Frontiersmen: Hell Ride to...

Anonymous

One ship. One crew. One hell of a run.

Welcome to the edge of the galaxy-where the stars are lawless, the jobs are dirty, and survival is just another hustle.

John Donovan is a Frontiersman: smuggler, pilot, and professional debtor. He'll haul anything for the right price-cargo, cattle, fugitives, even a preacher with secrets too big to pray away. When a desperate job takes him through the forbidden space of the warlike Peko, Donovan figures it's just another high-risk run.

He couldn't be more wrong.

Between hostile aliens, scavenger pirates, and a haunted luxury cruiser adrift in the void, Donovan and his mismatched crew are in for the ride of their lives. And as the bullets start flying and the air gets thin, one thing becomes clear:

Getting to Heaven's Gate may just be a one-way ticket to hell.

FRONTIERSMEN: HELL RIDE TO HEAVEN'S GATE is the explosive start to a gripping space western series-perfect for fans of Firefly and The Mandalorian. Fast-paced, character-driven, and packed with frontier grit.

Smuggle fast. Shoot straight. Don't look back.

Wes Andrews, born in 1977, has sat on the back of a horse, carried a Colt on his hip, and slept in boots night after night. When he's not writing novels, he watches old movies, roams through nature, or plays cards with rough men. He lives with his wife and animals in a sleepy town in the south and is delighted that people are no longer forced to settle their neighborhood disputes on the street at noon.

That aside, Wes Andrews is the pseudonym of an award-winning author who has also written for the Star Trek franchise. And although none of the above is a lie, it should not be taken too seriously.

Warrior Pixies

Michael Anderle, Martha Carr

Z Thornbrook and her pixie cousins are all dressed up with somewhere to go. Major Winters is taking them to meet his bosses and the people who sign off on whether the OIP gets to stay or if they're all out of a job. 
 
 
 
They will need to be on their best behavior if they don't want to get shipped back to Oriceran. Easier said than done. 
 
 
 
Especially when the pixies realize General Lark is the same Lark whose papers they stole from the bank and is on a list of partners for Arbitum. 
 
 
 
That can't be good. Not good at all. Does Winters know? 
 
 
 
The pixies try to be cool, but it's hard for them to be on their best behavior. They're on pixie behavior–PANIC MODE ACTIVATED–until they get out of there and get back to base. 
 
 
 
Time for the pixies and their squad to form a plan and put an end to Arbitum for good. 
 
 
 
Will they be able to do it before Arbitum and a dark wizard carry out their nefarious plans?

2050 kiss me - Un primo bacio

Grazia D

Milano, anno 2050. Il caldo estremo domina ogni aspetto della vita quotidiana, e i cittadini sono obbligati a vivere dietro schermi protettivi, sorvegliati e regolati da dispositivi tecnologici. Atra e Maso, due adolescenti alla ricerca di emozioni vere, sfidano i limiti di questa società iper-controllata per ritrovare ciò che sembra perduto: la libertà di sentire, di scegliere, di amare. Un bacio proibito, il profumo di una fragola clandestina, e la ribellione ai protocolli imposti diventano gesti rivoluzionari, fragili e coraggiosi allo stesso tempo. 
2050, kiss me è un racconto distopico intenso e delicato, un invito a proteggere la nostra umanità dalle derive di un futuro fin troppo plausibile.
