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.

Deja Vu of Love The Beginning Part One (Deja Vu Series Book 1) [Kindle Edition]

Carol Cadoo (Author), Vickilyn Crawford (Editor), Torrie Cooney (Illustrator), The Gentle Key Formatted for Kindle (Translator)

Jazz Kelly woke up one morning to find herself the unwitting butt of a morning show punch line, on a local radio. It began the start of a journey, she never expected. Prior to the radio show she was living, life on training wheels. Instead of looking forward to the most important book tour of her short career, she struggled to stay in the driver’s seat. The wheels were off, she was surrounded by new personalities including; a powerhouse boss, a bad-boy writer and his lunatic assistant. Jazz’s greatest fear was that her career would end before it began…or worse, she would become the next good-time girl of the bad boy and just as crazy, as his lunatic assistant. It was a question of regaining control – and staying sane.

The Music Box [Kindle Edition]

She always told herself she would someday find a man as wonderful as her father, if that man existed at all, but his suicide on her fourteenth birthday left her disillusioned and alone.

Thirteen years later, estranged from her mother who blames her for his death, Heather longs for understanding. In hopes of finding it, she escapes the city and settles in a small South Carolina town to write his story. There, she meets Matt, a young man struggling to come to grips with his own father’s legacy.

Despite a growing attraction, she keeps him at arm’s length until the tune from a tiny music box reveals a common bond that pulls them together and sets them on a journey of discovery that will challenge everything she believes about herself and about the man she thought couldn’t possibly exist.

On top of this, there is a storm brewing and the darkness of December brings around an unexpectedly heavy snowfall that further challenges the situation. With a terrible secret discovered, how can retribution and justice be achieved?
