About The Questioner by Andrew Vachss
An all-new novelette by Andrew Vachss, author of the acclaimed Burke series.
For all secrets created, a tiny percentage is kept against any intrusion. The ultimate extractor of such secrets is The Questioner – a man who has trained himself to become empty, who uses that emptiness to listen fully, to sense what others need to hear, to respond in ways that lead them to reveal their most protected thoughts. Disdaining torture or coercion, he mines those secrets with nothing more than conversation.
For those who meet his price – governments, multinational corporations, and the most complex criminal organizations – The Questioner obtains information. The secrets he learns can create or topple empires, win or destroy fortunes, lubricate the gears of the world … or grind them to a halt.
But as the Questioner moves from one target to the next, just beyond the outer edge of his probes lurks something dangerous to his own emptiness. It will force him to turn his powers inward, to ask how he became what he is, and to find a truth he has never sought.
Praise for Andrew Vachss
“Andrew Vachss’s work is all about horror, outrage, moral indignation and the blood of commitment. Vachss is the voice of righteousness confronting a powerful and cowardly evil.”—James Ellroy
“Andrew Vachss is one of my favorite writers, and I never miss one of his books. He brings incredible passion and flare to the mystery genre.”—James Patterson
“Vachss is red-hot and as serious as a punctured lung.”—Playboy
“Writing in a style so sleekly engineered that it purrs when you pop the hood, Vachss gives us such a smooth ride it’s easy to forget someone is driving.”—The New York Times Book Review
“To read Andrew Vachss at his best is to take a ride on the dark side, where the plight of the oppressed and vulnerable … becomes the catalyst for revenge fueled street justice.”—Los Angeles Times
“There’s no way to put a [Vachss book] down once you’ve begun.”—Detroit Free Press
“Andrew Vachss is a contemporary master.”—The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
“Vachss reverence for storytelling is evident in the blunt beauty of his language.”—Chicago Sun-Times
“There is no other living American writer with prose as razor clean as Andrew Vachss, and there is no other writer willing to go so far into such dark extremes, either. When Vachss turns the juice on, the bad guys sizzle .”—The Austin Chronicle
“Andrew Vachss is unique among modern writers: no one else comes close to the raw power and intellectual ambiguity that he manifests so elegantly, so coldly.”—The Clarion-Ledger (Jackson, MS)

Fossilized Gods by J Simon
About Fossilized Gods by J Simon
Being a god isn’t easy. Oh sure, you can crash the super-exclusive club at that hot new pyramid, but one little drought and your worshippers are suddenly burying you neck-deep in scorpions.
Samantha never expected to wake from her long sleep. When she came to, mortals were riding around inside big metal cows, shooting invisible info-rays across the sky, and doing amazing things with cake frosting. They took cell phones for granted and thought nothing of a university where Physics stood between Inhumanities and Necro.
Now, deep in the great museum, other gods have begun to wake—old gods, terrible gods, gods that would drown the world in suffering. If Samantha can just wake the dead, outwit a huge disembodied brain, and evade the Great Hunter who’s after her head, maybe she can do something about it!

Author Bio:
J Simon is larger than a breadbox. J Simon occasionally and inexplicably smells of cinnamon. J Simon is made of ghosts. J Simon believes that authors, like artists, should be as fascinating as their work, and invites you to imagine a far-distant land where divinely inspired lunatics spend their lives inscribing every story ever told upon the backs of giant tortoises. The tortoises spend their lives weeping, for they cannot read the wondrous tales written upon their own backs. Many years ago, an empty shell covered with astonishing runes washed up on a remote and tangled shore. Shortly afterward, the books of J Simon began to appear.
This is a coincidence.

