📝 Description: That Ghoul Ava...On A Roll: Book 6 of That Ghoul Ava

Andy Butnariu continues the chronicles of Ava Birch in this sixth installment of the That Ghoul Ava series. The narrative follows Ava as she balances her life as an average ghoul with escalating supernatural threats. Renegade Templars possess a weapon capable of ending her existence, creating immediate tension. A phone call from Texas offers a reprieve when her services are requested to handle Valkyries infiltrating a roller derby league. Ava initially refuses but eventually agrees to travel south for the job. The plot expands as Morgan enlists Ava to eliminate Claude Mortier, the Psychic of the Dallas region. This task is tied to handing over regional control to a potential ally amidst an approaching war in the Supernatural community. Nose Wart, the goblin companion, accompanies Ava on this adventure. The story draws upon various mythological traditions, featuring lamias, Templars, Valkyries, and psychics within a modern urban fantasy setting. Butnariu structures the narrative around these high-stakes missions, blending action with the protagonist's reluctant acceptance of her role. The book suits readers who enjoy fast-paced supernatural adventures with a humorous tone. It may not appeal to those seeking serious literary horror or slow-burn gothic atmospheres.
