About My Book

The only way mortician Ben Zigler can save his loved ones from a monstrous new crime boss is by using the solemn, secretive world of the funeral business to steal priceless artifacts for the same man who threatens to kill the only woman he’s ever loved and burn his family’s funeral home to the ground.

Where Does Your Support Go?

My publisher (Manuscripts Press) gave me a publishing team to help me produce and launch my book. I am working with…

• A revisions editor, copy editor, and proofreader this Spring to further hone my book (when you buy a ticket for my launch, you’ll get early excerpts and access to earlier versions of my manuscript!)
• A marketing specialist to coach and support me in marketing efforts, and help me reach new audiences
• A cover artist and layout editor will be designing my book. (The mockups you see currently are a placeholder!)

I am also offering some exclusive rewards for people who buy a ticket to my book launch:

• All tickets include either a physical copy (softcover, paperback) or digital copy (ebook) when I publish and a handwritten thank-you note.
• Your name will appear in the Acknowledgments section of my book (“with Special Thanks to”).

• You will receive early access to the Introduction and some excerpts from my book, with the opportunity to review it and give me early feedback.

• And more!

Author Bio

Ryan Rex grew up a “Latch-key Kid” somewhere between Gen-X and the Millennials, an experience that heavily informs his gritty, character-driven fiction. He is a survivor of a chaotic childhood, finding his way through self-exploration, discipline, and finally, writing. By day, Ryan is a fourth-generation master plumber who runs his own family business. By night, he delves into the world of American Dysfunction, blending his real-world experiences with a dark, dystopian imagination. His writing explores themes of power, family dysfunction, and the cost of survival in a broken world. American Dysfunction: Prince of Death is the culmination of his trilogy, bringing to a climactic close the saga of ordinary people struggling for dignity against a new, lawless world order. Ryan lives in Montgomeryville, PA, with his wife, Lauren, and their family.
