Description:

They're coming. They are a race of sadistic spirits known as the Curburide, and they are about to arrive in our world, bringing with them horrors beyond imagination. The secret to summoning -- and controlling -- them has fallen into the hands of a beautiful, sexy and dangerously insane woman.

Ariana has dedicated her life to unleashing the demons in our realm through a series of human sacrifices, erotic rituals of seduction and slaughter. As she crosses the country, getting ever closer to completing her blood-drenched mission, only three figures stand in her way: Joe, an unwilling hero who has seen the horrors of the Curburide before, Alex, a burgeoning witch ... and a spiteful demon with plans of his own.

Review

"Sacrifice is not for the timid or weak of heart, it is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend Sacrifice." -- Famous Monsters of Filmland

"This book is a non-stop thrill ride, and I had a hard time putting it down once I started it. Sacrifice is a thrilling and shocking piece of genre fiction that deserves to be on every horror fan's shelf. It's got enough gore and perversion to shock even the most deviant of minds, but it also has well-developed characters and an extremely engaging and fast-paced storyline. John Everson is an excellent horror author and I don't hesitate to call him the future of horror fiction!" -- Fatally Yours

"Everson is in full form. The action is quick, brutal, and visceral. In many ways, Sacrifice is like that "slasher flick" we know we shouldn't enjoy but do anyway." -- Shroud Magazine

"John Everson manages in Sacrifice to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It's rather an amazing feat." -- HellNotes

"If you like horror with lots of gore and sex, with a whole lot of dark overtones, and with the impending threat of demons who want to invade the world and literally screw everyone to death, have I got a book for you." -- Dread Central
