In a familiar reality where each day mirrors the script of a horror movie, a young slasher joins the lineup of Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Meyers and other infamous blade wielders in this 82,000 word Urban Fantasy novel.



Introducing, Ford Fischer.



More than just the son of a transsexual woman and a kleptomaniac, Ford is cursed with a bit of madness. He’s drawn to the blade, harvesting a craving to slash through human flesh. His college education, few relationships and finances suffer as he lurks in the shadows stalking victims-to-be. It’s not long until he slashes one too many and the innocence in him begins to reject his covert lifestyle.



Ford’s only accessible confidant being a homicidal stuffed-bear rooting for more bloodshed, he turns to slashers anonymous in hopes of achieving as much normality that remains in a world where there’s a haunted house category in nearly every realtor catalog.



His desire for blade-sobriety is halted as a vigilante takes to the streets of the coastal town targeting slashers.



Ford momentarily adopts a new mindset – slash or be slashed.



Fischer’s tale is coupled with a romantically conflicted exorcist whose dating life is complicated by demons who can’t keep out of the minds of her suitors and a young officer who serves and protects against mad threats by day but is a victim of his life threatening nightmares by night.



The trio, woven into each other’s lives, unites behind a shared purpose – overcome the madness.

*received from author for an honest review

I enjoyed the majority of the book but I had a couple problems with parts of it. The problems I had were not so much that I didn't like it I just didn't like the way those parts fit together with the rest of the story. I am going to give this one 3.5 stars.

Ford is the main character in the story and I connected with Ford. I understood why he did what he did in his own twisted way. He couldn't help it but he did not want to slash. You see Ford grow and become a better person in this story, not cured but better. Ford also has home issues. His father has become his "other mother" through surgery and his real mother has gotten in to drugs and made some bad decisions. I did like how this turned out for them and the journey getting there was quite a read. The family had to go through a serial slasher killing other slashers, an alien abduction, and a mirror that seemed to enjoy teaching people a lesson on vanity.

Sidnee is an exorcist. She hears the demons that are trying to possess people at their weakest moments and she can also communicate with them. Sidnee is there to try to save the people from possession. The people closest to her are the ones most in danger of possession so as a result she doesn't get close to many people. I liked Sidnee she also really grows in this story and starts to really grasp her future as an exorcist.

Milo is a police officer at the start of the story who suffers from real nightmares. When he sleeps any injury he receives is with him when he wakes up. He also has to wake up before he is killed in his dreams or he will die for real. I think that him not connecting with people may be the reason why I just didn't like him as much as the other two main characters. He was always looking for an opportunity to be a hero. The situations that he found himself in just felt a little forced and a little unbelievable even in this mad world.

As far as the plot of the story goes this was a very good slasher book (which I have never read one before) but in my opinion it was really good and introduced some new ideas to the slashing lifestyle. However when Milo was introduced I felt like the sci-fi part of the story went off the deep end. The gigantic spiders kind of blindsided me and later on the zombies. They were a good shock factor in this story but it didn't completely work for me. Sidnee the exorcist and Ford's storylines seemed to go together and complement each other well. I also loved Rubble's back story and just his general character through the story. You loved to hate him but later felt a little sorry for him after you hear his story. I will say this though I think Rubble could have his own story.

All in all this was a good book and it takes you on a wild ride. I recommend this book to anyone looking for something different or just looking for an escape from the real world. This town that the characters live in was a very eventful town and I am glad I do not live there. I would like to read the next book in the series.

When I heard about the link to Mad Moral I thought no way am I reading! And then I actually checked it out and I fell in love with it. My favourite character must be Harriet, she is a positive influence on Ford even though she doesn't know about his Slasher tendencies. The part in the end with Luke really threw me, I honestly thought it was Bravo. I also like it that there wasn't any grammar faults or spelling mistakes or even sentences that didn't make sense, it all flowed wonderfully. I don't know if its you amazing writing skills or maybe you just have an editor who can actually do the job. Great job! I have already read Mad Menace and Murder, so now I'm really looking forward to Book 4. Keep it up Kevin Anthony! And don't ever give up on your writing and if you have an Editor hold him/her close. You only get a handful who can really edit great novels like this one without changing anything!

Mad Moral, when I first read the summary of this book I told myself "No way!" it sounded like all blood and horror.The phrase don't judge a book by it's cover proves right with this one,Kevin dived into the mad world sucking you in with  him.He had  characters that had me laughing, smiling and frowning all at the same time.Mad Moral delivered a heavy introduction into the minds and lives of three main characters, a slasher, a dreamer and an exorcist.All three people victims of insanity in their own way or "madness" as the author describes.Ford Fischer, a young man in his twenties who battles his urges to slash.Ford has a roller-coaster life, dealing with a transexual father, a mother who does drugs, a soulful teddy bear and a serial-slasher.Throw in his neighbor Milo an ex-cop who suffers with a condition known as living-nightmares,and Sidnee an exorcist who battles demons trying to sabotage her love life. The lives these three  characters never get dull, Kevin gave the readers drama upon drama.The suspense and mystery behind every corner were definite page turners, the ending left much to be desired in my opinion...but that didn't stop the fact that Mad Moral was an awesome read and I recommend it too everyone.

This book  is it not limited to any specific age group, the writing is simple yet engaging.Their were a few minor errors, but with a bit of editing it should be fine.Reading it was definitely entertaining and I look forward too reading  the other two books in Kevin Anthony's mad series.On this note I want to share just a few of my favorite quotes from the book.

"The slasher has been slashed.”

"I'm in heaven, no you're in the hood"

“Sometimes you have to break the rules to help your friends.”

Review by: Broken Publications on May 26, 2012 :
Once I got past my OCD tendencies when it comes to reading, I enjoyed the story a great deal. This horror novel is definitely unique, with a unique set of characters as well as an interesting - and often surprising - plot. Kevin definitely takes his readers on a journey with his novel; a dark journey through the lives of several characters who are all connected.

Having said that, I'd like to go on to say that the spelling and grammar left a lot to be desired and made the book more difficult for me to read. Hiring a professional editor would help out a great deal with this novel and make it easier to read.

The book cover should communicate a piece of the plot somehow - right now it's pretty nondescript, which is a little disappointing. I went by the description, which is what ultimately had me wanting to read the book.

Overall, it's a great story and a fun book to read. I won't nitpick =). I loved how the events progressed throughout and how the characters developed, and especially that you could - as the reader - understand what the characters were going through.

Great job! I hope to read more from this author in the future.

I LOVE Mad Moral. I'm another wattpadder coming to show my love for the series. I've read the first two and even the short stories he deleted, but they were all good. I hope the series goes far and someday becomes big. This book is about everything even if you're not a fan of creepy stuff, you'll enjoy it

This book takes you into a world of a extreme paranormal, you'd never think you'd read a book like this.
While reading this book I found myself falling in love with the characters personalities and attitudes but at the same time loving the cruel intentions and deeds the characters pull. I'd suggest you read and find out yourself, This is worthy of 5 stars.

Review by: Kelvin Wells on May 16, 2012 :
I had the opportunity to read this book on wattpad and I adore it. It's hard to describe, because it's more than just an urban fantasy. It takes really big scenarios and make them seem believable and that's mainly because of the characters. It's as if friends you or recapping their day to you but from this...mad world. It deserves to be more than free. I enjoyed it.
