BASED ON THE TRUE STORY OF THE VIETNAM VET WAR HERO, KNOWN AS THE “AMERICAN GANGSTER” WHO RAN A COVERT CIA OPERATION AND EMERGED AS VIETNAM’S ‘OSKAR SCHINDLER’
A great historical fictional work on ‘Vietnam’s mobbed-up late 1960s – 1970s Saigon, Pearl of the Orient, Vietnam, “American Gangster – Operation Beaucoup Dinky Dau”
In the best-selling tradition of the world’s master historical fiction storytellers, Mario Puzo’s, “The Godfather”; Tim O’Brien’s “The Things They Carried”; Winston Groom’s Forrest Gump; Victor Hugo’s, “Les Misérables”; Leo Tolstoy’s “War and Peace”; Norman Mailer’s, The Naked and The Dead; Gore Vidal’s Lincoln: A Novel; and Graham Greene’s “The Quiet American”
Steve Murphy, Network TV and Documentary Film Producer, Writer, and Combat Vietnam Veteran, tells the extraordinary story of a never before told, top secret covert CIA operation, known only as “OPERATION BEAUCOUP DINKY DAU”, that served as the unofficial covert Logistics operation to the CIA’s Phoenix Montagnard fighters, fighting the North Vietnamese forces during 1968-1973.
“This I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-fiction” tale has it all: a Marlboro- Man handsome Vietnam War Hero, a parade of impossibly gorgeous women, sex, spies, copious quantities of booze, drugs, and enough violence to take Arnold Schwarzenegger and his Terminator scriptwriters through several more sequels. It’s both a rip-roaring expose and harrowing.
It’s the story of the underbelly of the Saigon metropolis like few others. Corrupt Generals, shady Politicians, gangsters, prostitutes, bootleggers, opium addicts, jazz musicians, deserters, black marketeers, and your run of the mill criminals, murderers, thieves, and con artists….
Casting light on the Federal Government’s links with organized crime and how a highly decorated American MAT Team Advisor Vietnam Veteran, Johnnie Walker, known in Saigon, as “The America Gangster”, became Saigon’s most successful Criminal Mastermind, as well as the most influential “unofficial” Defense Attaché Office (DAO) “Contractor” to the CIA’s Phoenix Program, and the owner of the famous supper club and casino, “Beaucoup Dinky Dau”, and who had unparalleled connections leading all the way up to Vietnam’s Presidential palace and the CIA.
It’s a story most Americans have never heard of and shines a new and disturbing light on the role of the United States in the creation of communist Vietnam, and their treatment of the indigenous tribes that fought for the CIA’s Phoenix Program.
Johnnie Walker dominated Saigon’s War profiteering, Black Market, Money Laundering, and Drug Trafficking for all the major Vietnamese Crime Lords Generals in Saigon, as well as for South Vietnam’s President Nguyễn Văn Thiệu, and Air Marshall /South Vietnam’s VP, Nguyễn Cao Kỳ.
His astounding metamorphosis from criminal mastermind to Vietnam’s ‘Oskar Schindler’ began in 1968 when he discovers that Washington intends to abandon his friends and former MAT Team CIA Phoenix program Montagnards, “The Yards”, fighters that he’d fought side by side with as a MAT Team Advisor in Pleiku. He loved “The Yards” and the War Orphans the Yards took care of, and he was going to make sure he did the “Right Thing” for them.
It was an amazing turnabout for the once money-hungry Walker, because even though he did not begin his journey as a hero, by the time the war was winding down, he became one. He used his cunning to bend the system to help him and his over 600 Yards and 100 Orphans escape Vietnam. He was strong in the face of constant danger and double-cross, and he placed the well-being of The Yards and Orphans above his own well-being.
Based on real historical events, the suspense and intrigue of the story carries larger-than-life qualities and heightened reality. It’s about 90% historical basis and 10% creative license, but it adds up to 100% spellbinding story. It has more political intrigues, more suspense, more intense psychological analysis, and more technological know-how than anything Tom Clancy or Robert Ludlum could fantasize about.
And it has something else besides: It’s based on a true story, depicts the courage and shrewdness of an unlikely savior, a man who is a flawed mixture of hedonism and decency and who, in the presence of unutterable evil, transcends the limits of his own humanity, and the pragmatic triumph of good over evil, a triumph in eminently measurable, statistical, unsubtle terms.
Set in his adopted hometown, Saigon, Vietnam, where he spent over six years, American Gangster – Operation Beaucoup Dinky Dau, is the book that Steve Murphy has been building up to for his whole career. From its opening fusillade to its astonishing conclusion, it’s that rarest of literary creations: a book that combines spectacular elegance of craft with a kinetic wallop as fierce as the Monsoons and Tsunamis bringing torrential rains to the Pearl of the Orient.
They were here before us.
They are here now.
They will be here when we are gone.
