Washed-up oceanographer Cameron Custer is hoping a mysterious living fossil discovered in the South Pacific could breathe new life into his career. Instead, Custer’s new specimen points him toward a heavily guarded secret—the truth behind the Guadalcanal Campaign. During World War II the U.S. Marine Corps had more than just the Imperial Japanese Army to contend with. They also had to wage a vicious battle against the amphibious Dark Ones and an onslaught of their deadliest servants.
Now, an ocean heaving with blood and guts, a battlefield teeming with rage and terror, a man’s demented love affair with a fish monster, and a boy’s heartwarming friendship with a prehistoric crab monster will all combine to prove that… CLICKERS NEVER DIE!
Splatterpunk Award nominated author Stephen Kozeniewski (THE HEMATOPHAGES, BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS) and Splatterpunk Award winning author Wile E. Young (THE MAGPIE COFFIN, CATFISH IN THE CRADLE) join forces for one of modern horror’s most anticipated reboots!

Review
- Lord Samper's Library
"By the middle of the book, I was laughing and cheering. And by the end, I cried. I was so happy with the results. As a fan of the original novel, they'd made me a fan all over again. I loved it."
- Brian Keene, World Horror Grandmaster and Bram Stoker Award winning author of THE RISING
"What can I say, CLICKERS NEVER DIE is an overall great reading experience that will also satisfy those splatter fans of the genre. Grab your copy and don't miss what lies in wait beneath the next ebb tide of primal fear."

Many thanks to the current and previous writers of this yarn!
I am so very very very happy to report that I couldn't be more wrong. This book is the real deal, putting new spins on the Clickers and Dark Ones while also staying true to the over-the-top drive-in mayhem of the originals.
The story takes place in two parts- the WWII battle of Guadalcanal where Japanese scientists are breeding deadly new Clickers to turn the tide of war and in 2020 where a washed-up TV zoologist rescues a Dark One monster girl named Jade from a government facility. Both parts of the tale are interconnected but each one is compelling, exciting and downright bonkers!
If you're a new fan, this is a great place to start, but for long-time fans of the original books this is like slipping into a cozy, scaly, creepy-crawly sweater. I can't recommend Clickers Never Die enough.

On the positive side, I think the body-horror scenes are well-done and very imaginative. Also, the psychic control the Deep Ones exert over the minds of the soldiers is aptly conveyed. However, many interesting concepts are introduced but not fleshed out. For instance, at some point, a Clicker draws some ancient mandalas in the sand with his feet, signs which point to his genetic connection with the Dark Ones and also to humans, a kind of a collective unconscious across different species. Unfortunately, nothing is made of this, it plays no role in the story. In addition, there's always a nagging gap between the furious action that is described and the style of the descriptions. Instead of using short, fast and furious sentences, the authors opt for long, muddled, repetitive, sleep-inducing sentence structures. The slow pace of the prose put me to sleep several times and when the climax finally came, I could hear myself snoring deeply. I think a healthy injection of Dean Koontz, (from Intensity, let's say) would have helped the authors before embarking on this project. The story is also plagued by wildly implausible events and situations. At one point, when the Americans are attacked by the Japanese, the Clickers, and the Dark Ones all at once, the main character finds time to write in his journal as his comrades are butchered all around. Very implausible. Also, I'm very skeptical about how the relations between the US presidency, the FBI, and Pentagon are portrayed in this novel. I'm aware that this is a make-belief world populated with make-belief monsters, but that is more reason to make the framework of the story as realistic as possible (e.g. Stephen King)
All in all, there's a lot of talent and interesting ideas in between these pages, but the whole construction is wobbly. I think focusing on only one thread of this complex story would have resulted in a shorter yet more powerful work.
