From thriller and suspense master Brett Battles comes Dream Sky, the sixth book in the continuing Project Eden thriller saga. A hush has settled over the planet. The once dominant human race is in full retreat. But man is not yet defeated. Augustine dream sky. These were Matt Hamilton’s last words. Daniel Ash has no idea what they mean, but he’s sure they are key to defeating Project Eden. His only hope is that he’s able to figure out the secret in time. The survivors on Isabella Island are surrounded by death, and need to get off the island before the flu can claim them, too. But there are not enough boats at the resort to get everyone to safety. The only solution involves a risky trip to the mainland that may be even more dangerous than remaining on the island. In Mumbai, Sanjay’s friends watch as the Project Eden survival station is abandoned. Curious, they search the facility once everyone has left. They expect to find very little, and at first they are right. But only at first. Ben Bowerman’s search for his girlfriend, Martina Gable, takes him to the only place left he thinks she can be. When he gets there, he’s hurled into the unexpected, where he begins to see the truth of what is really going on, and knows if he doesn’t do something drastic, his days are numbered. And in an idyllic town covered by a blanket of snow, all is quiet. Except for the rotating squad of soldiers who watch and wait for a problem they believe becomes more and more unlikely as each day passes. The world, after all, is quickly depleting. But they are wrong. Eden Rising is best read after completing volumes 1-5 (Sick, Exit 9, Pale Horse, Ashes, and Eden Rising) Praise for the Project Eden Thrillers “Sick didn’t just hook me. It hit me with a devastating uppercut on every primal level—as a parent, a father, and a human being.”—Blake Crouch, author of Run “[A] gem of an outbreak story that unfolds like a thriller movie and never lets up, all the way to the last page.

Dray Prescot tells us in muted tones of remembered horror of the time he spent as a slave of the Shanks and Katakis in the port town of Taranjin. Taranjin is the capital of Tarankar, a country on the west coast of South Loh. Here, These folk are trying to follow Prescot, whom they know as Drajak the Sudden. Prescot has had limited success in organizing the guerilla gangs in Tarankar, and his hopes are centered on a coalition of forces from allied Hamal, from his home, Vallia, and from Tsungfaril. Tsungfaril, a country across the desert to the east, has a new queen, Queen Kirsty with her consort Rodders. The Star Lords ordered Kirsty to be made queen of Tsungfaril. Now Prescot in Taranjin, employed to clean a Shank lord's armor aboard his flagship, is beginning to sense that he faces utter failure. He tries a last throw and places incendiary devices aboard Shank ships, and then is told to clean weapons--including a great Krozair longsword. Prescot has been described as a man above middle height, with brown hair and level brown eyes, oddly brooding and dominating, with enormously broad shoulders and powerful physique. He has an unmistakable aura about him, a charisma known in Kregish as the yrium. He moves like a savage hunting animal, swift, quiet and lethal. Under the twin sun, Antares, the planet Kregen is a world of wonder and terror, of beauty and horror. Now, in the streaming mingled lights of the Suns of Scorpio, Prescot takes up the Krozair brand. He hears a commotion on the deck outside and sees Pazzian slaves about to be killed by the Shank lord using his trident. He looks along the deck hearing the shrieks of pain and fear and sees the totally unexpected. He acts at once. Views: 19
Shadow Assassins, Book Three: Angie is stranded in a strange town without a car, money or even her cell phone. Luckily, her sister sends Blayne to the rescue. Angie is expecting a ride and maybe a shoulder to cry on--and then she meets her rescuer. After seeing his gorgeous face and muscular body, Angie can't decide what sort of ride she wants him to give her. Before she can make up her mind, all hell breaks loose. Suddenly Blayne is battling another man with flashes of light and both men are teleporting, as if space alone can't contain them. When a dangerous enemy plants a tracker on Angie, the only choice Blayne has is to take her off-world. If they return to the Mystic Militia, it will reveal the location of their ship to the enemy. She's been targeted by the Shadow Assassins because of her latent abilities. He must release her gifts and teach her how to control them before they return to Earth. The only problem is, he can't seem to think of her as an apprentice. Their attraction is mutual, instantaneous and intense. He has vowed to keep her safe, yet his good intentions evaporate the moment his lips meet hers. Note to Readers: This book contains detailed descriptions of sizzling passion only suitable for mature readers. From Cyndi: This story picks up where Mystic Militia left off and it delves more deeply into the Shadow Assassin conflict. It's not necessary to read the books in order, but it's more fun if you do. These books have a more contemporary feel than the Beyond Ontariese series. They are definitely steamy romances, and even though they're set in Las Vegas, you'll find many sci-fi and fantasy themes.
