UPROAR Michael W. Huard
Young Brin lived on the streets; struggling to survive in the 31st Century. She simply did her job; prepping food for a clan of individual's clinging together in New York.
Though in truth, she liked to fight; she had a little rebel in her; some tomboy. By chance one day, she heard of a legendary Sisterhood of powerful strong-willed woman; those who were out to bring freedom back to the land. It would be so amazing to be part of something like that she thought; she had a dream and set out to find it.
Suddenly her life took a turn for craziness; kidnapped and nearly operated on by some odd altering, cybernetic project; everything now changed.
Brin had a purpose; she would never let another young girl suffer such an atrocity.
It was her chance to make a difference. This is her story!

BLOODLINES: The League of Twelve
BLOODLINES: The League of Twelve K, Matthews N. Fishfish
What's your sign? What if your birth sign was more than a cliché blurb in the newspaper? What if, instead, you were fated to inherit supernatural powers and the responsibility of safeguarding otherworldly beings?
Sebastian Shea, a new member of The League of Twelve, has always known he would inherit the Cancer astral key from his father and use it to open a portal to another world. What he doesn’t know is what will be waiting for him when he returns home.
Attacked by Marcus, his father’s identical twin, and left for dead, Sebastian knows his only chance to live long enough to regain his key and take revenge is to make it to the City of Radiance.
Will Sebastian survive to get retribution? Will the other league members rally in time or will Marcus take even more from them?

A daunting task of astrology meets speculation, not in abstract, like Aleister Crowley once did, but in everydaylife words we all can understand! K, Matthews and N. Fishfish go for their very own, unique blend of the literal and the symbolical about the 12 astrological houses aka star signs, and embed it into their own alternative reality. There seems to be loads of thrill, the kind, which only proverbial reading between the lines, comparing, if authors and readers come to the same conclusions, can deliver! Splendid idea.
I love this take on the zodiac signs and how they gift magic and open portals! Such an intriguing concept -- can't wait!
Cool premise. Love the cover.

Riveting. A portal to another world. If you like fantasy and magical realism, "Bloodlines" will be right up your alley!

The House of Lazerin is filled with secrets - the kind that end in ruin.
Elivya wants what every noble son takes for granted: strength, respect, and the right to wield a blade. But her duty to her House has always come first, and the only way to save her family from ruin is to accept the role she was born into. Go to Court. Find a husband. Produce an heir.
Within the castle's marble halls, secrets are currency and new courtiers are a form of sport. Her mother's unconventional lessons keep Elivya one step ahead of the competition, but playing the game of courtship is not without its risks. The capital is full of spies and some are playing for much higher stakes than hearts and reputations. A single misstep can destroy a noble House - or a nation.

These nuns are doing God’s work in a less traditional way.
Following the death of her father, Hennie goes off the rails. An attempted murder leads her into a life of poverty, chastity, and obedience. At least, that's what she appears to be doing.
Hennie may be wearing a black veil, but her loyalties to God start with the women of her coven. She and her fellow sisters aren't just teaching bible school. They are ridding the world of evil one exorcism at a time.
If prayers are ineffective, the members of this convent will cast spells instead. Hennie's natural inclination to magic makes her an asset to the coven, but when the devil takes notice, the witches will need more than hexes to ward him off.

D for Daisy
D for Daisy Nick Aaron
During World War II a Lancaster landed at its base in England after bombing Berlin, and a member of the crew was carried off dead. His young wife Daisy soon found out that he had been murdered. But she was only a woman, blonde and pretty, and blind since birth: so who was going to listen to her? In the mayhem of the bombing campaign, who even cared? She would have to find the murderer on her own.
I love the 1964 blind heroine crossing paths with a blind woman from ancient Rome, who has left a message 1900 years earlier. Two strong, brave women trying to do the right thing and stay alive, plus ancient Rome and political intrigues there, plus a mysterious message to decipher -- how could this fail as a recipe for fun, enthralling reading. Thank you, Nick Aaron, for writing The Desiderata Stone.
Nick Aaron's "D is for Daisy" starts with a compelling write-up--a blind woman is the only one on the trail of a murderer. A fascinating way to touch off a WWII thriller--a promising premise for a page-turner!
This sounds very intriguing!

"Division" is an amazing rhyme between unity and necessity. I love the mutal "special" concept both genders share, as well as the philosophy of both being eventually better together. Excellent!
On the money!

If your sibling had a super power, would you be envious or proud?
Would you accept an invitation to help save an entire race from extinction by opening a magic portal for them? And most importantly, can you keep a secret?
Rejected as a League member long ago, Marcus Shea is plotting to destroy The League of Twelve and gain control of the portal for himself. He freed a demon from nearly a century’s entombment to aid him, but now the demon has witches and geist on his side and his own destructive agenda.
The Immortals who govern The League of Twelve decided to grant three of their siblings the ability to enhance each faction leader’s abilities and aid them in their battles.

A daunting task of astrology meets speculation, not in abstract, like Aleister Crowley once did, but in everydaylife words we all can understand! K, Matthews and N. Fishfish go for their very own, unique blend of the literal and the symbolical about the 12 astrological houses aka star signs, and embed it into their own alternative reality. There seems to be loads of thrill, the kind, which only proverbial reading between the lines, comparing, if authors and readers come to the same conclusions, can deliver! Splendid idea.
I love this take on the zodiac signs and how they gift magic and open portals! Such an intriguing concept -- can't wait!
Cool premise. Love the cover.

The Hooman Probe by C. C. Brower
The Hooman Probe by C. C. Brower Living Sensical
When Sue crash-lands back on Earth, she didn't know what to expect. What she found was a telepathic wolf pack, capable of reasoning and the dominant life form on the planet. They were in a fight for survival with the feral species of wolves, as well as the remnants of humankind.
In the first part of this, Sue learns to communicate and to travel with the pack as they fight and escape from the hunting ferals. In doing so, she fights alongside Tig, the hunting pack leader, to save both their lives.
What she wanted was to get back to the moon base to rescue her family. She didn't know how bad the collapse was.
But before she can get anywhere, she has to prove to the sentient wolf pack that she can be trusted. This means a "probe." Something no human has survived.

"Division" is an amazing rhyme between unity and necessity. I love the mutal "special" concept both genders share, as well as the philosophy of both being eventually better together. Excellent!

"...one of our best exponents of hardcore SF adventure" - Daily Mail
Teijouan was a prosperous island-nation until the Event. Now it's a post-apocalyptic wilderness rendered uninhabitable by a ‘derangement field’ that drives people crazy the closer they get to the Event’s epicenter and by the towering kaiju that roam the wastelands.

Broken out of jail by an insane oligarch, Dutch McGuire—getaway driver, carjacker and all-round badass—is tasked with one mission: investigate the mystery at the heart of Teijouan in order to win her freedom.

Tesseracts fold time and space. I inherited the ability to both find and control them.
Unlimited access to all universes. Sort of.
Yea, freaky. I know too well how freaky.
So I spent my life on the move - through many times, and many spaces. Forgetting where and when I'd been wasn't an option. My salvation was mastering the trick of retracing my path. To find my original home, to find the love I'd lived so long without.
It wasn't just missing a normal childhood.
If I didn't figure out how to get my life back under control, I'd just be growing older.
Alone.
Without any home or family or lover to ever call my own.

The Fire Seer Romarin Demetri
It’s déjà vu for Delilah when she stops a pyrotechnic accident at a London punk rock concert in 1986, and realizes that she’s seen it before—and that she’s the first fire element seer the London Coven has ever had. After one of their own is abducted by rogue witches, it’s clear that someone high up is playing everyone as fast and hard as a fifth chord chorus. Delilah’s premonitions might not be enough to stop the witches in charge, or challenge an ancient, hedonistic ritual that plagues London Coven hopefuls—not unless she can work in harmony with the other four elements. Can Delilah put away the past and future, and focus on the present to bring the guilty parties to dead end justice?

Another mystery was in how she died. No corpse, just an urn filled with ashes that was distributed over the harbor without any witnesses. Shown by a slick video played at her funeral.
No motive. Just a disappearance. The coroner's report from an upstate, rural county stated natural causes. For a young 20-something advertising executive.
But there were no details left unaccounted for. Funeral arrangements paid for in advance. Even the police chief said it was a closed case. That didn't stop Detective Johnson from being curious...

The next day he meets two women who visit his cabin, arriving out of the blue, literally. (Well, one arrived with pitched black darkness which filled his cabin and made her cough.)
These two have an offer for Stark. All he really wanted was to enjoy the small cabin and solitude so he could write his detective stories.
These ladies had another offer - to help them solve the reasons ghosts don't move on. Plenty of new inspiration for stories, decent pay, won't interrupt his writing schedule.

Love this intriguing cover. Can't wait for more from this author!
A very intriguing plot, and I love all the symbols on the shield. I must learn more!
Ann Veronica by H. G. Wells
Ann Veronica by H. G. Wells Midwest Classics Press
When a woman finds her true self, she can then open her eyes to love.
Ann Veronica deals with contemporary political issues of Edwardian England, concentrating specifically on feminist issues. In the course of the action the heroine matures from an innocent and naïve girl to a representative of the New Woman. Wells portrays the attitudes of that time, in particular those of the heroine's father and boyfriends who are completely unable to understand why a woman should want to be independent, study science, have the right to vote, and so on. These male chauvinists are not portrayed as bad people, but as men blindered by the education of the time.

