Superstition Mountain Trilogy
Stacey Thompson
Description
The story leans on the Apache creation story, taking the idea of a Monster Slayer and bringing it to a western setting. The main character, Ami, is one of the best in the small village she lives in. The Shaman takes a special interest in her and she doesn’t know why at first. She also gives her a stone that ties into the Apache legend. A love develops between the man who trained her, Wesley and herself.
We are also introduced to Maggie, a former Monster Slayer who helps with finding Price and tries to help them kill Price. She has her own issues with the past that are actually addressed shortly in the novella. She’s the main character in the short story which tells us a lot more about why she is the way she is. This story, Bloody Christmas is available to read on my blog.
Price is the first Vampire Demon to be in the world. He was the original Monster the first Monster Slayer thought they killed. Where gold bullets from the sacred mines of Superstition Mountain will kill most Demons, they won’t kill him. The only thing that can is the line of the original Monster Slayer, Ami. Instead of killing Ami, he takes an unusual interest in her.
In the second novella, Ami decides to leave because she doesn’t want to burden Wesley with what she is. Of corse Wesley tracks her down because he loves her and doesn’t realize she isn’t totally human anymore. He tracks her to a town where there has been a killing of a Vampire by what looks like another Vampire. He starts to put things together, but still wants to believe she isn’t something he needs to kill.
While Wesley is tracking Ami, Maggie is on her own mission to help. She meets up with an old friend from her Monster Slayer days to help kill the evil that is Price. Her subplot plays out with reuniting with her old love, Cody, but he has complications as well. Wesley doesn’t like Cody and there is back and forth a few times with these characters.
In the third novella, Wesley has to deal with the fact Ami is a Vampire and learn if he can live with it or if he must do what he’s trained to do.
Cody learns to deal with the part of him that is different and Maggie accepts him for it. They live a life that brings happiness to themselves as well as rebuilding the Order that was destroyed by Price.
In the last chapter, we learn what evil can really do to people and who can carry that burden. It’s an ending that leaves you wondering. 😉
Superstition Mountain – Blood and Dust Excerpt.
Set Up: Wesley, Maggie, Cody and John are working on getting rid of a group of Vampires that are killing a whole town. What they find is not what they expect.
Wesley
“I know you aren’t fond of Cody. Whatever happened in that house needs to stay there for now,” she said, holding her gaze to him.
“There’s something not right about the guy.” Wesley glanced back to Cody who was watching the pair as though he was able to know what was being said.
“I know, but that’s his issue right now.” She stopped and sighed. “Look, I’ve known him for a long time. He’s a good guy.”
“Good guy or not, he’s still got something going on.” He pulled the horse and went back to the group. Maggie sighed and followed him.
Wesley kept his mouth shut the rest of the time. He watched Cody but kept his distance. He didn’t know what was going on with this guy, but he also didn’t want to go after Price alone. This small group was all that stood between darkness. They kept going until the sun started to go down.
“There’s a town up ahead,” Cody said, coming up beside Maggie. Wesley could hear them talking, but didn’t turn to look at them. “I don’t like it.”
“Why?” Maggie was clearly starting to get frustrated.
“I’m not sure.”
“We have to stop. We’re running low on supplies, and it would be nice to sleep in a bed for a change.” Maggie glanced at everyone and then the town. She didn’t give anyone time to argue and headed towards it. Wesley sighed and followed with the other guys behind them.
They didn’t have to ride too long before they were at the edge of the town. It was quite, but the sun was setting and the town had little beyond candles burning in the windows. There were a few lanterns on in the boarding house and some of the smaller merchants. Wesley glanced around, looking for some sign of life, but there wasn’t anything that told him anyone lived in this place.
“Where is everyone?” Cody said what everyone was thinking.
“They’re probably just staying in. With all the attacks in the area, it would be the smart thing to do,” Maggie said, trying to stay positive.
“You know what a silent town means, Maggie.” Cody was direct, and it made Wesley glance between the two.
“Trouble.” Wesley didn’t know what else to say. It was the sign every Slayer looked for. Usually the people in the town were hiding or worse.
They stopped at one of the merchants, and Wesley jumped off his horse to go in with Maggie right behind him. They opened the door and stepped inside. One older man was standing behind the counter furiously cleaning it. He glanced up when the doorbell rang from the door opening.
Wesley smiled and walked towards the counter. The old man stopped and kept his eyes on the pair.
“I don’t want any trouble,” the old man sputtered out. Wesley watched him, confused by his fear.
“We aren’t here to hurt you. What’s going on around here? Where is everyone?” He didn’t take his eyes off of the old man in case he decided to do something. The man took a breath and then stepped back from the counter.
“Those people… they’re taking people and killing them.” He managed to get it out, but his eyes kept darting between Wesley and Maggie. “They’re some kind of Demon with glowing eyes.” He held his fingers up to his eyes.
“Where are these Demons?” Maggie said not taking a step towards them. She was clearly keeping her distance in order to keep him from reacting in a way that wasn’t good for any of them.
“In the Docs house, just on the edge of town.” The old man put his face in his hands. “What can we do? They’re going to kill us all.”
“You should find a place in the back or somewhere you can hide. Don’t come out until the sun comes up.” Maggie glanced at Wesley, and he started for the door.
“Let’s go to work,” he said, pushing the door open and glancing at Cody and John. “There are some Vampires at the Docs. We need to clear them out before we do anything else.” No one argued with him, and they were at the doctor’s house in a few minutes. The first thing Wesley noticed was the screaming and pleading from a younger girl. He jumped off the horse and went straight for the door.
“Wait, you don’t know how many are in there,” Maggie yelled behind him. All he could hear was the girl screaming for help. He kicked the door open and rushed in.
The room was covered in fresh blood, and there were a lot of dead bodies littering the floor. Wesley almost slipped on the wet blood on the floor. He grabbed onto the back of the couch and snapped his head up in time to see the kick hit him in the gut. He doubled over and felt the woman push him down on the ground. Before he could react she was on top of him. That’s when he saw something he wished he’d never seen.
Ami was a Vampire and going to kill him.
