I enjoyed the creatures and characters alike! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Its skin stretched over muscles she could barely comprehend, and the look in its eyes was a promise of painful death." *by M***T on July 20, 2013* Danny Black is a professional bank robber, twenty years of experience in his criminal vocation and he's never had to shoot his gun, now the redneck Dale and his psycho girlfriend Gina have messed everything up by starting a killing spree, which will leave many dead, including a trusted member of his gang, several wounded, him with a hostage, and everybody on the run in Texas where the government sanctioned murder machine runs rampant. So after a spectacular please-make-me-into-a-movie exit from the bank and the town of El Paso, the remnants of Danny's crew find themselves in the desert running low on gas, food, and luck. Then they "luckily" find an abandoned factory to bunk down in during the night. Unfortunately they're not alone, not by a long shot, they have company, and their company is hungry. The title of this book comes from the factory's name "Red Sky Manufacturing", and in this abandoned factory even the snakes are ten feet long and deadly. Then everything just goes straight to hell. They get visitors, and these visitors are soldiers that show up to take out Danny's crew, and they're not particularly picky as to who're their shooting at, as they try to take out the hostage along with everybody else. As the crew scatters, the unstable Gina goes off her rocker, and out of the dark comes a swarm of hungry, brutal death. Within moments every faction ends up playing cat-and-mouse with each other, the situation quickly deteriorates into every faction for itself, and it's kill-or-be-killed, and for some, to be the eater or the eaten. As this war of attrition starts, the tension ramps itself up as the pain escalates, the dying starts, and the feasting in the dark commences. What you see is what you get in "Red Sky". There will no subtleties, this is basically a made-for-DVD horror monster movie, it's as if Quentin Terrantino did a low budget "The Hills Have Eyes", with bank robbers. We've seen this novel done dozen's of times on DVD and in paperback before, although, sadly, stuff like this has been conspicuously absent from commercial fiction for far too long, and for far too many years, and that's just too bad. So, even if the plot isn't really anything new or original, what Southard does well is in creating his characters, and keeping the action going smoothly. Danny is believable as a no-nonsense, hard-core professional criminal who hooks up with a couple of unprofessional loose cannons who are more addicted to the thrill than the job. You end up liking him, despite all-in-all. Melanie is great as the hostage, and who realizes that she's stuck between a rock and a hard place, and who will have to throw her lot in with the criminals, and Gina, well, Gina's a fantastic villain, so over-the-top, read the novel and right away you'll be casting some of your favorite femme fatales as her as she steals every scene she's in. If anything, Southard makes a real mistake in having her leave the stage way too early, and cops out with her in the end, as if he was just tired of writing about her. A good editor would have had him fix that. As for the rest of the characters, even though they often run to type, from the hot-dog driver to the steadfast right-hand man, each is endued with their own individual personality, or enough of one, so that the reader will have some investment in their eventual fate. Like a tank racing downhill without any brakes, this short, fast-paced novel is a wrecking machine that will remind you just how vapid the run-of-the-mill commercial paperback is at present. You shouldn't have to go to the small-press for novels like this, but, unfortunately you do, and more's the pity. Unfortunately, the monsters seem like they could use some more work, and I'm detracting a star because the ending just plain sucks. Then there is governmental conspiracy sub-plot which is pretty useless, unless it's there for a sequel. And as a bonus, we get poor proofreading and sentences like "Gina had tried and failed to feed her man to eat some pork rinds." (?) Or, ". . . Nelson and Mel here are hurt, and they're gonna be more of a harm than anything. (??) Still, I was never bored. I kept finding excuses to keep reading it, I wanted more, and for God's sake, will somebody with some money please make this into a movie? It doesn't hurt that this novel is throwback to the time when not every novel has to be a gosh dang epic, and was usually blessed with a great cover. "Red Sky" IS blessed with a cover by Alan M. Clark that is almost itself worth the price of the book. For this site I have also reviewed these indie horror books: Allen K's Inhuman Magazine #3 edited by Allen Koszowski. Andy by Bradley Snow.
