Book Description
Over the course of five books, an ordinary detective gets swept up in a new renaissance age originating in Berkeley, Ca, finding himself no less transformed than the colorful characters he was meant to police. The five book series is collected here under one cover for the first time. The story, set in a parallel timeline, is for lovers of genre-busting mysteries and for readers who can embrace a mix of science-based thriller, sci-fi, urban and paranormal fantasy, mixed in with the sleuthing. Robin, the story's hero, undergoes a sex change early in the series, classifying this also as LGBTQ+ fiction. Fans of Richard Bard’s Brainrush series should also enjoy the contest going on between the “naturals” who wish to become meta-human with ancient practices and the ones all too willing to embrace new technologies to the same ends. Because the story arc is continuous from book 1, readers will want to read the books in order. It is only when Robin starts coming into all her powers, in the second half of the series' story arc, that supernatural powers begin to emerge.

Book Description
The original novel tying into the critically acclaimed and much-missed Firefly series from creator Joss Whedon. The Battle of Serenity Valley was the turning point that led the Independents to their defeat at the hands of the Alliance. Yet the Browncoats had held the valley for weeks against all odds, before being ordered to lay down their arms. Command stated they refused to send in airpower because the ground war was "too hot." But the soldiers who were there insist that was not true... While picking up a new cargo on Persephone, Captain Malcolm Reynolds is kidnapped by a bunch of embittered veteran Browncoats who suspect him of sabotaging the Independents during the war. As the rest of the crew struggle to locate him, Mal is placed on trial for his life, fighting compelling evidence that someone did indeed betray them to the Alliance all those years ago. As old comrades and old rivals crawl out of the woodwork, Mal must prove his innocence, but his captors are desperate and destitute, and will settle for nothing less than the culprit's blood.

Book Description
Royal protocol dictated that the King exit the car last, but as the important man was about to emerge, a hail of gunfire erupted, spraying the royal Hummer. "The Talvanian King watched in shock as, one by one, his cars occupants fell limp to the ground." Alone, in a foreign city, he seeks temporary refuge in the Good Burger diner. Here he meets Lom, a crazy old Korean War vet, who misses his old life of danger and intrigue and who embraces the idea of hunting those who are hunting the King. Lom does so by, first, kicking ass and taking names, and second, by teaching the baby-faced King the ways of the street, battlefield style. His written message is clear: "I HEARD YOU WERE LOOKING FOR ME. NOW IM LOOKING FOR YOU " This action packed hunt for the assassins begins with the United Nations and takes us from Charlies New York City pawn shop, deep into secret underground passageways, into hidden train stations and desolate warehouses, and ultimately to carefully orchestrated deals with jewel thieves and gun runners. Things move along well until the heart-wrenching kidnapping. With the clock ticking against him, Lom must think quickly in order to save the life of the one he loves. Will the old man make it in time? Will the King live? Only time and his survival skills . . . will tell.

Some say Cole Pitman.'' ''People talk too much,'' Matt said. ''It’s up to the law to handle it.'' The clerk gave Matt a sour grin. ''Law? Who’s the law in Gaptown?'' Matt stepped back, his eyes ice-cols. ''I am,'' he said. ''I am now.''
