The HellBullet: Ballad of the Outlaw
In a world where the law is as fragile as glass, are Legends the only thing that give life meaning?
Samuel Calloway was a college student bored with his peaceful life. Day after day, he went back and forth to university, sighing as though something was missing from his routine.
One day, while returning home, he was kidnapped by a strange cult and offered as a sacrifice to an unknown entity. However, instead of dying, he transmigrated into the body of Bonnie Jones, a defenseless young lady in a world of cowboys, black magic, witchcraft, corrupt cults, machine guns, steam-powered machinery, myths, and mysteries beyond collective imagination.
Follow Samuel, now in the body of Bonnie Jones, through this dark adventure in the Wild West ruled by the Church’s beliefs and grim cases tied to black magic, as he slowly progresses toward becoming a Legend under the Ballad of the Desert: The Outlaw.

What can you expect from this novel?
Mystery and more mystery. Mystery is the central axis of the story — but what is mystery without a world and characters to complement it? Beyond that, the supernatural is one of the main pillars of the story.
Things like cowboys with strange powers, witches who can read the future, monstrous steam-powered machines in gigantic cities, folkloric mysteries tied to the natives, entities beyond human comprehension in pure Lovecraftian fashion, powers obtained through rituals and black magic, living legends of immeasurable power, and forgotten ancient gods.
The cherry on top is the romance. While it won't dominate the story, there will be a little of it here. However, this is also a dark dramatic tale set in an alternate Old West — so anything can happen.
Are you ready for what's to come?
