About
"The Snake Charmer"
Ulysses Lyman kissed Death for the first time when he was three.
That was when his grandpa keeled over in his blacksmith shop.
One minute he'd been working, hammer fighting anvil, and the next
second he was dead. Just like that. That same night, Ulysses'
brother, Roger, foretold his fate. "The worst thing would
be to be buried alive. You scratch at the silk lining until your
bloody fingernails claw into the coffin. Shards of linen invade
your lungs with each breath. Worms work their way into the coffin
and eat your flesh, crawling in your nose and out your eyes, and
before they finish, you're nothing but an insect-infested pile
of dust." Forty years later, a dozen rattlesnakes bite the
now infamous herpetologist nicknamed Rattlesnake Roger. With less
than two hours to save his brother's life, Ulysses must relive
countless adventures to find an antivenin that Roger has hidden.
