Wanders Far-An Unlikely Hero’s Journey by David Fitz-Gerald  

Wanders Far-An Unlikely Hero’s Journey by David Fitz-Gerald

Wanders Far lived in dangerous times and was faced with one difficult challenge after another. He was a skinny, quiet boy who was raised on the banks of a tributary of New York State’s Mohawk River, hundreds of years before colonists arrived. One lifetime was not enough for Wanders Far’s old soul.

From a very young age, his wanderlust compelled him down one path after another. No village could contain him.

He was happy living a simple life in the physical world during challenging times. The spirit world had other plans.

A wise, enigmatic shaman mentored Wanders Far and helped him cultivate the supernatural visions that haunted him. His guide could only help him so far.

He set out to become a runner, carrying important messages across the lands of his people and their enemies. He ended up fulfilling a much greater destiny than he ever imagined.

This is the first installment in the Adirondack Spirit Series.

You might like this book if you like historical novels, westerns, supernatural thrillers, or books featuring distance hikers. If you like all of those, hopefully this book will be one of your favorites.

Author Bio:
David Fitz-Gerald is an author. Okay, make that amateur author. After a chaotic day as a business person, Dave enjoys getting lost in the settings he imagines and spending time with the characters he creates. Writing historical fiction is like making paintings of the past. Dave loves to weave fact and fiction together, stirring in action, adventure, romance, and a heavy dose of the supernatural with the hope of transporting the reader to another time and place. He is an Adirondack 46-er, which means he has hiked all of the highest peaks in New York State, so it should not be surprising when Dave attempts to glorify hikers as swashbuckling superheroes in his writing.



Mommy’s Boyfriend by Victoria Snow  

Mommy’s Boyfriend by Victoria Snow

Five years ago, I surrendered my V-card to a man twice my age,

And today he’s back – as my mommy’s fake boyfriend!

Spencer has no clue about how I still feel about him.

Those gray eyes, his tempting touch.

He’s all I want.

And I want him all to myself.

But this will cause a huge scandal,

And scandal’s not something I can afford.

Not when I’ve been hiding a huge secret.

Fate has given us a second chance,

I know, it’s complicated.

But I want to make it simpler.

I want to tell him that he is my baby daddy.

Will he leave my mother for me if I told him the truth?

The Modest Proposal Institute by Paul James  

The Modest Proposal Institute by Paul James

The near-future comes to life in this dystopian sci-fi series of a boys’ school for those with the ‘right stuff’.

Seeing where the Western world was headed, two men start an offshore school for gifted boys and men – The Modest Proposal Institute, focusing on science, technology, engineering, maths and medicine. It’s modeled on schools of the past. After the disastrous 2021-22 Recession, and the increasing cold brought on by the Solar Minimum, the growing success of the Institute’s boys and men drives Western leaders to attack the Institute and try to take its wealth.

Young Alexis knows he’s destined to be a leader. Convinced that he’ll save the planet from its slow decline, he’s excited to best every one of his rivals at the prestigious Modest Proposal Institute. If only that pale brainiac Shane would get out of his way…

Shane has vowed to be part of the change the world so drastically needs. Driven to use his superior intellect to outsmart his classmates, he can see the top spot in sight. At least, until he meets his match in Alexis.

As the school’s competitive projects challenge the boys’ leadership, Alexis and Shane happily resort to underhanded tactics to gain the advantage. Can they rise above their personal battles or will their constant rivalry deal a fatal blow to humankind?

The Modest Proposal Institute: An Old Path to a New Future is the first book in the Modest Institute YA sci-fi series. If you like futuristic contests, ambitious heroes, and tough social challenges, then you’ll love Paul James’ unique glimpse of tomorrow’s society.

Author Bio:
I began devouring books in the third grade, when I read every book in the elementary school library on dinosaurs, followed by every book on cavemen, followed by every book featuring horses or dogs. By the time I retired to pursue my own writing career, I must have read over 300 mystery, thriller, and action-adventure books, including every book written by Robert B. Parker and Lee Child. I still read at least two books a month, even while I’m writing.

