Silent as the Slay

Silent as the Slay

Even Santa Claus can't take a honeymoon without trouble finding him.

From his fortified Workshop at the North Pole, special forces veteran turned magical warrior Kris Kringle should be focusing on Christmas preparations. Instead, he's haunted by his failure to eliminate Krampus—a demon-masked killer with advanced tactical gear who matches him blow for blow.

When an innocent French girl with a childhood connection to Kris is kidnapped by mercenaries, he knows his dark reflection has resurfaced.

The hunt takes Kris and his CIA-trained wife Claudia from snow-shrouded mountain fortresses to sweltering tropical islands, facing off against elite mercenary teams with experimental weaponry.

Behind Krampus lurks an ancient evil—one that's spent centuries gathering power and resources while waiting for the perfect moment to strike at the heart of Christmas itself.

With time running out and his enemies growing stronger, Kris must make an impossible choice: protect the innocent hostage, or stop Krampus and his mysterious backer before they can unleash their master plan. His advanced armor and stealth technology may not be enough when every shadow could hide a killer with the same capabilities.

Will Kris unmask the evil behind his greatest enemy before Christmas is destroyed forever? Or will the next name on the naughty list be Santa Claus himself?

Michael Anderle (ok, weird talking about myself in the 3rd person) (1967-Hopefully a long time from NOW) was born in Houston, Tx. A very curious child, he got into trouble - a lot. What to do with an inquisitive mind when he was grounded? Read!

Ok, done with all of that 3rd person stuff.

In the first 20 years, I mostly read Science Fiction and Fantasy. In the last 10 years I have enjoyed Urban Fantasy and Military Fiction. With this background, I've been blessed with creating The Kurtherian Gambit series, a well-selling, and fan loved, collection of stories.

The fans have propelled these stories beyond my wildest imagination and they should get all of the credit for sharing with friends, family and occasionally the random person on the street. They are fantastic!
