Promise of a Monster Killer
Promise of a Monster Killer David Phifer
Some pasts do more than just haunt you. Some pasts can kill.
Solomon Ivy owns a bloody track record of killing monsters. He’s the most ruthless stone-cold killer you’ll ever meet. With magic in one hand, a gun in the other, there hasn’t been a beast he’s failed to take down.
The only thing better than burying evil is seeing the look in its eyes when you’re shoveling dirt on its face. The one rule that keeps a hunter alive is to keep moving forward and never look back.
But when Ivy's past finally catches up to him, he has unfinished business to take care of. A promise to honor. And a monster to kill.

Sounds great.
I love the voice of the main character, gruff, rough around the edges, and has seen more of life and death than many! I can't wait to read more of his adventure!
Who doesn't like a monster killer with a dodgy past. Intriguing.
I love this monster killer / kindred spirit, indeed. Awesome! 😊
Good premise, Dave. We need more monster killers.
Innocents, Immortals, and Amoral Gods
Innocents, Immortals, and Amoral Gods Harry Dehrian
The invention of Qu-drive and Qu-Ducts has allowed mortals to travel faster-than-light and to colonize nearby planetary systems. But on the planet Kannari, a gruesomely mutilated body of an elite is found. And on the enigmatic planet of Mosaar, where the sun rises and sets in the same direction, Governor Jaas aided by something supernatural makes schemes sinister. Moreover, visions of an ethereal entity plague the mortals of Amestra Nuvo, who themselves phase between the planes of reality.
In this galactic adventure, the rival planetary systems vie for supremacy; the powerful manipulate the masses; hyper-intelligent minds and mechanical bots aid mortals; warriors wear self-learning enhanced bodysuits.

Beyond The Shining Portals Chapters 1-5. Charles N Palmer
Jack Brennan is scared. Bounty hunters are combing London for runaway factory apprentices and it’s only a matter of time before they corner him.
Worse still, his sister has just sent a message. A drunken nobleman has stolen an amulet, a blood-red spider encased in amber. He and his brother must get it back.
By contrast, his older brother Billy is full of confidence. He introduces Jack to a young theatre make-up artist and the brothers become adept at disguises. Billy promises his sister they will retrieve the amulet.
They devise a plan to carry this out in the busy Mercers’ Tavern. Little do they know that one of the men playing cards with the nobleman is the time traveller who intends to kill them both.
But they have been set up. The tavern is swarming with bounty hunters. The brothers retrieve the amulet and Jack escapes with it but Billy is caught. Next day, he is sentenced to death. Jack has seventy-two hours to save him.

Red Desert - Point of No Return
Red Desert - Point of No Return Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
Anna left at dawn.
She entered the Martian desert, all alone.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.
The Awakening
The Awakening David Phifer

Read your copy of The Awakening today, before your own darkness breaks free. Trust me, it won't be pretty...

Signature
Signature Ron Sanders
Signature is a surreal sci-fi romp through a government-falsified future history.
Astronomer Titus Mack unearths a secret that entirely redefines our notions of time and space:
the ability to observe past events as waveprints—electromagnetic vibrations encoded in our
atmosphere, decoded and saved by his equipment, and played back as audiovisual records,
using his observatory as a real-time theater.
Mack and three colleagues watch the actual history of Western civilization unfold, learning of a
cover-up that radically changed the world.
That’s the kickoff to a wild ride, an adventure sweeping these four men into a hell of madness
and revelation, and demonstrating to thinking readers once and for all that Signature rocks.
Those given to relishing quality prose work will be especially rewarded.

Interesting concept, like the sound of this one.
This sounds hilarious. I can't wait to read it.
This cover and summary are really engaging! I'm definitely going to check this out.
There’s always someone out there who likes what another does but finding them is indeed a stretch. Truth be told, they actually find you.
Sounds like a very interesting story. I love superheroes so this sounds like it would be right up my alley! Caught in the middle of what is right/wrong and what needs to be done. I got goosebumps!

