Everyday Monsters

Christian Francis

It starts with a zombie having a crisis, and ends with an old God reshaping the world. Trust us, you have never read anything as awesomely imaginative as this!


The Animus Chronicles – Volume 1

A fantastically original horror that is ‘sure to delight readers who like their horror dripping with blood, guts, and vengeance’ (Katelynwrites) and is ‘replete with breathtaking settings, brutal detail, imaginative shapeshifting, and incredible storytelling’. (LH review) and ‘huge amounts of fun to read.’ (Paul Kane – bestselling and award-winning author ofBefore, Arcana and Monsters).

This is the tale of an undead man, dragged through a prophecy as the world around him falls. What seems like a quick and easy messenger job, quickly descends into a race to change the very fabric of existence. In a world that makes increasingly little sense, he must try to stay alive to bring a new balance to existence.


Reviews

‘This book was my first ever horror/fantasy read and I absolutely loved it. Francis has a way with words whether that be describing a gruesome scene or making you laugh with biting and sarcastic humor. His creativity with this story in impressive and I was immediately drawn into the world of his characters. fans of both horror and fantasy will absolutely love this book and I can’t wait to read the 2nd book in this series. Highly recommended.’

Nicholas Grady – Author of The Dark Corner Literary Universe

‘Christian Francis has done it again and created an amazing horror/fantasy story here. This is the 2nd book that I have read by him and it will not be the last. Be warned however, if you can’t handle extreme gore, repulsive descriptions of bodily fluids, and very dark themes this book will not be for you. I personally loved this book, the story was very creative as well as original much like the first book in this series, and I absolutely love the author’s sense of humor, especially when used in the midst of a very dark scene in the novel!’
