There are untold Monsters in this world and we must defend ourselves against them. Britannia and her Empire are threatened. For, in remote and hidden places, strange and deadly creatures still lurk. Scorpion-tailed Manticores prey upon our soldiers in the Persian hills, and in the snowy mountains of Tibet the legendary Yeti waits in ambush for the unwary Himalayan traveller. High in the heavens predatory Kraken patrol the skies and deep underground the mysterious Shide lie slumbering, ready to stalk our dreams. And yes, even within these emerald isles, Monsters linger - Vampires, Lycanthropes and Ghoti… I, Major Jack Union, know these creatures inside out, indeed have spent a lifetime searching for them, hunting them down and wiping them from the face of the globe. Discover within these pages the truth about the secret world of Monsters - and how to defeat them.
Read this book carefully and keep it close at hand - your life and the Empire depend upon it!
Major Jack Union is the son of an unknown hero of Kabul and a London brothel madam, Belle Union. Jack earned his first military stripes fighting with the Royal Horse Artillery on Mars. His background stopped a public rise through the ranks but as a political (or spy) he found freedom and achieved the rank of Major. This position allowed him the scope to protect the British Empire from Monsters, without too many question raised. Jack lives in apartments attached to his mother's Regents Park business with his batman, Kent.
Jack Union is the alter ego of Kit Cox, stand-up comedian, leading exponent of Steampunk and counsellor for British soldiers returning from war zones.