My Carlos McCrary series combines the Private Investigator and Mystery/Thriller genres—think Spenser meets Jack Reacher. I keep pace rapid, the action exciting, and the plot full of surprises. I write to hit hard, have a good time, and leave as few grammar errors as possible (or is it “grammatical errors”? Hmm.)

In my previous life, I worked as a shoe salesman, grocery store sacker, florist deliverer, auditor, management consultant, association executive, accountant, radio announcer, and a paid assassin for the Florida Board of Cosmetology. (I am lying about one of those jobs.) If you ask me about it, I will deny ever having worked as an auditor.

The Dragon’s Banker  

About The Dragon’s Banker

Finance: The lifeblood of any country’s beating heart and the life’s work of Sailor Kelstern — Merchant Banker. While wizards brood in their towers and great warriors charge into battle Sailor is more interested in the price of ore, herbs, and alchemicals carried by the trade ships.

Sailor soon finds that the dragons are very real, and not at all what he expected. And they practice a very different sort of economy — one of subterfuge and fire.

Julian Fox, The Dream Guardian by E.J. Miranda  

About Julian Fox, The Dream Guardian by E.J. Miranda

It is said that dreams are just that: only dreams. But believe me, this is not always true. Some dreams are as real as the dreamer.

Thanks to their dreams, dreamers can receive the special visit of eternal wisdom that has inspired the creativity of great inventors, scientists, musicians, and even writers throughout the ages.

This creative wisdom is not always the type that appears to the eager conscience. Sometimes, a Defiler, a destroyer of dreams, is the one who tries to appear before the dreamer. These creatures were once humans, but they allowed their pain and desire for revenge to take over and seek the same miserable fate for the one who dreams.

You must not fear — Dream Guardians, also known as Kelsdrant, will always protect the one who dreams, even with their own life. They are people of flesh and bone, just like you and me, or at least they are on Earth.

The following story is dedicated to the fun, extravagant, and enlightening life of Julian Fox, the Dream Guardian.

Be prepared, dear reader. It is time to dream, laugh, reflect, and even maybe cry.

Welcome to the Land of the Wise Dreams.

Elizabeth McKinnie will no longer accept men ruling her life. After the Civil War devastated her family home, and having no way to survive, Elizabeth accepts one of the mail-order bride proposals presented to her and her sisters. She chooses a man who promises to treat her as an equal. Her sister convinces her to switch suitors, proclaiming the weather in Texas would be more suitable for Elizabeth’s weak lungs. Agreeing, she heads west to meet the mysterious cattle baron she knows little about.

Jeb Clayton grew up as a poor son of a drunkard. He has worked his entire life to ensure he never starves again. He is a man who understands cows better than women, especially after watching the fairer sex manipulate his father into an early grave. Still, he begrudgingly agrees to marry a sturdy bride to produce sons who can help build his ranch into an empire. Yet, what he sees getting off the stagecoach is a whisper-of-a-woman with undesirable birthing hips.

When Elizabeth’s and Jeb’s futures are threatened will they join forces, or will their bitterness be their end?

About Positive Self-Talk: How to Unlock the Absolute Best You in 30 Days by Shivali Patel

Too often, we unintentionally limit ourselves with our mind and our energy.

The Contingency  

About The Contingency

No-one comes in peace. Every being in the galaxy wants something, and is willing to take it by force.

The Hedalt were no different. They came from the distant reaches of the galaxy to wage war. Their fleet wanted to take Earth for its prize, but we were ready. We were stronger.

For years, we fought them, ship-to-ship, until we scattered their forces and drove them back. Pursuing the Hedalt fleet to their home world, we delivered the decisive blow. We nuked their planet and wiped them out for good.

Or so we thought.

For decades, Earth Fleet sent out Deep Space Recon missions to scour the galaxy and clean up the remnants of the Hedalt Empire. Eventually, we found only ghosts – empty outposts and long-dead colonies. But, close to the edge of known space, I – Captain Taylor Ray – and my crew are about to make a discovery that will change everything.

The war isn’t over. The war has yet to begin.
