Multi-genre, multi-volume author, DA Wysong introduces us to the second volume in the Monster Hunters of America series, “Unleashed”: Deanna Schloss flees from the atrocities from Nazi Germany to find refuge in the United States. She is commissioned by the OSS, where she investigates UFOS, and other covert cases. Soon she realizes the Supernatural Horrors are everywhere.  I am fascinated by this book! It includes famous people in famous and infamous situations! There are presidents, generals, internationally known writers, and others too numerous to mention. Events with cataclysmic proportions are mentioned including WW2, the holocaust, Roswell, and the continuing UFO invasion. People calling demons into the earthly plane with devastating consequences. There are so many crossovers, you may want to keep your seatbelt buckled at all times. I loved this story! I am picky about certain things so 4.5 stars from me.  You can buy this book:

Illustrated and written by V. A. Dawn Debut Amazon author, V. A. Dawn introduces us to “The Inn on the Isle”: Welcome to Rodentia, a fantastical Victorianesque world where forest creatures wear the most flattering fashion of the day while traveling by dragonfly carriage. Join Dover and Popplin as they embark upon a grand adventure filled with intrigue and laughter. What happened to the stolen Braybrook jewels? And how will two young squirrels solve the mystery while caring for the respectable (and handsome) guests of Thistle Creek Inn? A smattering of curious woodland creatures join forces to explore one of the most exciting and puzzling events they have ever encountered.  I loved this story! It was quite easy to be fully immersed in the adventures in Rodentia. The inhabitants are so polite and even the smallest details are consistent with the theme and setting of the book. The book is so well written, it is a pleasure to spend some time in the inn on the isle with Dover, Popplin, and the others. 4.9 stars from me. I am very picky about certain things.

Schultz except for the author’s introduction Debut author, King' Payne introduces us to his fantasy short story: “A group of friends embark on an usual trip in the woods but stumble upon an ancient entity which shows them that sometimes it's better to be conscious.”  What an interesting story! A simple hike in the woods turns into something sinister. I can't say anything more without spoiling the story. This is a quick read, yet it is deeply detailed. 4.8 stars from me. I am picky about certain things.  You can buy this book:

Schultz except for the author’s introduction. Multi-genre, multi-volume author Michael Kelso introduces us to the first in a series, “The Misadventures of a Cryptid Hunter”: I didn't sign up for this. I never wanted to be a cryptid hunter. I didn’t even believe in cryptids. I always thought they were the stuff of bedtime stories to keep kids quiet and in bed, scared out of their wits, when mom and dad wanted some quality time together. I was perfectly happy in my boring job as a park ranger. (Not really) But fate had other ideas. When I came face to face with a Bigfoot... everything changed. Some people are born to greatness, others have it thrust upon them. Then there are still others who trip, fall down a hill backwards, and land face first in a big stinky, steaming, pile of greatness. I was the latter. This is the story of that steaming pile that was my life as a cryptid hunter. Get ready to embark on a wild and hilarious journey with Michael Kelso's "Misadventures of a Cryptid Hunter". This horror-comedy novel follows the unexpected and comically disastrous life of a park ranger turned cryptid hunter. As a skeptic of all things mythical, our protagonist never could have predicted that his life would be turned upside down when he comes face to face with a real-life Bigfoot. Suddenly, he's thrust into a world of cryptids, danger, and hilarity. Kelso masterfully weaves together horror and humor, delivering a unique and entertaining read for fans of both genres. From the hilarious mishaps and missteps of our clumsy hero, to the spine-tingling encounters with terrifying creatures, this book will keep you on the edge of your seat and laughing out loud. But it's not all fun and games for our cryptid hunter. As he navigates through this new and dangerous world, he quickly learns that some people are born for greatness, while others just stumble into it - quite literally. Will our hero be able to survive his new calling as a cryptid hunter? And will he ever make it back to his boring park ranger job? If you love a good scare with a side of laughter and a heap of cryptids, then "Misadventures of a Cryptid Hunter" is a must-read. Kelso's witty writing and unique take on the cryptid trope will have you hooked from the first page. So what are you waiting for? Grab your copy today and join our hero on his hilarious and thrilling adventures. Winner 2024 Hollywood Book Festival, Wild Card category! Runner up 2024 New York Book Festival, Wild Card category!  I love this story! I thought the daily routine of a park ranger would be a piece of cake. The author proves me wrong. I laughed so many times and shivered quite a few times also. I am glad the scary parts are not any longer than they are. Get the book, you will love it!  You can buy this book:
