The Chickens That Are Not Her Chickens
Behold! More deranged tales from South Texas author Mario E. Martinez. THE CHICKENS THAT ARE NOT HER CHICKENS is a collection of thirteen stories--a sickening buffet of the macabre and the grotesque illustrated by Jorge Javier Lopez. This book contains tales of putrid soup, horrible small-town secrets, vicious talking guts, a changeling family, and a few stories about werewolves for good measure. These strange stories will amuse, disgust, and, especially, horrify. Read them... if you dare.
Cipactli & The Glowing Pigs of El Cenizo
When the town of El Cenizo is besieged by an army of glowing pigs led by a warlord who is neither fully pig nor fully human, the raza there believed their doom has come.

Life has never been good for the rodeo clown Skeeter Gerstle. He took to drugs early and often on account of his father killing his mother when he was just a kid. But once his rodeo gets to the island town of ASHTREE, everyone treats him like a king. Everything’s so nice he can almost ignore the creepy mayor and the visions of mutilation and death. Almost.
A PIG NAMED ORRENIUS & OTHER STRANGE TALES is a collection of the horrifyingly absurd. These tales follow demonic pigs, possessed small town punk bands, castrated clones, an undead savior, and a man trapped in his own bathroom. They skewer everything from the hilarity of human desires and the lengths they’ll go to achieve them to the darkness that lingers in men’s souls.
SAN CASIMIRO, TEXAS looks like a quaint little town from the highway that runs through it. But, anyone living there will tell outsiders, San Casimiro is no place to stay. Something there, hiding in the brush and ranch lands, changes the people of that small Texas town. Among its residents are serial killers, living piles of bones, a vengeful parasitic twin, haunted cacti, and a mortician that flavors hamburgers with human fat.
