But he’s also an ancient. Born of the Moon and imbued with the might of his celestial father. He is prone to fits of turning into a werewolf when that moon waxes full. Wolfman or not, he’s the being you always want by your side, holding the line against a world that’s stranger than you know, shepherding souls to freedom, and fighting against those ancients who would see the world come to harm, through negligence or evil. Nash’s best friend, Ray, is also a trucker, and a shaman, wielding magic and the power of the CB radio in equal measure. Picking up the hitchhiking Hernando on the road to Tuscon, Nash was pulled into the orbit of a human trafficking ring run by the mysterious Corneja Gang. Nash gave Hernando every opportunity to make the right choice, and turn from his dark path…but was forced to give in to the wolf when Hernando refused. Afterwards, Nash went to visit his old friend, Toko, and his horse-rearing granddaughter, Billie – but the shadow of the Corneja Boys, and their ancient enforcer, Ruben the Tarantula, fell across their farm. Barely defeating The Bogeyman, a walking hornet’s nest zombie, Nash and Billie escaped the Corneja Gang’s siege of the property – at the cost of Toko’s life. Now, their journey continues…

Download or read book John Updike written by Robert M. Luscher and published by Twayne Publishers. This book was released on 1993 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prolific in a variety of genres, John Updike is one of North America's premier men of letters, regularly producing novels, poetry, short fiction, and volumes of assorted prose. Without question, he is one of the most widely read contemporary American authors. Updike's elegant fiction on the tensions and tragedies of contemporary middle-class life have earned him numerous awards, including the 1981 Pulitzer Prize for his novel Rabbit is Rich. Updike is also a serious craftsman of the short story, with 10 collections and 200 short stories to his credit. His stature as a writer of short fiction warrants close examination, particularly in light of the author's active contribution to the genre's current revitalization through formal experimentation and stylistic excellence. In John Updike: A Study of the Short Fiction, Robert M. Luscher focuses exclusively on Updike's short fiction. In this comprehensive treatment of all of Updike's short fiction, Luscher explores each of Updike's story collections separately and in approximate chronological order. Luscher adopts this traditional approach, because each collection has a dominant thematic focus and examines characters in a particular phase of development. Updike's short fiction captures the changing historical background, the shifting social mores, and the personal responses to the altered socio-cultural circumstances that have heightened spiritual uncertainty, social unrest, sexual freedom, and domestic tension. Each successive collection shows Updike experimenting with different techniques as his focus on American domestic life adjusts to accommodate new emphases. Luscher reveals how the particular form and techniques Updike employs areadapted to the materials. As Updike's emphasis on different phases of experience shifts, so does the manner in which he handles his subjects. Luscher's examination is amplified by Updike's own commentary on the art of fiction. He foregrounds Updike's remarks on writing and attitudes about his material, rather than the autobiographical content of his stories. Robert M. Luscher's well organized presentation, cogent use of existing scholarship, and persuasive insights are sure to make this a ground-breaking study of John Updike's short fiction.
