STALKING THE NIGHTMARE




For less than a measly three bucks you can sign on his safari and * search for the holy grail called True Love
(your native bearer will be the deadly demon Surgat) * sit on the shore of a sea of black glass on the night the dead
return * hunt the most terrifying beast in the universe, the ristable, on a far planet also called Ristable (ominous, ainтАЩt
it?) * learn the answer to the question of the secret of life in a weird bookshop in mysterious Monterey * and
otherwise explore the dark..
