Rachel has just survived something horrific, something that left her with terrible injuries that will most likely kill her soon. She stood up against the darkest evil, and she averted a tragedy. Now, as death threatens its slow embrace, Rachel has been taken by her remaining disciples to the church, where she will either recover or die. At least, that's what she hopes will happen. For Rachel, the danger is still very real. Rachel is certain that she banished the evil during her final battle, but worries that other dark forces might yet be out for revenge. Hideously injured and on the verge of death, she's preparing to face the truth. And then, against her strictest orders, her helpers make one final mistake. They bring a child to the church. Take Me to Church is a horror novel about a woman who thought she'd defeated evil, but who now feels a dark force closing in, and about a child who ends up drawn into the heart of battle.** Views: 28

ReviewThe Biomechs in this series rock. A cross between a man and a troll but outfitted with armor, the strength and reactions to be the ultimate bad guys. An accessible series - a good read :) - E Bridges I had recently read the first book in the Star Crusades series (which was excellent) and I decided to read the sequel, Tears of Kerberos. I loved the action sequences. I would recommend this novel to anyone that likes sci-fi, action adventure novels. I'm looking forward to reading the next book by this author._- Lee Gimenez_ There are more characters and the ending is a great setup for what I am sure will be an exciting third book. The idea of the CES armor, biomechs and the relatvely crude weapons makes for a cross between warhammer and middle ages! Plot, charcters and writing are spot on, well worth a read and light on the wallet too! - Stitch JonesProduct DescriptionTears of Kerberos is the second book in the epic five part science fiction series that chronicles humanity's first interstellar confederation, torn apart by religious strife and extremism. In this latest book of the Star Crusades series, the religious insurgency continues to spread through the weakened colonies of the Confederacy.

The massive city is besieged by the terrifying biomech shock troopers, its fall is imminent. As the battles rage across the continent enemy agents continue to foment revolt throughout the remaining colonies in their struggle to bring the empire crashing down. An intelligence team on Kerberos discovers critical information on the enemy leadership and Admiral Jarvis sends a civilian ship with a crew of trusted commandos on a mission to hunt down the enemy and halt the revolt. The fate of the Centauri Confederacy lies in the hands of just a few brave men and women. Tears of Kerberos is a classic work of realistic military science fiction set against the background of the first interstellar human empire. Views: 28
UnknownEDITORIAL REVIEW:
F. Paul Wilson's engaging, self-employed, off-the-books fixer, Repairman Jack, returns for another intense, action-packed adventure just a little over the border into the weird, in *The Haunted Air*. First introduced years ago in the bestseller *The Tomb*, Jack has been the hero of a series of exciting novels set in and around New York City, including *Legacies*, *Conspiracies*,* All the Rage*, and *Hosts*. "Repairman Jack is a wonderful character, ultracompetent but still vulnerable. Wilson strolls into X-Files territory and makes it his own, keeping the action brisk and the level of suspense steadily rising," said the *San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle.*Repairman Jack doesn't believe a house can be haunted. But he's about to change that tune . . .It started off as a lark, a late-night jaunt from a boring party to the home of a psychic medium, with Jack dragged along as a reluctant participant. But as soon as Jack and Gia step across the threshold, the house and the earth itself shake to the accompaniment of a tortured scream.Menelaus Manor sits atop a major geologic fault known as Cameron's Line. But that's not it's only problem. The house has a horrific history. Its original owner died of cancer; his son blew his brains out in the basement; the couple that bought it next were found dead in their bed with their throats slashed; shortly thereafter a child was horribly mutilated in an upstairs bedroom. The current owners, Lyle and Charlie Kenton, clever practitioners of spiritualist hocus-pocus, use high-tech tricks to dupe their marks. Perhaps they're too good: they've lured too many clients from other mediums and are now under attack. Unable to go to the police for fear of exposing their own scams, they hire Repairman Jack to fix their problem. Jack takes the job, figuring he'll straighten out the situation by engaging in one of his favorite pastimes: scamming a scammer. But soon he learns that this fix-it involves more than professional jealousy in the spook trade. The earthquake marked the awakening of something in Menelaus Manor, something that used to be someone, an entity full of rage and brought back for a specific purpose. But this entity has an agenda all its own . . . Before he's finished Jack will travel from the seamy world of psychic scams to the inner circle of a well-connected murder cult, and finally into the dark heart of madness where he must strike a deal with a rage-filed entity returned from the dead.