The Autobiography of Jimmy Lee.
Jimmy Lee has led some sort of life!
He had a start in life few would have survived; he was taken into care at three years old and by the time he was eleven he had moved home ten times and attended nine different schools.
His early adolescence was hard by any standards. At fourteen, he ran away to join the Royal Navy and was sent, along with 2000 other boys, to the notorious HMS Ganges at Shotley, in Suffolk, a training establishment where a harsh regime held sway.
He had the misfortune to be placed under the care of two particularly brutal instructors, prone to drunkenness, whose continual bullying and abuse proved too much for his emerging free spirit.
Jim fought back and deserted on numerous occasions. Among his many punishments, he suffered ‘cuts’, a particularly brutal form of naval punishment. The next six years passed with regular naval detentions in the Royal Naval Detention Quarters, Portsmouth, involving exhausting routines and solitary confinements, which ended with a twelve month sentence in the infamous HM Military Prison Corradina, Malta, after which he was dismissed from the Service and returned to civilian life.
Then his troubles really began!
Winner of 20 book awards, SHOT DOWN is set within the framework of World War II in Europe and recounts the dramatic experiences of each member of a ten man B-17 bomber crew after their plane, piloted by the author’s father, was knocked out of the sky by German fighters over the French/Belgium border on February 8,1944.
Some men died. Some were captured and became prisoners of war. Some men evaded capture and were missing in action for months before making it back to England. Their individual stories and those of the courageous Belgian people who risked their lives to help them are all different and are all remarkable.
Even before the dramatic battle in the air and the subsequent harrowing events on the ground, the story is informative, insightful, and captivating. Prior to the fateful event, the book covers the crew’s training, their journey to England, what life was like on base as well as in London and the English countryside, and the perils of flying combat missions over occupied Europe and Germany.
Through personal letters, oral and written accounts, declassified military documents, and interviews – all from people who took part in the events that happened over 70 years ago (even the German Luftwaffe pilot who shot down the Susan Ruth) – the stories come alive. Adding to the feeling of “being there”, are more than 200 time period photographs interspersed throughout the book.
To add background and context, many historical facts and anecdotes about and surrounding World War II are entwined throughout the book so that the reader has a feel for and understanding of what was occurring on a broader scale. SHOT DOWN is an account about brave individuals, featuring pilot Howard Snyder, set within the compelling events of the greatest conflict in world history.
An American family in crisis and how they deal with it. An aging WWII veteran with dementia, a pregnant daughter bein stalked by her meth using boyfriend, and a preteen becoming a teenager are what we see. Behind the scenes, a greater crisis is gathering as an old enemy of one of the family gets ready to take revenge from his post as manager of a security firm contracted to the NSA. By the end of the story you will be wondering who has your information and what are they going to do with it. Available in both Kindle and paperback.
The Warramunga’s War is a sweeping narrative of the friendship that forms between a young Australian army officer, Jamie Munro, and an educated half-caste Warramunga aboriginal NCO, Jack ‘Jacko’ O’Brien, during the Syrian campaign against the Vichy French in World War II. Jacko rescues a wounded Jamie after which they are conscripted in Cairo by MI6. Here, Jamie and Jacko learn about the seamy side of war in counterespionage as they track down German spies. The principal fictional characters interact with actual historical figures and events throughout the story.
As the desert war escalates to the west of Cairo, the MI6 team confuses the enemy with misleading radio messages using German codes and using local entertainers as undercover agents. On one of his day leaves, Jacko meets a beautiful young Syrian-French girl and a strong romantic bond forms between the two during his time in Cairo.
Following the end of the desert war, Jamie and Jacko are assigned to wartime intelligence work in Southeast Asia. After the end of the Pacific war, they initiate the Darwin operations of the CIS, the Commonwealth Investigation Service. On the trail of two suspected wartime German agents, they discover the agents have formed a dangerous criminal gang with an individual they had known during their time in Cairo. The tracking skills of the Warramunga are needed to finally catch up with the murderous gang in Western Australia’s Kimberley region.

