If There Be Giants [preview]
If There Be Giants [preview] Ellison Blackburn
Amidst the ruins of an ancient stone circle, a team of archaeologists uncovers a strange creature that should not exist.
Reviving afresh an age-old battle, the discovery pits science against religion—enough perhaps to shake the beliefs of the millions who would count themselves as supporters of either faction.
To make matters worse, the lead on the project, Dr. Mallory Jacks, falls in love with the one man who has all the answers. Only Grey McKnight doesn’t know it. With each passing day, the upheaval surrounding the findings threatens to shatter their lives into countless surreal pieces.

Ellison Blackburn’s protagonist is eminently relatable, and the mess of issues Charley faces in trying to make peace between her desires and her responsibilities will be shockingly familiar to many readers. Set in the near future, the story explores cutting-edge theories in both prosthetics and biology, while the level of psychological detail brings a realistic edge to the narrative and the characters spring vividly to life. Flash Back is well-written, with an analytical, laser-focus on the workings of inter-personal connections. If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and thought that there must be something better in life, then this book is definitely for you.
Smart fantasy featuring smart women! An intellectual Indiana Jones with a female protagonist.
These stories take you deep into new worlds and hold you there until you finish. A perfect escape from our too-serious world. Leaves you looking for more by this author...

Last Night Of The Collective
Last Night Of The Collective Wesley Britton
For countless millennia, Beta-Earth was cursed with the Plague-With-No-Name, the genetic disease that killed three out of every four male infants their first year.
Now, the cure has been found. It was in the combined DNA of Malcolm Renbourn of Alpha-Earth and his wife, Sesperia Thorwaif Renbourn, the mutant with the genetically-enhanced DNA that gave her astonishing mental and physical abilities.
Then, the cure was stolen. Agents from the amoral and power-hungry royal house of Hitalec raided the island headquarters of the Collective and removed the only copy of the precious files.
How can Sasperia and the head of the Collective recover the cure without having to negotiate with the corrupt royals?

Tardy Bells and Witches' Spells PREVIEW: Wom...
Tardy Bells and Witches' Spells PREVIEW: Womby's School for Wayward Witches Sarina Dorie
Nerdy high school outcast, CLARISSA LAWRENCE, has always felt like she didn’t belong in this world. More than anything, she wants magic to be real—and not just because she’s obsessed with Harry Potter and tries to go to Narnia by reading fantasy novels in her wardrobe. Yet, when she stumbles upon real magic, and fairy tales come true, she doesn’t expect to be the evil villain in her own story.
Clarissa learns she’s descended from an evil witch and is destined to kill her older sister. When she meets a cute boy who offers to train her in magic, she must make a choice. She can have a safe, normal life and no harm will come to anyone. Or she can choose magic and risk everything and everyone she loves in order to be what she’s always known she was meant to be . . . a wicked witch.

Sarina Dorie's The Memory Thief is perhaps not all that probable, but a fun romp through an off-world steampunk romance with fascinatingly elaborate plotting.

I downloaded this book as something to read over my lunch break and completely fell in love! I found the characers so wonderful and believable. The world-building is just amazing! I definitely will be looking up the rest of the Womby's School for Wayward Witches books!

Jaydon: A Dawn Saga Short Story
All of Us Were Sophie
All of Us Were Sophie Resa Nelson
A traditional murder mystery with a high-tech twist.
Sophie Rippetoe has a problem. Trapped by a killer with no way out, she desperately uses a new and untested machine to make copies of herself--even though she knows the process will destroy her. Her three exact duplicates, complete with Sophie's life experience and memories, must evade not only the killer but being discovered by the rest of the world.
There's one stumbling block: the duplication process destroys short-term memory. The duplicates can't remember the past few weeks of the original Sophie's life. Knowing this before copying herself, Sophie set up clues about the preceding days that might help her duplicates identify the killer.
Unless the killer finds them first.

I loved this story! It drew me in and hooked me. I stayed up late reading it. Astrid’s character while starting out thinking she’s a monster and unsure of her past, comes to love and appreciate herself. In her quest to save the survivors of her village, she learns the truth of her past, and must come to terms with it and make the choice of who she wants to be. She’s strong, courageous, and vulnerable—all the things a good heroine needs to be. I look forward to reading the next story in the series.
Strong characters and great story!
This looks intense! Just the type of read I love diving into!! I'm excited to find out more. :) I love the cover as well. :)
Fantastic cover and intriguing synopsis. Excited to find out more...
This cover catches my eye every time. I can't wait to dive into this book!

A riveting premise - beautiful surroundings turned into horrific outcomes. Don't read this late at night...
Sandman is the kind of tale I remembering reading in The Haunted House type of stories. A fantastic read that will keep you wondering until the end.

Everyone heard the UFOs arrive.
Some thought the noises in the sky were jets.
Others thought it was thunder.
Only one person knew the truth.
Giant islands in the sky, hovering over the tiny California town.
Everybody feared what would happen next. They had good reason.
Terrible beams, red and green. Birds falling from the sky. People’s lives thrown into chaos as the town’s darkest secrets are revealed.
Murder, death, destruction.
Then the vanishings.
The town is destroyed.
Out of the carnage, a handful of survivors emerge. A sheriff desperate to protect. A traumatized ten-year-old boy and his black Labrador. A feisty redheaded girl with an attitude.
Can they find safety?
Can they figure out what this advanced alien race wants?
Can they get their people, and their planet, back?

