  Sephihalé ele Janan sits in a prison cell in the southern island of Mazemoor, dreaming of escape. After months in a provisional prison for fighting for the imperial Kattakans, Janan is sponsored by another refugee who was once a part of his scattered family. Yearning to build a life on his sister's land with the dragons their people revere, the peace Janan seeks is threatened by a ruthless dragon baron who covets both Janan's connection to the earth and the battle dragon to which he is covenanted. 
   
   
   
  The conflict may drive Janan to acts of violence he hoped to leave behind in the war, and bring more death to the land Janan now calls home. 
   
   
   
  The Desert Talon is a story of two groups of people who, despite a common ancestry, have diverged so far in their beliefs that there appears to be little mutual ground—and the conflict may well start to unravel the burgeoning hopes of a country, and a man, still recovering from the ravages of war.

  When the ruthless aliens attack the outer reaches of the Federation, Humankind is forced to retreat haphazardly from dozens of conquered systems. The only chance to delay the advance of the enemy is to create hundreds of fake colonies. If that doesn’t work, the Fleet will be forced to face the ma’lahn in a series of open battles, which can lead to its annihilation. Politicians, however, do not care about the consequences. Their goal is to preserve power, even at the cost of billions of lives. The headquarters of the third metasector must meet the requirements of the Council on the one hand, and prevent the destruction of the only force that is able to defend Humankind on the other. But this war has another—human and personal—dimension: Major Darski must fight to save the colonists that he left on Ulietta…. Edge of Extinction is book three in The Fields of Long-Forgotten Battles series.

  Stone - You know you're lonely...

  A heartfelt story of the old west, the way you never heard. 
  Rhone lived his whole lonely life on the outskirts of the worn out back-country town of Skragmoore, until the day he picked up a pretty rock from the river. 
  That one simple action changed his entire world.  
  Stone, the ages old crystalline entity, knew a tremendous amount about most things, but virtually nothing about people. Rhone quickly found that knowing by thinking, and knowing by doing, were not the same thing at all. 
  When Commissioner Dodge heard of an interesting happening, and sent his men to find, buy or steal the unique piece, it sent Rhone running to the badlands to escape. Unfortunately, the badlands were named for a very good reason. The unexpected meeting with The Commissioner’s men wasn’t so good either.  
  With Stone taken, it's up to Rhone, first to survive, then to find and rescue his friend. 
  The story becomes even more twisted, when the OPR gets involved and their agents work to find evidence against The Commissioner. 
  A genre melding YA action adventure / gaslight western, with a sci-fi twist. 
  A fun read for the entire family.