Tyson & Joey: Two Worlds Collide
About Tyson & Joey: Two Worlds Collide
This is the story of two very different young men, from two very different worlds. Tyson is from the rough streets of Trentan, a crime-ridden, drug-infested, inner-city neighbourhood. Joey is from the affluent northern suburbs, a community of privilege and opportunity. The worlds of these two young men collide through a chance encounter, and as a result, they begin to question their life situations – which are at critical points. This connection sparks a shared journey of self-development; one which brings about necessary changes for both men.
The story has a self-help thread throughout, which is inspired by the author’s personal experience of living with anxiety and depression. The text conveys the truths that enabled him to rise out of suffering, and to live a life of peace and fulfilment. The teachings are centred on the concept of “present moment awareness”, and how this can be applied to everyday life.

Author’s email: emb.iwrite@gmail.com
Fantasy and science fiction have always been my favorites. I grew up with the stories. Especially those from the era of dime novels and genre magazines, the time when both fields were deemed fringe areas of fiction. Stories that spark the imagination and bring a reader to worlds and concepts beyond his reality. Though I have to admit, fact is fast catching up with science fiction.
I write fiction anchored on a familiar fact – be it mythology, historical events, existing mythos, or even a physical feature. Something that one knows exists in the real world. It makes immersion in the grand adventure easier and more enjoyable. A book may be an author’s creation, but it doesn’t mean there couldn’t be a common point of reference between the writer’s story and the reader’s experience. Or even between readers.
I started writing as a hobby. On free serialized novel websites. For the pleasure of writing and sharing one’s stories. I was fortunate that other people found them engaging and enjoyable. To my readers, thanks!
There are innumerable worlds out there. Explore, let your imagination fly. Unlike the protagonists in the stories, there is no dark Elder god, a tentacled monstrosity, a stabby assassin, a vampire or ten, or a vengeful deity waiting outside your door. Nor will opening a book suck you into a separate dimension. Maybe.
Enjoy the voyage. Have fun.

Is it even possible, after what’s Lucy’s done? Will she get a chance to rid herself of the stain of revenge, and find her way back to her true self – a young girl just looking for love and acceptance – or is her soul lost forever?

Along the Darksome Road by J.J. Maxwell
About Along the Darksome Road by J.J. Maxwell
Even with its cover faded and torn, Stephanie felt like she just had to buy that century old childrens book, because penciled inside the front cover is the name and address of the young girl who had owned it so long ago.
When she gets home, she randomly types the girl’s name into the search bar of her tablet to see if there’s any information about her on the net, but each click on the search results leads Stephanie and her family ever deeper into the details of the brutal murder of a young American college student in a beautiful Swiss valley.
This is the stunning account of how the innocent purchase of an antique book led a family to unearth headlines about a crime that captured the public’s imagination on both sides of the Atlantic during the autumn of 1932, the exemplary investigation and pursuit of the killer by the Swiss Police, and the crucial support given to the victim’s younger sister by the staff of the American Embassy and the people of the Swiss valley.

Companion Gardening by Lorraine Davidson
About Companion Gardening by Lorraine Davidson
If gardening is a hobby of yours, you’ve probably come across the term “companion gardening” or “companion planting” before. In simple terms, this refers to the simultaneous use of different plant species that are mutually beneficial to one another. Companion planting is an age-old science that has long been used by farmers to enhance their crops and boost land productivity. Not only is this method much safer and more natural than using fertilizers and pesticides, but it’s much cheaper in that it doesn’t require extra products. In this book, I’m going to introduce you to several different companion planting methods, including nurse cropping, container gardening, the three sister method, and much more. I’ll also explain how companion planting works to attract beneficial insects while deterring detrimental pests. And finally, so that your companion planting efforts will reward you with the best results, I’ll also cover how to properly plan out your garden. With all this information to learn, what are you waiting for? Download this book now and let’s get started!

Body Dysmorphia by Judy Stromberg
About Body Dysmorphia by Judy Stromberg
Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) or dysmorphophobia is categorized as a chronic mental illness or anxiety disorder characterized by extreme concern about one’s own physical appearance. If you have BDD, then unfortunately it’s only natural that your social life, career, family, and interpersonal relationships will suffer. You even tend to neglect your responsibilities because you have a different priority in terms of worrying about your appearance.

