Grudges: Epic Fantasy Adventure (Dungeon Raider Book 1) by J.R. Rain (Rain Press) (224 Reviews)    Price verified 2 minutes ago

The Forge... It's not a place that gives anyone the warm and fuzzies. No, The Forge is a dungeon mine that used to be home to the Deep Mountain Clan of dwarves. Then the orcs took control of it and forced the dwarves out. Now it's a death sentence to any who try to voyage into its dark depths. That's where I come in. No, I'm not some sort of soldier or mercenary trying to set things right. I'm a thief. And I've plundered many dungeons -- enough to have earned a reputation for myself. I'm good at what I do and that's the exact reason why I've been hired by holy knight, Cade, to take him into the bowels of The Forge. Cade was entrusted by his higher-up to retrieve a holy scroll, located in the belly of The Forge. The only problem (aside from the territorial orcs, the nightmarish beasts that roam the tunnels and shafts, and the fact that no one has ever reached the final level of The Forge) is... My ex-boyfriend, Aram. Right. So, this isn't one of my prouder moments, but a long time ago, Aram and I were together. Then I stole something precious from him and he's been after me ever since. Well, you know what they say about karma... My karma finally caught up to me when Aram staged a setup and I fell for the bait. Imagine Aram's irritation when he finally gets the chance to arrest me, but then Cade shows up with this quest. Even though Aram is a Justiciar, an enforcer of the law, Cade's rank trumps Aram's which means Cade's word goes. And Cade wants me to lead this expedition. As I see it, I have two choices: rot inside a jail cell for the rest of my life or take my chances in The Forge, with the potential to earn my freedom. I choose The Forge. After all, I'm always up for an adventure. Click BUY NOW or READ FOR FREE to start the Dungeon Raider fantasy series today!

"... a solid and satisfying follow-on to the unique Volume 1... ""... these volumes have history and light science fiction set in an alternative, dystopian existence brought on by humanity's chase for a quick nuclear solution to world war II.""... Feynman and Boyd finally come together. Good read. There better be a volume three coming. "- GoodreadsSitting alone in his truck, Richard Feynman watches the Trinity Test fail. A year later, months after the celebrations that follow the end of World War Two, Lottie Boyd drifts alone on the Atlantic with a sniper rifle over her lap, one of the few to have escaped the Silent Zones.The fear that a large scale nuclear event would kick off a chain reaction of much more stable elements going into a fisson-state, burning the planet away, was real in the formative years of atomic testing. In Feynman and Boyd, the reverse occurs. The Trinity test fails due to a previously unidentified counter-reaction, where something in the natural world snuffs out combustion. The dusty by-product of this reaction, nicknamed "Deaden," is found to stabilize any combustible form, rendering weapons useless. The Manhattan Project quickly becomes a facility for creating Deaden. It is this anti-weapon that wins World War II. Within weeks of discovering Deaden, and using controlled reactions to manufacture it, it's then discovered that Deaden eventually also stops cellular combustion, killing every surrounding living thing. These areas are the Silent Zones. Despite this, manufacturing keeps being developed, and a massive, singular Silent Zone befalls most of the world, killing most living things in it's grip.

Billy "Panty Dropper" Comfort That's what people call me... Growing up with the last name Comfort meant that I'd inherited a legacy. In our small town, the older generation of Comfort men were known for three things: hard work, boozing, and tragedy. Some believed the latter was due to a curse that doomed every male in our bloodline to lose his true love tragically. I was of the mind that our fates were in our own hands. With my father's passing, my brothers and I were the new generation of Comfort men. We were also known for three things: fighting, flirting, and another F word that I'd never use in mixed company. My oldest brother was the fighter, my baby brother was the flirt, and that left me. I'd earned the nickname Panty Dropper by the time I was legally allowed to drink. It never bothered me much, until the day I laid eyes on a woman that made me want to be a better man. The only question was, would she see the real me, or would my past and the curse be too much... even for fate? Reagan "Runaway Bride" York That's what people were calling me... Growing up with a single mom who cared more about her next boyfriend than things like paying the electric bill, I was determined to create a stable, respectable life for myself as an adult.

The consequences of her decisions will reverberate for generations.

