Chain-smoking bisexual, Mantis, finds herself amid a demon apocalypse. With the book of Revelations unfurling before her very eyes, she recruits a reformed prostitute, a bubbly stripper, and a hopelessly smitten DJ to try to stop the biblical event in its tracks. Can the uproarious crew of misfit degenerates save the world before it's destroyed?


Locked and loaded with sinister creatures, twisted villains, violent action, and a horny heroine with the charm of a rabid wolverine, Mantis will take you on a hilarious, blood-soaked road trip through the bowels of America's deep south and drop you on the doorstep of the Devil.

From the demented author of Vanity Kills & Bad God's Tower comes a profane, blood-soaked, laugh-out-loud novel full of guts, gore, and good times. A religious, comedic-horror blend of Dogma and From Dusk Til Dawn recommended for fans of Chuck Wendig and Christopher Moore.


This is a fast-paced abridged version of the novel published in 2016. Released by Rusty Ogre Publishing.


PRAISE FOR MANTIS:


"Summers weaves and apocalyptic vision of reality with love, friendship, and a f*load of witty, gun-toting Texans." - David-Jack Fletcher, award-winning author of Raven's Creek.

Industry Reviews

"Totally hilarious and original. The humor and gore is perfectly balanced. Hysterical!" - Matt Forgit, author of How to Be a Professional Mourner

"Summers weaves and apocalyptic vision of reality with love, friendship, and a f*load of witty, gun-toting Texans." - David-Jack Fletcher, award-winning author of Raven's Creek.

"Welcome to the underbelly of the apocalypse! Filled with blood, guts, and humor, Summers gives us a mash of the most unlikely characters to save the world from Hell. Mantis has a charm all its own, and with tight, fast-paced storytelling, the action and antics just keep on coming. The chemistry among the characters is excellent and makes for a laugh-out-loud, bloody good time!" -Ezekiel Kincaid, author of Johnny Walker Ranger: Demon Slayer Vol 1 & 2.

"This book is all about the characters. You'd go with them anywhere because you love them. It's funny. It's fun. It's gory. It's action-packed. It's a B movie on paper and I'm here for it. It's also refreshing to read a religious horror where you can tell the author is actually knowledgeable in their theology." - Chisto Healy, Author of Two of a Kind

"This book by Erica Summers is such a fun read! It's got everything I love! A strong female lead, supernatural vibes, humor, and an apocalypse! The best part is the friends made along the way." - Angel Van Atta, Author of In the Tall Trees

"This is such a fun and wild book! It's got humor, horror, demons & sex! It's a very enjoyable read and a really fast-paced book. There are lots of powerful female characters, which is always awesome to see! The main character Mantis, is definitely an exciting and wild person! The ending was my favorite part of the story! This author is definitely one to follow!" - Amazon reviewer

"From character to story development - Summers is one of few authors I've read start to finish without putting any down." - Amazon reviewer

"This was really friggin good. I was blown away. I hope to see more of Mantis in the future. I thoroughly enjoyed the heck out of this book." - Amazon reviewer

"This book was an insane, fun, wild no stop ride the entire time. The characters are so fun and I loved the way the author wrote them and the world. This was a first time reading this author but it will definitely not be the last." - Amazon reviewer

"Such a crazy and wild ride with of the most badass characters. Great female leads and what a fun book! It's such a crazy and wild ride with some of the most insane and badass characters. Once again, we get some very strong female leads and queer representation." - Amazon reviewer
