About Looper A Coming of Age Novel

Fourteen-year-old Ford Quinn has read The Outsiders, Robert Frost poems, and knows the song lyrics for every single Springsteen album. As he heads into high school, star-gazing poet Ford has fallen hard for an Egyptian princess and become a caddy at an exclusive county club. With an amazing summer vacation ahead of him, what could go wrong?
Everything.
His family can’t afford life in the affluent Detroit neighborhood of Kensington Hills, and his dad’s get-rich-quick schemes are getting as old as his mother’s fervent self-improvement pop psychology. To top everything off, his chances of gaining entry into the popular Lund Gang appears as far away as the stars he sees through the telescope in his bedroom.
Will Ford’s quest to earn a caddy scholarship change the soundtrack of his life? Or will his encounters with cruel foils shatter his dreams and ruin his summer of firsts? This quirky, nostalgic coming-of-age novel will take you back to the time of Space Invaders, Rubik’s cubes, mixtapes, and immerse you in the wonders of growing up in the summer of ‘80.

Soul Bondage

About Soul Bondage

Do you feel as if your happiness keeps getting sabotaged? Do you feel bound at times to the appetites of your flesh? I can relate to the internal struggle of sin that produces shame and guilt. You may try to cover up the struggle going on inside, but your soul continues to cry out. There could be a breach in your soul that has allowed the enemy an access point. There could be an active legal precedent potentially stopping you from accessing your greatness.

Using a Hebraic Pauline biblical worldview, I explain how Y’shua and Paul both warned us of the natural principles that could bind us spiritually, financially, and emotionally. These are seen as archaic today, but they are the same principles used by the adversary. Soul Bondage shows us how to fight in the heavenlies using a legal model which is advanced tactical spiritual warfare.

About Nemesis (Universe in Flames – Dark Legacy Book 1) by Christian Kallias

We thought defeating the Furies would bring peace to the Galaxy. We were wrong.

A year has passed since defeating the Furies. Members of the Alliance are settling into their new roles, but unexpected forces are about to shatter their sense of peace.

Former Admiral Chase Athanatos and the Earth Alliance have won the Fury War. But in doing so, Chase paid a terrible price. His wife, Sarah, was mortally wounded, so he heads out to the unknown region hoping to find a cure.

In the alternate dimension, Ares survived the destruction of Erevos. In his current quest to gather intel about the Spectres and their plans, he’s forced to consider an unlikely alliance with a Fury survivor—that is, if he ever hopes to return home.

Tar’Lock now serves aboard a mercenary ship under the leadership of Captain Talon Epizon, a man with demons and who despises the Earth Alliance. When they come in contact with an enemy spider ship, all hell breaks loose, and the ragtag crew of the Bellerophon must defy the odds if they wish to survive.

It appears the peace that came with defeating the Furies was short-lived. Now the universe is about to plunge into darkness once more. Are Chase and his friends ready for the Spectres? How can they defeat an enemy immensely more powerful than the mighty Furies?

About The Sword of Kaigen by M. L. Wang

– ONLY 99c May 26th – 30th! –

“Fantasy and martial arts aficionados alike should enjoy this emotionally supercharged novel about love and loss, which pierces readers’ hearts with the precision of a samurai’s razor-sharp blade.” – Blue Ink ★ Starred Review

“The Poppy War’s darkness meets The Last Airbender’s elemental magic… I haven’t been so emotionally moved by a book in a long while.” – JC Kang, USA Today Bestselling Author of The Dragon Songs Saga

On a mountainside at the edge of the Kaigenese Empire live the most powerful warriors in the world, superhumans capable of raising the sea and wielding blades of ice. For hundreds of years, the fighters of the Kusanagi Peninsula have held the Empire’s enemies at bay, earning their frozen spit of land the name ‘The Sword of Kaigen.’

Born into Kusanagi’s legendary Matsuda family, fourteen-year-old Mamoru has always known his purpose: to master his family’s fighting techniques and defend his homeland. But when an outsider arrives and pulls back the curtain on Kaigen’s alleged age of peace, Mamoru realizes that he might not have much time to become the fighter he was bred to be. Worse, the empire he was bred to defend may stand on a foundation of lies.

Misaki told herself that she left the passions of her youth behind when she married into the Matsuda house. Determined to be a good housewife and mother, she hid away her sword, along with everything from her days as a fighter in a faraway country. But with her growing son asking questions about the outside world, the threat of an impending invasion looming across the sea, and her frigid husband grating on her nerves, Misaki finds the fighter in her clawing its way back to the surface.

When the winds of war reach their peninsula, will the Matsuda family have the strength to defend their empire? Or will they tear each other apart before the true enemies even reach their shores?

………………

A rich elemental magic system and deep world-building make this martial fantasy perfect for fans of R.F. Kuang, Brandon Sanderson, Leigh Bardugo, and Lian Hearn.

THE SHASTA GATE by Dick Croy

Leave a Comment

About THE SHASTA GATE by Dick Croy

In the guise of a romantic adventure, The Shasta Gate embarks on a captivating exploration of love, consciousness and the nature of reality on California’s legendary Mt. Shasta. Girl on a horse, guy on a motorcycle, passionate and erotic romance, deliciously wicked bad guys, and a mysterious Indian with possibly paranormal powers all catapult the reader into an unforgettable literary experience.

Author Dick Croy sees his novel as “a sort of mashup of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance with Joseph Chilton Pearce’s The Crack in the Cosmic Egg except that, in addition to much action and intrigue, The Shasta Gate is peopled with fictional characters embodying much of the essence of the philosophical ruminations in those books.”

The novel marries the mythical quest tale with a nitty-gritty contemporary love story in which a young man and woman are so powerfully drawn to each other they oppose the attraction desperately, sensing in it great and dangerous personal change. Their mutual struggle brings out the worst and, ultimately, best in each of them, culminating in a union which we have watched evolve slowly and painfully from selfish physical attraction, and fear, to selfless love.
