What Readers Are Saying

Critically acclaimed stories that resonate with readers worldwide

A thrilling chase full of ancient lore

The Monuments Must Bleed

Equal parts crime procedural and political thriller, the plot does not often let up in this novel. The stakes remain high, with threats against the Vice President of the United States and multiple victims sacrificed throughout.

The World According to Aamon

Keeper of the Fallen Ages

A rare blend of historical fiction, speculative fantasy, and ethical inquiry. The protagonist’s growing weariness reflects our own disillusionment, yet the book never sinks into despair. Instead, it becomes a mirror held to our faces.

Justice, Friendship, and Forgiveness on the Farm

The Case Against Jasper

The writing of Wilcox draws you straight into the farm, allowing you to live among the animals. I can picture the willow trees swaying, hear the bossy hens, and feel the tension and rumors growing with every whispered accusation.

A gripping and horrifying story of a man's descent into inhumanity

I, Monster

I, Monster brilliantly chronicles the evolution and downfall of a villainous figure. Hans is representative of far too many automatons who served totalitarian regimes with aplomb.

Philip Zozzaro

Independent Book Review • 2025

Where others saw genocide, he saw design. Every victim reduced to nothing—no name, no trace, no past.

From I, Monster
