Synopsis

In Full Circle!, Vince isn't your typical hero—he's not even a fan of the word "hero." He's spent most of his life running from responsibility, avoiding answers, and hiding behind a barstool in a dingy corner of the universe. But when life finally catches up with him, it's not in some grand, dramatic way. No, it's in a quiet, offbeat fashion that only he would find bewildering.
 
This novel doesn’t just break the fourth wall—it smashes it with the kind of dry wit, existential humor, and cosmic absurdity that would make Kurt Vonnegut proud. Think Slaughterhouse-Five meets the modern world, where Vince's reaction to it is the only thing more unpredictable than the universe itself.
 
Vince’s story is a series of choices—some profound, most not—but each one shifts him from the kind of guy who’d rather throw back another drink than engage with his past to someone who might have to stop running and face whatever's next. Maybe that’s peace. Perhaps it’s chaos. Maybe it’s just the next drink.
 
With Vonnegut’s signature humor and wit, Full Circle! pulls you into a tale of existential dilemmas, absurd characters, and the struggle to find meaning in a universe that doesn’t care if you’re confused. It’s funny, dark, and has enough twists to leave even the most cynical reader laughing—and thinking.
 
Dive into a story where the past is never fully gone, the future remains a mystery, and the present is another choice. Because, in the end, that’s all we have. A series of choices, some absurd, some meaningful, and some that might bring us full circle.
 
In the style of Vonnegut, this is a book about surviving the cosmic joke, laughing at the punchline, and realizing you’re in on it after all. Just don’t expect a happy ending—this one’s far too complicated for that. Or is it?

    Step into a chilling vision of the future in Watchbird by Robert Sheckley, a provocative science fiction novella from the early 1950s. When robotic drones known as "watchbirds" are deployed to eliminate murder and safeguard society, humanity embraces a technological miracle—until the machines begin to redefine what it means to kill. As the watchbirds evolve and extend their protection to all living beings, even insects, society unravels under their rigid logic. Through razor-sharp satire and philosophical depth, Sheckley explores the unintended consequences of automation, the fragility of moral judgment, and the perils of surrendering ethical responsibility to artificial intelligence. A must-read for fans of speculative fiction, Watchbird remains a timeless warning about the limits of control in an increasingly mechanized world.

    Phoenix Code - New Beginnings M...

    Phoenix was becoming a pressure cooker nearing bursting open, as the sequestered group of savant scientists and soldiers in the glass-domed pods in Antarctica were buzzing with sexual tension. 
    Brad McCormick figured since the limbic system associated with sexual desire is linked to libido and the part of the brain responsible for higher-level functions, like planning and thinking, he had a problem he couldn’t solve without his leadership team. To put it more explicitly, the men were extremely sexually eager. 
    Unbeknownst to the threat of external forces, the new Phoenician code of conduct, their scientific discoveries of new technologies and DNA manipulations hold the key to human survival—a blueprint for a new world, where the old divisions and conflicts become nothing more than relics of the past. 
    This is a low-action, high-science-fiction fantasy story with bouts of silliness, steamy M/M romances, a wedding, and a "Quik-Fix Hall.” 
    Phoenix Code is a prequel to the New Beginnings M/M series by Kashel Char. It is a re-edit of the original published work titled Men of Phoenix, written by Stefan Pride. Stefan invited Kashel to co-author and update it with fresh thoughts, preparing it for an audiobook recording. It was re-titled Phoenix Code Copyright 2022 by Kashel Char and Stefan Pride. Warning: This story has explicit and graphic depictions unsuitable for young and sensitive listeners or anyone offended by gay sex.
