Description

🛸 THEY CAME FROM THE STARS... AND THEY'RE COMING FOR YOU.

Roswell, New Mexico: a sleepy desert town buzzing with UFO hunters, alien conspiracies, and a dark secret the government will do anything to hide. For James and his younger brother Wes, it was supposed to be a simple family vacation. But the moment they arrive, they're dodging Men in Black, chased by extraterrestrials, and contacted by a time-bending being from beyond the stars.

In Try Not to Die: In Roswell and Beyond, you control the story. As James, you'll navigate a mind-warping journey across dimensions, alien ships, and far-off planets—all while trying to protect your brother and survive the impossible. Your only weapon? The skills you picked up mastering the video game Star Pilot. But this is no simulation.

With 22 unique and brutal ways to die, every decision could be your last. Will you get abducted, dissected, blasted, crushed, devoured, or worse? Or will you uncover the truth and escape the alien nightmare?

Kevin David Anderson’s debut novel the geeky, cult zombie classic, Night of the Living Trekkies, from Quirk Books, the publisher of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, is a funny, offbeat Zombie novel that explores the pop culture carnage that ensues when the undead crash a Star Trek convention. Publishers Weekly gave Night of the Living Trekkies a starred review and the Washington Post listed it as one of the top five Zombie novels of 2010. Night of the Living Trekkies and Anderson’s follow-up, Night of the ZomBEEs were required reading in college courses, most notably a class designed for incoming freshmen, How to Survive Your Freshman Year by Studying the Zombie Apocalypse, at Mansfield University in Pennsylvania. Anderson’s short stories have appeared in almost a hundred publications, from anthologies and magazines to podcasts and radio dramas. His work has appeared in multiple languages and on every continent, excluding Antarctica - mostly because penguins and polar bears don’t read. Anderson was the first American to be published in the award-winning South African Horror Magazine, Something Wicked. He has contributed to many award-worthy publications including the British Fantasy Award-winning Magazine Murky Depths, and the Bram Stoker nominated anthology, The Beauty of Death from Independent Legions Publishing. Many of Anderson’s stories have been turned into audio productions with voice talents like Jason Hill, Rish Outfield, and Mur Lafferty, on Parsec Award-winning podcasts like Pseudopod, The Drabblecast, The Dunesteef and on the very popular Simply Scary Podcast and the No Sleep Podcast. When not writing horror, comedy, or horror-comedy, Anderson likes spending time at the beach with his family, attending horror conventions and book festivals, and writing and telling bad, corny, nerdy jokes. Dad jokes with a geeky twist are his specialty and with the help of his son, he published The Geektastic Joke Book for Kids under the pseudonym, Giggles A. Lott...

My writing covers a wide range, with fiction being my favorite to create. There are 21 titles in my interactive Try Not to Die series and 29 more in the works. I also have two nonfiction titles, both inspired by a reckless lifestyle, playing Ivy League football, and battering my brain as an unsuccessful MMA fighter and boxer. Unlocking the Cage is the largest sociological study of MMA fighters to date and TBI or CTE aims to spread awareness and hope to others that suffer with traumatic brain injury symptoms.

I live in sunny California with my wife, two kids, five cats, and one demon. Derek the Demon pops in whenever he’s bored and makes special appearances on my social media. You can also get three free ebooks by signing up to my newsletter. This letter is only for the brave, or at least those brave enough to deal with bad dad jokes, a crude sense of humor, and loads and loads of unhappy endings. Derek and I would love to have you join us!
