Book Description
When a Salem psychic tells Mattie Fisher that she’s a reincarnated god, she doesn't buy it for a second. But then she’s told that her haunting dreams are memories of past lives, and if she undergoes a ceremony, she will finally understand the truth about herself. She’ll finally find peace. What she doesn’t realize is that there's more at stake than an escape from endless nights of Netflix binge-watching. A god of war is hunting her—forcing her to race from the deity-filled streets of New York to sacred Hindu temples to the lawless Amazon jungle. The only one by her side is Jared Stone, a nerdy but cute guy who is seeking to find redemption from his own shattered life. If Mattie is to survive and restore balance to the world, she must uncover and accept the powers buried within her. Yet to do so, she’ll have to confront an ancient secret, which could either bring her ultimate wisdom or complete madness. *Gaia Hunted is the first full-length novel in a five book urban fantasy series with elements of reincarnation. This action-filled thriller gives you a complex heroine, a slow-burn romance, and a pancultural weaving of Greek, Roman, Indian, and Chinese mythologies that will keep you reading past your bedtime. Please Note: This book contains explicit content and darker elements, including mature language, violence, and adult themes.

(ERC) genetically engineers and reintroduces the recently extinct moas, woolly mammoths, and passenger pigeons species to the Earth’s environment.

In reaction, the members of the ERC are banished to a huge space habitat located equal distance from the Earth and Moon. A later attempt at further punishment leads the space exiles to rebel. The novel follows two childhood friends, Peter Tanaka and Ivar Hardford, as they try to navigate the turmoil in the GU. Peter joins the ERC and becomes a leader of the space exiles. Ivar establishes himself as the head of a mercenary band used as off-the-books government enforcers. Peter and Ivar end as mortal enemies on opposite sides of the space rebellion.

Book Description
In the sixth novel in the New York Times bestselling Iron Druid Chronicles, two-thousand-year-old Druid Atticus O’Sullivan finds himself the target of two goddesses of the hunt and a trickster god determined to unleash the apocalypse. “[Kevin] Hearne is a terrific storyteller with a great snarky wit. . . . Neil Gaiman’s American Gods meets Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden.”—SFFWorld For someone who’s been alive for two thousand years, Atticus O’Sullivan is a pretty fast runner. Good thing, because he’s being chased by not one but two goddesses of the hunt—Artemis and Diana—for messing with one of their own. Dodging their slings and arrows, Atticus, Granuaile, and his wolfhound, Oberon, are making a mad dash across modern-day Europe to seek help from a friend of the Tuatha Dé Danann. His usual magical option of shifting planes is blocked, so instead of playing hide-and-seek, the game plan is . . . run like hell. Crashing the pantheon marathon is the Norse god Loki. Killing Atticus is the only loose end he needs to tie up before unleashing Ragnarok—AKA the Apocalypse. Atticus and Granuaile have to outfox the Olympians and contain the god of mischief if they want to go on living—and still have a world to live in.
