[Featured: EDITOR'S CHOICE] Káel didn't think his life could get worse after being abducted by an alien posing as a Russian exchange student. Until that 'one day' turned into three months, and he was forced to get cozy on a post-war planet fresh out of the dark ages. Forced to attend an unorthodox combat school, Káel's become a dubious spook magnet, and the trash of Lumer society for saving a dragon during physed class. To make matters worse, the only person who can help him seems to be a holographic fugitive he's harbouring in a rock. All in all, he has one goal. Home. Desperate to get back to the comfort of his Wifi before another unicorn tries to impale him, Káel will do anything short of intentional murder to pop a one way ticket to Earth, but he's already set off a Goldberg monstrosity that's turned his bland life on its head... And some of his new 'friends' have their own agendas. ---------- #1 in Fantasy (best glitch ever) #3 in Fantasy 06/15/2019 #5 in Adventure - 05/05/2019 #5 in Action - 05/05/2019 #4 in Fantasy - 05/05/2019 The Chillin Awards - 2nd place (Science Fiction) Dog Summer 2018 Awards - 3rd place (Fantasy) COGNITION Awards - Special mention (Science Fiction) Featured List - "EDITOR'S CHOICE" - 11/13/2018

Four normal teens are conned into scholarships to a charter school for vampires. Can they escape before being bled and dead? Or sucked into the school's chapter of the Satanic Legion? Sixteen year-old Kathy is on the kill list of a Shoshone vampire who teaches Ethics for Bloodsuckers. Her pal Lionel is terrorized by his music teacher, an 18th century violinist who worked as a Mafia hit man so he could play at his victims' funerals. When Kathy's boyfriend has his heart broken by a sharpened pool cue, she and Lionel are put on trial for murder, in a vampire court, with a kidnapped gymnastics team as the jury. All the kids face the same three choices: escape, die trying, or join the undead. Blue Ink Review called this novel "a wild ride, and the plot twists alternate with big laughs."
