Book Description
We have outlawed slavery and eliminated serfdom (mostly) here on Earth. It is bad enough big corporations own most everything. But what do other species in the Galaxy think of Humans. Some think we are clever little monkeys good for pets, some think we can work, some just want strong slaves, and some think we are delicious. Our second-class status out there is maintained by the fact we have no home world. Lost a long time ago. No one told the people of Earth. Imagine our surprise when we find a way outward. But first we have to get there.Young people with brilliant ideas, a boneyard full of aerospace junk and a little clandestine backing of military men can accomplish great things even spaceships. Their lives have already known hardship and one even imprisoned as a sex slave. They fought hard to breakthrough and build a better world. Nation states that enslave its populous such as China, human traffickers and ancient evil can be defeated with attitude, determination and revolutionary technology. When they stubble on a gateway back into the Galaxy, imagination and clandestine skullduggery will be the weapons of choice.

Book Description
A mind-bending and captivating mystery about one teen’s surreal experiences after surviving a major trauma. Caleb Tosh has suffered one personal trauma too many, but this last one—the sudden departure of his mom—has pushed him down a dark and disorienting path. His favorite video-game, Boneyard, becomes his go-to coping mechanism, and Tosh gladly gets lost in the maps of the game rather than move through the landscape of his own grief. As Tosh falls farther and farther down the rabbit hole of abandonment and loneliness, he doesn’t see there are others fighting both virtual and real-life battles alongside him. What will it take for Caleb Tosh to leave the safety of the Boneyard, to rejoin reality, and deal with the wreckage of his actual life?

Book Description
Trample on the dust of the Dead lightly...This sentiment, held by old-time Hoodoos and traditional Rootworkers, is a subtle reminder of the importance of observing certain behaviors while in a graveyard. Knock before entering. Be careful where you walk. Don't step on graves or sit on tombstones. Always ask before taking anything-even stones, flowers, sticks and leaves. Never leave trash, always greet the gatekeeper and always come prepared with a pocket full of pennies, silver dimes and a bottle of rum or whiskey. The important thing to remember is that you never just walk in and take something. You must always treat the spirits with respect; both the spirits of the deceased, as well as the guardians of the cemeteries and the psychopomps. Workin' in da Boneyard is a primer for conjurers seeking a tangible connection to their past, their ancestors and the Spirit World by working with graveyards and graveyard dirt. From practical issues of safety, choosing a cemetery, locating ancestral graves, reading gravestone signs and symbols, avoiding haints and hauntings, to gathering graveyard dirt and making goofer dust, Workin' in da Boneyard has the information needed for working effective graveyard conjure, as well as words of caution for the ill-prepared.
