Sir Differel Van Helsing #5
Shenanigans
Sir Differel and Lady Margaret--aka Dribble and Maggot--are best frenemies, though why even they don't know. Despite a facade of antagonism that can make it appear that they are ready to scratch each others' eyes out at any moment, they respect and trust each other, they confide secrets they won't tell anyone else, and they each help the other when necessary, whether it be working on a school project or fighting monsters.
Dribble and Maggot share frequent visits, usually consisting of sleepovers at Differel's ancestral manor. During one of those, Maggot encourages Dribble to lose her virginity, and when she expresses reluctance, they sneak into the buttery off the butler's pantry to steal a bottle of liquor. However, to avoid being caught they must hide out in the catacombs under the house. There, Maggot reveals the real reason for her visit: she fears she may be pregnant.
However, they soon discover they have worse problems, when they are attacked by a horde of goblin-like creatures and become trapped, unable to flee. And no one knows where they're at!
Can they survive long enough to be rescued, or will the goblins drag them back to their secret lair to subject them to unspeakable acts?

About the author
Kevin L. O'Brien
71 books22 followersKevin L. O'Brien was born with a pen in his hand.
Well, not quite, but he has been writing for as long as he can remember, at least since First Grade. Writing has always been his first, true love, but it hasn't always been his career. He worked for 15 years as a biomedical researcher, then for 3 years as a web designer. However, after 35 years of trying to be published in print with little success, he has decided to try his hand at self-publishing. Most of his works will be sold as ebooks through Smashwords, Kindle, and Kobe, but he also plans to make some available for free here on Goodreads.
He writes primarily speculative fiction -- fantasy, science fiction, horror, and their sub-genres -- but he also likes to try his hand at thrillers, suspense, mystery, and even westerns. However, his stories tend to have a fantasy element, no matter how subtle.
Most of his stories involve the following three main characters:
Medb hErenn (http://www.medbherenn.com/) -- One-time queen of Ireland, she is over 3500 years old. A warrior and a sorceress, she cannot be harmed by any weapon made by the hand of man.
Eile and Sunny, Team Girl (http://www.teamgirlforever.com/) -- They are two adorable, vivacious, fun-loving young women whose motto is ONWARD TO ADVENTURE!!! Yet trouble follows them like a love-sick puppy wherever they go.
Sir Differel Van Helsing (http://www.sir-differel.com/) -- The descendent of Abraham Van Helsing and King Arthur, she heads the Caerleon Order, the premier monster-hunting organization of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth. She commands Dracula, the most powerful vampire extant, and the greatsword Caliburn, better known as Excalibur.
He also writes a series of sword & sorcery tales set in an alternative universe known as the Lands of the Dreams of Men.
Kevin lives in Denver with his family and 4 cats.
