  Ancient artifacts. New enemies. 
  When a strange island rises out of the sea right in front of their ship, Conor McCall and his fellow Recon Marines find themselves within sight of their new home...and fighting for their lives. 
  The Deep Ones know about Conor’s sword, and they want it. Badly. 
  Fighting their way out of the ambush, the Marines and their allies find themselves drawn into the quest for the sword’s twin, far off to the east. 
  Others want to take both ancient swords as well, and the Marines find themselves pursued by an empire propped up by sorcery and opposed by monsters and revenants that have guarded the way to the second ancient, blessed sword for ages. 
  All will find their mettle tested. 
  If they survive.

  Two of the greatest science fiction classics of all time...in one collection!  H.G. Wells (1866 -1946) - the master of the genre - created his "scientific romances" and set the standard for futuristic literature that teemed with both social commentary and a prescient view of the world to come.  Here, we present "The Time Machine" and "The War of the Worlds," two of the most popular and thrilling science fiction novels ever created...together in one volume.  First, meet The Time Traveller as he climbs into his fantastical machine and slingshots himself far into the future; so far that he reaches a point where humanity as we know it has ceased to exist and the world has become an unspeakably frightening and dangerous place.  Then...follow the Narrator as he describes the unthinkable: a deadly and terrifying invasion of Earth by the inhabitants of Mars.  The Martians enjoy the advantage of superior technological advances combined with a ruthless desire to conquer humanity and enslave them.  Can mankind survive?  Enjoy these two classics by the "father of science fiction."  This volume includes a brief biography of the author.

  There is something about the number 3.  
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. 
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes. 
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
  From their pens to your your ears.

  This recording has been digitally produced by Blake Pierce, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. A killer leaves a mysterious signature—gloves found on every victim—while an ex-con FBI agent, unwilling to play by the rules, is on a rampage, and willing to stop at nothing until justice is found….
  
  “A masterpiece of thriller and mystery.”
  —Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Once Gone)
  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
  
  FOR US is book #6 in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 7,000 five star ratings and reviews.
  
  Superstar FBI Agent Morgan Cross was at the height of her career when she was framed, wrongly imprisoned, and sent to do 10 hard years in prison. Finally exonerated and set free, Morgan emerges from jail as a changed person—hardened, ruthless, closed off to the world, and unsure how to start again. When the FBI comes knocking, desperately needing Morgan to return and hunt down a killer who seems to be obsessed with drowning, Morgan is torn. 
  
  Morgan is not the same person, no longer willing to play by the rules, and will stop at nothing this time. In a non-stop thriller, it will be a deadly cat and mouse chase between a diabolical killer and an ex-con FBI agent who has nothing left to lose—with a new victim’s fate riding on it all.
  
  A page-turning and harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured FBI agent, the Morgan Cross series is a riveting mystery, packed with non-stop action, suspense, twists and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you flipping pages late into the night. Fans of Rachel Caine, Teresa Driscoll and Robert Dugoni are sure to fall in love.
  
  Future books in the series are now available!
