwalkers and risk losing their powers, or let the alien terrors reign supreme.
