The Never Hero: Chronicles of Jonathan Tibbs [Kindle Edition]

T. Ellery Hodges (Author)

What if when you died, no one would ever know you were all that stood between man and the enemy?

When Jonathan Tibbs awakes in a puddle of his own blood, there isn’t a scratch on him to explain it. In the weeks to follow, he comes to find he’s been drafted for a war with a violent otherworldly species. A war that only he can remember. Now, the man Jonathan imagined himself becoming is no longer the man who can endure his future.

The first installment in this science fiction action adventure series, The Never Hero is a gritty and honest look at the psychological journey of a man forced to forge himself into a weapon. Abandoned with little guidance, and at the mercy of a bargain struck far outside his reach, Jonathan races to unlock the means to surmount the odds, and understand the mystery behind a conflict raging outside of time and memory.

In the end, the real question is what Jonathan is willing to become to save a planet that will never see his sacrifice.

Release will be the second week of October.

From the International Bestselling Author, Saxon Andrew comes his newest book, Nemesis-Revenge is Best Served Hot.  Two genetically modified human babies have been taken to the Choten-Zan Monastery to be raised to adulthood.  The ancient priests have agreed to teach them their best hand-to-hand combat techniques and develop their speed and reflexes.  The two children are sent away on their eighteenth birthday with a small warship and space armor that was left for them by the one that delivered them to the Zan.

That’s all they received when they left the Monastery and they do not know who they are or where they were born.  They kidnap a Werstag Engineer on a planet where they are attacked by hundreds of Yellow Armored Warriors.  He tells them that they are a species called human and that their attackers are from a civilization that destroyed their home world.  Grant and Cinny decide that the species that destroyed Earth will pay for their crime.  But first they have to find an invincible warship named Orion’s Sword to make that happen.

The Werstag tells them that they were created to be the Orion’s pilots and the Yellow Species knows the danger they represent.  It’s a race to see if the Raiders can kill the two before they find the most powerful warship in the universe.

A Forgotten Kitten

Many readers enjoy Star Wars-esque stories of conflict on faraway planets, while other readers tend to stick to epic romances. Few authors have managed to combine the two genres in such a seamless way as Jessica A. Kong has in her Sea-anan Saga. She has created a highly complex story with fully developed characters, and the themes explored here are inarguably adult, yet the reading level required is no more than eighth grade. A Forgotten Kitten zips along at just the right pace, allowing the reader to digest the complexity of the plot and interrelation between the characters without having to think too hard.

The story revolves around Sev, a young, handsome prince and member of a royal family who rises to become king of the Oceanan race. Sev is raised in the midst of a vicious family feud, but all seems worth it when his adoptive aunt gives birth to a beautiful little girl whom Sev falls instantly and irrevocably in love with. But when Sev’s planet collides with its own sun and collapses, he must bear the loss of his entire family, including his love as well as any memory of her.

Areo, the heroine of the story, is that little girl that Sev fell for during his childhood. She is a human-feline hybrid who has grown to hate the royal family that her soul mate hails from. She undergoes a destructive event and space travel episode similar to Sev’s, and it is not too long before she has settled her new planet and with her fellow half-bloods, created a strong, thriving society. When she is brutally attacked by Daehog, everyone in her empire is scattered throughout the universe. Where does she land but the planet that Sev is currently occupying.

What follows is a continually building conflict interlaced with one of the most fervently passionate love stories seen in these kinds of novels. Kong chooses not just to write about space travel, or war, or love, or family, or even racism; instead, she chooses to combine all of these classic literary themes into one amazing story. The result is a mysterious and ultimately deeply satisfying story that only leads to the craving for more from this gifted and astoundingly creative writer.

Reading should always be enjoyable, especially when reading escapist literature, and Kong has remembered this and accomplished it without sacrificing plot or characterization. The task of any science fiction writer is to take alien, unbelievable concepts and present them in a way that convinces the reader they are plausible in reality, and Kong has certainly hit the mark with her second novel in this delightfully mystifying series.

The Heretic (Beyond the Wall Book 1) [Kindle Edition]

Lucas Bale (Author)

“World building is one of Bale’s strengths and he has created something which draw readers in and hooks them for the next instalment. It’s the easy familiarity of several other genre favourites, ranging from A Song of Ice and Fire to Farscape and Star Wars, alongside a wonderful Firefly vibe, and coupled with Bale’s unique and ambitious take, that makes The Heretic an enjoyable and compelling read.”

Michael Patrick Hicks, author of Convergence

“Lucas Bale’s debut novel is gripping, suspenseful science fiction. It seizes you right from the first word, and the chase scene at the climax of the story is some of the finest writing I’ve seen in the genre.”

Alex Roddie, author of The Atholl Expedition and The Only Genuine Jones

“One to watch.”

Eve Seymour, author of The Last Exile and Resolution to Kill

“An engrossing and tense post-apocalyptic adventure. Lucas Bale delivers in his exciting and brilliant debut that does justice to the Sci-fi genre.”

Nadine Matheson, author of The Sisters

Earth is gone.

Centuries have passed since the First Cataclysm ended life on the blue planet. Humanity’s survivors are now dispersed among distant colonies, thousands of light years from the barren, frozen rock that was once their home.

A new Republic has formed – one in which freedom no longer exists. In return for the protection of the Consulate Magistratus, citizens must concede their rights absolutely. The Magistratus controls interstellar travel, access to technology – even procreation. Every citizen is implanted with a device to monitor their location, health and nutrition and emotions – perhaps even more. Organised religion is forbidden. All crime is punished by banishment, or a lifetime of penal servitude aboard the Kolyma prison fleet.

Humanity’s true history survives only in whispers of a secret archive.

Yet there are those who preach a new religion and who want to be free.

A revolution is coming…

The Heretic is the first book in the Beyond the Wall series, an epic story about the future of humanity and the discovery of the truth of its past.
