Rave by Konn Lavery digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A 24-hour slasher tale of angst and survival.

One night in 1999 sends four ravers into a living hell when they carelessly get their DNA on an unexplainable beheading.

There's no liberation for Seth as he and his friends fight for their lives in the night woods. The RCMP will completely believe that these drugged-out kids at an illegal festival saw a horned man-beast decapitating people—right?

Even as the head-chopper closes in, Seth is fixated on his consumptions and love conundrums between the Rave King Dimitri and his friend April. Oh, and his older cousin Floyd shows up to shed light on the tenth anniversary of his brutal crime. These four kids are in for the rave of a lifetime.

Rave Reviews

3.5
Surprised Face with Open Mouth“The idea of this book was great. The pages were littered with crazy pieces of artwork of the characters portrayed within. You found yourself bouncing between 4 different possibilities about what could be killing people off only to be so wrong. It definitely had a late 90's early 2000's feel that had me cringing as a lot of it was familiar to me as a late teen aged person during that time. The raves, the slang, the super edginess 🤣. Some of the story fell a little flat for me but it was decent all in all. There was killing, a possible creature, Nine Inch Nails references, and a super horny main character that just couldn't focus. I don't know if the writing style and age of the characters were for me but, it definitely took me back a couple decades.”
