Betrayal, power struggles, and a dangerous attraction – Lady Patrice O’Teague and Detective Craig Lansing are caught in the middle of a three-way fight for leadership in the Port Recovery Thieves Guild. As they navigate the treacherous world of thieves and Clans, they can’t ignore the sparks flying between them.

Meanwhile, VanDoyle has his own plans to make Vensoog a stronghold for the Thieves Guild and overthrow the Clans in power. But his tactics involve stirring up rebellion among the unaffiliated groups on Vensoog, putting even more lives at risk.
Meanwhile, Lady Ispone, Lady Katherine, and Lord Zack’s daughters, Juliette, Lucinda and Azalure, uncover Grouter’s twisted scheme and must fight to rescue their young daughters from his clutches. But with VanDoyle’s plan to overthrow the Clans and solidify the Thieves Guild’s hold on Vensoog, the stakes are higher than ever before.

Fatgirl: Origins: Part One

About Fatgirl: Origins: Part One:

A girl, her grandmother, and half a dozen radioactive doughnuts …There’s nothing that seventeen-year-old Kallie Grande-White hungers for more than to be a famous model like her mother — except maybe actually food. But that’s a small inconvenience, especially with the Model Middle America reality show holding auditions for the Next Top Heartland Teen Heartthrob Model right in Kallie’s hometown.Now that she has a chance to make her dream come true, Kallie is determined not to let anything stand in her way — not her best frenemy, Amory Franklin, not her lacrosse-playing crush, Blake Turner, and especially not the new, awkward fat kid in her computer class.And while the sudden appearance of her PhD-in-nuclear-nanotechnologist grandmother definitely throws Kallie off, the rest of the world will soon find out that it’s not over until the fat lady sings — or in this case, it’s not over until Fatgirl sits on a terrorist’s face.You’ll never look at doughnuts the same way again.Perfect for anyone who’s ever felt out of place in high school and never felt good enough for others to love you for who you are. Fatgirl: Origins: Part One is the first in a new series featuring a satirical science fiction superhero take on growing up, PC culture, and diet culture from award-winning, genre-hopping author C. S. Johnson.

Synthetic Eden

About Synthetic Eden:

When Earth falls to a devastating fungal plague, geneticist Dr. Samara Makinde joins humanity’s desperate bid for survival on DaVinci, a distant exoplanet meant to be their fresh start. But DaVinci has a secret: it harbors spores that wipe out every pregnancy, threatening to erase the colony before the next generation is born.

Samara believes she can save them with gene therapy, reengineering human DNA to live in harmony with the alien fungus. But psychologist Dr. Ayesha Basu sees only the shadow of her family’s past genetic “enhancements” that led to madness, and vows to stop Samara at any cost.

Defying the colony’s laws, Samara risks everything to secretly engineer her own child. Her daughter, Phoebe, should be a miracle. Instead, she becomes a spark for paranoia and revolt. When the ruins of DaVinci’s first settlement reveal a mass grave of genetically altered children, fear turns to fury, and the colony fractures into zealots and outcasts.
As Samara fights to protect Phoebe from those who would destroy her, a darker truth emerges: the first settlers aren’t entirely gone. Something twisted survived in the forests beyond the colony, watching … and waiting.

Now Samara must navigate betrayal, fanaticism, and an alien threat older than humanity’s second chance. If she fails, Phoebe won’t just be the last child of DaVinci; she’ll be the last child of mankind.

Neal Stephenson’s Seveneves meets Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary—with a haunting edge of Raised by Wolves.

Apollo Wept: Overture

About Apollo Wept: Overture:

In 2103, America’s last fighter ace faces his strangest mission yet.Pen “Duke” Lencoln once ruled the skies in an F-61 Mustang, defending his country against overwhelming odds. Now, after a forced career change and the dismantling of America’s military might, he’s relegated to ferrying the elite between Earth and the lunar colonies—a far cry from the adrenaline-fueled combat that defined him.But when government archivists discover the Voyager probe carrying a plaque depicting only male and female humans, a scandal erupts. In New America, where 101 genders and 68 sexual orientations are federally recognized, this “erasure” constitutes the highest crime. To save humanity’s cosmic legacy, Pen is selected to command the USS DESPAIR on an unprecedented mission: intercept Voyager beyond the solar system and replace the offensive artifact.With weeks before departure, Pen meets Rene, an elementary teacher in an illegal 1980s-themed speakeasy, igniting an unexpected connection that complicates everything. As he assembles his crew and prepares to leave Earth, Pen discovers that powerful forces in both America and China are conspiring to ensure his mission fails. Armed with little more than his fighter pilot instincts and unexpected allies—including the Second Republic of Texas and help from a relative who died before he was born—Pen must navigate political minefields, sabotage, and impossible odds.The future of Western Civilization hangs in the balance, and failure isn’t in Duke Lencoln’s vocabulary. Sometimes the most important battles aren’t fought in the skies—they’re fought in the stars.If you enjoyed Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein, The Mandibles by Lionel Shriver, and Able Archer 83 by Phillip Jennings, you’ll love Apollo Wept: Overture.

