The Visitors by Charles Bennett Price verified 7 hours ago

1962. A nuclear war has sent humanity fleeing underground into tunnels, mines, and basements... when, suddenly and disastrously, the world is attacked by "The Visitors." Militaries fight back, successfully at first, sending the alien entity into a seeming retreat. But six months later it reemerges to devastate the world's capitol cities. Mexico City and New York are obliterated in surprise attacks, and now the entity has moved its hub to England. Only eight days remain until London will be destroyed. Humanity's survival rests with seven intrepid souls on a mission to defeat the invisible presence. Charles Bennett (1899-1995) is credited with creating the modern film thriller genre directed by Alfred Hitchcock. An actor, playwright, stage-director, director, screenwriter, and novelist, he was awarded the Writer's Guild of America-West "Screen Laurel Award" in 1995 for his lifetime contribution to film. The Visitors merges his 'man on the run' and 'Joint Quest' thriller elements with a post-nuclear war, dystopian vision of the world and its invasion by an alien presence. Previously unpublished and forgotten for sixty years, The Visitors combines the romance and escapes of the films The 39 Steps (1935) with the 'save the world' theme of his Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1961), and the invisible menace of Night (Curse) of the Demon (1957). It is memorable statement of a bygone era captured by one of filmmaking's greatest screenwriters. Editor John Charles Bennett has devoted considerable time to explaining his father's contributions to film, and to publishing his father's novels. First he edited and published the Charles Bennett memoir Hitchcock's Partner in Suspense: The Life of Screenwriter Charles Bennett (University Press of Kentucky, 2014). Then he wrote and published a two volume study titled Charles Bennett and Alfred Hitchcock: The Rise of the Modern Thriller (Kindle Direct, 2020).available from Amazon in multiple formats.

Benjamin Borntrager was doing typical Amish teenager things like helping around the family farm, trying to hide worldly books from his parents, and looking forward to rumspringa while dreaming of a potential future outside the restrictive confines of his isolated Amish community. All that is thrown away when Ben and his siblings find themselves amongst the last survivors of a global apocalypse when a primate-targeting virus known only as The Flu wipes out most of humanity in a few short weeks. Ben was brought up in the type of lifestyle one would think would make him the perfect person to survive alone in the middle of the countryside near a small Wisconsin town that is barely more than a blip on a map. Life isn't that simple, though. When he's searching for meaning amongst the death and decay, it's hard to think about the farm. Survival might mean something more than stocking supplies and scavenging homes while entropy claims them, especially when family is involved. In a new story set not too far from where Twist began his journey in the original Survivor Journals trilogy, a new hero crawls out of the wreckage of humanity to try to make a go of surviving at all costs after a sudden and brutal viral apocalypse.

Can he atone for his past sins and help save what's left of humanity? ... Dr. Lawrence Jansen has lost his wife and his world. The most powerful force in the universe has killed off nearly all plant and animal life on Earth, and human survivors are few and far between. In the aftermath of the cataclysm, Larry Jansen also fears he has lost his mind. A young man claiming to be Satan offers to help him regrow the Garden of Eden, between the Tigris and Euphrates, so that any survivors might have food. The supposed devil assures Dr. Jansen that if they do, not only the planet, but also his wife, can live again. With no other options, the scientist agrees to help 'Beelzebub' with the task, using Neville Kaddo's private jet to transport seeds from the Norwegian seedbank to Iraq. Is love even more powerful than a gamma ray burst? Is there a way to restore hope to a barren world and a barren heart? Or, is it all a trick of a fractured, ancient soul? Author's note to my regular readers: I know that you want and expect a romance... this time, there is a bit of science and philosophy before you get to it :) Don't worry, it all ties together with the love story...

Justice and Her League: Fast Burn Why Choose Romance (Demigods Trilogy Book 1) by TJ Bell (6 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

My name is Justice, and yeah, I'm a demigod. So far as I can tell, that status isn't all that impressive. I'm supposed to have magical powers, but all I've ever done is accidentally kill my mother. The only thing I have going for me is that I'm stronger, with sharper senses, than most humans. I've managed to turn those traits into something useful: I kill bad guys for a living. So long as I avoid those pesky human authorities (they aren't keen on vigilante justice) and don't get killed myself, I figure I'm winning. Until I run into them. Ajax, Malcolm, and Rafe. Ajax is quiet, reserved, stronger than anyone I know. Malcolm is the laidback Southern boy always looking for a good time. Rafe is the wise one, the one who sees too much... and has too many secrets. They are three outrageously sexy demigods. Who happen to be my fated mates. Hell, I didn't think I'd ever find one, let alone three. Despite all our differences, it works. Well, the steamy part of our relationship, anyway. The rest? Not so much. As it turns out, I've mated with three altruistic men, and they aren't willing to allow me to continue on with my vigilante ways. They say we're a team now and we have to work together. But I've always worked alone. Justice & her League is the first book in the Demigods Trilogy. It is intended for mature audiences: 18+ readers only! It contains adult language and sexual situations. This is a fast burn romance where the girl gets all the guys. Why choose?

The Sorceror's Lament: Chronicles of Azaria (An Enemies to Lovers Fantasy Adventure) (The Sorceror Saga Book 1) by Sam Dogra (33 Reviews)    Price verified 3 minutes ago

A talented young Magician must choose between power or love as she investigates a dark conspiracy that could unravel magic itself. Ever since the restoration of magic, Magicians and Enchanters have been in an uneasy alliance. The Magicians' power maintains peace, while the Enchanters' potions prevent magic's dangerous side effects. But the Enchanters have become increasingly evasive, and the High Magician suspects foul play. Thus eighteen-year-old Jessie Balthanders, a Magician prodigy, is recruited to investigate. If she can expose their possible treason, she'll be hailed a hero. She finds herself apprenticed to Lahara Redford, a powerful but jaded Enchanter who deeply mistrusts Magicians. With tensions running high, the two must learn to work together as they are dragged into a dark conspiracy. But Jessie needs to find answers soon, and if Lahara discovers her true nature, she'll have far more than the High Magician's wrath to fear. The cost of success, however, may be far greater than failure. Perfect for readers who loved the slow burn enemies to lovers of Crier's War, the exotic setting of Jasmine Throne, and the redemption arc of Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender!
