August Hill is an adult fiction writer. Born in Connecticut, August now lives in Massachusetts with his family. His novel appeals to young adult readers and people of any age who are looking for a good horror thriller. When not in front of his computer writing, August can be found playing Xbox with friends, watching movies (He’s a huge movie buff), or working out at the gym.

August's knack for writing fiction emerged at an early age, when he wrote stories for his own enjoyment. He decided to put his hand to writing a book at 17, when he came up with the concept for the dark, witty, and suspenseful psychological-thriller, Barking Madness. He enjoyed creating the different layers of characters and relationships in his story, and like any debu

This book is very well written, and it flows extremely fast. The pacing is stellar. My favorite parts are the sections that deviate from The Adventures of Huckelberry Finn. In fact, I wish this book was just a completely original story. It being rela ...more

Pillars of the Earth is one of my all time favorite books, and the sequel is nearly as amazing. The first half is on the slower side, but the second is on the same caliber as the first book in this series. I really love Follet's writing style. He's j ...more

I loved this series, and I would love to see another book or 10 coming up. I noticed this book was recommended for ages 13 to 18...don't quote me on that, but it surprised me because I am 64 and enjoyed each and every " Read more of this review »

This is my favorite in the series by a long shot! The action has just been upped in a major way in this one, and so has the world building. Both halves of this book have great tension, buildup, character interaction, scenery, and villains. Seriously, ...more

“The families I continue to hurt and leave broken break me, and the ghostly remains that linger through the aftermath of their shattered futures reflect back and crack the mirror of my own soul." - Rosetta”
Ryan Hill, Barking Madness

“Without electronics to help me through my miserable life, I decided that I’d start working out. It would be great. My dad has a weight room in the basement that he doesn’t really use anymore, so I could lift down there. I began fantasizing about becoming huge and having girls all over me, which helped me through the rest of the evening, but of course I never actually got to lifting. All I did was lie down and dream, until school bitch slapped me into consciousness the following morning." - Michael”
