From award winning author of the international bestseller Ice Rift series comes a new foray into fear - Horror Island - Where nightmares become reality

Cocooned in rock, the alien organism was flung into space when the dying planet exploded.

Dormant for millennia as it travelled through the cosmos, it headed towards a blue planet.

A fiery spectacle announced its arrival when it entered Earth's atmosphere and crashed to the surface.

Trapped on an island it couldn't escape from, it grew, evolved, hunted and spawned.

Time passed. Human's arrived…

Almost sixty years after it was abandoned by the mysterious movie director, Ezra Houghton, successful horror writer Zane Baloc comes into possession of the remote and infamous Horror Island.

Believing it will provide the perfect inspiration for a new horror nov-el, he wastes no time gathering a small team together to travel to the is-land and investigate. He plans to spend a few weeks there soaking up the atmosphere and exploring the extravagant horror themed movie sets Ezra spent seven years creating.

Stranded miles from help, the team soon discovers they are not alone and the rumours of strange, unearthly creatures inhabiting the island are true.

Their mission of exploration and wonderment turns into a bloody fight for survival against the island's monstrous inhabitants.

Stranded on the island filled with fear inspiring buildings and vicious, alien infected monsters, survival will be difficult. Escape unlikely.

Horror Island is an action adventure alien monster survival horror set on a remote island.