Finding out you're immortal as a teenager can set your world on fire.
But finding out at the same time that just getting angry could kill everyone around you can dampen that pretty quickly.
Who wants to live forever if you can't get close enough to someone that they can piss you off and live to see the next sunrise with you?
Meaning - it was time to take a road trip to sort things out.
When my uncle offered a summer gig cooking out of his food truck for a big-city contract, I jumped at it.
But when he stopped to pick up another helper down the road, I was bummed. She was a looker, a great cook, but I didn't know if I could trust myself with her - in every way...

Witch Mystery: Beth by S. H. Marpel Living Sensical
Fighting off a rampaging troll in the woods just to rescue her milk cow wasn't the first thing on her list today.
Neither was finding a male wood nymph who needed her help.
What didn't help was his attitude of being "Nature's gift to women", but his broken leg meant he was going to perish out there when the next troll came along.
Come to think of it, maybe that troll was after him, and not her Bessie-cow?
Regardless, she just couldn't leave him out there. And in spite of his attitude, he was kind of cute, pointy ears and all.
If only she didn't have to now fend off her farm from other very real fairy-tale creatures, like goblins and witches, and of course, more trolls...

Reluctant Hood
Reluctant Hood Kendrai Meeks
Humans think Red Riding Hood is a fairy tale, but hoods know about the woman who committed the darkest sin one of our kind can: loving a werewolf and becoming his mate. The fairy tale didn’t end the way you’ve been told. Unless you’ve heard that she was roasted on a silver spit over a fire, that is.
And I almost walked down that same path. But in losing the werewolf I loved, I also realized the kind of person I want to be. I will not hate werewolves just because they’re werewolves. I will not train to contain them, dominate them, and even kill them. In fact, I refuse to be a hood at all.
I’ve walked away from my old life.
And that was going great, until an English werewolf on the run walked into my new one…

Jane Child’s career is going nowhere. Stuck in the headquarters of a large London bank, she’s in the slow lane heading towards a middle-management dead end when her boss becomes a basket case. Suddenly thrust into the limelight, Jane is now Acting Divisional Manager of International Business – a demanding role she's not sure she even wants.

With the help of her new friend Pri, Jane cracks the computer, discovers her boss’s tawdry secret, and stumbles on an unexpected and intriguing relationship along the way. But there are secrets within secrets, and when Jane inadvertently stirs the murky waters of the criminal underworld, some very big, very nasty fish swim out.

Carol and Reggie were different. They thought different. Reggie could talk "the ears off a corn stalk." He was an expert on history, like a walking Wikipedia on ancient times (if people could stand to listen to him.) Carol hardly talked, but her hugs could tell you the world. She could solve quintic polynomial equations. And a 4x4 Rubic's cube with one hand.
They were autists. "Special needs" people. Savants, kind of.
They were perfect for each other. Or maybe not. So different.
Between them, they understood the universe.

Escape by J. R. Kruze
Escape by J. R. Kruze Living Sensical
Hunted by evil, her only escape was to find the light, but her broken wings couldn't carry her to safety.
Why this tiny, suffering pixie was hunted by a monster troll seemed to be a simple urge - he needed to feed off her energy to keep living.
Only a few hours to daylight, when the troll had to sleep to avoid the burning rays of sunlight, or being found by Truth-Seekers and forever imprisoned in stone. After the sun rose, she could heal herself by bathing in sunlight and escape forever.
But why was this troll out of his territory and why was he hunting her? Not just his hunger, that much was certain.
The troll needed food, but she had a secret message to deliver.
And that one message could prevent humans and fairies from losing a coming troll war...

The Case of a Cruising Phantom by S. H. Marpel Living Sensical
I knew exactly why I was still here. To haunt whoever had pushed me overboard.
My only problem was finding them. And if they weren't still alive, they had relatives.
Meanwhile, I kept amused by haunting the ship's passengers and crew. And the cruise line didn't have a problem with it. Their "haunted cruises" were a big hit. Full capacity for this old boat and its evening dinner cruises out beyond the harbor.
"Misstep Mary" they called me. Even had a faded photo of me blown up and cut out so passengers could take photos with me "haunting" them. Because they ruled my death accidental. But would I still be here if it was?
So I arranged for the Ghost Hunters to show up and solve this. Otherwise, there was no peaceful 'going into the light'. Getting revenge might be all I get...

Lady Molly of Scotland Yard by Baroness Orczy
Lady Molly of Scotland Yard by Baroness Orczy Midwest Classics Press
When her fiancee is falsely accused and the police are unable to find evidence to support his innocence, Lady Molly does the unheard of - she joins the police to improve their methods.
Lady Molly, like her fictional contemporaries, most often succeeded because she recognised domestic clues foreign to male experience. Her entry into the police is motivated by a desire to save her fiancé from a false accusation. Once her superior intuition has triumphed, Lady Molly marries and leaves the force.
This collection of short stories about Molly Robertson-Kirk was written by Baroness Orczy, who is best known as the creator of The Scarlet Pimpernel.
First published in 1910, Orczy's female detective was the precursor of the lay sleuth who relies on brains rather than brawn.

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.