How to Be Attractive: The Science of Attractiveness and How to Be Attractive
About How to Be Attractive: The Science of Attractiveness and How to Be Attractive
We are taught not to judge a book by its cover. Try as we might to live by those words, however, the fact is that we can’t help but do just that — judge others by how they look, that is. Personal experience has taught us that others judge us by how we look, after all. And while some of us are born with model-good looks, the sad fact is that not all of us are so genetically gifted. Fortunately, science, as well as anecdotal evidence, shows that there is far more to attractiveness than mere looks — which is great news for all of us. This book will cover in detail what science has to say about physical attractiveness to better understand how the human mind and physiology work. Also in this book I’ll divulge some fool-proof tips and tricks that have been proven to tip the scales in someone’s favor — someone who’s not a cover model, that is.

BIG: A Little Story About Respect And Self-Esteem
About BIG: A Little Story About Respect And Self-Esteem
Sometimes It Takes So Little To Be BIG.
“A giant of a fable aimed at kids who frequently feel small, overlooked and like they just don’t matter.” Rating: 5.0 stars from Readers’ Favorite
Circus Wilson has many famous performers: jugglers, acrobats, lion-tamers, and clowns galore. Fire-eaters and knife-throwers thrill the spectators at every small village when the circus comes to town. Lee is one of the most talented of artists. He is a juggler extraordinaire and an acrobat who has mastered the four-time somersault among his other skills, but Lee has one problem.
He is little.
Lee is a flea, and while he wears sparkling and distinctive yellow pants, the audience never really can see him, only those pants. Lee doesn’t care that he isn’t the fastest or the most dangerous or even the funniest act in the circus. He just wants to be seen. He wants to be big.
One day he takes a decision that will change his life forever.
See how Lee’s defection causes so much uproar in the Circus Wilson. Lee does matter, and watching Director Wilson as he searches for Lee is entertaining indeed. Where could a flea be hiding, anyway?
The vivid color illustrations of this book make reading very easy and funny. The text is simple and partly repetitive, suitable for early age learning. A book to help children who feel overlooked and like they just don’t matter.
For kids ages 3+.

The Wooden Indian Resurrection: Coming of Age in Middle Age
About The Wooden Indian Resurrection: Coming of Age in Middle Age
Three girlfriends, one betrayal, three decades of bitterness, and one showdown that changes everything in this resurrection of a beaten-down woman who discovers “that we must face – not run from – our deepest fears.” Jean Snedegar, BBC Radio and West Virginia Public Broadcasting.
Deborah, a modern Native American, is as dead as the wooden Indian she impersonates at work. She festers with bitterness from a stab-in-the-back by white high school girlfriends that led to her arrest and exile, and the shattering of her romance with a white boy she secretly planned to marry. Years pass, and Deborah’s former girlfriends discover her and mysteriously beg for help. No way will she help them, but if she confronts them, will she finally be free from her past? And after wasting her life, is it too late to become who she’s meant to be?
Deborah’s search for wholeness is a journey of coming of age in middle age, of realizing she can love passionately again. Her redemptive path leads to a thrilling ending that leaves readers with the hope that their lives, too, can be transformed.
The manuscript won awards from Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers and Pikes Peak Writers and is perfect for readers of Jamie Ford and Sue Monk Kidd. Amazon categories: women’s fiction, historical fiction, inspirational fiction, literary fiction, and wholesome romance.

About Identity Theft Protection: How to Prevent Identity Theft and Credit Card Fraud
Approximately nine million people in the U.S. become victims of identity theft every year. Identity theft happens when the personal information of an individual, such as their name, address, phone number, Social Security number, and financial account information is obtained and used by another person in order to commit crimes. Using the stolen identity, the thief can open up lines of credit, purchase a car, take out a mortgage, and acquire credit cards to use for shopping. In the case of credit card fraud (the most common type of crime related to identity theft), the thief uses a person’s credit card information to make purchases, including gadgets, clothes, plane tickets, cars, houses, and everything that the credit limit will allow. And in today’s digital world, cases of identity theft and credit card fraud have increased exponentially. Many people today make most of their transactions online, and without the necessary safety measures concerning the use of the internet. Sensitive information such as PIN codes, passwords, bank account numbers, Social Security numbers, and credit card information can easily be accessed and stolen. The good news is that identity theft can be prevented, and there are things that you can actively do to protect yourself. This book will divulge everything you need to know in order to prevent thieves from gaining access to your personal information and using it to commit fraud and other crimes. And if you suspect that your identity has already been stolen, this book can help, as it also includes useful information on what you can do about it.

