  "She was the mistress of a kingdom, yet a prisoner of her own soul."
  
  Dick Forrest is a man of absolute efficiency, a millionaire rancher who has turned his sprawling California estate into a marvel of scientific agriculture. Beside him is his wife, Paula Forrest—the "Little Lady"—a woman of immense talent, beauty, and spirited independence. Their life is an ordered paradise until the arrival of Dick's old friend, Evan Graham. As Graham and Paula fall into an irresistible, soul-stirring attraction, the "Big House" becomes the stage for a devastating emotional conflict. London crafts a story that asks: can a life built on logic and mastery ever truly satisfy the wild, unpredictable demands of love?
  
  A Masterclass in Character: Moving away from the "primitive man," London provides a nuanced look at the modern elite. Paula Forrest is one of London's most complex female protagonists—a "boy-woman" who excels at riding and music but finds herself torn between the stable, brotherly devotion of her husband and the romantic fire of a new suitor.
  
  The Beauty of the Land: Set in the lush landscapes of California's Sonoma County, the novel is a love letter to the earth. London's vivid descriptions of breeding prize livestock and taming the wilderness serve as a backdrop to the characters' internal struggles, suggesting that even the most "civilized" surroundings cannot suppress the primal instincts of the heart.

  Something is rotten in the state of cybernetics. 
  Elsinore Robotics is on the cusp of a breakthrough—the company is poised to create the first humanoid androids powered by true artificial intelligence. Their only rival, Norwegian Technologies, lost a publicly streamed contest between their flagship model, Fortinbras, and Elsinore’s HAM(let) v.1.  
  But when the first Hamlet model is found irreparably deactivated, the apparent victim of wild malware, the field of consumer cybernetics is thrown wide open. However, Hamlet v.1’s memories were not entirely lost in the accident.  
  Hamlet v.2 swears to avenge his progenitor, but is plagued by the aftereffects of integrating Old Hamlet’s backup into his own neural matrix. Beset by doubts about whether his feelings are truly his own, he worries his love for his boyfriend, Horatio, is an illusion, all the while driven by a consuming need for revenge. While he has a method, there is a madness in it, and Hamlet’s actions will leave no corner of Elsinore unscathed. 
  A beat-by-beat retelling of the Shakespeare classic, *Hamlet, Prince of Robots* grapples with conscience, ambition, and pain, and what it means to be, or not to be, human.

  The Druid Twilight saga, which began with Loom of Destiny, continues in the fifth book, Legend. 
  The Romans have ceased their war with the Druids, at least temporarily. The division between the Orders is beginning to heal, at last. With relative calm returning to the new Highland Skyhold, Caedwyn, Brianna, and Muirenn leave the Order in Catarina’s hands. The three now find themselves on the island of Eire where they encounter the Draoi and the Semnotheoi of the island. All seems well, yet an ancient evil is stirring, and before long, makes itself known. A rage festering for thousands of generations now threatens not only Eireland, but Britain and Gaul, as well. 
  The Druid Twilight series takes place during an age of transition in which ancient powers conflict with the emergence of a new way, a system of beliefs that may either engulf the archaic ways or force their unexpected evolution. 
  Nature, the elements, and time itself are at play in this intense and engaging shamanic narrative. Druid Twilight is a tale of the clash of enormous powers, betrayal, and rebirth.