EDITORIAL REVIEW-
Which line stood out from all the others in the book?
“He once confided in me that he would prefer to die standing up.” The reason for this, he was told, was “So the world would know that I managed to stay busy on my last day… or that I died trying.” In the end, Percy Miller got his wish.
The book The Plainview Lottery by Markas Dvaras is an interesting read. I found this book very reminiscent of a young adult novel I read many years ago called The Wish Giver by Bill Britain. In both stories, the authors are trying to teach the reader a lesson on human behavior. Each time the easiest route turns out to be the one of most peril. The book starts off with the introduction of mysterious strangers to a nearly perfect town. The strangers introduce a new concept, the lottery. The lottery slowly wheedles its way into everyone’s lives and brings the town to its knees creating litter, layoffs, and laziness. The town never discovers the origin of the strangers or how they were able to do what they did in the time period given. As predicted with any lottery, no one wins the enormous pile of gold and overnight the men and gold disappear. The town slowly returns to normal with a greater appreciation of what they had. The connections between the last two chapters or short stories mostly point out and reinforce those lessons that were learned and that the reader may have missed. I did find that Dvaras’ overuse of the verb ‘was’ weakened his prose just a bit. This story took a hard look at society as a whole and how “we are the generation that would rather just sit there.”
-International Review of Books
How Could a Lottery be a Mistake?
Welcome to Plainview– a town with everything going for it, and with none of the problems one would expect to see in a typical American town. No poverty, no homelessness, no unemployment– not even a litter problem.
But all that changes when five mysterious strangers show up in the town square one day, pulling a wagon-load of gold bars behind them. They’re going to run a lottery for Plainview, with the gold as the grand prize. With little discussion, Plainview readily agrees– and that’s the first in a series of hilarious mistakes.
Is the Lottery a Scam?
Now meet James Henderson– he’s an award-winning journalist for Plainview’s local paper, The Plainview Review. He suspects they are being swindled after he notices there are no winning numbers being drawn. Yet the residents of Plainview are becoming obsessed, and soon start losing their jobs while focusing on the gold bars.
Can James prove anything for his article? Can he stop his hometown from succumbing to “Lottery Fever?” Does it even matter?
A satire on economics and the human condition, The Plainview Lottery will have you rethinking how money is supposed to work.
ROCK IS DEAD THEY SAY. . . VOL. I explores rock ‘n’ roll’s history, with a focus on rock’s early ’90’s “last wave” as the National Soundtrack, before becoming the B-side to Hip Hop. Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), Dave Mustaine (Megadeth), Joey Kramer (Aerosmith), Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), and Kosmo Vinyl (the Clash’s major-domo and occasional manager) bare their rockin’ souls in never-before-published COMPLETE interviews, spurred on by the probing questions of writer Mark Barsotti, ex-music critic for Denver’s Westword, whose work also appeared in Musician, D.J. Times, Request, Livewire, Syracuse New Times, Bad News and New Times (Miami).
Highlights from the original stories intro the long form interviews, which are followed by a “Re-Listenability Index” and the writer’s current take, two decades into the 21st Century.
Barsotti’s passionate, sometimes outrageous opinions also crackle through features on AC/DC, censorship, the ’60’s vs. the ’80’s, loads of album reviews, rock’s greatest movies, and his unique take on the past and future of rock ‘n’ roll. . . if – facing the coming Great Die-Off of the ’20’s – it still has one.
But hey. . . What can a poor boy do but TURN IT UP!
“Every party plate of cocaine strapped to a midget’s head cost 10,000 days of dogged, road warrior work, as bands schlepped to gigs in overcrowded vans with no ac but plenty of beer farts and insane drummers explaining that Jackie killed JFK (or maybe it was the Masons). Rockers worked their asses of, wooing their muse and chasing the dream, even if precious few ever rose to penthouse cocaine-midget status. So who better to tell the story than the musicians themselves?”
– from ROCK IS DEAD THEY SAY. . . VOL. 1

