Happy Wednesday, fellow reading addicts!

I was hoping the last two months of the year would slow down just a little bit, but time seems to be going by even faster this month. Of course, I’ve been super busy with a ton of things – preparing for the conference, working on my presentation, finishing my book, formatting and reformatting… I can’t imagine where all my time has gone. But it’s worth it.

You may notice we’ve had a lot of boxed sets the last few weeks and it looks like it will continue maybe through the end of the year. Some are new, some are old, but we hope if you missed some in the past that you can pick them up this time around.

Non-reading related questions. Thanksgiving is fast approaching. Do you take advantage of Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales? Is there anything you have your eye on that you’re hoping goes on sale?

Enjoy and happy reading!

The fringe colonies. Where lives are made…Or broken.

Get the complete series to start this action-packed Sci-Fi thrill ride!

Life in the fringe colonies is tough, but to Dante it’s home. Captain of the Xeartais crew, he leads a ragtag bunch of miscreants just trying to survive. But not everyone at the local space station plays fair. When Dante decides to unite several crews in an alliance it causes a ripple effect that will either tip the scales for good or end in ruin.

Kit is running from the stifling life others wanted her to lead. When she arrives on Ephren and runs into the Xeartais crew, she wonders if she’s finally found somewhere she belongs, but she brings her own issues with her, and life in the alliance isn’t exactly safe.

Can Kit and Dante keep the alliance mates safe from pirates, alien threats, and all the usual dangers of a colony, or have they both gotten in far too deep?

With the pirates uniting behind a single leader as well, only one thing is for sure: Those who can fly, must. And every good mate counts.

Ghouls and Grimoires

Dead men tell no tales.

I can make them talk.

An echo remains in the blood.

I can tap into it. I can speak to the dead. 

It might be dangerous, but what choice do I have? 

The vampire king might be in hell, but he still desires me.

He’ll stop at nothing to make me his.

I refused to be his queen on earth.

Does he really think he can compel me to become his queen in hell?

ABOUT THE BLOOD WITCH SAGA (SERIES)

I’m Hailey Bradbury: Hedge Witch and Vampire.

My sire was staked moments after I was turned.

As a youngling, the Voodoo Queen took me in. She taught me her art.

I’ve been working with the new Mistress of the Vampire Council.

She trained me in the ways of vampirism, the path of the night.

Witchcraft + Voodoo + Vampirism = what I call bloodwitchery.

Most witches won’t mess with the power latent in blood.

It’s dark. It’s dangerous. But if you can master it…

You can harness the power of life itself.

The Wrath of Caine

Mess with a werewolf, prepare to get bit. Mess with my patients, prepare to die.

The Witch of Endor went too far.

It was one thing when she warped my mind, but now she’s threatening the health and lives of my patients.

Is it wrong to kill someone who is supposed to be dead, anyway? 

I’m done debating the ethics of it all.

It’s time for the witch to die.

The Vilokan Asylum of the Magically and Mentally Deranged is a paranormal romp, diving into a world of voodoo, werewolves, vampires, and magic. Dr. Cain is a snarky werewolf, an Old Testament character brought to life in a modern day fantasy setting. Readers of Monroe’s Legacy of a Vampire Witch or The Legend of Nyx have met Dr. Cain before. Now, we get a deeper look into the world of magic and mayhem that is the Vilokan Asylum.

Get Rich Or Die Trying

A new species of Death walking?

Dr. Christopher Lin works out a possible solution to the phantom Chimera which is slowly tearing down Wall 01. A wall which protects humanity from that which is inside the ZOO.

Ambassadors and Scorpions

What will it take to keep a good man down?

Wallace has received orders, but can they be serious?

Other governments want in on the action in the Sahara.

Sometimes, the ZOO is too much for just a few countries to control. Even with the big boys of the world working together, it is highly questionable if they can protect every inch of the walls surrounding the ZOO.

Nightmares from Hell

IN THE ZOO, THE ENEMY MAY WALK ON TWO FEET AND THE NIGHTMARES ARE REAL.

