An action-packed, coming of age horror tale, full of twists, turns and unexpected adventures. Zak and Wendy are a couple of horror buffs who love Halloween. In their sleepy, run-down little town, an exciting attraction promises to inject some life into the place for one special night only. A travelling carnival, making its debut on Halloween. Anticipation builds, and the mysterious ‘Halloween Land’ carnival is the talk of the town; the calliope music, bright lights, and sweet and savoury smells from the pop-up carnival lure in the crowds flocking to the pier. The two teenage friends Zak and Wendy are eager to be among the first. Revelations unfold, mysteries peek from the outer limits. The kids have to think and act fast to defeat the evil that’s come to town and it’s nothing like in the movies! This tale is full of mystery, fun, magic, tension and dread. Step up for the ride, give your ticket to the clown, she’ll show you a good time; no one can say where you will end up, but it’ll be a wicked ride! PRAISE FOR HALLOWEEN LAND “A fun, spook-filled throwback that evokes Laymon and R. L. Stein in equal measure… imbued with a real sense of adventure.” — Kyle M. Scott, author of The Club and Dark Island Kennedy has given us a great tale, reminiscent of Bradbury. Halloween Land was truly a joy to read. — Andrew Lennon, author of A Life to Waste “Kevin J. Kennedy’s Halloween Land peeled back the years of adulthood and revived the youthful lover of All Hallows’ Eve inside me. This fun and frightening tale of a Halloween carnival with sinister intentions captivated and entertained me from beginning to end. Buy your ticket now… but beware of the Funhouse!” — Ronald Kelly, author of Fear, Undertaker’s Moon, and Irish Gothic “A genuinely creepy, nostalgic romp from light into deepest darkness.” — Christopher Motz, author of Pine Lakes and A Hostile Takeover “Kennedy’s ‘Halloween Land’ comes at you a million miles an hour. Filled with as much emotional depth as carnage. This one will have you hooked from page one!” — Steve Stred, author of Ritual If the thought of crazed clowns and killer carnivals have you trembling from both fear and anticipation, then Kevin Kennedy’s Halloweenland is the nightmarish novella that you need. — J.C. Michael, author of Pandemonium and You Only Get One Shot “Old school horror clashes with new in this surgically-lean coming of age tale. Lean, hip, and well-seasoned with blood and carnage, just the thing to get you in the Halloween spirit.” — Tim Curran, author of Clownflesh and Bioterror “Part Bradbury, part Laymon, Halloween Land is something straight off the paperback horror rack! Classic horror fans need to check this out.” — Glenn Rolfe, author of August’s Eyes and Until Summer Comes Around “Halloween Land may be dripping festive themes, but you do not need to wait for Fall to get your ticket to the dark carnival. The wonderful blend of Halloween, carnival, and coming-of-age tropes blend perfectly into a fun and enthralling novella. Halloween Land is horror comfort food to be consumed in one sitting, perhaps by a fire with a stiff drink and some leftover candy. The story starts in a Halloween carnival to tickle your inner child before powering into adult badassery. The adventure is full of the barrage of monsters and battles you come to expect from Kevin J. Kennedy. Get in line to see if you survive the Fun House!” — Christine Bergling, author of Savages and The Rest Will Come

Life’s a game. At least it is for everyone stranded in Viridian Gate Online, the only RPG where you can swap the apocalypse for an avatar and a fist full of magic…
Thirty-two-year old Jack Mitchell knows he won’t survive the impact of the massive asteroid hurtling towards Earth. After all, he’s not one of the handful of lucky lottery winners scheduled for rescue. But he did luck into a NexGenVR capsule, which means Jack can risk a one-way trip to the world of Viridan Gate Online (V.G.O.), an ultra-immersive fantasy role-playing game. Taking that leap of faith, though, means permanently trapping his mind in the game and killing his body in the process.
Worse, one in six die during the transition, and even if Jack beats the odds, he’ll still have to navigate a world filled with vicious monsters, domineering AIs, and cutthroat players. And when Jack stumbles upon a secret conspiracy to sell off virtual real estate to the ultrawealthy—transforming V.G.O. into a new feudal dark age—the deadly creatures inhabiting Viridian Gate’s expansive dungeons will be the least of his concerns.
If Jack can’t game the system, he’s going to be trading in a quick death for a long, brutal one. Oh well, at least he gets a dragon…
LitRPG books combine tropes and themes from role-playing games with sci-fi and fantasy elements to tell a unique story that’s exciting and super-relevant to today’s world. Jack’s adventures in a cutthroat RPG fantasy world will grip fans of Ready Player One and The Stormlight Archive alike. With over 500,000 copies sold, this is one series you don’t want to miss!

They want him dead, but he won’t die. He’s too angry, too cursed… and too damn good at killing.
When Venir the Darkslayer finds himself at odds with the corrupt Royals of Bish, they cast him out of their festering cities and into the wastelands. But exile is no punishment—it’s a death sentence. Because in the Outlands, the Underlings are waiting. Patient. Hungry. Endless.
While the Royals drown themselves in decadence, Venir sees the truth—an ancient menace is rising, ready to swarm the surface and wipe humanity from the map. No one else dares to face it. No one else even believes.
But Venir is not alone. Beside him stand a rogue named Melegal and a handful of other killers, outcasts, and warriors—each deadly in their own right, and each with reasons to hate the world as much as he does.

Welcome to Rockland Creek, where pack bonds will be tested, friends will butt heads, and love will prevail…no matter the odds.
* * *
They say blood is thicker than water…But what if family’s the source of your pain?
Tristan
I swore I was done with love, after my last failed relationship. Being a soldier means making the tough decisions, all for the good of the pack. So when a little miss full of attitude waltzes in, dragging a shitload of trouble with her, I want nothing more than to make that tough decision and kick her the hell out.
Then she turns those big, feisty amber eyes on me, and my wolf roars otherwise. Mierda, but now I’m screwed…. And her family seriously has a screw loose. As do I, if the nightmares plaguing me are any hint.
But I’m gonna have to put on my big boy pants, cause there’s no way I’m letting her walk out of my life – not when there’s obviously more at stake, our history included.
Daniela
You’d think running away from a psycho family would swear me off relationships for good. Guess what? So did I. In fact, I specifically sought Tristan out because he’s the type I’d never be with. Too much of everything, if you get my gist – attitude included.
So why is it when he starts acting all protector, I can’t help but swoon?
His dark secrets don’t scare me as much as this sudden tornado within me. This was not in the plans… And I just might have to make a run for it before he finds out what I’m hiding and starts hating me.
But when his touch is so sweet, his need for me so obvious, can I really take off again?
More importantly, will he let me?