First written while living in India (as a motion picture script) interacting with beggar children, then subsequently a church musical, R.W. Nelson has now penned No Dark Clouds as a Christian, historical fiction novel.
No Dark Clouds. An Epic Biblical Fiction – An Educational Biblical Study
If you were living in Biblical Israel as a youth or teenager at the time of Christ, No Dark Clouds brings forth the raw emotions of what a personal encounter with Jesus might have been like. If you were a slave, Roman soldier, Pharisee, even Barabbas or King Herod; R.W. Nelson, presents the reader a possible glimpse of their lives during the Passion Week, trial, and crucifixion.

No Dark Clouds brings forth a perspective of the Greatest Story ever told, that (hopefully) will motivate the reader to enhance their own personal encounters and life-changing effects of a Risen Lord.

When former Roman Legion Legate Gaius Marcus Linneus is reduced in rank to Centurion and banished by Emperor Marcus Aurelius to Tripolitania in Northern Africa, he finds his new command, a Shadow Legion, a reduced century of dishonored legionnaires, as much punishment as his dishonor. Castra-Augustus, a small fort in the southern Sahara, is under attack by an unseen enemy who takes soldiers at night, leaving only shredded clothing. He is determined to vanquish this enemy to regain his lost honor.
Gaius discovers an ancient city carved from solid rock half-buried by shifting sands. When Rashid, who claims to be a Berber salt merchant, arrives just after two more legionnaires disappear, Gaius questions him and learns the name of the ancient city – Hamad Rus, home of the Kashites who once lived East of Eden. Their long-time enemies, the Inyosh, the undead Children of Lilith, had driven the Kashites west into Northern Africa millennia earlier. Casting a spell to destroy the Inyosh, the Kashites had instead changed them into formless wraiths that killed to obtain blood for their god, Nergal. Now, the Inyosh have awakened, and Rome is at risk.

A surreal science fiction novella with unique concepts. A ship crashlands on a faraway planet, but the natives are a million years ahead of Earth, so they ignore the humans. How does the four-man (two of each) crew attract attention, survive the strange environment and discover the real purpose of their secret mission payload?

An American Story: My Family and Yours, is not only an American story, but a worldwide story—a story that shares the emotions, fears, experiences and challenges every family in the human race can relate to. It underlines the idea, that a human problem is a world problem because the world suffers from it in some way—sometimes visible and sometimes invisible.
Humanity shares the same emotions, hardships and successes because it lives in a human vacuum—a vacuum that loves, hates, forgives, suffers and dies. Families work together and families work against each other, but when faith and love conquer thought, they forgive each other and move on.
My family, is only a representation of your family, and collectively, we are a microcosm of the world family. This is why you can and will relate to this book. The author’s pain becomes your pain, and her joy makes your heart overflow. You will see faith, courage and inner peace lived because it identifies with your faith and courage. As you read, her family will be replaced by your own personal experiences with your family.

When I first began putting these thoughts to paper, I knew I wanted to base this book upon the principles and lessons that fundamentally changed me. I held no desire to include the lessons that were of commonplace knowledge or even overused by gurus in the self-help industry. Instead, I wanted to write about those teachings whose power surprised me and completely transformed how I approach situations. I needed to share the principles that changed how I view myself, and how I continue to attain visions in my own personal and professional life with people like you.
Now? I confidently believe there is no other book like this containing the steps and principles that have the power to completely shift your mindset, motivate you to take action and make the positive changes which will result in a better life for you if you allow it to. Too often, we limit ourselves with our mind and our energy cutting ourselves off at our roots before we fully have the chance to grow. This book dives into those strategies of positive thinking and positive self-talk that hold life-altering effects when we appeal to our good sides for a change. Whether it be in our day to day lives talking to people or solving problems, use this book to completely eradicate negative self-talk and replace it with positive self-talk.

I hope you can take the time to hear my story it’s been pretty hard trying to get what I’m trying to achieve off the ground.
Throughout my traumatic pregnancy and child birth I have been working days and nights to come up with a way to provide support to new mums and dads out there as we all know “ it ain’t easy “.
I had many obstacles to overcome through out my journey and at times felt alone,scared and confused. I turned to many books to try and seek help. These books were helpful with regards to how breastfeeding, labour, sleeping and parenting should feel. But I felt completely different to everything they were saying.
I knew at that point I had two roads I could choose from, one was post natal depression and the other was to tell my story, so with that I decided to start writing day and night telling my journey “ raw “ I also decided to include many medical tips and helplines which I felt weren’t focused on as much as they should be in other books and also birthing classes.
Sure there are many helpful books out there but I wanted to create something raw, true and inspirational not only for the mums feeling scared and alone like me but for the dads too as my partner struggled severely to adjust to my pregnancy, child birth and becoming a new dad which resulted in him being diagnosed with post natal depression.
There is no right or wrong way to become a parent and no one should have to feel scared and alone (like we did) on top of everything else they are trying to adjust to (bills, work, pets, life and a new BABY).
I’m currently trying to organise motherhood workshops where I provide pampering for mums and mums to be at a great price, food and drinks included and they can also use this as a time to meet people, make friends or ask medical questions! Once this is up and running my goal is to run yoga events, cooking classes and other activities for our mums!

