Heroin in the Magic Now — Terry M. West

"A wild ride through some wickedly dark places."-Bram Stoker Award® winner Lucy Taylor

"Will definitely leave an indelible mark deep within your soul!"-DIABOLIQUE MAGAZINE

Imagine a world just like yours with one startling difference: every creature of legend has stepped forward from the shadow and now exist shoulder to shoulder with humankind! Welcome to the Magic Now! New York City has become a macabre melting pot. Vampires, werewolves, zombies and ghouls are now the new immigrants and they are chasing the American dream. The Night Things have become part of the system. And there are those anxious to exploit the monsters for profit and lust.

Monsters and the Magic Now collects the first two Magic Now tales: Hardcore Crust and Heroin in the Magic Now. Both chronicle the life of Gary Hack, a down on his luck exploitation filmmaker and junkie who charts a new and dangerous course in the underground market of monster fetish films. It is a dark and soul-stunting journey. Also included is a lengthy preview of Night Things: Dracula versus Frankenstein.
