Sinossi

The Shadow of Guevara is an intense, fast-paced thriller set in revolutionary Cuba. It focuses on Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, and their fellow radicalised soldiers. Pablo, a young peasant labourer, begins the sugar harvest of 1957 as a mentally and physically abused character on the farm where he works in Bayamo, Cuba. Running away to join the Revolution’s cause, Pablo finds Castro’s men, and becomes an aide to Che Guevara. But Guevara’s full nature is unclear to Pablo. He must ask himself to what degree he is willing to follow Guevara down a path of violence to achieve the goals of supposed freedom and equality.

    DIONISIOS EFKARPIDIS’ stunning debut novel, Dog Day Sunrise, is told with “top-notch” pacing and storytelling, filled with twisted biohackers, bloodcurdling mutations, a kid with a bad hair day, and even a dash of profound and touching writing. Cosmos Leftezondakidis leads the ordinary underachiever, underdog existence, tending to his parents’ Greek deli in Freedom Basin; a small quaint town built into the depression of a meteor crater, where exotic elements lie beneath its crust, fuel for the madness that terrorizes the town. 
    “A second flicker illuminated a pair of thick, black, serrated legs that bent over the splintered executioner’s chair at an odd angle, supporting . . . something massive—its head nearly touching the ten-foot ceiling. Long armored arms hung at its sides, ending in five sickle-shaped talons. The clawed hand snapped out, and the executioner’s head exploded with a crimson pop… The Butcher was free.” 
    Engrossing, vivid, and disturbing, Cosmos’ surreal adventure unfolds as the stakes get higher and the setting expands to reveal the secrets of Freedom Basin and Basin’s Vault Prison, and the technological marvel of nearby City of Sol. With his dog Plato and accidental partners Reyansh and her celebrity-influencer brother Deva, this is a modern thriller told in the style of classic horror, studded with morphing monsters, haunted by modern moral questions and sub plots that promise to bloom (or explode) in the two volumes to follow. 
    Through it all, will Cosmos’ dreams come true?

Things only improve when Koharu breaks free from her role as a love doll and starts speaking and moving on her own, transformed into the perfect wife.

    ATHENA 
    I've always shot for the moon, but if you'd told me I'd be earning seven figures aged twenty-four, I would never have believed you. 
    And if you'd told me that I'd earn every penny of that success by selling my body and my soul, I'd have laughed in your face. 
    Still. Here I am at Seraph, an elite agency that recruits only the most well-educated, accomplished and discreet women. 
    Our area of expertise? "Full service" executive assistants to the most powerful men in the world. 
    Whatever our bosses need, we provide. Day or night, in the boardroom or the bedroom. 
    It's every bit the challenge I've longed for, and it's more fulfilling than I could ever have dreamt. My secret? Discipline. An open mind. And rock-solid boundaries. 
    None of which are a problem, until I cross paths with Gabriel Sullivan, a former Catholic priest turned billionaire CEO whose appetites are voracious as his demons are relentless. 
    In the midst of all his inner turmoil and outer pressures, I know it's my very impassiveness that he values the most. 
    Too bad he's the only man I've worked for who makes me want to burn every one of my boundaries to ash. 
    Audacity is a scorching hot billionaire, age gap, workplace romance spun off from my Alchemy series. It's the story of Athena, Anton Wolff's "full service" executive assistant in Unveil. 
    There are group activities along the way, but Athena and Gabriel get a monogamous HEA.

    Defiance has consequences. 
    For six weeks, the assassin Grayshade has walked, alone, away from the streets of Cohrelle on the banks of the Silver Coast and through the mountain pass to the basin lands of Silarein. Somewhere, in these unfamiliar lands, he must find what he seeks — answers. 
    Previously the Order of Argoth’s most skilled assassin, Grayshade remains their target. His goal: learn the true threat to the people of Cohrelle, and protect those who remain there. Used to the patterns of human nature, but not the secrets behind the yellow eyes of a panther, the whispers and lies of dreams, nor the sunless gloom of the infamous Bloodmarsh, Grayshade will need everything he has — outside and inside — to stay alive. 
    Renegade is a novel of defiant resolve and deep bonds, a story about whether we can find our way through trauma to hope.
