Mother London

Shortlisted for the Whitbread prize, MOTHER LONDON is a dazzling journey through the heart of a city that the author loved. Spanning generations of characters across a variety of boroughs from the Blitz to the mid-eighties, this is a book about the real London that tourists will never find, a London which is being erased by the spread of high-rise flats and shining skyscrapers. Following a group of released mental patients across the years and streets of London, Moorcock creates a vivid impressionistic portrait of the city, from its downtrodden pubs to its green parks. All of the lead characters hear voices – but are they the murmurings of their damaged minds, or the true voice of the city?

City of Light

The first in an all-new futuristic fantasy series from Keri Arthur—the New York Times bestselling author of the Souls of Fire novels. When the bombs that stopped the species war tore holes in the veil between this world and the next, they allowed entry to the Others—demons, wraiths, and death spirits who turned the shadows into their hunting grounds. Now, a hundred years later, humans and shifters alike live in artificially lit cities designed to keep the darkness at bay.... As a déchet—a breed of humanoid super-soldiers almost eradicated by the war—Tiger has spent her life in hiding. But when she risks her life to save a little girl on the outskirts of Central City, she discovers that the child is one of many abducted in broad daylight by a wraith-like being—an impossibility with dangerous implications for everyone on earth.

Barbed Wire Bandages

After ten years in uniform, Garrison Beckett is back in his hometown of Till Park where he was relentlessly bullied as a teen. With two weeks to spare, a single suitcase, and one tattered invitation to his high school reunion, he's ecstatic to show those who caused him the most pain just how far he's come. But that all changes the second he crashes into the fence surrounding Till Park Animal Sanctuary. Bridget Warner is a lot of things: Hermit. Artist. Animal savior... and rehabilitated bully. Her most tortured victim? Garrison Beckett. When the two former foes meet again, it's clear that Bridget isn't the cruel, vindictive girl she used to be, and Garrison is more than capable of handling himself after years of serving his country. Together, they have to decide what's more important: Forgiveness. Or a decade-long grudge that's defined most of their adult lives. This is a stand-alone contemporary romance. Due to language, violence, and erotic content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18. **

Nothing New Under the Sun

The more Cater Devereux, a professor of archeology, researches and studies the history of the human species, the more he becomes convinced that Solomon was onto something when he said: "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there anything whereof it may be said, See, this is new? It hath been already of old time, which was before us. There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after." Ecclesiastes 1:9 -11 (Circa 940 BC). Carter's research and exploration into this history take him to South America, India and the Middle East where he makes mind-boggling discoveries which challenge our entire view of human history. And before long, Carter finds himself with not only a large number of critics from across the world but also a number of ardent followers. Through the ages kings, rulers, power seekers and governments have been trying to secretly, and sometimes not so secretly, to get their hands on artifacts believed to have immense power. Examples include the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant, Bachal Isu - the staff of Moses, carried by David, and the King of Kings, Jesus Christ, the Spear of Destiny, the time machine "the glock" created by the Germans during WWII, and ancient lost cities with hidden fortunes of gold and artifacts with unimaginable powers. There is a no shortage of unscrupulous, power hungry people who will do anything, including kill, to possess these relics- if they exist. Most frightening of them all are the ancient texts that speak of earth's destruction by nuclear weapons thousands of years ago. Do those nuclear weapons still exist? If so where are they? Can Carter Devereux discover them before anyone else can? Carter is drawn into the secret world of archeology which he never knew existed where phrases such as; "above top secret," - "never existed," - "will be denied if uncovered," - and "black ops budgets," are part of the language. NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN is a full-length novel, a thought-provoking mystery about the discovery of antediluvian human civilizations and the terrifying consequences of digging up the past. It is the first book in J C Ryan's Carter Devereux Mystery Thriller series, the prequel to the stimulating, fast paced thriller, The Wolves Of Freydis.
