Don't be surprised if you start jumping at the sight of your own reflection...or of the wide-eyed figure standing right behind you!"--#1 New York Times Bestselling author Dan Poblocki "Kyle Sullivan mixes the paranormal with his gift for engaging young minds as only he can do."--Jim Harold, Host of The Paranormal Podcast and Jim Harold's Campfire [Bigfoot vs. Aliens (Hazyscapes #1)]: … 2023 Northern Lights Book Award Winner… 2023 Moonbeam Award Winner (Pre-Teen Fantasy)… Powell's Books Staff Pick (December 2023)"Bigfoot vs. Aliens is a riveting fantasy novel in which love and empathy overcome differences to give Earth's inhabitants the strength to face major obstacles."--Foreword Reviews [Hobgoblin and the Seven Stinkers of Rancidia]: … A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2019… A Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Winner (2019)… "Readers will giggle through every page of this smart political satire." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review "Engages hard-to-please tween readers with imaginative adventure, fun illustrations and silly fart references...Read it together at bedtime to share laughter and a positive message of empathy and inclusivity." --The Seattle Times "A hilarious second coming of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs...This story is like nothing you've ever read before...You'll instantly fart with glee." --Literary Features Syndicate [Zombie, Or Not to Be]: … A Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist (2020)… Independent Publisher Book Award Winner (2021)"A standing ovation for undead environmentalist theater." --Kirkus Reviews"Highly recommended...A pandemic, environmental issues, and characters who do not believe in science are themes all too suitable for students seeking contemporary fiction to write about for class...Middle graders hungry for the next zombie book will devour this one." --School Library Journal "Readers will chortle at the gross details, the Beetlejuice-style illustrations, and...the parodic twists." --Booklist [Krampus Confidential]: … Independent Publisher Book Award Winner (2023)"This mystery is a page-turner." --School Library Journal "Tinseltown is packed with the usual (and unusual) suspects of Christmas lore, and the culprit could be anyone.

Good fun for youngsters who prefer their holiday cheer with a dark twist." --Kirkus Reviews "Krampus Confidential is a lighthearted winter romp through a magical world inhabited by some of Europe's most infamous Yuletide folk creatures.