Profit-making is different than profit-maximizing. The neoliberal model promotes profits, not investments. All personal and corporate achievement depended on state investment in roads, schools, health care, food safety, water quality and airwaves.
The future could be full of free internet books, community centers, reduced working hours, shared work, exchanging roles, cloud workers, play, exuberance and mystery! The future that is open and dynamic not closed and static must be anticipated and protected in the present, not extrapolated from the present. (cf. Jurgen Moltmann)
Small town, small-minded people, small expectations, and big A-holes.
Lilith Deville is the new enigma at Lakeside Preparatory Academy, a prestigious high school by a river and not a lake, which makes sense, not. Already she hates it despite its beautiful landscape.
Between riding her dirt bike through the sacred lands of the natives, plotting against those she meets, and holding greasy truckers at gunpoint, Lilith makes no time for love or friendship. Forever the walking mystery (read misery) of her new home and school.
That is until Nokosi Locklear catches her eye with his arrogance and a hard, toned body that she’s certain she doesn’t want to climb.
Shoved up against a locker by him in her first week, she sets him in her wicked sights.
Life is only fun when you have somebody else’s pain to focus on. So long as you stay detached. Something Lilith will find is impossible to do when it comes to Nokosi. A guy with looks but no charm. Strength but no power. Love but no morals.
With a serial killer roaming the States, taking victims one by one, a past in Nokosi’s eyes that he tries to hide, and a mother that would rather work than keep her daughters happy, Lilith finds plenty of time to spare and plenty of things to keep herself occupied.

MINDREACHER
The President initiated his highly classified VESPER project to locate powerful telepaths, “mindreachers,” rumored to have been born decades ago in South Africa and hidden around the globe.
Former SEAL and Shaolin-trained martial arts master, Major Jon Coulter, USMC, is ordered to work with a minor female telepath to find a mindreacher who can identify terrorists hell bent on destroying the United States with nuclear weapons and at the same time, determine if telepathy could be used in future combat situations. They quickly become embroiled in a perilous global search for mindreachers. Mindreacher has concepts and technology currently in research stages and used in the novel as common place.
This first novel in the mindreacher series is filled with terrorists, technology, telepathy and global adventures of the American duo battling assassins from al-Qaeda groups and their amoebic offspring who don’t want to be identified.
Will a mindreacher be powerful enough to fly over a city and find terrorists?
COMMENTS ABOUT MINDREACHER:
…I was swept off my feet by a far more complex scenario. … what startled me about this story was just how different a path it took. It is loaded with psychological and scientific intricacies that really make you wonder. For instance if a group of children are telepathic what would that mean for their learning capabilities? Their emotional and intellectual growth? Their behavior? Would they even bother to speak verbally? These questions are within the first few chapters and they don’t stop as the story picks up pace and asks even deeper questions while dodging assassins. It’s a bit like Jurassic Park but instead of dinosaurs its psychics. The science is dense and the ethical complications are thought provoking. This book will change everything you think you know about psychics. I highly suggest this to anyone who loves science fiction or is interested in psychics. Author: Theophanes Avery
A terrific geopolitical sci-fi thriller.
Mindreacher is a top-notch geopolitical sci-fi thriller that is epic in its scope, truly original and encyclopedic in its details. Irene imbues the novel with ideas that only someone with her amazing personal biography could bring to a novel of this kind. This is the second book of Irene’s I’ve read and this one, like her Mary Knew, is written with such clarity that even the most complex concepts are very easy to grasp. In Mindreacher the United States faces nuclear destruction by terrorists unless a mindreacher – a person with telepathic power – can be found to assist in locating the terrorists. Enter a U.S. Marine who adds dash and heroism to the story that expands the globe. Remarkably, at the back of the novel is a detailed glossary and five pages of references (Did I mention the novel is filled with facts?). I highly recommend this book. Author: Steve Carr
A great summer read. I think this story was unique in that it portrayed a character with extraordinary mental capabilities who embarked on a worldwide adventure to find others with similar capabilities in order to combat terrorists. I highly recommend this book. J. Worthington

