The much anticipated companion volume to Emergence, the story of Dave Hooper's superhero embiggening. When an oil rig drills too deep under the Gulf of Mexico it breaks the capstone separating our world from the UnderRealms - home to monsters, daemons and dark magiks. The nightmares of our long ago come flooding back into the world where they are met by automatic weapons fire, heating seeking missiles (they're hell on dragons, don'tcha know) and one drunken, dissolute son of a bitch called Dave.
But this is not Dave's story. This is the story of the poor bastards who had to put up with him while he saved the world and acted like a jerk.

Review

Praise for Dave vs the Monsters.

"The set-up is impeccable: a killer hangover, a demonic ex-wife, an explosion ... And then the monsters." theatlantic.com

"... a rollicking adventure, humans versus monsters, technology versus magic, good versus evil, with a hero that might not be quite up to it." Sydney Morning Herald.

"Dave Vs. the Monsters: Emergence is an unflinching tale of axes and monsters who meet an entertaining yet bloody end at Dave's hands. Just think of Ash from the Evil Dead and you'll be along the right lines. I simply can't wait for the other book to come along." Fantasy Book Review.

"I loved this book!!! It is evil... evil and hilariously entertaining. Birmingham has someone managed to craft a tale that is not only morrish and addictive but also hilariously dark and offensive at the same time." Smashdragons.com

"perfect summer reading..." SFrevu.com

From the Author

Hi! It's me, JB, with a warning. This really is a companion volume to Emergence: Dave vs the Monsters. It tells that story from the point of view of Dave's offsiders. You get a lot more insight into all the things he's too selfish and ignorant to notice. That's quite a few things.

I don't want to do myself out of a sale, but seriously, you shouldn't buy it unless you've read Emergence. I you have, enjoy.
