Publisher's summary

Santa fighting zombies… I mean, do I really need to write more? Fine…then hold on to the nearest hard reindeer cock, things are about to get red jolly suit tinselly weird.

On a routine Christmas eve, after a fight with the new Mrs. Claus, who I’m obligated to point out has a great rack…boobs I mean, not reindeer, Santa finds himself drunk, cranky, and living in his past…did I mention he’s cranky? And, grumpy as shit, and preloaded will the latest Christmas profanities.

After a poor start to his only real day working all year, Santa against his analytic department’s best-laid plans, overrides the sleigh's autopilot and makes a pit stop at the only house whose cookies he’s ever loved. A poor landing and ironman-like entrance into the house later, Santa stumbles into something he had no desire to be part of - at least that he knows of. See, Santa isn’t who you think he is…not that he really knows either. Did I mention the thing he stumbles drunkenly into was zombies? Because it is. Zombies on Christmas eve…Santa Claus fighting f-----g zombies.

This surprisingly emotional and frightening vulgar novella will be on the top of every zombie and Christmas-loving listeners' list. Snuggled deep in the Aurora Wasteland, Vaughn Ashby’s literary universe, this is a stand-alone novella that fits into the larger narrative.

Now I want more

This book was a crazy ride. There were times I couldn't even begin to guess where the story was going, but it was a good time. The book ended really strong and left me wanting more.

The narrator is great, and delivers the over the top swearing amazingly.

Another wacky and hilarious addition to the series

Another wacky and hilarious addition to the Aurora Wasteland series. Santa of the Dead is a novella that does not disappoint! If you have liked any of the previous titles, you'll love this "holiday cheer". Santa, zombies, and holiday cheer abound in this funny horror book. Audio Version: Thomas Gloom does a fantastic job narrating this title!

Santa's got a brand new bag

Exactly as bizarre as you'd expect in the Aurora Wastelands. Santa, zombies, and Krampus; oh my! There is an adventure, laughs, horror, and some mighty finely colorful language in this holiday short that's sure to be a hit with Ashby's fans.

Jingle Booze. Ho, Ho, Ho!

I have listened to several books by Vaughn Ashby. I am declaring this one as my favorite. Maybe it's because I love Christmas, Santa Clause and reindeer.
So funny. So vulgar. So many zombies. So full of Christmas cheer. Love of family. Love of cookies. Love of booze. All in Aurora Wasteland.
I highly recommend the audio version of this book. The narrator really nails these characters. Thomas Gloom has many voices and knows how to use them! 5 stars plus for him.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book from the author through Story Origin.