The Saurath Connection by J.M. Gray

About The Saurath Connection by J.M. Gray:

Available FREE for a limited time, Feb 12-16.

In the slums of Vyrnathys, children are disappearing — and no one with power seems to care.

Matt, a lone mercenary working far from home, arrives on Saurath with a vague assignment and no answers. Trained to uphold justice where laws fail, he quickly discovers the planet’s official channels are tangled in politics, denial, and fear.

Anika Veyr, a half-human, half-Luparan Tracker, has been fighting that same silence for months. Determined, sharp-tongued, and underestimated by nearly everyone around her, she’s the only city guard still pursuing the missing children case — and the only one willing to drag the truth into the light, no matter the cost.

When Matt and Anika cross paths in the gritty underbelly of Vyrnathys, their investigation uncovers patterns the city refuses to see, and dangers far more organized than street crime. As corruption, violence, and hidden agendas tighten around them, the unlikely pair must navigate a world where justice is messy, power is lethal, and trust is earned the hard way.

The Saurath Connection launches The Gray Knight Chronicles, a gritty space‑opera crime thriller where heroes are flawed, villains hide in plain sight, and the fight for what’s right begins in the shadows.

Content guidance: Contains mature themes including violence, systemic corruption, and human trafficking. Recommended for readers 16+.

“If you like grounded sci‑fi with sharp dialogue, layered politics, and unlikely partnerships, this will hit the same notes as The Expanse and Firefly—while carving its own identity.”

Born in Space: Unlocking Destiny by Jeremy Clift

Born in Space: Unlocking Destiny by Jeremy Clift

Seven children are born in orbit, engineered to carry humanity beyond Earth. When their mother discovers the truth and claims them as her own, she ignites a struggle between corporate ambition, scientific control, and maternal defiance—one that will decide who owns life, and who shapes humanity’s future among the stars.
“Clift skillfully navigates genre tropes, exploring artificial intelligence, corporate greed, and the ethical dilemmas of scientific experimentation with both familiarity and innovation. He subverts expectations, particularly in his portrayal of the personal costs of technological progress, where the consequences reach far beyond societal impact, striking at the heart of intimate relationships.” – The Prairies Book Review. https: //theprairiesbookreview.com/?p=20264

Illustrating Life and Other Stories

About Illustrating Life and Other Stories:

Reality bends. People break. The truth bleeds through the margins.

What do a suicidal tech bro, a mute ballerina, a trauma-soaked illustrator, and an alien-infected Scoutmaster have in common?

They’re all just trying to survive stories that won’t behave.

In this genre-mashing collection of speculative tales, nothing is what it seems, and everything matters more than you think. One moment, you’re laughing. The next, you’re gutted. Then you’re questioning whether any of this is real. It probably isn’t.

A blind woman confronts the ghost of the man who ruined her life. A grieving father finds a memory in the woods that rewrites everything he thought he knew. A blogger’s angry parenting rant collapses reality around his son’s Pinewood Derby race. A washed-up writer discovers that the AI finishing his novel might be fixing his life. A group of burned-out creatives builds an art collective in a junkyard and finds redemption in the ruin.

Some stories flirt with apocalypse. Others hold your heart in their teeth and smile politely. All of them live in the uncanny space where memory, grief, technology, and identity collide.

Darkly comic. Occasionally romantic. Always uncomfortably human.
Illustrating Life and Other Stories is Love, Death & Robots by way of Black Mirror, with the character depth of Station Eleven and the lyrical weirdness of Cloud Atlas. These stories are emotional landmines with teeth, heart, and circuit boards.

If you’ve ever laughed at the wrong moment, cried at the right one, or wondered if you’re the only glitch in the system, this collection is for you.

About The Forgotten Sky By R.M. Schultz:

Unrest smolders in a galaxy where most citizens endure the oppressive
society of the Northrite corporation.

Run by six masked council members, the Northrite exploit the powers of
Elemiscists—those with magical abilities—and keep them as indentured
servants. When a nearby sun turns blood red and begins pulsing, people
flee their homes, and the millennia-old government is plunged into
chaos. Six diverse individuals from across the galaxy become entwined in
a struggle for survival and to overthrow the Northrite corporation.

These six share a strange dream: a figure composed only of shadow,
holding the pulsing red sun in its palm. Jaycken is an audacious and
sarcastic young military recruit who dreams of harnessing Elemiscist
powers, and Rynn is a sheltered but perceptive young woman who flees her
home planet in search of her missing mother. Nyranna is a cunning
Elemiscist slave, seeking to free her people from oppression, and Seeva,
an operative and activist, tracks down a branch of the Northrite
corporation that funds poachers and decimates endangered creatures for
profit. Elion is a morbid bounty hunter, and Cirx is a medieval knight
who seeks revenge for the death of his people.

In a world where history has been erased, one woman holds the key to the truth—if she can survive long enough to share it.
After a global cataclysm wipes the slate clean, erasing centuries of culture, knowledge, and identity, the surviving civilization clings to a fabricated past designed by the ruling Unity Council.
