    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?

    What if there was a war raging for one million years, but it was kept secret? It's a question Sargis never considered, born as an upper middle class man living in Prime City during a so-called "Millenia of Peace." 
     
     
     
    As far as he, or anyone else knows, humanity has no army, no weapons, and no wars. 
     
     
     
    The people of Earth have been expanding into the stars for as long as anyone remembers, free of conflict while the Techno King and his Royal Cabal enrich themselves on the backs of their labor. All was as it always has been. 
     
     
     
    Then, Sargis dies. 
     
     
     
    Unbeknownst to him, an app he used every single day of his life hijacks his consciousness and uploads it into a synthetic engine of war known as a sleeve. Along with countless others, he has been conscripted into the Undying Legion, charged with fighting a secret, unending war in the name of humanity.

    Suspended in mid-air high above the planet, the stratoship Perseus should still be moving—but it isn’t. Meteorologist Lawton and his crew find themselves trapped in a silent, motionless bubble of sky, where the clouds have frozen beneath them and the air outside has become a strange, alien theatre. Inside the ship, tensions mount, minds unravel, and something unseen creeps across the outer hull in creeping tendrils of life. 
    In this golden-age thriller from Frank Belknap Long, the fight isn’t just for survival against a terrifying alien vegetation; it’s a battle of human instincts, fragile alliances and the terror of staring into the unknown. As hours stretch into endless moments, Lawton must face what it means to live when the world won’t move—and what it means to stay sane when reality itself begins to shift. 
    With a haunting narration by Phil Thompson, this edition immerses you in a high-altitude nightmare where the sky becomes a trap, and the only escape may lie deep inside the human heart.
