Storm Frost
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99There exists an Anglo-Saxon manuscript, where we hear of an outcast wife, a husband, his messenger, a lover and a baby. Merge these tales with what we know of the royal family buried at Sutton Hoo in East Anglia, including Raedwald and his brother, Eni, living at the end of the 6th century AD.They believe in the old gods, like Woden, and have not yet encountered Christianity. Their culture is vibrant, exciting, terrifying in its cruelty, and uninhibited in its morality. Travel from the East Anglian fenlands, over northern moors to the remote Northumbrian river where the story reaches its climax. Along the way, discover life in a royal hall or a hovel; cure wounds or inflict them; share a feast or scrape a meal; work fertility charms or protect your folk from evil. Here is a tale of love and betrayal, courage and fear. Niartha, the fictional heroine, outcast from her people, encounters hardship, abuse and loss as she seeks her exiled lover; her survival depends on her practical skills, unexpected in a king’s daughter. In their desires and social lives, Anglo-Saxons, although separated from us by fourteen hundred years, are not so very alien, after all.

Storms
Price range: $3.99 through $20.99Although the news bulletin confirmed her decision to evacuate, Elise didn’t want to hear another minute of forecasts, preparations, and predictions.

As the car ventured through the quiet stillness of the calm before the storm, the children slept, while their parents and grandparents sat in silence, looking out at the Louisiana wetlands bordering the interstate highway.
At one point, in their lonely journey, a caravan of paramedic units and ambulances passed them up, in the left lane Elise felt her flesh creep as she watched these people go by, imagining how frightened they must be, dealing not only with the pain and uncertainty of an illness, but also, their sole reliance on total strangers to fi nd a safe haven for them during the storm Each of those patients was someone’s mother or father, a grandparent, or a sibling, or, worse yet, someone’s child. “Thank you, God,” she whispered, again, and turned around to look at each member of her family, as though she had to make sure everyone was still there with her.

When they do, the circumstances will demand that they rediscover their ability to trust in each other. Their lives may depend on it.

We barely close the book on this event, when we grow increasingly alert to a rising din out there in the streets. We are startled to realize it can only be from the nearby LAND OF A THOUSAND CRIES.

Daniel was abducted and taken to Opi, a rural mountain community that had survived for centuries by sheep herding until 1943, when retreating German soldiers seized all the boys and able-bodied young men as work prisoners.

With no idea of where he was or why, and unable to speak Italian, Daniel began working in the fields and plotting his possible escape. Meanwhile, back in America, the once happy and loving Ciarletta family began to slowly disintegrate under the burden of conflict, anger and guilt caused by Daniel’s mysterious disappearance.

The Dragon Commons
Price range: $3.99 through $19.99The year is 2048. In lands beyond a wall-enclosed city known as the Tiered Nations, a war is waging between dragons and Wyrms. Ardyce, a Tree Crown Drake and leader of her people, ventures out to investigate a gaping hole in the land. She is joined by her kin and friend, Sasithorn, who soon must fight for their lives when a Wyrm suddenly attacks. Within the Tiered Nations, a mantra exists: “Live beyond satiation,” and consumerism is the only religion. Hadryn and his best friend Thaddius are soldiers, investigating an unusual death at the city’s morgue: a limb-hewn corpse, which appears to have been mauled when animals are no longer of this world. Meat products, as well as all foods, are grown in laboratories and manufactured as “cubed food.” Before Hadryn and Thaddius can further their examination of the body, two letters arrive for Hadryn. One is from a woman, Oshin Rysing, who is Hadryn’s long-time epistolary paramour, living outside the Tiered Nations in a rebel colony which resists the gluttonous ways of the city. The second letter is from his father to notify Hadryn that he will be wedded to an unknown man, as is customary for young women of marital age. Hadryn attends his engagement banquet with the intention of confronting his father, but strange occurrences of people, who seem to be infected with a terrible disease leading to self-cannibalism arise, and a creature out of nightmares emerges
