Belly Timber

From the writers of Darkened Hills, Detour to Armageddon, and Night of the Living Dead comes a novel unlike any other...

In the 1800's, ordinary people learned the secret of the Kala and undertook extraordinary measures to rid the earth of this evil. This is their story.

For John McCormick, life on the Indiana frontier held nothing but promise. His settlement along the White River would soon become the crossroads of America. Friends and family from back in Ohio and other points east were all making plans to see what all the fuss was about in the newly-formed city of Indianapolis. Yes, things were good. John had his general store and his friend George Pogue had his blacksmith business. Claims were being staked and relations with the native Indians were amicable. The town was growing and nothing could be better… or so he thought.

In Ohio, an evil was brewing. The Lecky Family, a group of ruthless Mongolian nomads, had made their way to America and were practicing their cannibalistic religion of Kala with reckless abandon. No one was safe, not even John McCormick’s family.

After the vicious slaughter of John’s brother Thomas and Thomas’ wife and children by the Leckys, John has no choice but to confront this evil head on. As each day passes, more and more people fall victim to the Kala Clan’s evil intent. With time running out, can John McCormick and his posse of frontiersmen find and defeat this notorious foe? Find out in Belly Timber.

He began by co-authoring the screenplay for Night of the Living Dead with George A. Romero, which has become recognized as a horror classic. His books on the art and craft of movie making have become bibles of independent production. Many of John's novels have turned into major motion pictures such as Return of the Living Dead, Midnight, The Majorettes, The Awakening (released as Heartstopper) and The Bobby Hatch. He has had a long, rewarding career, and he shows no signs of slowing down. Recently his screenplay for Escape of the Living Dead was made into a five-part comic series that made the Top Ten of Horror Comics nationally and spawned two graphic novels and ten sequels. Many of Russo's latest novels including Dealey Plaza, The Academy, The Awakening, Living Things, Black Cat, The Booby Hatch and Living Things are published by Burning Bulb Publishing.