About Release!: A Walker Brothers Novel (The Walker Brothers Book 1) By J.S. Scott
Author Note: Although this series is loosely connected to The Billionaire’s Obsession series, it stands alone and can be read without reading The Billionaire’s Obsession series. But this is a steamy alpha billionaire romance, so skip it if you dislike sensual romance and explicit language.
****Includes The Billionaire’s Obsession ( complete Simon & Kara’s story) as a bonus***
Trace and Eva’s story:
My name is Eva Morales, and I was one step away from being homeless when Trace Walker came into my life. I want to hate him because of my past, but I end up making what I consider a “devil’s bargain” with the arrogant young billionaire instead. Really, I have no choice. It’s either take the work he’s offering or starve, and I’ve been hungry long enough.
I didn’t think being his fake fiancee for the holidays would be a difficult job, but it ends up more complicated than I ever imagined, and I see a whole new side of Trace once he lets his guard down. He’s haunted by his past–just like me, But there are things I can never tell him, secrets I don’t dare reveal.
Eventually, I find myself in a difficult situation because our volatile attraction to each other won’t be denied. Should I tell him the truth, or do I finish the job he’s paying me for and walk away with my secrets still hidden, my pride still intact? He’s paying me enough for this job to take care of myself once it’s over. I’ve always been alone, and I always thought I preferred it…until I met Trace. I’d have to put everything on the line to be honest with him, but he very well might be the first man who is worth the risk. Honestly, I’d be endangering more than just my pride. I could handle feeling like a loser, because I’ve pretty much felt that way my entire life. What really terrifies me is being vulnerable and the possibility of ending up with a shattered heart….

The History of Soccer: Gain a New Appreciation for Soccer Through Its History, Evolution, and Development Into the Sport It Is Today
About The History of Soccer: Gain a New Appreciation for Soccer Through Its History, Evolution, and Development Into the Sport It Is Today
By far the world’s most popular sport, soccer – also known as ‘association football’ – has some 250 million registered players in more than 200 of the world’s countries. This book explores the vast and rich history of soccer, the evolution of the game, as well as some interesting historical events which contributed to sculpting the game into what it is today. Gain a new appreciation for the game of soccer as a spotlight is shone on its very early (and often disputed) beginnings, its contemporary history as a formalized sport, how money affected the course of the game’s history, and what the records reveal about soccer’s super-powers. A game which has managed to touch the lives of half of the world’s entire population has incredibly rich history that extends far beyond the field, so expect plenty of interesting off-field (but related) historical information and stories within these pages as well. An attempt to cover the entire history of soccer in detail would require an entire set of encyclopedias, a dedicated museum, and a dynamically expanding cloud-storage server, so our focus will be limited to only the most pertinent and interesting events that have formed this incredible sport.

Gamophobia: An Essential Guide to Understanding Why You’re Scared to Get Married and How to Overcome Gamophobia
About Gamophobia: An Essential Guide to Understanding Why You’re Scared to Get Married and How to Overcome Gamophobia
Marriage is a life-changing decision that affects the outcome of the rest of your life, so it’s understandable for someone to be apprehensive or experience cold feet as the big day approaches. However, if just the thought of marriage alone sends shivers up your spine, or sends you running for the hills away from every promising relationship, well then, we might be looking at a more complicated problem. If you haven’t heard the germ ‘Gamophobia’ before, it’s just a fancy way of describing the irrational and uncontrollable fear of marriage, and sometimes the fear of commitment in general. Although it may sound silly and like something you can eventually overcome on your own when “the right person” comes along, it is actually a debilitating and destructive condition that needs to be addressed head-on because it may prevent you from ever experiencing the fulfillment and happiness that can accompany an intimate connection and partnership with another person. Taken to the extreme, it can also sometimes drive people to substance abuse or even inflict intense emotional pain or depression. The root causes for gamophobia generally include genetics as well as having experienced traumatic events that may have involved issues relating to marriage, for example, being a witness to the divorce of your parents. If all of this information sounds dire and tragic, then I’ll finally give you the good news: Fortunately, when acknowledged and addressed, gamophobia can indeed be treated and overcome. That’s exactly what this book is designed to help you get started doing, so download it now, and you may soon find yourself a lot more accepting towards the idea of committing yourself to another person by getting married.

