Book Description
"In a world without hope, in a land of darkness and despair, where chaos has replaced order, one boy leads a ragtag band of rebels against omnipotent forces." The forces of Chaos have defeated those of Order and recreated reality. The result is a dystopian multiverse ruled by the Dark Gods and policed by vampires who serve as their high priests. Into this Alterverse comes a heavensent African, gender-switching, interdimensional traveler who now finds himself permanently stuck in female form and tasked with the unenviable job of restoring reality. He/She must locate 17-year-old Alaric, son of the imprisoned witch Samantha Twitch and the banished demon Lucifer, and help him form a rebellion. But in this altered reality familiar faces are not who they may seem and some who had died now still live. Pandora and Cody's teenaged children Quinn and Ursula join Alaric's nascent resistance alongside the demon Asmodeus, Grand Duke of Hell Eligos, Nitrate (an emotive from the Dreamscape), Kita the kitsune, and a Kunoichi (Japanese female assassin) against overwhelming odds, as they seek not merely to change the world but the entire multiverse, and overthrow the gods themselves.

Pages : 428
Book Description
Exiled on Earth, naive angel Gabriel and amoral demon Lucifer — in the human guise of “Gabe Horn” and “Lou Cypher” — form an unlikely partnership as private investigators in Las Vegas. Their adventures take them across the seven heavenly realms, into the nine levels of Hell, through the dream realm of the Dreamscape, and even through time to Camelot. Along the way, the pair encounter a wickedly funny assortment of angels, demons, witches, warlocks, vampires, and other supernatural creatures. Meet some of the most imaginative characters in contemporary fantasy, including an intriguing array of protagonists (Miss Twitch, a Salem witch; Emma, a British schoolgirl and witch-in-training, and Morgan Summers, a Dreamwalker) and antagonists (sadistic witch-hunter Nathaniel Thornhill, a golem, a Paiute Shaman, the corporate vampires of Nosferatu, Inc., trampires, gangsters, and nefarious demons). Some of the vampires include Sharon — she's Jewish, crosses don't bother her; Pandora — trouble follows her like a shadow; Claude — he's too claustrophobic to use a coffin; and Artemus — a 10-year-old boy who's been a vampire for nearly 457 years. But the real stars are the ultimate odd couple, Gabriel and Lucifer, whose comedic banter and improbable escapades will amuse and thrill readers and leave them asking for more.

A pair of FBI agents set up a bogus movie production as part of an unlikely sting operation to snare a mob kingpin. They buy the worst script in Hollywood and hire a failed movie producer whose career is on the skids; a third-rate aging actress whose claim to fame is having performed Shakespeare… on a cruise ship; an amphetamine-enhanced screenwriter; a hooker; a Yiddish-speaking accountant; a black, flaming gay actor; and a Native American actor who insists on dressing like an Old West dime store Indian. However, throughout the course of the film, the mobsters and one of the FBI agents become so enamored by the glitter and glamour of Hollywood that they actually end up working together to try to make the movie a success. Our hero is a hitman in search of the redemption he doesn't believe he deserves. He realizes the fake film was never meant to be produced and develops a conscience believing it's wrong to allow the innocent actors and film crew to spend months of their lives working on a movie no one will ever see, despite the delusions of everyone else involved. Knowing their hopes and dreams will be dashed, our hero sets about trying to do the right thing.

Book Description
Speculative Fiction From the American Midwest to the Middle East, to London, and even to the Alpha Concordance — a section of the galaxy at the edge of man’s celestial peripheral vision — eight explorers of differing genders, cultures, and religions seek to uncover the mysteries of the universe. What is the true nature of the soul? What is the long-lost secret of the origin of mankind? Does God exist? And if so, where is he now? Is there life in the cosmos? How does one even define life? Is a man without a soul alive? Is an android that walks and talks like a man? Can a sentient artificial intelligence computer be alive? And what defines humanity? Does man’s inhumanity toward his fellow man stem from evil, madness, or something more? With the long-term survival of humanity at stake, the intrepid explorers find themselves transported across the universe to somewhere they are not supposed to be, having learned reality is not what it seems and the laws of physics were never really laws at all, merely suggestions. Will their disparate differences — in gender, cultures, philosophies, and religious beliefs — aid these explorers in piecing together the mysteries or pull them further from the truth? Or are they, along with their developing interpersonal relationships, merely a commentary on the human condition? A novella in three acts, blending philosophy, religion, and quantum mechanics.
