A few weeks ago, I was talking to my author buddies Mike and Rob. Rob had written a post-apocalyptic novel, which a reader compared to
The Stand. Taking this in good humor, Rob joked, "I could have written a book about puppies taking over the world, and people would compare it to
The Stand."
Well, Mike and I started joking around. We've had a few drinks that night, which helped. We said, "Well, what if we
did write a book about evil puppies who took over the world?"
Late that night, I wrote a couple stories about evil puppies destroying New York City and Washington DC. Mike and Rob (and our other friends) liked them. So I wrote a few more. Then Mike wrote a couple. We all thought they were funny. It was an in-joke.
Then we figured: Hey, if we love the Evil Puppies, maybe others will love them too. Let's turn it into a real ebook!
So we did. We included our eight favorite Evil Puppies stories for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!
EVIL PUPPIES
For years, they were man's best friend. Nothing lasts forever.
We leashed them. We made them beg for scraps. We domesticated them from proud wolves into sniffling pugs. Now they want revenge.
As the Evil Puppies roam the world, city after city falls. New York rises in flame and puppy fur. Los Angeles is overrun. The armies of the world crash before them. Can nothing stop these adorable balls of fluff?
They're cute. They're cuddly. They're craving human blood. Man's best friend... just became his worst nightmare.

Free bonus story by Michael Crane, author of
