Where Everyone Is Welcome But A Few Never Go Home
Nothing bad ever happens in the quiet little town of Hope. However, when the circus rolls in one misty morning in late October, everyone decides to go see what they have. Even the Jorgenson family and their 8 year old son Noah head on down to the circus big top, but when it is time to leave he is nowhere to be found. With the help of Sheriff Langley, his parents search the premises, but they don't find him. Now that it is closing time, they are forced to leave in hopes that he will come home. Will they ever find him and all the other children that have gone missing from other towns?
Find out in The Circus, if what lies beneath the shiny exterior is something darker and far worse than you could have ever thought possible. A short holiday novella.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

Beware of Clowns! …
Wow! I absolutely loved everything about this book. From the cover art to the narration and everything in between.
This is a shortish novella so I don’t want to give anything away. This story is a fresh take on the clown sub-genre, is very well written, has interesting and well developed characters and has it’s share of gore. I was amazed by how much was going on in such a short book and would have loved for the story to have kept going.
This is a must read if you are a horror fan. Also, there are some uncomfortable situations so beware if you have any triggers.

Creepy Clowns!
The cover of this one definitely drew me in. What's not to love about a circus and clowns? The small town of Hope is surprised when a Circus arrives close to Halloween. Who doesn't love a Circus? Practically the entire population attends opening night, but will all of them survive?
Strange things start to happen and several horrific crimes are committed just as the Circus arrives. Could these events be related?
This short book was full of creepy clowns, gruesome deaths (some of them children, so be warned), and a great reveal of the true nature of the clowns. The author did introduce a lot of characters very quickly and that made it a bit difficult to follow, but all in all, it was a truly spooky quick read.
The narrator sounded like a robot at times and his tone was very monotonous. I felt like his performance took away from the enjoyment of the book on audio.

An interesting story
Right off the bat, I got excited because it sets up with a backdrop like Ray Bradbury’s ‘Something Wicked This Way Comes’. With a rural suburban location that only seemed idyllic from the outside, there were hopes in a place that could be called forlorn and tragic under the surface. I thought we were in for some real Needful Things happening, and I was excited.
So, my only disappointment is that we don’t get more about the origin and purpose of the circus. The evil feels maybe a little coincidental and unconnected. Tragic events ramp up around it, but there’s nothing to say it’s not just the negative half of the human condition. Also, I would have liked to see the same attention and detail given to the circus as was given to the people.
It’s not a bad story, though. I still recommend it for listening.

Pure Evil Arrives in Hope
When the circus comes to the small town of Hope before Halloween, the people have no idea what evil awaits for them under the Big Top. If you had a fear of clowns before, this book will give you night terrors. If you thought Pennywise was evil, these clowns make him look like a Saint. The plot really does put a new spin on clowns and what may lurk under the facade of stage makeup. The story does offer suspense, gore, and mystery. The only thing I really wish was a little background on the origins of the clowns to really put everything into perspective. The narrator just did not work for me he sounded robotic and inhuman. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own free will.

Quick story
The simple small town life is pretty normal, not much happens, but when a Circus comes to town one night, you slowly find things aren’t always as they appear. The Circus brings nostalgic memories to many of the townsfolk, and many get excited thinking about their night out. When a young boy named Noah wanders off to go look at the baby bear, he disappears. What truly is happening in the circus? Is something evil happening in the circus? What has happened to Noah?
The story is very short but definitely an enjoyable story. It gives you that sinister feel.
The story could easily have been made into a longer story, but definitely a good quick story. It’s a nice palette cleanse in between longer stories.

Interesting story
I felt like it was kinda all over the place. I really like the idea about it and felt if it focused only on the main plot it would’ve been great. Not big on the narrator but it wasn’t horrible.

Creepy
Didn't love this. The clowns were creepy. Narrator at times almost sounded like it was AI-generated.
