About Allen

Allen Kensington is the bestselling author of Preternaturals: A Superhero Thriller, which is available on the Amazon Kindle.  The story is the culmination of his life-long interest in the superheroes, starting with the old Spider-Man and Super Friends cartoons from his childhood.  Of course, his interests don't stop there, and he is currently working on other books which mix the best elements of the science fiction, fantasy, and thriller genres.

Allen grew up in a small farming community outside of Fort Wayne, Indiana.  The rural landscape helped to nurture his interest in reading, particularly science fiction/fantasy novels and non-fiction about ghosts and cryptids. These early favorites continue to shape his work, and you can expect to see more of them in future books.

He attended Indiana University, majoring in such varying subjects as folklore, film, and anthropology.  Spending a few of those years making short, no-budget monster movies, Allen learned the basics of filmmaking and storytelling.  Between wrangling his pet iguana for cinematic greatness and spray-painting giant mushroom costumes, his tastes in fiction were strengthened and expanded.

Allen currently works at a small, liberal arts college.  He sincerely hopes that you enjoy his work, and that you will be so kind as to rate/review it on Amazon or your favorite fiction review website.  He thanks you for reading, and strives to bring you more stories that prove thrilling and entertaining.
