Terror from Beyond the Stars Stalks Napoleonic Spain!
Spain, 1811. The Peninsular War is raging, and dashing hussar Gaston Dubois has only just escaped disgrace through his sheer daring and audacity.But survival comes at a price. Drawn into a shadowy conspiracy that reaches from the battlefield to the ballroom, Dubois and the sworn men of the "Accursed 31st" Dragoons find themselves hunted by enemies both mortal and supernatural.
But when Dubois is inducted into an ancient order dedicated to defending mankind from the powers of darkness, he discovers that Spain faces a threat far worse than mere war. A ruthless bandita leader wants him dead-but beyond the fearsome outlaw lurks an ancient terror from beyond the stars, a horror capable of driving men mad and plunging the Peninsula into an eternity of darkness and death.
To stop it, Dubois must confront a nightmare no mortal man was meant to face. Failure means not only death, but the doom of every soul the Hidden Flame was sworn to protect.
Perfect for fans of Tim Powers, Robert E. Howard, H.P. Lovecraft, Bernard Cornwell, George McDonald Fraser and military fantasy with a dark supernatural edge.- Napoleonic cavalry warfare

"Another masterpiece. A perfect blending of Bernard Cornwell and H.P. Lovecraft that combines the thrill of Napoleonic warfare with multi-dimensional, unknowable horrors." - Sci-Fi & Fantasy Reviewer
"Dubois is a riot of a narrator. He's confident. He's boastful. He's a little unreliable. And he's more charming than he has any right to be. Dubois is a delight. Houlihan masterfully combines horror and humour in such a way that it enhances both. If you like horror, you'll love this. If you like humor, you'll love this. If you like historical military fiction... well, what are you waiting for? Add this to your cart!" - Reader Extraordinaire