Only two years earlier, on July 16, 1945, the first test had occurred in Los Alamos, about a hundred miles north of Albuquerque, which they were flying above at that very moment. She remembered the reverberations on the Stell^r moon base from that explosion, the alarms that had shrieked and screamed. People had felt it, as if a vast chasm had been torn open in the universe. This was their fifth surveillance together of Earth. In the past, they surveyed other planets around this solar system. The Council had made it a priority to search for viability across the cosmos. However, ever since the Los Alamos event, they had been focusing a great deal around the American southwest. And before that, closer to Xanthe, in their own Andromeda Galaxy, searching for exoplanets to ensure its collective survival in the future. Rosaelyn's essential nature was that of an optimist, but that tear in the universe two years ago had daunted her optimism about the survival of Earth. Now that the power of that atomic explosion had been witnessed, what was to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons and eventual Armageddon? Would the Stell^rs intervene? When they were over a military base in Roswell, their ship suddenly began to lose altitude for no reason that she could determine. She snapped out of the meld, anxiously scanned the instrument panel, and realized there had been a catastrophic malfunction in the craft. It plunged downward through clouds, sunlight, and she leaped up and pulled on a special crash suit. The sound of her shouts shocked her as deeply as Fralix's paralysis, his inability to snap out of the meld. Once Rosaelyn was suited up, she grabbed his shoulders, struggling to pull him free. But now she would see the ...

The Second Sun: Volumes I & II by Kristof Morrow (30 Reviews)    Price verified 10 minutes ago

The plot of The Second Sun is an allegory for the financial inequality between the older and younger generations. There's an island paradise where there's elders living a second life after retiring from their human forms, and live amongst their chosen few, who also live for thousands of years in relative peace. However, only those welcome can actually approach the island and survive. Everyone else on earth is made to endure a game of thrones type world, except I omitted much of the overt cruelty you find in that series. I also forgo the notions of racism and sexism. l wanted to adopt the spirit of Tolkien, but expand that virtue of "anyone, no matter how small, can achieve great things," to every kind of human so it feels to be an adventure for everyone! I was diagnosed with Tourette's when I was 27, and so it's developed my understanding of the theft of agency and being marginalized for something I cannot control. It's also structured similarly to game of thrones, in that the first three chapters are different parts of the world with different characters, and you learn how they are related as the story progresses. The Second Sun is, above all things, an adventure made animate by hundreds of distinct characters across half a world, written to confess through prose and tale our tendencies poisoned by Dickensian bleakness, and to wholly ameliorate that cynicism by the light and courage of those who live and labor for a just peace.

Left on Paradise by Kirk Adams (20 Reviews)    Price verified 10 minutes ago

Before Portland, there was Paradise. Following the stolen presidential election of 2000, 102 intrepid progressives, led by self-absorbed Hollywood star Ryan Godson and his kind-hearted wife Kit Fairchild, make good on their threat to abandon a corrupted society still under the spell of Puritan fanatics, Yankee traders, and southern slavers. Now, a new society will be founded: a new country among the nations. This will be a land in which feminists, liberals, environmentalists, multiculturalists, pacifists, socialists, communists, communitarians, and progressives of every persuasion will remain unthwarted by the opposition and oppression of Republicans, social conservatives, and constitutionalists. Left on Paradise is a sweeping epic about a band of idealists who have forsaken family and friend to build a perfect word on a remote island in the south Pacific. From the thrill of first hope to the brink of deadly catastrophe, Kirk Adams relentlessly puts the band of idealists in a world in which they can live out the iron logic of their beliefs and dreams -- unencumbered by conservative resistance or religious restraint. Yet, they bring to Paradise the moral limits of their own ideals and character and soon find that they themselves have brought evil to their Eden. With riveting twists and turns in the plot that mirror contemporary (and historical) American political experience, the author shares political fiction that speaks to the cultural questions and divisions that contemporary Americans face, even as he offers a vision of what must not be sought. It's May 2001 and the band of political pilgrims have sailed to a remote island in the Pacific to found a new country: a true State of Paradise. Numbering the same as the settlers of Plymouth and Jamestown, the idealists have marched straight out of the 1960s to build the Great Society suspended by Nixon, Reagan, and the Bush family. These pilgrims will show the world what it means to be Left on Paradise -- or so they ...
