About Featured Book: Of Men and Dragons: Jack's Landing by Steven Hayen

Jack was having a very bad day. He'd been scouting the edges of the known galaxy when he'd crashed onto a planet at the beginning of its iron age. What was worse, the natives are seven-foot-tall carnivores who are faster, stronger, and every bit as clever as himself. The only saving grace was that they seemed too afraid to get close to his ship for some reason. Hopefully, that would hold true long enough for him to repair his ship and get home…

S'haar was having a very bad day. First, she'd gotten herself kicked out of the guard, then the hunters, and finally, she'd rejected the village lord's son. Now it was early winter, and she'd been tied to a stake to appease the new dragon that had made a fiery appearance last night.

The Winding (Time Corrector Series Book 1)

About The Winding (Time Corrector Series Book 1):

Morally complex, orphan, and absolute genius Vincent Abajian is hellbent to uncover all he can on Artificial Intelligence. His relentless pursuit distracts him from a traumatic childhood loss—his childhood best friend Akane was engulfed in a time-turbulence, a random rift in space and time.

But when a beautiful, temperamental, post-doctoral scientist, Emika Amari, joins his Center, everything changes. Vincent is convinced that Akane is inside the irresistible Emika. As they begin a life together, Vincent’s past and his connection with a time turbulence survivor challenge everything they’ve created and push them into a spiral of politics and conspiracy. Vincent’s silence to protect Emika threatens to tear them apart. Unknowingly, Emika is torn between what she wants and what Akane wants from her. With his newfound power, Vincent struggles with whether or not he should create another time-turbulence to free Emika from the grasp of Akane once and for all. But will tinkering with time be more destructive than anything he has ever encountered before?

Lothar the Lost by Richard R Lockwood

About Featured Book: Lothar the Lost by Richard R Lockwood

Lothar von Richthofen was the little brother of Manfred von Richthofen, known as the Red Baron in the Great War. Lothar was not as famous as his brother, but he was also an ace, shooting down 40 opponents over the Western Front. He was shot down and finished the war in a hospital.

After the war ended a time traveling expedition arrived from the future to prevent the next larger war. The new arrivals built their own military organization, Lothar was recruited into the Terran Fleet and began a new career. Through talent and luck he rose rapidly, becoming a power in a star spanning empire.

An error in judgment brought him into conflict with Fleet Admiral Kosciusko, resulting in his exile a thousand years into the past. That is where this story begins. With a shuttle and a laser rifle he must now make his way in the 10th century. If you think such an event is impossible you should note that the Quantum Theory of the Multiverse requires every possible thing or choice to be realized. This story must have happened in some timeline universe somewhere or somewhen.

This is a four volume story, the next three are in the pipeline.
My goal as an author is always entertainment. I try to keep things informative but not too much, I try to keep the dialog smart and amusing, and never let the story drag. Please give my book a try and I hope you enjoy the adventure.

About Primal Instinct:

The year is 2099. After going bankrupt trying to mitigate the climate disasters it failed to stop in time, the American government literally auctioned off huge portions of the country to rich corporations. The people living on these auctioned-off lands are basically serfs, wholly dependent on the wealthy for everything from food to a roof to steady employment. The blue-bloods’ favor is made all the more vital in the massive flooding and toxic environment rendered real by the climate crisis. The rich shamelessly exploit those below them, with their money protecting them from whatever crime they might commit. Freddie Molloy is a victim of this new pecking order. Mutated, cynical, and lonely, he holds no hope for the world he lives in. But all of that will change when he first hears a mermaid’s hypnotic song.

Parched by Anne Joyce

About Parched by Anne Joyce:

It’s the 2040’s and the world has become a more terrifying place than anyone could’ve foreseen. The country is recovering from a devastating nuclear war that has left much of the earth scourged and uninhabitable. Some billion-dollar corporations took advantage of the destruction by purchasing the rights to water and selling it back to the public at ridiculous prices.

Joshua Wyman and Maria Perez struggle to adapt to this new violent world where muggings and murder over water are a common occurrence. The new water barons assign an army of brutes called “Purifiers” to instill order, but when people start mysteriously vanishing, Joshua and Maria begin to wonder if the Purifiers are behind their disappearance.

When Maria receives a frantic email from a friend in danger, she learns of the water barons’ plans for the “indigents” who can’t afford water. She desperately searches for someone to share her dark secret with who might be able to help. When her information falls into the hands of a violent anarchist group, their beaten down, oppressed city must confront what its inhabitants have long since hinted about, but never dared to whisper.

About Kindred Transition:

Cedric, Katya, Nelson, Maurice and so many others all assumed that the Tipping Point had solved the problem of keeping out those who would trade freedom and liberty for the pestilence of enforced equality.

A Kindred race known as the Sha’Fosswan, the last race to endure their own transition, has been sent to mentor the Kindred of Earth through this tumultuous time, an extreme division of souls. The transition is a time of division and tyranny in the last war of good vs evil, a time of dystopian misery and successful revolutions that every world must endure. It’s Earth’s turn. The Kindred, those chosen to endure the transition with the aid of their mentors, are about to discover the strength of character they never knew they had, and the terrible depths of evil that can devour the human soul.

Burnout

About Burnout:

Cutter Dunn was born a ghost.

Unchipped and unregistered, he exists as a nonperson, living off-the-grid, unrecognized by the facial recognition software built into every smart glass device that provides everyone with everything they want and need. According to the official system, he doesn’t even exist.

He has the skills and out-of-the-box perspective to design the nuts-and-bolts mechanism for the next generation of driverless shipping vehicles. He’s also the kind of person that a massively wealthy and corrupt corporation can exploit and make disappear without a trace. For good measure, they also erased his home settlement of Amenity, bulldozing the dwellings, scattering the residents. And that was their big mistake.

Because Cutter knows they can’t track what they can’t trace. And they won’t know what he’s planning until it hits them.

Burnout is a new stand-alone science fiction thriller by masters of storytelling, Sean Platt and Johnny B. Truant. If you like movies like Falling Down and Snatch, then you’ll love Burnout.