Did Mary know what was going to happen to her? Yes, she did know! All of Galilee knew why Mary was born by the time she was one year old. God named, blessed, and ordained Mary to be the mother of Jesus, Immanuel, before her conception.
This biographical data about Mary was obtained from ancient scriptures. Written as a historical narrative, MARY KNEW is filled with information about angels, miracles and fulfilled prophecies that occurred within the holy family.
It includes biographical information about Mary’s parents, her birth and first three years of being secluded in her parent’s home with her diet and restrictions governed by God. At age three, she was taken to the Jerusalem Temple where she lived over a decade and was attended daily by angels. The difficulties of her parents, Anna and Joachim, are described, along with the phenomenal and beautiful birth of a God, Jesus Christ, Savior of the world. Her story remained popular because it is filled with angels, miracles and fulfillment of ancient prophecies.
The primary scriptures about Mary were written by James, the youngest son of Joseph and stepbrother of Lord Jesus. James lived in his father’s home and accompanied Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem along with two of his brothers. He was an eye witness during Mary’s pregnancy and the events surrounding the virgin birth of Jesus, Immanuel.
James and his scribes write Mary’s story. James left a signed written document verifying his testimony. The primary book he authored was the Protevangelion, a historical account of the Virgin Mary and the birth of Christ. A copy of his testimony is below.
SIGNED TESTIMONY OF JAMES: “I , James, wrote this History in Jerusalem; and when the disturbance was, I retired into a desert place until the death of Herod. And the disturbance ceased at Jerusalem. That which remains is, that I glorify God that he hath given me such wisdom to write unto you who are spiritual, and who love God; to whom there be glory and dominion for ever and ever, Amen.”
James became a chief Apostle and Jerusalem’s first Bishop of the Christians. His written testimony and other scriptures about Mary and Jesus Christ were used in the early Christian churches for hundreds of years.
Comments about MARY KNEW-A Biography of Mary from Ancient Scriptures
“Oh, friends and readers—this really is the most enchanting book I read to date this year; I hope you go out and get your own copy if you’ve not already done so. Definitely 5 stars!” Carmen Baca
“Irene Baron has put together a document that once I started reading, I could not put down! The story of Mary is written showing great research and clarity. I highly recommend this book to all that seek the life and history of Mary. It is a great book that I will make part of my Biblical reference for future use. Very well done!
David V. Wright II
“Irene Baron has produced a very accessible for all accounts of the life of Mary. It is fascinating and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I could recommend it for Christians young and old, as well as those exploring the faith and those who just want to know more about the historical figure of Mary.” Julia Wilson
“Irene Baron does something I didn’t imagine could happen, she introduced me to characters and events in the life of Mary and Christ that I had never heard of. And she backs it up with some very impressive references. This is a book that makes you wonder about the life of one of the most well-known individuals in Christian history, the mother of Jesus Christ. It’s written in a very lovely, simple style that reads like fiction (with tons of accurate historical and Biblical references). For believers and non-believers, this book is well worth the time to read it. It never hurts to learn something new.” Steve Carr
“I so enjoyed my book. I reread it often. Thank you so very much.
Sherry SunaFrank
“I learned much about Mary I never knew. Mary Knew is a beautiful book and a good read. Very impressive.”

He never expects to meet someone like Kimberly Blakeney. One glance, and he knows he’s fallen in love, until he discovers she’s a witch. A real witch. But despite that revelation, his feelings don’t change.
The only problem is, before he can sweep her off her feet, he first has to pass what she calls a “sex hex test” to prove they are meant to be together. Rick doesn’t mind, but what he doesn’t realize is that his best friend isn’t about let him fall under her spell…even if it means taking drastic measures.