Vietnam was Hell, and this story brings readers into the heart of the jungle to experience what our brave men in uniform endured during that horrific eight - year - old conflict.
Martin E. Silenus shares his humorous essays about what the way life should be for a hard working male. Not too long, not too short, and definitely entertaining. Reading this is like having a beer and venting with your buddies. Ah, good times!
This sounds like the kind of story that belongs on the big screen because upheavals like these are visually amazing. That's why I want to read it. I want to see if it's a brain workout for the imagination to add those visuals.
This series looks so cool! It may be the next series I didn't realize I needed in my life. Looking forward to checking it out.
I love the cover and title. Cool.

Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon...
Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon-transcending Magimal Weiqi Wang
This is the first book of a teen fantasy book series that nurtures the bloom of MAGIC in the soil of SCIENCE - something rarely attempted. The transition from magic to science will be bit by bit, so the early books do read like a "mainstream" magic fantasy.
Soarame has a pair of special eyes. He can see magic elements in this world, which are supposed to be invisible. This enviable gift of his could reveal the truth of the world, but it also puts him in danger.
Many animals in this world possess magic power, so they are called “magimals” - dragons as examples. Soarame fortunately got a baby magimal as his best friend, but they got into troubles together - troubles that were a lot bigger than dragons.
Could they survive?

Return to Lemuria
Return to Lemuria Richard Gradner
Billy Bayer is taken prisoner by the descendants of the Lemurian civilisation after conspiring against his mob-boss. He is taught how to tap into his extra-sensory powers and his life changes forever. This newfound power gives Billy the courage to confront his captors and challenge their age-old ideals.
Together with his crew of loyal companions, he devises a plan to thwart the organisation’s very existence. But how can one man stand up to a 12,000-year old prophecy that predicts adversity for all mankind?
The answer is hidden deep in the Brazilian Amazonia with anthropologist Dr David Steel, who, together with the FUNAI Foundation, is on a mission to save the endangered tribes from persecution. It’s his research that appears to contain the key to the survival of the human race.

Green Unpleasant Land
Green Unpleasant Land Matt Thomas
Green Unpleasant Land, Lovecraftian shenanigans in Victorian London.
Fog shrouded Victorian London, but not the 1888 we’d recognise. There’s a whiff of revolution in the air, not to mention lycanthropy in the shires. As Mr Eiffel’s tower nears completion in Hyde Park, famed Egyptologist Sir Percy Tiverton returns with his latest find — a nameless book so mysterious not even the Royal College of Alchemists can decipher its runes.
Alexander Faversham is England’s foremost champion of derring-do, but his legend is built on sand. Loyal-to-a-fault manservant Bill might know more about his master’s heroics than either are letting on. When the nameless book is stolen, Bill’s entanglement threatens to bring his carefully constructed façade crashing down.
There’s something nasty lurking in the shadows and it wants its book back. Who would dare confront the tentacles slithering from the sewers? When the Empire needs a hero, it doesn’t always get the one it expects.

I wrote this to save the universe, but it wasn't my idea. This was an assignment from Bob, who may be God. Bob made me do this. The only choice I had was what to write about, so I'm telling you about the woman I love and the first time we saved the universe. This means telling you about every time we saved the universe in between the day we met until the end of this book, at which point we'll save the universe again, if everything goes according to plan, which it rarely does.
If you enjoy a little chaos, a little time inside the squishy maze of a human brain, a little taste of emotionally compromised writing, you may want to read this exercise in confusion. I can’t promise you’ll enjoy my musings or rants or punchlines, but I can promise you this: Life is a run-on sentence.

That title alone made me laugh. Can't wait to dive into this one!
Splendid book for fans of off-the-wall humor.
A crafty writer that knows how to surprise the reader yet supply them with a satisfying conclusion.
The first couple of lines got me hooked
Sounds Vonnegut-esque. As he's my favorite, I'm sure this'll be a blast.

Lieutenant General Javier Cadiz Meade has served his country for decades, navigating war zones and shadowy corridors of power.
