The Midnight Carnival

By: Kenny Gould

Narrated by: Kyle Snyder

Ladies and gentlemen, griffins and gnolls...the carnival is OPEN!

Max Plank is a down-on-his-luck handyman with no job, no prospects, and no plan. But when he discovers a million dollars hidden beneath his bathtub, he does what anyone would do: he buys a haunted, defunct amusement park.

Now the reluctant ringleader of the Carnival of the Sun, Max finds himself swept into a world of monstrous politics, angry dryads, and flamboyant wargs. With the help of several unlikely allies, he sets out to rebuild the carnival, bridge the widening gap between humans and monsters, and maybe even find a little joy along the way.

If you like:

• Cozy fantasies
• Whimsical worldbuilding
• Found family
• Second chances
• Funnel cake
• A little danger wrapped in a lot of comfort

...then grab your ticket and join the fun!

Perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes, Tress of the Emerald Sea, and Spirited Away, The Midnight Carnival is a cozy fantasy full of spooky fun, heartfelt friendship, and just enough danger to make you hug the blanket tighter on a cold night.

A Fun Tale with little substance

This was a fun story, characters were fine, but it missed adversity. it appeared that the character was never in any trouble and unfortunately I think the author took the easy way out every time it appeared he might be. all in all it was an okay story.
