Immortal Blood: Book 1 of The Immortal Descendants

About Immortal Blood: Book 1 of The Immortal Descendants

A true-blood heir of an otherwise extinct fae bloodline, a thousand-year-old magic spell, and a lycan attack—now my eyes are wide open to a world full of monsters.

I have an innate fear of fangs, so when I learn that the super-hot guy that saved me is a vampire hybrid, I’m just as scared as I was when my life was hanging in the balance. But it’s not just him that makes me hot under the collar as I find out what I missed over the centuries.

Turns out, it’s not just lycans who want to take a bite out of me. As every monster takes an interest in me, I soon learn my blood is a curse. And as I learn about my history, it’s not only myself I need to worry about… The truth of what I am places my friends and family in danger, too.

But it’s the vampire royals, with their ridiculous demands, that leave me in the most perilous situation of all. If I pay their price, I turn traitor to my nation. But fighting back means I may have to sacrifice the two things that matter more to me than life itself.

If you like Jennifer L. Armentrout and Bella Forrest, you’ll want to dive right into this new paranormal series.

Orthodox Theology and Technology: A Profoundly Gifted Autobiography

About Orthodox Theology and Technology: A Profoundly Gifted Autobiography

The book, like most of my books, is in fact a collection of originally independent works drawn in to a single center of gravity. In this case it includes the following works:

“About the Author:” my website’s author biography. Some people have found it significant that I claim not some uniqueness, but the glory and shame of being a human being.

“An Author’s Musing Memoirs About His Work: Retrospective Reflections, Retracings, and Retractions,” a set of musing memoirs at midlife.

“Character Sheet.” I am intentionally no longer a gamer, but a character sheet with a bit of fantasy is something that some reader will instantly connect with.

“An Interview with the Author by… the Author Himself!” It might be read with the “Cosmic Patriot” work of “Why I’m Glad I’m Living Now, at This Place, at This Time, in This World”

“Orthodox Theology and Technology: A Profoundly Gifted Autobiography” offers a single autobiography in a more conventional sense.

“Appendix A: Recommended Works” is intended to give the reader a head start in navigating my voluminous output. It covers which works to read first.

Bell Hammers

About Bell Hammers

“Remmy’s life of constant schemes and pranks and a lifelong feud with classmate Jim Johnstone and the local oil drilling company proves consequential. This is a hoot.”
– Publisher’s Weekly

🏆 Finalist for Glimmer Train’s Fiction Open.

PRANKS. OIL. PROTEST. JOKES BETWEEN NEWLYWEDS.

AND ONE HILARIOUS SIEGE OF A MAJOR CORPORATION.

Remmy grows up with Beth in Bellhammer, Illinois as oil and coal companies rob the land of everything that made it paradise. Under his Grandad, he learns how to properly prank his neighbors, friends, and foes. Beth tries to fix Remmy by taking him to church. Under his Daddy, Remmy starts the Bell Hammer Construction Company, which depends on contracts from Texarco Oil. And Beth argues with him about how to build a better business. Together, Remmy and Beth start to build a great neighborhood of “merry men” carpenters: a paradise of s’mores, porch furniture, newborn babies, and summer trips to Branson where their boys pop the tops off of the neighborhood’s two hundred soda bottles. Their witty banter builds a kind of castle among a growing nostalgia.

Then one of Jim Johnstone’s faulty Texarco oil derricks falls down on their house and poisons their neighborhood’s well.

Poisoned wells escalate to torched dog houses. Torched dog houses escalate to stolen carpentry tools and cancelled contracts. Cancelled contracts escalate to eminent domain. Sick of the attacks from Texaco Oil on his neighborhood, Remmy assembles his merry men:

“We need the world’s greatest prank. One grand glorious jest that’ll bloody the nose of that tyrant. Besides, pranks and jokes don’t got no consequences, right?”

The Balkan Wars: A Captivating Guide to the First and Second Balkan War and Their Impact on World War I by Captivating History

About The Balkan Wars: A Captivating Guide to the First and Second Balkan War and Their Impact on World War I by Captivating History

It was a term devised in the early 20th century to describe the unstable political situation in the region just before it exploded into a conflict known as the First World War. The Balkan Wars were a series of conflicts fought between the Balkan League (Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, and Montenegro) and its allies and the Ottoman Empire. But these wars didn’t involve any of the great European powers such as Germany, France, or the United Kingdom. This is what makes them less known, but they were crucial for the development of the European political scene.
The Balkan Wars were first fought for ethnic groups that were ruled by the Ottoman Empire so they could gain their complete independence and expand their territory. Looking up to the successful western states, Serbia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Greece wanted to achieve national states with a territory that would gather all their ethnic brothers into one state.
But the legacy of the Ottoman Empire lives on in the multiethnic hodgepodge of the Balkan Peninsula. Unlike Westerners, the Ottomans considered their faith to be the uniting factor, not the idea of belonging to a nation. This belief created the complex situation in the Balkans that lasts to this day.
To understand this part of Europe, one must look into the past and understand the obscure and complex conflicts that are known as the Balkan Wars. This book will take you into the past and show you how it all started, from the creation of the Balkan League to the Bucharest Peace Conference.