Drew’s charmed life is soon shattered by devastating news, causing him to go on a ten-year transcontinental journey of self-discovery, during which he explores the nature of God and Man, the divine inspiration for many of New York’s landmarks and artistic treasures, and the relationship between the found and the lost souls passing on the street. He meets a number of memorable characters, including the young blue-haired runaway, Blue, who renounced her given name when forced to leave her Minnesota home with her girlfriend, Anna.
In time, he discovers and explains the scientific basis for the meaning of life, and is finally found, or finds himself, setting the stage for a bittersweet and memorable ending.
Mason Metcalf, vice president of the Knights of Chaos Motorcycle Club is a very bad man. His willingness to do anything for the club, his organizational genius and attention to detail having engineered a meteoric rise to power second only to the president, his club counts heavily on his skill and ruthlessness. After a brief and vicious gunfight, like the prize in a box of Cracker Jacks, the Knights pull a frantic and badly bruised girl out of a cage in the back of the SUV belonging to the dead corono of their erstwhile trading partners—spoils of war.
Snatched off the street near her university by members of a street gang, ordered like pizza by an unknown entity, young Cleone Fitzwilliam-Lunzer, heir to the controlling interest in the family company, understands she is being trafficked. However, she believes it is some machination by her uncle, who desperately wants her out of the way, or some sort of hostile takeover by a member of her board of directors. Somewhere on the high-functioning end of the spectrum, Cleone, a savant and polymath, with an eidetic memory, a conveniently accommodating conscience, and old money is transported into the desert for the hand-off. Witnessing an illicit transaction that goes badly wrong, she falls into the hands of the Knights of Chaos Motorcycle Club.
They should never have met. Their worlds do not intersect. History is full of such improbable chance meetings, as if something bored and malign orchestrates events for its own amusement.
Please be advised that this book contains graphic scenes of sex and violence.
Garenth had been awakened to retrieve an ancient artifact that was crucial to his well-being. He had few memories of what his life had been like when he had been a man. What memories that were left were filled with blood and excruciating pain.
That part of him was over now. The talisman had been taken from its sacred burial place, and it had to be returned as quickly as possible. It was up to him to follow through with his mission so he could return to another thousand years of sleep.
Brielle Van de Camp knew an extraordinary find when she saw it. The small clay figure was the key to a potentially earth‑shattering revelation about a previously unknown time in man’s ancestry. She would bet her life on it.
Unfortunately, others had gotten wind of the talisman, and they were equally determined to claim its promise for themselves. If Brielle wasn’t willing to part with the figurine, they had no compunction about prying it from her dead fingers.
They never counted on having to face the guardian of the statuette, who turned out to be more than a creature of mythology.

The Ghost Guru is the first in a series of books which represent the only major culture shift in paranormal investigation and supernatural interactions for 100 years.
This first volume: Steampunking the Supernatural, provides an overarching ethos, set of principles and a methodology for developing a new skill-set, a 21st Century approach to Spiritualism – Steampunking it if you will.
The book provides a potted history of Faith & Belief systems, Pre and Post-Victorian Spiritualism and Hypnosis & Mesmerism. The subject matter is supported by narrative from personal experiences of the supernatural, together with tasks and exercises designed to encourage growth and development of the reader’s own new skill-set. This unusual format combines memoir and exercise book in one interwoven volume.
From the outset, the elephant in the room associated with every other ghost hunting or paranormal book, is addressed – do ghosts exist or are they a figment of our imagination.
Through Hypnotherapy and Hypnosis a constant underlying thread of self-empowerment is present throughout the books’ methodology.
Evy Holden, a sexy massage therapist, struggles to keep her clinic alive by working late nights for her most demanding clients.
Sensual experimentation only scratches the surface for Evy as she transforms into Madison Riley: a SEXUAL THERAPIST who specializes in EROTIC TOUCH, COUPLES, BI-SEXUAL, and even her own brand of BDSM.
In fact, almost everything is game for Madison who begins to live a life of lavishness while making all her clients’ dreams come true…
Then came Thomas Alexander, the first man to make her dreams come true. It has to be decided which person is best for Thomas- Evy, the straight-laced clinician who uses the power of touch to repair; or Madison, the sexual deviant who can bring even the most powerful man or woman to their knees in sexual submission?
She was the child of his heart. Then she grew up to become the love of his life.
A hundred years ago, the last people of Earth landed on planet AR617b. It was their only hope after being forced to flee the dead planet that was once their ancestral home.
The native inhabitants of AR617b, known as gerons, are sentient creatures that resemble a cross between dragons and griffins of old Earth lore. When they initially tried to destroy the settlers, a deal was made to ensure both species’ survival. It was decided that each year, every five-year-old human child must take The Walk across a hundred meter field. If they don’t stop or run, they will arrive safely on the other side, and be allowed to grow up and have families of their own. But if they break the rule, the gerons will kill them. Unless, by a strange quirk of fate, a geron decides to Pair with the child, taking and raising the human as its own.
Emmala took The Walk, and found herself adopted by one of the older gerons, an immense silvery-white creature named Zonaton. For the next fifteen years, he cared for her, protected her, and loved her. But now Emmala’s real family wants her back, and they will do everything they can to have her returned, even if it means killing Zonaton, and starting an all-out war with the gerons.
What neither the settlers nor gerons realize is that there is another alien species watching and waiting for the two combatants to go into battle. Because when they do, that will be the aliens’ cue to destroy everyone and claim AR617b for their own.
Alexander Findlay explores ideas beyond character development in his first novel release. Ideas such as the clash of societies and their development as Solatus is brought to life in the throes of her invasion by the Orvinarr nations.
“There are those who would say that Anaìr Torgayl is unworthy of the office of Chief Warden. A philanderer, an alcoholic and an aspiring painter from a household in disgrace are not the qualities which his folk normally seek in a War Leader. But darker than the rumours which follow Anaìr are his deeds in battle and his actions in previous conflicts. Indeed, it is Anaìr’s past experiences which bear partial responsibility as to why he behaves the way that he does and why he paints out his anguish. Surely, one would ask: “how can a man who has found no peace within himself possibly aspire to restore peace to his homeland?” Yet when the odds are severely stacked up against the Solati people, it will take a steady combination of both courage, tenacity and creativity to stem the tide of invading Orvinarr warriors who have defiled the Sacred Motherland with their presence.”The Redemption of Anaìr” is an expressive and vivid tale which paints with words one man’s quest for deliverance.”
After the Crown Prince of Ponderia starts behaving strangely, his best friend Pettic discovers that the prince has been replaced by a doppelganger, and the real prince kidnapped.

