Publisher's summary

Victor Standish: Urban legend, abandoned child, mocker of monsters:

“I learned to walk on cat-feet by living on the streets of too many hard cities for six years...since I was seven. I know why dogs howl at the dark and why cats prick up their ears after midnight.

All too often I hear the beating of black wings and the scratching of half-seen shapes on the pavement hidden by shadow. I have always known I am an outsider, a stranger no matter where I roam among those who are still men.

There are horrors beyond life's edge that most don’t suspect, and once in a while a wandering stray calls them just within range. And yes, all too often I am that stray".

Follow Victor as he scurries down the garbage-strewn streets of a lifeless Detroit, hiding from and fighting against the hungry dead reanimated by his strange mother.

Watch him fight for his life in a ramshackle New York country estate against the alien spawn who fell from the stars a century ago.

See Victor contend against nightmares in a carnival of the damned - meet with him:

  • Princess Shert Nebti, the living mummy child
  • Shiver Phoenix, the enticing girl who hides a terrible secret under the black glove she never removes
  • Azizza, the Snake Woman out of Time
  • Simba, the caged panther whose dying brings freedom
  • And Madera, the mysterious Fortune Teller whose trailer holds death and life.

Start the road to Legend in Carnival of the Damned, book zero in The Legend of Victor Standish.

An experience like no other!

Roland Yeomans has created an engagingly creepy tale featuring young Victor--a 13 year old navigating the streets of Detroit...but not like any Detroit you're familiar with.

Excellent writing by Yeomans and equally-good narration by Francene Lockett.
