Kro
I first entered the universe of the Night Walk Men through
that story, then I read the novel, The Devil's Right Hand, and in searching for
the next novel in that series, came across Kro. In a way, Kro is a prequel to
The Devil's Right Hand, but is not a required read to enjoy the novel. More of
a companion short story, I'd say.
If you're not familiar with the characters, or the universe,
and you like fast paced stories, you're in for a treat. Do you like Jim
Butcher's Dresden Files? If so, I think you'll enjoy this series. Both are hard
punching and fast paced. End of comparison.
Download it. Go for a terrific rollercoaster ride in the
comfort and (relative) safety of your living room.

Another in the series about the Night Walk Men. I read the
first short story, The Night Walk Men
(also a free download), as well as the
novel, The Devil's Right Hand, so was familiar with the universe and story
line. It might help to read The Night Walk Men first, though I make no promise.
I truly enjoyed this story. I truly enjoy the universe, and
can't wait for more stories and or novels to come out of it. Jason McIntyre has
a way of writing that is fast, pulls no punches, and jerks you around corners
you'd normally be too afraid to even peek around. And he does it in language
that is, well, poetic in its beauty.
One of the Night Walk Men pays a midnight visit to Geoff
Saylor, and brings him face to face with the most horrifying choice a parent
can ever face. If you're a parent, you will understand. Maybe.
The universe of the Night Walk Men is frighteningly
familiar, and yet, is most assuredly fiction. Isn't it?