As Pettic sets on his seemingly impossible quest, he discovers that the four lands that hold the keys are all vastly different… and more dangerous than he could have ever imagined.

The only way demons have touched Tess’s life until now was in the movie she saw when she was 7. The Exorcist scared the crap out of her then, but she managed to get over it and move on.
Now, almost 30 years later, she’s living the life…bills, a soul-killing job, and a micro-manager boss. Until the day she begins to see demons everywhere. She even seems to have her very own demon stalker. Not only that, but reality literally comes crashing down the day she discovers she can do magic. Who knew spell quakes were a thing?
Tess had settled into a very ordinary, very adult life. But it seems you’re never too old to be Chosen. Her life took a detour one crazy night and now she has the chance to explore an entire new world of magical creatures. Including one very gorgeous hunk of a golden-eyed lion shifter…
After three tours of duty, and serving the last four years overseas, Griffin Strong is looking forward to finally returning home and living out his life without bombings and bloodshed. After a 300-mile drive home, a quick trip through the car wash ends in another reality. An eerie, fog-covered reality where he is all alone…or so he thought.
With no electricity, cars that don’t function, and guns that won’t fire, Griff has to find protection for himself, but protection against what exactly? What the hell even happened? Survival instincts kicking in, he stocks up on whatever he can carry, and sets out on his own.
Griff soon learns that he’s not completely alone, although life of any form is rare to come across, but whom can he trust?
When the subway in Manhattan dumps Natalia Westfall in a snow-covered, deserted town far from New York, she’s left alone, frozen, and desperate. Hope lies in a uniformed military man, but will he want to be weighed down by a sick, weak female like her? Griff takes a chance, and it doesn’t take him long to learn she’s anything but weak.
Facing thirst, starvation, acid rain, enemies, and extreme temps–what will get them first? The odds are stacked against them, and all they can count on is each other.

The man couldn’t help himself. His captor was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her powerful eyes held his attention and made him forget that she had him confined in a basement; his hands and feet bound with duct tape. His heart raced as he meekly nodded his head ‘yes’ to the question.
After getting past the terror and discomfort, he reasoned that there was nothing to worry about. He would be missed. He had loved ones who would call the police. All he had to do was wait. Letting this woman tell him a story was as good a stall as any.
The mysterious woman weaved a tale of betrayed love and unwanted, unnatural experiments placed upon her. Of a loving wife, working on a top secret government program. Of a husband searching for love in all the wrong places. The prisoner couldn’t believe what he was being told. A descent into insanity, fueled by a jealous rage, ended with using the tools of science for torture and revenge.
With every blink of her lovely eyes, licking of her full lips, and heaving of her perfect breasts, the captor entertained a story most bizarre. Of a woman bent on teaching her cheating husband a lesson.
The prisoner wondered….”Am I next?”
“We were in a war and wanted to be tough.
We weren’t tough, we were kids.”
