Alex: The Demon Chronicle
ByPublisher Description
I'm a published non-fiction author with a literary agent in NYC. A couple of years ago I took a shot at writing a very dark YA-oriented urban fantasy novel about a teenage boy named Alex. The manuscript, written under a pseudonym, was deemed unmarketable and I moved on to other projects. Fast forward to 2012. I decided that rather than let the story languish in total oblivion on my computer, I'd release a version of the manuscript as an e-book for free (via Amazon's KDP Select) or at the required minimum price of .99 cents when not free (limited to five days a quarter).
Alex lives in Fairport, a suburb of Rochester, New York, where he's a senior in high school. For most of his life, he's been a bullied and awkward social outcast. His one love has been Audrey, a childhood friend who grew up to be the most popular girl in school. One day, Alex uncovers a mysterious book on demons in the private collection of a local millionaire. Lost, he commits himself to a desperate and horrifying ritual that transforms him into a demon-possessed creature. Now he must consume human blood to survive. The sleepy town that once abused him becomes his personal hunting ground and revenge rules the day. However, when his bloodlust results in an unintended death, Alex finds himself haunted by a ghost for reasons he struggles to fully understand. Soon he is pulled into an urban adventure through a dangerous world where ghosts, zombies, a Haitian voodoo priestess, and even a centuries-old demon-possessed Albanian boy, inhabit the shadows of a cruel and unforgiving world.
