This book was brilliant! There were times when I was reading it sat on the edge of my seat, biting my nails. I had to read it in one sitting as I couldn't put it down ❤

Great story! Slow burn at the start but most definitely worth the wait. Great characters and story concept. Very well done. Will definitely read more from the author.

Wow, Avernus Island 🏝️💀 was freaking fantastic!! It grabs a hold of you from the beginning and does not let go!! You will fine yourself reading between your fingers as you try to cover your eyes from seeing what is going to happen next and holding your breath from time to time rooting for the characters. You will be jumping at the littlest of sounds in the middle of the night, and you will never be able to look at a puddle of water the same way. I absolutely loved AI 🏝️💀, and trust me it had some big shoes to fill after reading the first book A Dark Breed in “The Monsters and Mayhem Collection”. I can’t wait to see what is next in the collection of complete freaking amazingness by Patrick McNulty. His writing style is incredible. There is not a dull moment in his storytelling. You will find yourself invested and enthralled and staying up reading late into night to read just one more chapter and then wanting to read it all over again. Both books are just that good. Keep them coming Patrick McNulty you sir are a wicked genius. So please keep weaving those tales. I’ll always and forever be giving forests, puddles and dead bare trees the side eye!!

I received this book as an Arc from the author and I’m writing a review because I want to. This is pure unadulterated horror. A man inherits an island that’s been in his family. He’s hoping it will be a godsend financially. It’s not. Recommended

When Dan Avernus returns to his home after hearing that his father has died and left the family island to him. The horror of what his ancestors have done will come to light as the dead react their Revenge on the family and friends.

I couldn’t put this down! The story is creepy and suspenseful. Do yourself a favor and read this book now!

It's best if you start this novel without knowing a thing about it. I think it is a superb horror novel and is a good choice for all fans of horror. The writing is very good. There is just enough description without it getting bogged down. The characters are well enough developed. This is real spooky stuff. What is calling Dan to the place where he was born and the nearby island with its terrible secrets? Dan and Sarah Avernus have lost their son but he is being called back to his home. If that type of loss puts you off, then skip this book. If not, cozy up in your favorite easy chair or recliner on a Saturday night; put a log in the fireplace; and immerse yourself! Come home! Come home to Avernus Island!

If you like stories that keep you on the edge this book is for you. Brilliantly written loved it

Devoured this book in two evenings. I haven't felt the wonderful creepy feeling I get when I read a good book in a long time! Bravo

I had the opportunity to read this early and omg so glad and thankful, because I seriously could not put this down. This starts off slow and is full action in the last half!Dan inherits Avernus Island and it could be a better opportunity for his family. Turn things around in the slump they are in. But some family secrets are better left undisturbed and left locked away. What is seen as a opportunity soon goes awry.This book is a must read as everything by Patrick McNulty. Believe me you will not put this down and I will not be looking into any wells anytime soon!

McNulty really throws a gut punch with this one. Dan and his wife have have recently lost their son. Their daughter still talks to her brother, though. And now Dan's dad has passed, leaving them the family's island. But Avernus Island has secrets and those secret wish to take revenge.This is my third book by this author. He's quickly becoming a favorite!

A police man Dan has lost his son and his wife is not taking it well. They do have a surviving daughter and she seems to be seeing and conversing with Seans ghost. The mother was told by the psychologist that this is her daughters way of dealing with the loss of her brother to cancer. They are struggling financially as she is not working and they have acquired a huge debt trying to cure their son to no avail.. A well dressed stranger shows up and tells Dan his father has passed and left them his estate. Their financial worries are over. But Dan has to return to the home he ran away from and deal with what his father left.

Dan thinks he has it made after he inherited a island. He was wrong. After he takes his family their after a tragic loss. This island has things best left buried. What happens if they escape? I received a complimentary copy and left a voluntary review.

If you like pure horror, suspense, gore and more horror this is the book for you. I just finished the book and now I need a long break. Whew! This book will literally get under your skin and in your mind. Today my family and I took a bike ride in the park.We passed a concrete capped well, my eyes went wide and I almost crashed my bike into a tree. Read this book and you’ll understand! Spooky story!

This is an extremely creepy physiological horror story. The storyline is interesting and imaginative. The characters are all well developed.
