Outland: Red Ledgers of a Demon Hunter
Terra Firma is gone. Mankind has descended. Demons rule the new world. In the aftermath of Biblical Desolation, Man's last dregs have fled to Outland---an accursed realm beneath the Earth, ruled by the Demonic forces of Chaos. Two factions, the Tantalus Consortium and the Terran Republic, battle each other and the uncanny frontiers around them in endless cycles of war. Demons, garbed in man-made flesh, wander the haunted places of this world, seeking whom they may devour. But God is not silent in the face of His people's suffering. Judges, chosen by the Angels, and their Slayer attendants follow these evils into their unholy lairs, steering both empires toward the light as Demons vie to keep humanity trapped in the dark. Two wars, one material and one spiritual, forever ravage the landscape, every new battle threatening to be the one that finishes what Desolation started. The Judges sponsored many great heroes, but none so well-known as Alptraum the Chaos-Eater--a Nephilim warrior from another realm who turned his back on sin and swore his sword to the Lord, becoming one of God's most fearsome warriors against creatures of the night. The Chaos-Eater fell contending for the faith, but he is succeeded by a son, hardened by strife and ordained by tragedy to follow on his warpath. This man, armed with a Heaven-forged Magic Sword, will wade knee-deep into the legions of the damned, carving a path toward salvation for all who cry out in direst need. He is Tony Slade, Exiled Ranger of the Terran Republic, and these are the stories that began his legend. For fans of Gothic horror with a cyberpunk twist, adrenaline-pumping action, and wholesome family values. Expect violence, heinous cruelty, the best and worst of humanity in unflinching detail, constant drug abuse, and a distressing lack of diplomatic solutions to interpersonal conflicts. This is your first and only warning.
Witch Hunt
In this tour de force of literature, Kenney takes us to Spokane, Washington, but it isn`t a city you`d recognize. The houses are all identical. Food is distributed courtesy of the Agriculture Council. Religion has been declared illegal, and the United States is governed by a dictatorial Socialist Regime, headed by a godlike figure, Czerno, with whom disobedience breeds death. Welcome to the world of Erik Christian, the Assistant District Attorney for Spokane. Patriotic and well educated, Erik is a perfect example of an upstanding Socialist citizen. But he is also a veteran of America`s massive and bloody Second Civil War, and Erik is plagued by ghosts of his past. When two police officers are murdered, the DA asks Erik to take the case. Soon Erik is engulfed in conspiracies, hidden agendas, and secrets that some would kill to keep covered. With one simple stroke, Erik`s world comes crashing down on him leaving him to wonder; in a world of lies, is anything real? Witch Hunt is a stunning magnum opus crafted by the quick witted, and sharp tongued, Jacob Kenney. It`s an exploration into the idea of justice, and even though told through the perspective of another world, it shows some eerie similarities with our own. Kenney fills every space from the title to the end with awe striking descriptions, mind numbing terror and haunting narratives that leave the reader breathless. Every word from the moment you turn the first page to the second you finish the last isn`t simply bound to engross you, it will change you!Concluida

The balance of power constantly teeters on the edge as they struggle to maintain peace amongst themselves. In the far reaches of the realm a boy, Nalitor, has been experimented on since birth in secret...or so his parents hoped. Unknown to them many eyes are on them, watching their son, and soon he would be thrown in the chaos of the realm. ~~~~~~~~~ Born at an unknown date in time and placed in a magical stasis for experimentation, Nalitor awoke early from his imprisonment and has spent his whole life doing only one thing: training. Created with one purpose, to be a weapon powerful enough to bring the realms to their knees, he has gone through spell after spell, book after book, knowing nothing else but the art of magic. His only exposure to the outside world is his brief adventures his parents allow in the Border Forest. The only other person he truly interacts with: his sister, Kasi. As part of what was done to him, he's been left with the voice of an ancient and powerful magician in his mind, Retarion. Who helps guide him on his journey to power. His relationship with his parents is stretched at best, as they view him as nothing more than the weapon they seek to turn him into. Every mistake he makes is paid for in blood. He believes himself to be weak even though Retarion tells him otherwise, but even the old wizard underestimates exactly what Nalitor is capable of. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Artwork by: DayPaintStudio Warning: This book contains cussing, sexual scenes, excessive violence, and other dark topics. It is not for kids. (This is all I will be releasing for free. The rest is for sale on amazon. Check out my website for more!)Concluida
