It's all come down to this. The past, the present, and the conclusion of man who's chosen to end so many colliding for the final time. <br><br>From an unimaginable start within the pages of <i>A Better Kind of Hate</i> to a bitter, bloody end throughout <i>All of Them To Burn</i>, Bishop Rider remains what he's always been. What a certain type of predator forced him to become. His life and struggle not only a journey of choice driven by necessity, but one decades in the making. <br><br>There will be carnage.

Woven in are elements of his humanity, as well as his motivation. Johnson provides a well-written, thoughtful book of revenge, glorious bloody revenge. I found it utterly delightful and want more more more." -Shannon Kirk, author of <i>Gretchen</i> <br><br>"Johnson's the kind of writer you let drag you across the broken glass screaming because you know the destination's going to make it all worth it. Brutal, dark, unflinching-this is a hell of a Rider story." -Angel Luis Colon, author of <i>Hell Chose Me</i> <br><br>"Beau Johnson pulls no punches in this final installment of Bishop Rider stories. And rest assured, no one will be spared or saved. Riveting, heartbreaking, and bloody as ever. This collection took a 2x4 to my head-in the best way." -Curtis Ippolito, author of <i>Burying the Newspaper Man</i> <br><br>"<i>Old Man Rider</i> is flat-out amazing. While many of the stories are quick jabs to the gut or punches to the face, they string together in such perfect combinations that the book is an absolute slugfest. Great, wonderful stuff." -Steve Weddle, author of <i>Country Hardball</i> <br><br>"Beau Johnson writes the kind of fiction your mother warned you about-feel the trauma, smell the flesh, taste the concrete- <i>Old Man Rider</i> is about to stomp you into oblivion." -Zachary Ashford, author of <i>When the Cicadas Stop Singing</i> <br><br>"Absorbing and devastating, these are miniature morality plays. As if the angel of death was descending each level of hell, punishing the most evil people in the world. Bishop Rider books are an unapologetic fistful of concrete to the face." -Manny Torres, author of <i>Dead Dogs</i> and <i>Father Was a Rat King</i> <br><br>"It's said that 'You eat the world or the world eats you.' This theme is (re)introduced early and carried through this last installment of Bishop Rider's story. Short, sharp stories delivering Rider's signature violent revenge written with prose like a punch to the face. This cycle might be ended for now, but the work? The work is being done. Highly recommended." -Alan Baxter, author of <i>The Gulp</i> and <i>Shallow Bend</i>
