After losing two close companions, Max has finally come to terms with his heritage.

This time The Dark Carnival is coming to town, and with it, an odd collection of Ethereals and Mages.

With Tom back and Ned now missing, things are starting to get complicated again. A modified magical drug has hit the streets that can give regular humans a short-term boost of magic; even worse, is it causing the deaths of several people. Max, Phil, Petro, and the rest of the team are again called to help solve the mystery, and for that matter, prevent a possible new enemy from emerging. Or, is it someone they already know? Will the crew find out who this new enemy is? Again most importantly, will Max and Kim find time for a drink or two at their favorite bar, the Fallen Angel?

Twelve months ago, Max was living what one would consider a normal life. That is, until he learned he was a little more than your average 30-year-old.

With the magical misfires growing more dangerous, the Council sends Max to the Plane with a simple task. Fix it.... This time Max, Petro, Phil, and a mixed group of hopefully new friends set off on a crash course with destiny. Max and the others will have to figure out how to handle the queen of the Fae, Titania, without getting themselves killed.

Get ready for three more incredible tales in The Max Porter Paranormal Mysteries. Max, Sandra, and Drummond are back. After the war between the Mobleys and the Magi, a power void has been formed. An ancient cult now resurfaces to fill that void. And with it comes new ghosts, new witches, and new magic. But that would be too easy.

You won’t want to miss a single moment in the series that blends real history with ghosts, witches, curses, and more.

Max Abaddon was finally about to enjoy an extraordinary, unordinary life until fate had other plans for him. After beating the Soul Dealers, coming face to face with the Knights of the Old Gods, dealing with a rude unicorn, and taking on the Scarlet Vampire Court, Max and his crew of eccentric companions thought things were calming down. Now faced with a little problem that landed him in a relatively hotter climate, Max must find out why his great-grandfather Devin, better known as the devil, has gone missing.

While out solving everyone else’s problems and more than likely saving humanity, Max has forgotten about one thing...all the enemies he’s made along the way.

With vampire assassins and foulmouthed unicorns causing Max more than a headache, a personal matter has also risen from the grave. Once again, Max, Petro, Phil, and his closest allies are tested.

Here we find Max settling in with the realities of the world around him, becoming more relaxed with the Magical and Ethereal communities. The Balance has occurred, and the regular world is now aware that everything that goes bump in the night, for the most part, is real. In this short story, Max, well...Max is about to learn a valuable lesson about making bets at the bar with a stranger.

The bee swarm wasn't the craziest thing that happened to Kelly. Waking up in someone else’s head takes that honor.

Kelly has no idea why she ended up with this curse, but she knows the bees awakened the ability within her so they must hold the key.

Caleb's arrival unveiled a centuries-old mystery promising to destroy the world. Cults, stolen paintings, secrets, and a thirst for him I can't deny . . . the mission might be the least dangerous part.
