JEFF STRAND is the creator of Andrew Mayhem, whose demented adventures appear in the novels Graverobbers Wanted (No Experience Necessary), Single White Psychopath Seeks Same, Casket For Sale (Only Used Once), and also in the hitman anthology These Guns For Hire. His other novels include the giantkillerantsonarampage extravaganza Mandibles, the feelgood zombie novel The Sinister Mr. Corpse, and his first “serious” novel Pressure, which Publishers Weekly and other fine critics said did not suck at all. He’s also responsible for a trio of comedy novels where nobody gets dismembered: Out of Whack, Elrod McBugle on the Loose, and How to Rescue a Dead Princess. His short story collection Gleefully Macabre Tales is coming soon. Or, depending when you’re reading this, is already out. Or, depending on his career trajectory, has just been canceled by the publisher in a momentary fit of rational thought.