WHAT ELSE WILL IT TAKE TO KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN?

Wallace has had enough thrown at him that it is creating chinks in his “orders are orders” armor.

Ordered to go back into the ZOO to fight mercenaries, he is given a rough group to command.

Calm Before the Storm

SOMETHING IS INSANELY WRONG IN THE ZOO.

BUT WHAT ELSE IS NEW?

Given his leftover doubts from his conversation with the German ambassador, will Wallace follow orders?

One Crazy Pilot
One Crazy Rescue
One Crazy Machine

Reprobates:

 

With nothing in their future, Former US Marine Charles, ex-SAS Booker, and ex-Australian Army Roo decide to give the Zoo a shot.

Without the contacts, without backing, without knowing what they are getting into, they scramble to get their foot in the door to even make rent in one of the most dangerous areas in the world.

With high rewards comes high risk. Can they learn on the job, where failure means death?

Relying on their training, they will scratch, claw, and take the most dangerous jobs to prove themselves, but will it be enough? Can they fight the establishment and the Zoo at the same time?

And what the heck’s up with that puppy they found?

Degenerates:

Succeed, and riches will follow.

Fail, and the Zoo will extract its revenge in its own permanent fashion.

Redeemables:

NOTHING KEEPS A MAN AND HIS ‘DOG’ APART…

But what if the dog is a man-killing beast made up of alien genetics?

Thor is with his own kind as they range the Zoo, but something is missing for him. Charles is with his own kind as they work both inside and outside the walls of the ZOO.

Once connected, the two of them are now split apart by events that overcame each.

Or are they?

Follow the BOHICA Warriors as they continue to make a name for themselves as the most professional of the MERC Zoo teams. So much so that people on the outside have heard of them.

Follow Thor as he asserts himself in his pack.

Around the Zoo, nothing remains static, and some things might converge yet again if death doesn’t get in the way.

Thor:

The ZOO wants to kill THOR. Humans would want that as well, but they don’t know what he is.

What is Charles going to do?

Charles brings Thor to Benin, where he can safely hide out until things calm down. Unfortunately for both of them, that takes them out of the frying pan and into the fire.

The Pendjari National Park isn’t the Zoo, but lions, elephants, and rhinos are not pushovers.

When human militias invade the park, Thor and park ranger Achille Amadou are trapped between the proverbial rock and a hard place. How do you protect the park and THOR Achille has to hide justwhat Thor is…

Can he hide what Thor is when Thor makes that hard to accomplish?

Will the militias figure out what that creature is that attacks them? Waits to eat them next time.

Lonnie Gentry and the Curse of Skull Canyon

Western action and adventure author Peter Brandvold’s iconic Lonnie Gentry series comes together like a stick of dynamite and a match to blow readers away!

In book one, Lonnie Gentry, life has not been easy for young cowboy Lonnie Gentry. He and his mother live alone, working hard on their remote Colorado mountain ranch. Now the thirteen-year-old must travel over perilous mountains to return money stolen by his mother’s outlaw boyfriend. It’s a man’s job. And it’s going to take a man – and the woman the man loves – to see it through.

In The Curse of Skull Canyon, everyone in the Never Summer Mountains knows about the ancient Indian curse on Skull Canyon in the highest, remotest reaches of the range, not far from the ranch young Lonnie Gentry shares with his mother and infant half-brother.

When a man’s agonized wail lures him into the canyon, he finds a youth only a few years older than himself dying from a gunshot wound. Later, when savage men pour into the remote canyon, apparently searching for something they’re willing to kill for, Lonnie learns the extent of Skull Canyon’s horror.

Blood, as she comes to realize, is the road that carries her between times. Her strange ability began as a teenager while restoring an old gun. She slipped into a trance and witnessed an event in the weapon’s history. Later she was drawn closer and found herself back in time where the guns story was unfolding, and she was no longer herself…but instead she became the person holding the gun….
