The Brittle Riders by Bill McCormick
After humans circumvented anti-AI laws and made new species to fulfill roles of menial laborers, sex slaves, and shock troops, those creations eventually rose up and killed every man, woman, and child on the planet. This is the world if Frankenstein’s monsters ruled the Earth.
Like Game of Thrones on crack, apocalypses are funny that way.

About Maestro! Maestro!
Heaven’s glorious music enthralls Satan, while Hell’s cringingly awful music enrages him. He commands his gargoyle servant, Villi, to find a genius composer ready to sell his soul.
Before Villi went to hell in 1795, he had led a life of princely status in Vienna, enjoying his reputation as a cruel-hearted music critic. His name had been Wilhelm von Stockenhaus.
As Stockenhaus, he arrives in 1900 Vienna. At a pompous concert, he discovers Anton Becker, outraging the stuffed shirts of tradition with his radical, pulse-pounding music. They call it ‘barbaric!’ But Villi’s discerning ears disagree. It’s brilliant.
Another who adores Anton’s music is Lisa von Schelling, the love of his life, but off-limits because of her father. After all, the Schellings are rich and aristocratic, while Anton is poor and a nobody. Competing for Lisa’s affections is Friedrich Mundung, a wealthy insincere cad.
Gargoyle Villi, watches from the dark as Anton pleads to a Beethoven statue for help, but the maestro is stone silent. Villi delights in Anton’s mounting troubles. He can’t pay his rent, and Lisa’s butler shuts the door in his face. So, now he’s lost Lisa.
On his way to jump into the river, a carriage pulls up, and an odd, dapperly dressed man, introducing himself as Herr Wilhelm von Stockenhaus, offers him a patron prince.
They go to his castle in the Vienna Woods. The prince (as in darkness) adores Anton’s music. He offers three magic tunning forks. “Accept this gift and you will rise to the pinnacle of success.” The price? Anton’s soul. He accepts, since he thinks he knows how to cheat on the deal.
Heaven sends the Angel Beethoven to save him. Anton won’t believe Beethoven’s Beethoven, much less an angel. Yes, he’s in old-fashioned clothes and he’s hard of hearing. But it’s not convincing. And Beethoven has next to no patience with ‘this young blockhead.’
Villi pulls every evil trick in the book to keep Anton on the ‘road to hell’ and off the ‘old straight and narrow.’ The magic forks transport him into amazing and terrifying adventures. Upon returning from each, he finds he’s created a new magnificent score. And with each, his fame and fortune rises. But Lisa’s respect and belief in him diminishes.
Finally, Anton faces a crossroads—one leading to more fame and fortune… the other to integrity for wherever it might take him.

This is why a clan must stick together at all costs, nestled in whatever patch of peaceful land it has scratched out for itself. This is why strangers are not to be trusted.

About Leadership development by Phoenix publisher
What is leadership? Do you want to take your career to the next level by improving your leadership skills? Why is leadership one of the most crucial disciplines in managing organizations?
Naturally, some people are believed to be born with leadership qualities, but anyone can be a leader. Contrary to this popular belief, leaders are made by improving certain skills to help them influence and inspire others. Many individuals became great leaders in their careers without previous leadership experience.
For instance, Olive Ann Beech is a force to reckon with in the aviation industry because she rose to become the first woman to lead a big aircraft company following the death of her husband. She joined the industry as a secretary at Beech, Boeing, and Cessna aircraft manufacturers in 1924 (Smith, 2019). She later married Walter Beech and cofounded the Beech Aircraft Corporation in 1932. When her husband died, she took over the leadership role in the company leadership.
If you want to become an effective leader, this book is for you. It primarily focuses on providing a practical and comprehensive understanding of leadership so you can become a great leader in your career. It offers insights and solutions to individuals navigating the complexities of life and business.
This book will be free for 5 days starting the 12th of October.

About 2020: The YEAR The Earth Stood Still
Far too many people are cursed with short memories of even the most impactful events in human history,” writes Calitri. “The objective of ‘2020: The YEAR the Earth Stood Still’ is to prevent the monumental happenings during those 366 days from fading into the ash heap of antiquity. Focusing attention on the sources of this continuing saga is intended to keep alive the painful recollections of national and global government authoritarianism, the grief and suffering perpetrated by sinister egoists, and the ruination of so many innocent lives.”
Presented by Page Publishing, Joe Calitri’s enlightening work serves as a call to action for those who cherish individual liberties and question the expanding reach of government authority, underscoring the enduring importance of safeguarding constitutional rights and preserving the foundations of a free society. Raw and shockingly honest, “2020: The YEAR the Earth Stood Still” is poised to provoke discussion and reflection among readers who seek a deeper understanding of America’s recent history, encouraging them to reexamine their beliefs and perceptions of the events that shaped a nation in flux.
