Fever House (2023)
Keith Rosson
"ever House is awesome. . . . Great writing . . . also scary as Hell! A really excellent book that should not be missed."
Red Unicorn (2022)
Weston Ochse
"Though the scope and nature of the book is chilling and horrific he kind of makes the reading into a little vacation. Well done!"
The End of the World Running Club (2014)
(End of the World Running Club, book 1)
Adrian J Walker
"A fresh and frighteningly real take on what 'the end' might be . . . quite an exciting and nerve-wracking 'run', with characters you believe in and feel for."
