Hawaiian Thunder: Curse of the Cloud-Dog

By John Bruce Grinols

In the vast tapestry of history, the threads of myth and reality often intertwine, creating narratives that both captivate and challenge our understanding of the world. "Hawaiian Thunder: Curse of the Cloud-Dog" emerged from my fascination with this interplay, drawing inspiration from the rich folklore of the Hawaiian Islands and the timeless legends of vampires and shape shifters.
This story began as a quest to explore not only the supernatural but also the deep connections between culture, identity, and the land itself. The characters of Poki McGuire and Vlad Dracula Tepes represent two sides of a coin-one seeking redemption and belonging, the other embodying the darkness that can consume us all. Their fates collide in a landscape where ancient gods and spirits still hold sway, illustrating how the past informs our present and shapes our future.
As you journey through the pages, you will encounter themes of transformation, the struggle for acceptance, and the enduring battle between light and darkness. The lush imagery of Hawaii serves not just as a backdrop but also as a living entity, filled with its own stories and spirits. I invite you to immerse yourself in this world, to feel its heat and its beauty, and to ponder the deeper questions it raises about our place in the universe.
Thank you for joining me on this adventure. May the tales of the past inspire you to find courage in your own journey, to embrace the wildness within, and to always seek the light, even in the darkest of times.