How to Be a Good Girlfriend and Keep Your Boyfriend Happy: An Essential Guide to Being the Perfect Girlfriend and Creating a Successful Relationship
About How to Be a Good Girlfriend and Keep Your Boyfriend Happy: An Essential Guide to Being the Perfect Girlfriend and Creating a Successful Relationship
Why should the women of today — who want to be treated equally to men — be motivated to go above and beyond in their relationship? The truth is, some women don’t feel any desire to go out of their way to make their partners especially happy, and that’s their prerogative. But contributing that bare minimum to a relationship makes you far from perfect, and makes the relationship far from perfect too. Even more so now that 21st century men are increasingly realizing their own shortcomings and attempting to correct them. Luckily, you’re here reading this now because you probably aren’t among the status quo: You’re ready to take a path of self-improvement for the benefit of your relationship and the happiness of your boyfriend. Kudos!
The perfect woman (in the opinion of most men) is an assertive and confident leader at work, a gourmet chef at home, a goddess in bed, and a master organizer. She’s not only skilled, intuitive, intelligent, well-read, witty, and positive, but can put her hair in a pony-tail and whoop ass better than the best, when needed. Sure, this massive expectation isn’t exactly fair, but that’s the meaning and price of perfection. Getting into a relationship is easy, but keeping a relationship happy is hard work — even more so if you wish to be the unequivocal owner of your man’s heart and mind.

Joie de Vivre: How to Enjoy Life with Passion and Exuberance ~ ( The Secret Behind Joie de Vivre )
About Joie de Vivre: How to Enjoy Life with Passion and Exuberance ~ ( The Secret Behind Joie de Vivre )
The French believe that life should be savored and enjoyed leisurely. This concept, of “joie de vivre,” is ingrained in their culture and is a big part of who they are as a people. In contrast, today’s fast paced American lifestyle is all about checking items off of today’s to-do list so we can get started on tomorrow’s without falling behind. Every hour of every day is filled to the last minute with activities prioritized in order of urgency and importance, with little-to-no room to stop and smell the roses. For those of us stuck in this daily grind, trying to finish our truckload of tasks while knowing there’s another truckload around the corner, the concept of “slowing down” is as foreign as, well, French.
Joie de vivre asserts that existence is not just about going from point A to point B. Rather, being alive is part of a great adventure, an experience of which every moment should be enjoyed. And although this concept may, at first, sound irresponsible and indulgent, I’m going to show you how you can actually benefit hand-over-fist by adopting this concept in your life. In this book, you will come to understand the underlying philosophy behind how the French have decided to live, and more importantly, you will learn how to incorporate joie de vivre into your day-to-day life to find pleasure and joy in the simplest of things.

One of my fondest memories as a child is sitting on my grandmother’s doorstep with my great uncle and having him tell me all about space. That moment led to a lifelong obsession with the universe and an insatiable curiosity. Growing up in a small Idahoan town with not a lot to do required a lot of imagination. Outside was my playground and adventure blossomed everywhere I went, even if it was only in my head. The library was another of my havens and it was only a matter of time before I began developing my own ideas. To this day I have notebooks filled with questions and ideas that I still reference. That “What if” curiosity is still present, and now I explore my curiosity through my own writing.

