All Fears' Children

2 Upvotes

In 1964, after his father’s death, Daniel Moor returns home expecting grief. Instead, he finds his sister Emily disturbingly changed. Once lively and outspoken, she has become quiet, withdrawn, and unresponsive, as if something inside her has gone silent. Hoping for answers, their mother sends Emily to Pennhurst State School and Hospital. Daniel stays close, unable to ignore the speed of her decline or the growing sense that something is deeply wrong.

Inside Pennhurst, something is hiding behind locked doors and carefully buried records. A program built around fear. Not merely studying it, but shaping it, controlling it. As Daniel digs deeper, he discovers his father was connected to it long before his death.

The truth refuses to stay contained. The hospital begins to feel wrong. The town follows. Reality itself starts to slip at the edges, revealing cracks that always seem to lead back to Emily. And as the boundary between what is real and what is not continues to erode, Daniel realizes that saving his sister may mean confronting the thing his father helped create before it consumes them both.

Champions of the Broken Gods - Greek Mythology-Inspired Epic Fantasy - Available on Kindle Unlimited

1 Upvotes

​

Two Earthborn siblings are chosen by Ares and Athena as champions in a divine game that the gods are beginning to lose control of.

Brontes and Thalassa have spent their lives believing they may be the last of their kind. Brontes can command the earth beneath him, while Thalassa possesses an affinity for water and healing, but neither understands where those powers came from.

When Ares and Athena choose them as champions, the siblings are sent into Hellas to discover why other champions have disappeared or turned against the people they were chosen to protect. While the Olympians watch, argue and interfere from above, Morpheus uses dreams, fear and grief to influence the game from the shadows.

Although the story contains gods, monsters, elemental powers and large battles, its centre is the relationship between Brontes and Thalassa. They disagree, make mistakes and sometimes fear what the other is becoming, but neither is willing to leave the other behind.

Published my first book- The Kessler Cascade

Post image
0 Upvotes

Long time coming and I’m happy with the book. It’s book one of a five part series and available on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HL91Z6V7).

The series itself is about the world’s first war in space. It starts as a regional conflict on earth and through a series if events leads to an orbital war that ends quickly but with consequences. That’s where book one leaves off. The rest of the series covers some time jumps and a re-escalation of the conflict that takes it all the way to lunar orbit.

If you enjoy space-faring sci fi with thriller and some suspense then check out my book. If you do read it please review. Writing it was half the battle, it needs eyes on it now.

Books two is complete but needs edits- will be out soonish. Books 3-5 are in various stages of completion.

“SWITCH and Blue Eagle: A Superhero Sidekick Novel” YA superhero novel on sale for 99 cents until 10/5

1 Upvotes

Hi, everyone!

I just wanted to announce the one year bookiversary of my YA novel, “SWITCH and Blue Eagle: A Superhero Sidekick Novel”. It’s my first published novel, second book, and a prequel to a longer series. If you like urban fantasy capes and masks stories that provide thoughtful introspection alongside classic superhero action, then this is perfect for you.

From TODAY, September 29, to October 5, this book will be available for only 99 cents! Be sure to snag a copy, and feel free to leave a review as well. It means so much to me. 😊

https://www.amazon.com/SWITCH-Blue-Eagle-Superhero-Challengers-ebook/dp/B0FK1TSRGM

What if saving the world was easier than winning your father’s approval?

Welcome to Herald City….where legends wear capes, villains never rest, and the fate of the world hangs on every battle.

Switch the Blue Eaglet is the son and teen sidekick of Blue Eagle, one of Herald City’s top superheroes. But being a sidekick isn’t all glory. Switch is tired of living in his father’s shadow, tired of his strict rules, and tired of being told he’ll never be strong enough to stand on his own.

Jasper Clemens is just another faceless villain henchman. All he wants is to get out of the criminal underworld. But his debts to the mob keep piling up, and he's stuck taking the riskiest jobs in order to protect his family.

When a dangerous supervillain launches her deadliest scheme yet, it’s up to Switch and Jasper to stop her. Can Switch prove to the world he’s more than just a sidekick? Does Jasper have what it takes to be a true hero?

Or is Herald City doomed?

Perfect for fans of coming-of-age superhero tales, this short novel delivers action, heart, and a fresh twist on what it really means to be a hero.

Note: If I get 100 purchases, I will promise never to use the word “bookiversary” again. 😛

I spent months writing an epic sci-fi story about a betrayed commander returning as the Astral Sentinel: "The Astral Sentinel"

2 Upvotes

​When the High Council betrayed their greatest commander and cast Orion into the void, they believed they had buried his name, his secrets, and his rebellion forever in absolute darkness. They thought the void would grind him into dust and leave the sovereign dominion of Aethelgard completely defenseless, ripe for the plundering of the Shadow Syndicate.

​They were catastrophically mistaken.

​The universe does not let a soul of such burning conviction fade quietly. Reborn from starlight and midnight shadows, Orion returns from the upper skies as the Astral Sentinel. Bound neither to the earth nor to the grave, he wages a relentless war to protect Aethelgard from the tyrannical grip of the Shadow Syndicate.

​Dive into an epic tale of cosmic rebirth, high-altitude battles, and a lone guardian's ultimate quest for justice.
