The Many Shades of Midnight (Tales of Isyr Book 1) by C M Debell (49 Reviews)    Price verified one minute ago

A plague of monsters. A deadly conspiracy. A truth that will shatter the world. Isyr. Stronger, brighter, more beautiful than other metals. Once the most desirable thing in Ellasia, now it is priceless, the pure Isyrium needed to produce it mined to exhaustion. What's left is controlled by the powerful mining syndicates, and such is the demand for their Isyrium that even kings do their bidding. Yet just as the beauty of Isyr hides a deadly secret, so too do the syndicates. A terrifying enemy is spreading a plague across the land, a sickness that kills or transforms everything it touches. Unable to contain the outbreaks, the King of Lankara begs the aid of his disgraced former military commander, Alyas-Raine Sera, a man who has spent years fighting syndicate expansion and whose resentment over his exile makes him an unpredictable, dangerous ally in the power struggle between the rulers of Ellasia and the mining companies. Attached to the envoy to recall Alyas, the apprentice surgeon Brivar finds his skills and loyalty tested as his service to his new patron uncovers secrets about Isyr and the plague that link it to the mining of Isyrium - and threaten the life of the man it is his duty to safeguard. In their own separate ways, Alyas and Brivar must take on the might of the syndicates and confront the greed, murder, betrayal and impossible choices of a crisis that has been decades in the making - and the price of their failure could be everyone and everything. The Many Shades of Midnight is a gritty political fantasy about friendship, sacrifice, and the fight for survival in a world where greed drives everything and no one can be trusted. If you enjoy complex characters, intricate world-building, and high-stakes intrigue, you'll love this standalone grimdark fantasy.

Link by Link: Overture to A Christmas Carol by S.R. Buckel Price verified 34 minutes ago

Before he terrorized London's rich and poor alike with his stingy bahs and abusive humbugs, before his astonishing transformation, Scrooge was Ebenezer. What and who curdled the heart of this brilliant, haunted boy? They're all here, everyone you know and love, but lurking behind every shadow and familiar face is a malevolent Enemy, who is ever striving against those Christmas Spirits, working to prevent the life of the child yet to come. This Enemy knows that Ebenezer is key -- that he will grow to either save, or -- if It can turn Ebenezer into the foulest skinflint to ever haunt London's streets -- condemn the child to an ill fate. ('I see a vacant seat in the chimney corner, and a crutch without an owner. If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, the child will die.') The Enemy strikes early. On the heels of losing his mother, Ebenezer's hard-and-sharp-as-flint father sends him away to Alfriston School for Boys. There he descends into grief, becoming self-contained and employing his fathers' caustic dismissal, BAH! -- all part of his training. Link by link, he begins forging a ponderous chain of his own freewill. From pits of despair to heights of glee; from Fezziwig's Christmas dances and the positive, womanly influences of Fani and Belle to heartache, Ebenezer girds himself with this strong coil. When he meets poverty-hating business phenom Jacob Marley, it grows full and heavy as sin. Following that legendary transformative Christmas Eve, he becomes as good a man and benefactor as Tiny Tim Cratchit could ever ask for -- one whose destiny extends far beyond himself and the narrow limits of his counting house. Witness the inspiring denouement, 180 years in the making!

Teddy Roosevelt's Goblin: A Bigfoot Story by Joe IDAHO (Kopiisto Publishing LLC) (1 Review)    Price verified 14 minutes ago

Previously published as "Teddy Roosevelt's Goblin" by Samuel Smith. TEDDY ROOSEVELT and his hunting companions battle a creature unlike anything they've encountered. The year is 1888. Teddy Roosevelt is twenty-nine, vigorous, and an avid hunter. Donning buckskins and carrying a repeating rifle, he's tracked and killed nearly every big game species in the continental United States. Now, he's after caribou. They say the last herd roams the high meadows of the Idaho Territory's Selkurk Mountains. Determined to fulfill his lifelong dream, Roosevelt organizes a hunting party and travels deep into the unforgiving wilderness. The game is plentiful, and the caribou are close. It's the perfect hunt until strange things start happening. A series of loud knocking sounds echo through the night. In the morning, a gravely injured mule stumbles into camp, followed by three distraught miners. The terrified miners tell of a giant beast capable of ripping men and mules to shreds. It's killed four of their friends and six mules. And it's still out there hunting them. Old Bauman, the grizzled, weather-beaten, former mountain man now serving as camp cook, has seen this before. Years ago, one of these beasts killed his trapping partner and scared Old Bauman from the mountains. He calls it a Goblin. Intrigued by the old man's story, Roosevelt has to investigate for himself. He will not be kept from the caribou by superstition or fear. Roosevelt is a civilized man, a practical and modern sporting man. There is nothing in the forest he cannot kill with his guns. But things aren't what they seem. This isn't your typical Bigfoot story. In a desperate final confrontation, Teddy Roosevelt's goblin will be revealed. If you're a fan of suspenseful stories that blend history and adventure with folklore and myth, then you won't want to miss this riveting novel.

How can a young wizard find his way in life without guidance? Joramm's troubles did not end after Kreltahk's defeat at Riyahm.

Goodreads Reviewer, Transgender Bookworm Die-hard traditional Texas is the backdrop where success and nonconformity cannot coexist for Bryan Hicks, an African-American divorced father of two kids, Lindsey, the athletic golden child, and Lance, the unorthodox queer thespian.

Cakewalk is contemporary fiction based on Douglas Bell's past experiences. Bell speaks from an African-American heteronormative (privileged) cisgender voice to candidly expose the trauma of transphobia and homophobia. Bell wants to humanize the struggle of trans women to live on their terms. Bell asks us to believe in ourselves, trust in ourselves, and don't let society define who you are.
