A private detective joins an insane search for a missing person who's looked upon with something like spiritual awe. A young woman is taken hostage in a deranged plot by a very severe man. Two guys named Cobra and Rambo chug gasoline and help their friend build robots to save the world because the world is no longer theirs. It belongs to the slug-like maggots that came from the sky, burrowing inside people, consuming their insides, turning them against one another, and evolving at an alarming rate.

Corpse Mountain (formerly titled Slag Attack) is a short novel told in four interconnected parts about the living, crawling apocalypse. Hope is in short supply. Doom and chaos reign. A strong stomach is recommended.
