And Hell followed with her…
Sixteen-year-old Hannah Ramirez wakes on the cold ground—bloody, terrified, and surrounded by whispers from the dead. They cling to her, crawl through her thoughts, and use her breaking body as their doorway back into the world.
Every vision steals another piece of her.
Every scream digs its claws deeper.
And the spirits aren’t letting her go.
But neither is the government unit hunting her—a secret division that knows exactly what she’s becoming… and will do anything to control it.
Now Hannah is caught between two unstoppable forces—
the living who want to weaponize her, and the dead who want to claim her.
The doorway is open.
The dead are coming.
And Hannah is the key they’ll burn the world to possess.
God of the Dead is the white-knuckle third instalment in the Monsters & Mayhem Collection—a standalone descent into madness, terror, and the razor-thin line between life and death.

I always know going into Patrick’s books that I’m in for one hell of a ride. And this one definitely didn’t disappoint. I love these books of something going down in a small town with no communication and the rise of a hero. My absolute favorite types of books since I was a kid. Not only did Patrick elevate that, but he down right MURDERED IT. I did not think it was possible for him to make another book that could top the first two in the series but I think this one takes the cake. The amount of thought, character development, tormenting, hopelessness, and horror in this book is unbelievable. My anxiety was high the entire time I read this. BRAVO PATRICK!
I have to say I enjoyed the story as a whole! 👏 It is definitely fast-paced and the action was nonstop! ❤️ At times I was squirming in my seat - creepiness abounds in this book! 🫣I do feel three of the chapters earlier in the book didn’t exactly flow as smoothly as they could have; they almost seemed out of order which took me out of the story for a bit with questions. 🤷🏼♀️With that said, I would still recommend this to those looking for a fast-paced creepy read! Patrick McNulty continues to be one of my must-buy authors!! ❤️
The story is entertaining. The proof reading was atrocious. Hoping there will be a God of the Dead part 2. The characters were believable and well developed. The plot kept me riveted. I want MORE of the story.
I couldn't stop reading each book. Not your typical ghost story. Characters are believable, writing style flows and all three stories are spooky as hell. Glad I stumbled upon this author who is now one of my favorites.
I loved it..!!! In fact I loved ALL THREE OF THEM..Read them all in 2.5 days..When is the next ones coming..you simply hhaavvee to ADD MORE TO THIS SERIES..VERY INTERESTING.. LEFT ME WANTING MORE..!!!!I will be looking for the next ones to follow in these footsteps.Read these you will NOT be disappointed.
Let customers speak for us
from 848 reviewsGreat book! Fun story that was interesting and entertaining. Danny Devlin is a great protagonist and the narration was solid.
Wow, what an amazing collection of short, sharp, shocks! Brilliant.This book contains about sixty horror flash fiction stories of a thousand words or less from a selection of authors, which means you can easily pick it up whenever you a few spare minutes, or to while away a boring commute to work.Highly recommended.
Can't wait to start reading his books! Very excited to explore a new author.
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!

What readers are saying:
★★★★★"A deliciously terrifying tour de force of dark horror. Expertly crafted, wildly twisted, and powerfully original. Patrick McNulty is an author who makes me want to sleep with the lights on."- Seth Wimmer, screenwriter "Last God on Hell Mountain"
★★★★★"...mindblowingly fantastic! To put it another way, Patrick, you owe me a new night guard. I forgot I was wearing it and clamped down during a certain part of the book and bit it in half. I kid you not! I told my husband he was on his own for dinner and feeding the dog and finished it in 3 hours. The characters are well developed, the storyline grips you by the throat, and you feel like you're on the best rollercoaster you've ever ridden!"- Kristina, ARC review
★★★★★"If I could give this book a million stars, I would. I was given a beta-version of this book. So I got to read it before it came out. Not only did I finish this at a record speed, but this book has been on my mind every day since finishing it. I loved this book so much, that I also purchased the digital version that came out. (I want to just read it again and again and see if I can spot any differences). If you like horror, you will love it. If you want to try horror for the first time, this is the perfect start!I If you hate horror, try it anyway, because if this book can't change your mind, no book will!"- Evelyn, Goodreads review ★★★★★
"This book was such an insane and incredible ride! Read as an ARC and finished in one sitting, I could not put it down. It plays out like the best horror/thriller movie. The descriptions were perfection and you felt like you were in the thick of it with the characters. My heart was pounding from start to finish and it never let up. And that ending!!!! This book has made me an instant super fan and I can't wait for more! Top book of 2023 and top 5 ever. A book I cannot stop raving about."- Erika, Goodreads review ★★★★★

"THIS WAS AWESOME!! If you have nails, you're gonna bite them! If you have a seat, you're gonna be on the edge of it! If you have a cabin in the mountains, may as well sell up now because you're never going back there! Patrick Mcnulty has delivered a fast, brutal story of one family's fight for survival in A Dark Breed. It's dark, it's gory and it's bleak but oh boy is it good!"- LeighReads, Goodreads review ★★★★★
