Primordial Soup Kitchen: A Collection of Short Strangeness
Summary
Thirteen weird and wondrous tales populate this anthology by the author of the AIRSHIP DAEDALUS pulp adventure series. Spanning a 30-year catalog and often satirizing the 20th century ideal of the nuclear family and social mores, Primordial Soup Kitchen is a collection of the stranger side of Todd Downing's short fiction. Automatons remember an idyllic past that never was. Ghost hunters track a psychic vampire in 1920s San Francisco. A family must come to grips with a terrible truth. Rockabilly zombies cruise the American Southwest in a classic Cadillac. A Harlem Hellfighter killed at the Western Front and is reborn with strange powers. Four kids investigate a strange disappearance in a small Oregon town in 1982. With elements of horror, science fiction, adventure, humor, and retro-futurism - each with an underlying dark streak - this collection is sure to entertain fans of the offbeat and macabre.

Calico Kids
Summary
One summer became the adventure of a lifetime. Summer, 1982. When two local teens go missing from the riverside town of Calico, Oregon, a middle school nerd steeped in wild conspiracy theories steps in to investigate. With a posse consisting of a busboy, a delinquent, an LA transplant, and a cheerleader, A.J. sets out to prove that a Satanic cult is behind the disappearances, all while dodging the local sheriff, high school bullies, and a deputy drunk on authority. But instead of a dark cult, the group encounters a legion of ghosts, mysterious government agents, alien technology, and an interdimensional crisis of literally Earth-shattering proportions. From the author of the Airship Daedalus pulp-adventure book series, and adapted from his short story, comes a love letter to retro-'80s science fiction and horror, in the vein of Stranger Things and The Babysitter. Equal parts John Hughes, Stephen King, and Steven Spielberg, Calico Kids is a coming-of-age story set in a rural town, full of impossible adventures. todddowning.com
