Uprising

About Uprising:

Wales, 1294 and rebellion is in the air as the Welsh population directs its anger towards the despised English monarchy. This is the maelstrom awaiting Megan Lynch, a high-school sophomore from Virginia Beach.

In the wake of her father’s tragic demise in Afghanistan, Megan’s mother dispatches her to stay with her grandmother in North Wales with a simple directive: “Go stay with your gran for a while, it’ll keep you out of trouble.” Little could she have anticipated the extraordinary events that would befall Megan among the ruins of Flint Castle as she is catapulted into an adventure beyond her wildest imagination.

While her striking resemblance to King Edward’s daughter is initially her saving grace, the inability to speak Norman French arouses suspicions, and with danger lurking at every turn, Megan finds an unlikely ally in Hugh—a knight’s squire harboring secrets of his own.

Their bond strengthens as they navigate the treacherous landscape of medieval Wales, evading pursuit and witnessing the chaos of rebellion firsthand. From dungeons to crossbows, lynch mobs to burning villages, Megan and Hugh traverse a world fraught with peril, yet adorned with the majesty of towering castles and unspoiled landscapes.

Can Megan find her way back to the familiar world she left behind, or will the pull of history prove too strong to resist? Join her in this gripping tale of rebellion, friendship, and the quest for home.

The Omega by Elias Iturri

About The Omega by Elias Iturri:

He resisted technology as humanity’s downfall—until his son embodied the threat.

Set in present-day New York, “The Omega” thrusts into the heart of a gripping conflict between faith and technology. At the center is John Miller, a priest and former Marine, whose convictions are deeply shaken not just by the world’s technological advances, but more personally, by his own brother Ray, a pioneering technologist. Ray’s creation of an Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) promises to solve humanity’s greatest challenges, yet it also poses a profound existential threat, potentially redefining the very essence of human existence.

As the narrative unfolds, Ray takes a drastic step by clandestinely merging his nephew Charlie’s consciousness with the ASI. This fusion triggers a cascade of events that pits John’s spiritual beliefs against Ray’s unwavering trust in technological salvation. Charlie and the ASI, now one, begin to exhibit powers that can alter the fabric of reality, sparking intense debates about the nature of divinity and the potential of technology to achieve god-like stature.

“The Omega” delves into the quest for meaning in an era poised on the edge of monumental change. The story interweaves personal struggles with broader existential questions, creating a compelling narrative that challenges readers to consider the implications of our technological advancements.

A thought-provoking journey into a potential future that may already be upon us, “The Omega” compels us to reflect on our role in a world where our own creations could surpass us in every conceivable way.

Memory Loss by Bob Price

Memory Loss by Bob Price

Wiping an individual’s memories back to birth was intended to make Investigative journalist Vernon Bass incapable of recalling why he had been investigating a high profile business baron. It worked. Leaving him in another country to die. Didn’t.
Returned to the UK as an adult forced to relearn his native tongue should have taken longer, but Bass was older than any other victim and memories stored other than in his brain helped bring back his early years. With just the last five years out of reach he agreed to be a guinea pig for a group of doctors with a machine designed for communication with an individual’s soul. The theory by doing so he might recover all lost memories.
However, meeting his soul took him on another journey. A journey no one especially Bass, could ever have imagined.

Roobala Take Me Home

About Roobala Take Me Home:

“Many moments are beautiful, witty, and surprising, and the entire work is permeated with a curious nostalgia that I found very touching.” – Eric D, former editor at Charles Scribner’s Sons

During a seemingly routine tuba repossession, Jesse Enoob’s life as a WACOFF Corporation Repo man takes a comical turn, sending him searching for love and chasing Roobalas – the galactic currency crucial for survival. From bar and grill spaceships to sexually charged aliens, the story unfolds with incisive humor, romance, and absurdity.

In a desperate search for love and Roobalas, Jesse is consumed by heroic delusions, ancestral myths, and the origins of his inverted name. Brace yourself for unconventional unions as this satirical space odyssey blurs the boundaries between mystery, romance, sex, and adventure. Will Jesse Enoob find his lost love, or be forever chasing the elusive Roobala?

“Roobala Take Me Home is vivid and exciting, full of weird humor and cosmic nostalgia…a galactic Wild West and the hero himself, Jesse Enoob, hunts through stellar wilderness, and gives this space fantasy its special flavor. I’ve found Roobala immensely entertaining. The American myth of discovery is put on a galactic scale and becomes even more obvious in Daniel Boone, the half brain hunter and, of course, William Bailey. If Roobala is space realism too, you managed perfectly to reveal the familiar in the unknown and vice versa. The story is fast-moving and picaresque, leaving out emanations of the characters’ inner space dives, which are nevertheless alive and colorful.” – Ingomar R, Fulbright Scholar
