If you're tired of the good guy winning all the time, then this is the series for you. Join Clive Logan as he's executed for being an emotionless serial killer, only to be brought back to Earth from Hell as a Spirit Core. Now, using his new insubstantial form, he is tasked with continuing his spree of murders by using his victims' fear to kill them. Fun, right?
Don't take my word for it; check out these reviews from the first two books in the series:
"...If you enjoy, or at least don't mind, being witness to the psychological torture and death of innocents, this book may be for you..."
"...Not my kind of book where the hero is some sadistic murder with no redeeming qualities. He writes well and if this is your type of book I suppose it could be entertaining but not for me..."
"...Why would anyone think a story that glorifies scaring people to death is such a wonderful story line is beyond me..."
"...An interesting reversal of perspective on the typical haunted house story. I’ve always enjoyed stories/ games that have the perspective of the antagonistic “malevolent entity”, rare though such works may be..."
____________________________________
An unsuspecting carnival is about to get a dose of serial killer magic.
After two successful completed objectives, our not-so-friendly Spirit Core finds himself in an unexpected location. Instead of “haunting” a house and killing the residents inside using their own fear against them, the intangible entity ends up arriving at his new objective floating above a traveling carnival, of all places.
Now, the reincarnated soul of emotionless serial killer, Clive Logan, must successfully kill at least some of the carnival’s visitors – but how? Luckily, the Goddess of the Underworld has provided the Spirit Core with a variety of new mechanics suited to his new location; these mechanics will allow Clive to raise their FEAR Levels up to the point where they can be killed from fear alone. Coupled with his minions, Preston and Brittany Miller – who are due to arrive any day – it should be a simple enough execution of his objective.
Unfortunately, there are forces waging their efforts against him. Father Stryker is closing in on his location; if Clive makes a wrong move, he could end up being exorcized and destroyed, ending his reign of death before he could really get his momentum going. Added to that, the carnival’s employees have a secret that they are hiding, which could potentially bring more attention to his location than he’d prefer.
Will Clive be able to kill to his satisfaction, or will he be stopped before his objective is complete? Find out now…in Carnival of Fear.
Warning: There are some very sensitive and disturbing criminal activities contained in this book, as well as it being the tale of a serial killer doing what serial killers do; so, if you are opposed to those sorts of things, turn back now…
Contains LitRPG/GameLit aspects such as statistics and leveling, as well as Dungeon Core elements.
