Book Description
In 1936 and at just 17years old, Yusuf Abbas murders two desert travellers for their camels and worldly goods. In 1950 and now calling himself Sheikh Yusuf Abbas, he murders a British Ambassador and the members of a British oil exploration company, shortly afterwards, when a neighbouring Sheikh and his family are poisoned, he merges their lands to create the Sabba Oil empire. On the other side of the world, Richard Neilson, a sickly 14-year-old is devastated when his beloved father (whilst working in Egypt) is decapitated by Arab fanatics. He vows to avenge his death. Two years later, and having thrown himself into a gruelling fitness regime, he enlists in the army and eventually wins selection into the SAS. Najeeb Abbas (Yusuf’s son) is a malevolent, unremorseful psychopath who, upon leaving Cambridge University with a degree in nuclear physics, persuades his father to fund a desert research facility to tackle global warming. But beneath the façade, his intentions are much darker and the consequences of his actions prove fatal for his remorseful father and potentially devastating for the Gulf of Mexica and Canadian Cantrell’s oilfields. Fate throws these two polar opposite lives together, and once again Richard’s family is threatened by Abbas’ deep-rooted intentions to destroy. Will he succeed? Or will Richard finally get the revenge he’s spent most of his life planning? Discover for yourself in this dark, gritty, and electrifying world of Al-Qaeda, terrorist conspiracies, SAS heroes, M16 agents, suicide bombings, assassination plans and desert ops – where revenge stops at nothing.

Book Description
A Prayer in Prose God, you have made me something singular. I look about and suffer constantly at the magnitude of my being. You alone are God, but you have made me your self, or else you have made me as some sort of malicious joke. Where are you God, if you are not my spirit? Where can I go to for Your guidance? It is in your word, and it is the faith in your will, but how can I comprehend if not by your omniscience? Who can I rely on to have the answers? I have searched the hearts and the minds of the sagacious, and found them wanting. I have looked to the grace of Your presence, and wondered after the reason. Ye have made me thus, and mine discontent hath become a burden. It is not mine hope to be evil, nor to be vain, but to serve Thee in righteousness. Should I waste mine talent, which is Your confidence? Should I leave off the pursuit of glory while mine faith is so abundant; even absolute; perfect; complete? It is not doubt that inspires this prayer my Lord, but confusion. All day long the nay sayers vex me, and are every time thwarted. Yea, and their faith is strengthened. Yet, why do Ye only challenge the individuals, when Thine power is most suited for the pinnacle? Thine voice is heard over the kingdoms, but Ye have hidden Thine face. O God, Ye art worthy of the pleasures and highness. Ye art worthy of the love of Thine subjects. Ye have made Thine self to be pleased, and Ye art worthy of Thine will. I have seen the vision of Thine ambitions, and I know the substance of Thine heart. Ye art humble God. Ye art loving, and merciful. Ye art wise beyond all things. It is right for Thee to be empowered, as Ye art just, and kind. O ye art worthy of love my Lord, and of the beauty that Ye have created. By Thine omniscience, take back the world from the wicked, and all of Thine preferences. The people suffer while Ye sequester. Tis not Thee who is to blame for their wrong doing, but Thine responsibility to protect them from their own folly. While ye let them free, they have no discipline. Mankind is not able to keep that which is sacred. God, it is to Thee to be God, to be Father, to be Almighty. Thine spirit is right, and Thine voice is capable, therefore be bold, as Thine wisdom is perfect. Ye know the hearts of Thine flock, Ye know their ways, and wants. Feed them from Thine stores, the fare of their dreams, that they be sure of Thine loving devotion. God, Ye art worthy. Make Thine will known, for it is good. Entice them by Thine infinite wisdom, with perfect grace and beauty. Be Thou God, as Ye art very highly anticipated.

Xellous ""Zell"" Rozen is a paranormal anthropologist. He spends his nights studying the strange and unusual things that go bump in the night. With his new assistant, Calanyx at the ready, Zell finds himself escaping hellhounds, destroying life-stealing thought forms, and working with a temperamental Djinni whose quest is to find others of his tribe. All the while dealing with what has become a love quadrangle. But it's all in a day's work for Zell. Not literally, of course. This was over a course of a few days. Ah'Mahn and his clan of Djinn fled their realm and entered into the world of humans to escape persecution and start a new life. But when slavers captured the clan and bound each one to an item so that they would be forced to serve their masters, the tribe was again in danger, even more so than before. After centuries of imprisonment, Ah'Mahn has vowed to recover his brethren that have been scattered across the globe and break the bonds placed upon them. Or at least, he'll destroy himself trying.

Once upon a time, Lucan Aventech thought he was human. Then the day of his changing arrived. As his skin ignited and he shifted to Dragon form for the first time, he was in a horrific accident—or so it appeared. He survived, but everyone, including his beloved Meda, believed him dead. Now that he’s finally come to terms with being a Dragon shifter and he’s no longer a danger to others, he’s ready to reclaim his life and reclaim Meda. Reigniting the love between them should be easy, right?