ADHD in Adults: How to Take Charge of Adult ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder in Adults)
About ADHD in Adults: How to Take Charge of Adult ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder in Adults)
There is often a stigma attached to people with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), and sometimes even discrimination in the workplace. This has led us to create this eBook about the neurological condition known as ADHD. Our main objective is to show you that a person suffering from this condition is just a victim, one who with a little understanding can mingle well and enjoy life tremendously. Perhaps only due to ignorance, many people associate ADHD with children and could never imagine that it can be carried on into adulthood. The truth is that ADHD may be more common in children than in adults but adults can show signs of it too. ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder) is a lifelong disorder. Understanding ADHD in adults will equip you with the knowledge of how to identify it; as well as how to help or relate to someone suffering from adult ADHD. This eBook will enrich your knowledge of adult ADHD from the basics of what ADHD is to the treatment of it in adults.

Finding Happiness by Reno Jacoby
About Finding Happiness by Reno Jacoby
Happiness is a seemingly evasive emotion that we all tend to “pursue” in life, but unfortunately, most people never actually achieve it – at least not in a true and lasting form. Why is that? Often times, we have a preconceived notion about what might make us happy, whether it be material wealth, power, spirituality, etc. However, even the wealthiest, most powerful, most religious people can be miserable in life, therefore these general ideals cannot be the real source of universal happiness. So what exactly is it that can make us happy? What if I told you that, despite of all of your current circumstances or conditions in life, happiness is really just an internal attitude that you can decide to adopt, independent of all external factors?

I have grown fond of cooking since childhood and now I work in a restaurant as a cook. In each recipe, I invest a part of my soul. I can call my work a real art. Most of the invented recipes I put in different books with detailed descriptions. I represent the kitchen, the basis of which is the love of good food, to the food that gathers people close to the Sunday table, the food that makes you languish in anticipation of the pie from the oven, the food that remains in your memory for a long time.
Voices from the Civil War: North and South, Men and Women, Black and White
About Voices from the Civil War: North and South, Men and Women, Black and White
What was it like to live during the Civil War? Not only for soldiers but for their wives and children, mothers and fathers, sweethearts and friends? How did people in the North and in the South cope with four years of fear and misery, death and destruction?
In Voices from the Civil War, twenty-six men and women, black and white, young and old tell their stories. Grounded in historical fact, these fictional characters relate how they struggled to survive the greatest conflict in American history.
Among the voices are an Alabama man who fought for the Union, a newly emancipated slave who refused to leave the plantation of her life-long bondage, a woman who lived in a cave with her starving family during the siege of Vicksburg, a soldier who survived the nightmare of captivity in a POW camp, and a woman who secretly turned to prostitution to support her disabled veteran husband and their child.

My parents had a restaurant, and from thirteen or fourteen I knew that I would be a cook. I can do whatever I want, I have complete freedom, but for a chef it’s very important. I have been cooking since I was 13 years old – frying potatoes, doing some trivial things. And I always knew more than my friends. However, I built a further career consciously. Even while studying, I realized that I prefer cookery to the confectionery business. Then she worked with Japanese and Mexican cuisines. Now I’m actively learning Italian cuisine. I cook pasta with mild cheese and basil pesto sauce. People are surprised when they try it. But it’s very tasty. I do not regret spending time preparing food. I chose the cook’s profession, because he always liked delicious food. I never get bored when I cook checked or come up with new dishes.

The Moctezuman
“It’s The Martian meets The Evil Dead… at the end of the Aztec Empire” – Actual Review
I wish he’d hurry up and sacrifice me, like I planned it. Otherwise I might die in this dank temple. But here he stands, nephew to the emperor of a quarter-million Aztec warriors, and Moctezuma does the one thing I don’t want: he waits.
I’ve been locked up on this planet too long. If I don’t get home soon, I’ll be one dead alien. All I really need is for Moctezuma to drag me up to the altar, pluck out my beating heart, maybe coat his forearms with my blood if he has time.
Is that so much to ask?
I wonder…Maybe Moctezuma knows what I really am. I mean, I look human. At least I think I got all the head-holes in the right places.
But what if Moctezuma knows about the ancient astronauts?
What if, this time, my adventure is over?
