Unto the Beast by Richard Monaco (ISFDB), a two-time finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, is his standalone speculative fiction time travel historical thriller with supernatural horror elements taking place between WWII, WWI, and other eras, jumping back and forth between them, as some sort of terrible thing is awakened by strange rites, apparently becoming the secret force behind Adolf Hitler's ascent into power and descent into infamy, and opening a secret gateway through the ages in which various groups vie for control, free for a limited time courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press' Venture imprint.
This was originally published in 1987 by Bantam Spectra. Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and pretty much everywhere else Amazon sells worldwide, since this is being done via their KDP Select exclusive-or-else program) Description 1945. Nazi Germany. The world has been at war for six years, and not for the first time in this century a watchful eye is focused on the movements of the Germany army. But unseen, another battle is being waged. An eternal battle, a terrifying force, far larger than the men involved. We travel back in time, to an era when future terror is only the twisted dream of a young man. But when strange rites are freshly performed, a secret gateway slowly opens… The world may not be ready now or in the future for the power and horror that lies beyond. But they do not know – this force has been here for generations… Travelling further in time, we find a medieval world beset by a terrible power. Where a beast awakens from its ancient slumber and steps through the gates to create hell on earth. And in 1945 in Nazi Germany, a man named Adolf Hitler evokes this hell once more… Unto the Beast is a chilling, powerful saga of speculative fiction and time travel following the savage rule of a man called Hitler — and how his unnatural obsessions sprang not only from a vicious heart, but from a dark and supernatural past. |
