London, 1775. Books have always been Dorcas Turton’s refuge—but now they may be her salvation.

SHAMANESS – The Silent Seer by C. C. Jirón

Born into a harshly primitive world with scarce resources, Kreya is blessed with an extraordinary gift – she can see and know things others cannot – things that are concealed or yet to come. But her gift comes with a curse in the form of a physical disability that renders her mute. Her community rejects her as a useless misfit. She is allowed to survive only because her deep affinity with plants and animals, combined with her uncanny healing and psychic talents, convince her grandmother to train her as the next Shamaness. Her grandfather finds a way to help her communicate which she shares with her forbidden love. Yet, the bullying against her intensifies. Horrified by her growing sense of imminent tragedy, she tries to warn the village, but is blamed for a murder she did not commit, and banished. She narrowly escapes with her life and reinvents herself far across the mountains. Decades later, as a revered but aging Shamaness, she must return and confront those whispering ghosts of her past, despite the frightening visions of her own funeral pyre.

Devil Buffalo: A Seph Vermillion Western Adventure by David Fitz-Gerald

KINDLE COUNTDOWN DEAL – 99 cent sale

A raging turf war spreads across the prairie. The Deatherage outfit is tangled in its bloody path.

This is Seph Vermillion’s third trip up the trail. Now he’s the wrangler. The horses are as wild as the longhorns, and a rogue stallion is determined to steal them. Seph must break the mustangs, keep them from bolting, and defend them from a relentless theif. Without a strong remuda, the drive is doomed.

Rival gangs of hide hunters have driven a buffalo herd into a deadly frenzy that threatens to engulf everything in its wake. Each outfit fights to claim the most skins while driving the others away. Every hunter dreams of felling the notorious Devil Buffalo. A ruthless buffalo assassin is on a mission to wipe them out.

About the moment when a survivor realizes: I won. I didn’t know justice felt this good. This is closure. This is the next step.
Written by Pam Betts and inspired by real experiences, R.A.P.E.D. offers hope to anyone who’s ever felt silenced, strength to those still fighting, and proof that survivors can reclaim their stories.
“I won, I didn’t know justice felt this good.”, Erica’s journey is just beginning.

The 4S Project: Floor One by Marshall Armstrong

This is book 1 of a 7-book series. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

In the year 2119 the human race started a population decline due to a vaccine that was invented rendering individuals sterile. This drug became so widespread that almost everyone between the ages of 18 and 57 has opted to take the vaccine.

In 2150, Armachez Inc. created a widely accepted, and highly encouraged, process of matching up individuals into pairs for propagation, work, and family lineage. This is commonly referred to as “The Whole Seven Floors.” Individuals must be DNA matched with at least one other ‘participant’ to be accepted into the program. The process is completed through a seven-floor interactive program where individuals have the opportunity to interact with others hoping to find a match. This program takes place at one of the many 4S compounds around the world.

Can an insecure guy full of self-doubt find a match in this program? Follow this group of participants as they navigate friendships, controversy, morality and love while trying to complete The Whole Seven Floors.

Mules; Masters & Mud by G.J. Griffiths

WARNING! This book may contain NUTS! (Non-Uniform Text Speech)
In other words speech in what some have called “Olde English Vernacular”. It is spoken by characters in the book from the North, the Midlands and the South of England. There is a glossary at the end of the book to help if you can rise to the challenge. It adds shades of colour to this 19th century story that you may not be expecting.
When Mrs Alexander wrote about “the rich man in his castle, the poor man at his gate” and declared that “God made them, high or lowly, and order’d their estate” in the ever popular hymn All Things Bright and Beautiful, she was probably reflecting one of the mores of the times. It would fit in well with prejudices and beliefs of the middle and upper classes that paternalism had indeed been intended by God, thus laws protecting the workers in their fields, mills and factories were not necessary. In the words of Browning so long as “God’s in his heaven, all’s right with the world!”
The continuing story of the Quarry Bank Runaways is about what happened to two cotton apprentices over three decades during the Industrial Revolution; first as qualified young men with hopes and later when they are full grown. By the start of the Victorian period the fates and their ambitions would have collided. Serious events and incidents, both personal and national, were about to impinge upon the lives of Thomas Priestley and Joseph Sefton, who had earlier run away from their apprentice master, Samuel Greg. What would cause a qualified mule spinner to give up his comparatively safe job and risk failure, ridicule or destitution? Ambitious and determined working class individuals like Tommy and Joe had to carefully step through a pathway involving love, loyalty and legal persecution and prejudice, from within the social hierarchy of the times.

Thomas Priestley and Joseph Sefton were skinny teenage boys, paupers, taken from their mothers as small children to live in the Apprentice House and work in the cotton mill in Quarry Bank, Cheshire. Injured and desperate they sneaked out from the mill in 1806 to walk 200 miles to London in order to see their mothers in Hackney workhouse. They did see them but it was after a week of adventures and, after an appearance in Middlesex Courthouse, where they were charged with breaking their indentures to cotton king – Samuel Greg.

About Featured Book: The Great Dane by Suanne Laqueur

On sale for $2.99 until February 1, 2026

After the sudden death of his only child, Liko Greenman is looking for any way to pass, waste or kill time. He becomes obsessed with a compelling mystery within his son’s favorite video game, Three Hares, and is determined to solve it. The game travels along the Old Silk Road, following the triskelion motif of the Three Hares in art and architecture. The player’s journey ends abruptly at Paderborn Cathedral in Germany, but fans are certain the game isn’t over.

Liko receives a condolence letter from the gaming company, with a single clue that leads him to the rural town of Birch Island, New York and a farm called Schoenfeld’s. There, Liko comes face-to-face with Danelaw Strong, who has one blue eye, one brown eye, and a compelling, dual personality.

For 22 years, Dane was intimately involved with Ethan Hasen, the creator of Three Hares, and Ethan’s wife, Nomi. As three deeply bonded lovers, they made a life together at Schoenfeld’s that defied convention. Now only Dane is left to work the farm, a single hare grieving the loss of soulmates and simply concentrating on doing the next thing.

Recognizing they’re both killing time and each has something to give the other, Liko agrees to move to Schoenfeld’s for the summer and Dane will guide him in solving the video game’s mystery. So begins a journey of friendship, love and belonging that will show Liko there’s more to the Three Hares game and more to Danelaw Strong than he could possibly imagine.

Suanne Laqueur’s newest novel is a chimerical blend of romance, drama, identity, power and hope. Combining legend and folklore with her signature depth and understanding of the human experience, The Great Dane explores how we view the most profound human connection in pairs, when three is often love’s most magical number.
