Fallen Spirits
Book 2 in the Mind Monsters SeriesFallen Spirits is out now!
Once you’ve fallen, the only way back is up.
Spirits falling from the heavens; an evil billionaire trying to rule the world; and one woman looking for redemption in all the wrong places.
Adrift and alone in New York City, Alex Scott finds herself unemployed and heartbroken–again.
Through her despair and bottles of vodka, she finds herself part of a cross-country car chase, connected with an underground network trying to reconnect spirits and save the world, and falling into the hands of a billionaire tyrant.
Alex has a choice – fall prey to the shiny illusion of materialism or find the courage to learn who she really is.
Which would you choose?
Fallen Spirits is Volume 2 of The Mind Monsters Series. The humorous science fiction and slipstream adventure starts with Hatz’s award-winning debut novel Rock Gods & Messy Monsters. There we meet Alex twenty years earlier as she begins her career and search for self in a satirical and absurdist New York City record company.
Hatz’s books are best described as imaginative and witty speculative fiction: humorous sci-fi infused with a healthy dose of slipstream, absurdism, satire, social commentary, and dystopian elements.
