Book Description
Be careful when you get what you ask for… Especially when others believe they deserve the prize more than you. And some will do everything necessary to get what they want, even murder. Duncan’s confidence has failed to account for a paranoid High Priest, a jealous King unhappy with the way the people have taken to this stranger, and a certain ambitious Priest who wants nothing better than to get rid of the High Priest and Duncan at the same time. Unfortunately, Vix, Gambria’s High Priest, has a more immediate problem. He must eliminate Duncan before the contest reveals Vix is a fraud. It’s time to call in assassins and eliminate this obnoxious threat. And where is Alexis when you need her? Unhappy with a woman as Berserker, especially one who is untested in battle and still learning the language, King Diad tells his Battle Commander to place her on a weak flank against the Rugian army. Hopefully, they can take care of the problem and Gambria can find a new Berserker. Then there’s Bradwr, King Diad’s brother, who believes Diad is no longer worthy of being king and has determined that the title is now within his reach. This is a revamping of a former series titled Wolf 359. The Misfit series is geared to a wider audience and age groups.

Book Description
A science-fantasy adventure series! With their spaceship destroyed, the remaining two survivors of a failed colonization mission jettison down to a planet with the hope they can survive. Duncan, a bookish linguist, and Alexis, a beautiful gladiator in the prime of her career, suddenly find themselves drawn into the struggles between two warring kingdoms. Their fortunes improve when Alexis’ combat skills are discovered, and she is challenged by the nation’s berserker who underestimates his opponent and pays dearly for it. Yet no sooner is she awarded his position, title, and wealth when she is called upon to lead the nation’s warriors in the first full scale battle she has ever experienced, against an enemy who take no prisoners. With the very real possibility that Alexis might not survive the battle, Duncan is left alone to fend for himself. Calling himself a Wizard of the Universe, he is brought before the Council of Prelates to explain his obvious heresy. Deftly answering their questions, he throws caution to the wind and challenges the nation’s High Priest to a contest of divine favor. The one who calls down thunder and lightning from the sky is the chosen one of God and becomes the nation’s High Priest. The loser dies. This is a revamping of a former series titled Wolf 359. The Misfit series is geared to a wider audience and age groups.

Unfortunately, Jarl Thorsten believes he has a claim to the farm and decides to exercise that claim by sending battle-hardened men to challenge Erik to individual combat. Much to Thorsten’s dismay, Erik not only defeats all challengers, he manages to gain another farm deep in Thorsten’s jarldom. Thorsten’s solution? Kidnap Tone.

But they can't do it alone and must seek out the help of dwarves and elves - with unintended consequences.

Book Description
For more than fifty years, the Terran Republic and the Terran League have been killing one another. The death toll has climbed ever higher, year after year, with no end in sight. But the members of the Five Hundred, the social elite of the Republic’s Heart Worlds, don’t care. Rear Admiral Terrence Murphy is a Heart Worlder. His family is part of the Five Hundred. His wife is the daughter of one of the Five Hundred’s wealthiest, most powerful industrialists. His sons and his daughter can easily avoid military service, and political power is his for the taking. There is no end to how high he can rise in the Republic’s power structure. All he has to do is successfully complete a risk-free military “governorship” in the backwater Fringe System of New Dublin without rocking the boat. But the people sending him to New Dublin have miscalculated, because Terrence Murphy is a man who believes in honor. Who believes in duty—in common decency and responsibility. Who believes there are dark and dangerous secrets behind the façade of what “everyone knows.” Terrence Murphy intends to meet those responsibilities, to unearth those secrets, and he doesn’t much care what the Five Hundred want. He intends to put a stop to the killing. Terrence Murphy is coming for whoever has orchestrated fifty-six years of bloodshed and slaughter, and Hell itself is coming with him. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). About The Gordian Protocol: “Tom Clancy-esque exposition of technical details . . . absurd humor and bloody action. Echoes of Robert Heinlein . . . lots of exploding temporal spaceships and bodies . . . action-packed . . .” —Booklist “[A] fun and thrilling standalone from Weber and Holo. . . . Time travel enthusiasts will enjoy the moral dilemmas, nonstop action, and crisp writing.”—Publishers Weekly

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
