These Hellish Happenings - Jennifer Rainey


Bio:
Jennifer Rainey was raised by wolves who later sold her to gypsies. She then joined the circus at the age of ten. There, she was the flower girl in the famed Bearded Bride of Beverly Hills show until the act was discontinued (it was discovered that the bearded lady was actually a man).  From there, she wandered around the country selling novelty trucker hats with vaguely amusing sayings printed on front. Somehow, she made enough money to go to The Ohio State University for a major in English.

Product description:
In 1707, hapless vampire Jack Bentley made a pact with the Devil in order to escape a vampire hunt. Dealing with Satan seemed better than your standard angry mob at the time. But three centuries later, Satan is ready to collect His dues, whether the vampire likes it or not. He's taking Jack to Hell, and He's even got a job picked out for him down below: an eternal position at the Registration Office of the Damned.
Jack attempts to adjust to life on the Administrative Level of Hell, where fire and brimstone have been replaced by board meetings and the occasional broken copier. But the whiny complaints of the recently deceased and the legions of suited, cookie-cutter demons are the least of his problems. Try adding to the equation a dead ex-lover, a dangerous attraction to his high-ranking demon companion, Alexander Ridner, and the sticky and distorted anti-vampire politics of a Hell that is surprisingly like our own world.Q: What will e-readers like about your book?
These Hellish Happenings is a very unique book. It doesn't have your usual vampires, your usual demons, and certainly not your usual Hell! Not only that, it's quick-witted, engaging and it's only $0.99.

Q: Why did you go indie?
I like the control that indie authors have and also the indie community. I've never seen a more helpful group of people!

Q: Who are your favorite authors in your genre?
I'm a big fan of Neil Gaiman, Christopher Moore and Terry Pratchett. I also recently started reading Gail Carriger, and I'm growing very fond of her style.

  1. I read this book and loved it. Definitely a thumbs-up from me.

    I don't know Jennifer except through finding her book in the Amazon forums, thought it sounded fun, read the sample, then bought the book. That's how it's supposed to work, and it did.
