Servants of the Great One - Softcover

Dusty felt himself fly over the edge of the truck and saw the road coming up quick. Out of instinct, Dusty grabbed the top edge of the semi just in time. 'Aah!' shouted Dusty in pain as he gripped the truck for dear life. 'Finish him off!' shouted one of the buzzards as he flew overhead. One of the dark-clad birds came swooping in low. 'You're done for, boy!' shouted the intruder as he closed in on his prey. Humans have cats living in their home but have little knowledge of what goes on in the cat world. The Cat Chronicles tells the story of one such cat, Dusty. He finds himself caught up in a desperate struggle to save the cat kingdom and the human world from a plot formulated by the evil panther Coal. With the help of a mysterious cat known as Master Seven, this adventure will take Dusty from Columbia, South Carolina, all the way to the deserts of El Paso, Texas. Hang on, because you're in for a wild ride.

Intoxicated by the fresh kill and the smell of Yankee blood, like a ravenous carnivore, Cole scans the room looking for more prey. His eyes, wild and darting, fall upon the little girl, LeAnn Olson. He steps over, reaches out and grips her upper arm. Pulling her from her father's side, ""You're comin' with us--My Little Pretty!"" ""No!"" cries her father stepping forward. ""I'll go! Take me instead! I'll go willingly; no trouble, I won't cause any trouble! Kill me whenever you want--p-l-e-a-s-e!"" Cole jams his shooter directly into Jim's face. The nine-inch barrel is no more than two inches from his forehead. Cole's thumb pulls back on the hammer and the weapon clicks twice as it cocks. ""How 'bout I just kill ya now sodbuster, jess fer fun ... huh?""
