He's half man, half bull. She's half human, half living volcano. Together, they're humanity's last hope.
Lavender always knew she didn't fit in. When your mother is literal lava and you can read minds, dating is... complicated. But she's determined to live on her own terms, even if that means crossing oceans to find the one guy tough enough for her: The Bull.
Carl Gray didn't ask to be a superhero. One lightning strike fused him with a rodeo bull, giving him horns, hooves, unbreakable strength. And a very short fuse. These days he's more interested in drinking himself into oblivion than saving the world.
Too bad the world needs saving.
When a madman calling himself Villainous threatens to unleash a volcanic poison cloud that will wipe out humanity, Lavender and The Bull are recruited for the ultimate suicide mission. Their job: infiltrate a fortress of genetically engineered animen, disable the doomsday device buried in a volcano, and get out alive.
They might bicker like an old married couple, but together they're the perfect team: her telepathy and lava-forged willpower, his brute force and stubborn loyalty. Facing down wolf-men, tiger-soldiers, and a monstrous polar-bear villain, they'll have to fight for the future of the species that never really accepted them.
Lavabull is a wild, witty, and heartfelt superhero adventure about monsters, misfits, and the power of finding your match in the unlikeliest place. Perfect for fans of Hellboy, Deadpool, and Guardians of the Galaxy.
What readers are saying: Great book! Another fantastic book by J.R. Rain and Piers Anthony. I'm a huge Piers Anthony fan and his collaborations with J.R. Rain are very good. -Amazon reviewAwesome as usual. What a pair of storytellers! The puns & the fun, & the lessons. Love all of their collaborations. The twist & turns amaze! -Amazon review
I found this a very fun and interesting read. I have never read a book like a this. It was a different storyline than then most of the books out there. That is a good thing though. It kept me guessing and the characters were fun. I enjoyed this short read very much. I am very familiar with J.R. Rain (and love his books) but this is my first from Mr. Anthony. Please pick this up for an enjoyable, fast, light read. -Amazon review
I enjoyed it! Although not exactly light-hearted, it's an interesting and thoughtful jaunt with a contemporary theme. This urban fantasy has different characters and is amusing even though it's a serious concept. I've read Piers Anthony since A Spell for Chameleon, and JR Rain since the start of Samantha Moon. The Anthony/Rain collaborations have all been enjoyable. This one is quite different but is a fun page turner. -Amazon review
Unusual superhero. Lavabull is a great short read with fun characters. Unpredictable turn of events makes this character an unusual superhero with quite a sidekick. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and can't wait till there's another! -Amazon review
Perfect for a humorous and light read. This book had me laughing out loud at times. It's a little different from their regular writing style, but different in a good way. I enjoyed this book, and hope that the two of these guys do some more writing together. -Amazon review
Piers Anthony has always been one of my favorite authors and this book is no exception. I really enjoyed this story of lava girl and bull boy. Exciting action adventure-all of my favorite combos in one story. -Amazon review