The Society of Two Houses
The Society of Two Houses William C. Tracy
**Book Preview**
Murder, Mystery, and Magic:
Mandamon Feldo is scheduled to meet a high-profile diplomat, but instead finds the diplomat dead in a pool of blood on the floor of his office. Even worse, the diplomat had been holding a list of the members of The Society of Two Houses, a secret organization existing inside the maji. An organization to which Mandamon belongs.
If the list gets out, the Society—which brings innovation and new technology to the Nether— may crumble under the weight of the secrets it holds. Often, the ends are seen to justify the means when developing new ideas, and the Society has done its share of cleaning up ‘accidents.’ Before the murderer releases the information, Mandamon must figure out who would kill the diplomat and betray The Society of Two Houses.

The Gilded King
The Gilded King Josie Jaffrey
In the Blue, the world’s last city, all is not well.
Julia is stuck within its walls. She serves the nobility from a distance until she meets Lucas, who believes in fairytales that her world can’t accommodate. The Blue is her prison, not her castle, and she’d escape into the trees if she didn’t know that contamination and death awaited humanity outside.
But not everyone in the Blue is human, and not everyone can be contained.
Beyond the city’s boundaries, in the wild forests of the Red, Cameron has precious little humanity left to lose. As he searches for a lost queen, he finds an enemy rising that he thought long dead. An enemy that the humans have forgotten how to fight.
One way or another, the walls of the Blue are going to come down.

Deliverance at Van Demon’s Deep
Deliverance at Van Demon’s Deep S. P. Stevens
How far does camaraderie stretch, when it’s life and death?
Demon’s Deep mine is out of action. The miners are missing, and psychotic savages—The Unbound—have taken it over. Unfortunately, where the Unbound go, bad magic follows. Magic which mutates living things, and liquefies rock.
Kiprik, long suffering leader of his elite snatch squad, must rescue the miners before army commanders run out of patience and start pumping poison gas. With his meat-headed corporal and loyal friend Stack at his side, he’ll face up to any threat, and stick an axe in its face, so long as the sneering Padre Brax doesn’t get in the way.
But this is a task which will see Kiprik and his crew going to the very bottom of the mine, where the deepest magic and the darkest truths lurk.

Aladdin's Neti Pot
Aladdin's Neti Pot Sarina Dorie
Allergy season is a nightmare—especially when you use a magic lamp instead of a neti pot to clear the sinuses as Mr. Burns does in this fractured fairy tale.
Sarina Dorie's The Memory Thief is perhaps not all that probable, but a fun romp through an off-world steampunk romance with fascinatingly elaborate plotting.

I loved this story! It drew me in and hooked me. I stayed up late reading it. Astrid’s character while starting out thinking she’s a monster and unsure of her past, comes to love and appreciate herself. In her quest to save the survivors of her village, she learns the truth of her past, and must come to terms with it and make the choice of who she wants to be. She’s strong, courageous, and vulnerable—all the things a good heroine needs to be. I look forward to reading the next story in the series.
Strong characters and great story!
This looks intense! Just the type of read I love diving into!! I'm excited to find out more. :) I love the cover as well. :)
Fantastic cover and intriguing synopsis. Excited to find out more...

Anti Life
Anti Life Allen Kuzara
The opposite of life isn't death; it's something far worse.
In an anarcho-capitalist future, space-based corporate settlements have replaced the State. Colonel John Alvarez, a fifteen-year veteran, is unwilling to waste more years leading missions into deep space. He wants to start over and make a new life with his wife and son.
But when a distress message from a distant research probe is received, Novos Corp reactivates Alvarez's contract. He must carry out one last mission, a rescue attempt. Unknown to Alvarez, however, is the hidden threat that awaits him, one that—if he cannot stop it—will doom humanity to a fate worse than death.

I picked this up to write a blurb then couldn't put it down! Really good SF about a future where Statists and Corporations are at war. It has a detailed and interesting outer space setting, an original take on warp speed and likeable characters. Great stuff.
Cool title, cool cover!
A terrifying sci-fi tromp through an uncomfortably possible reality.
Great descriptions and an unexpected ending.
Sounds so good! Can’t wait to read this one!
I love this theme!!! What could be better than a space-based anarcho-capitalist future! Giddy up!

This is the first dragon story that really appealed to me. The interaction between Dauria and Graayyya is believable and heart-warming. The story has just the right amount of plot-driven suspense and character-driven emotion. Now I'm going back for Book 1 and look forward to whatever comes next.
Love dragons. Looking forward to reading this.
I love everything about this. First off, let's talk about that cover. It's gorgeous. I want it on my virtual shelf. But the premise of "Betrayal" is even more interesting. "See through the eyes of dragons in this thrilling epic fantasy adventure." SOLD, right there. Everything about this sounds great, so what are you waiting for?
