  The Eyes Have It

  What if ordinary language hid extraordinary secrets? 
  Philip K. Dick’s delightfully strange short story The Eyes Have It takes a single misunderstanding and spirals it into full-blown paranoia in the way only Dick can. 
  When an unsuspecting reader opens a simple paperback, he discovers bizarre phrases that seem to describe humans casually removing eyes, hands, and limbs as if it were nothing. Horrified, he becomes convinced he has stumbled onto a hidden truth: alien beings who can detach their body parts walk among us — and the book is their confession. 
  What follows is a hilarious and unsettling descent into misunderstanding, speculation, and fear. With Dick’s trademark mix of satire, sci-fi curiosity, and slippery reality, the story skewers the way we interpret the world around us — and how easily imagination can outrun truth. 
  Narrated with sharp wit and perfect comic timing by Drew Caton, this short tale delivers a punch of classic speculative weirdness in just minutes. A must-listen for fans of retro sci-fi, humor with a paranoid twist, and the early works of Philip K. Dick.

  Half-bloods with Thierry's skill set are given two options. They can join the conclave's marshal program, or they can pack their bags. Turn down the job offer, and you've just shredded your residency pass for the mortal realm and booked yourself a one-way ticket to Faerie. 
   
   
   
  Texas is the only home Thierry has ever known, and she's not going anywhere. Even if it means following in her notorious father's footsteps as a peacekeeper. But pinning on the badge opens her eyes to the fact sometimes fae need protection too, and that sometimes humans are the real monsters.

  In the world of this novel, said to be an inspiration for Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle, the Confederacy has triumphed and become an imperialist nation. What is left of the United States has been drained of its resources and is trapped in a depression. Hodge, a young man living in a village in rural New York with his parents, decides to head to the city to escape his otherwise inevitable future of poverty and indentured servitude. 
   
   
    
  But the specter of war between the Confederacy and the other great global power, the German Union, haunts the entire region, and a nationalist terrorist group has other plans for Hodge. Before long, he is swept up in the politics of the day and becomes involved with a beautiful physicist who is working on a machine intended to change his fate—and the fate of the world. 
   
   
    
  Long before Harry Turtledove's The Guns of the South, Bring the Jubilee was the first novel to pose the question "What if the South had won the Civil War?" A counterfactual classic, it was included in renowned science fiction editor David Pringle's list of the 100 Best Science Fiction Novels.

  Praise for The Hidden Blade, Book 1 of Sangwheel Chronicles: 
  "The Hidden Blade is one of those rare gems you find in the Independent Publishing arena. Well written, imaginative, with great characters and a wonderful story." - Maxwell Alexander Drake, creative writing teacher & author. 
  "Fantasy can be a tough genre--making both an engrossing world and characters that a reader really cares about is a hard balance that most authors struggle with. Mullany, however, excels at both. The world is vibrant and creative, with a feeling of depth and history that is shown in hints rather than pages on pages of exposition. The characters are human and relatable and, perhaps most importantly, adults." - Kathleen Reedy, Goodreads Review
