Fin and Tonic, Talon and Tombstone

This collection of 13 short stories mixes suspense, science fiction, and horror into a nice cocktail, garnished with occasional humor. An Apothecary werewolf tries desperately to find a cure; hellhounds invade the old west; Physicians and Biotechnology Engineers Gone Wild; monsters in Memphis and on your windowsill; icy terror for Arctic explorers; the pizza man and an alien meet their match.

The first twelve stories were previously published in magazines and anthologies. One was chosen for publication in The Year's Best Fantastic Fiction while another was recognized by a nomination from the Darrell Awards Jury for Best Midsouth Short Story.

Final teaser, how do horny toads, jugs, tight blue jeans and weasleteasers all fit together?

While David Moss and Lance Carney can't seem to get along in person, they do mesh well in print.
