The Wild Hunt - A Historical Fantasy Novella by David Simon

Axes fell and swords swung, severing heads, hacking limbs, cleaving bodies in two. The dogs worked in concert, chasing down fleeing men, ripping out throats.

1761—Karl Ottweiler encounters the berserker warriors and hell hounds of the supernatural Wild Hunt as a young boy in Germany’s Black Forest.

1812—Karl and his son Michael, American soldiers with the 4th Infantry Regiment, find themselves locked in a life and death struggle with the Wild Hunt on the bloody battleground at Fort Detroit. When Michael is taken by the Hunt, Karl must pursue them across Upper Canada and into the Otherlands, the nightmarish world that the Wild Hunt calls home. With the help of an otherworldly witch named Black Alice and a surprising companion, Karl’s journey takes him to places he’s never imagined. His and Michael’s lives hang in the balance.
