*FINAL EDITS BEING MADE - SEE PROFILE FOR MORE INFO* War is never pretty, and no one knows that better than Falka, Vala, and Altor. They've given everything they've had - in some cases, their lives - to the war effort. Vala was drafted when she was ten, Altor when he was fourteen, and Falka when she was fifteen. None of then wants the war to continue, and all are willing to do anything to see the bloodshed end. But there's a new fight brewing. The ultimate battle of good versus evil is coming and it threatens to destroy the crumbling remains of their world. Three people bred to kill from a young age now have their loyalties and their trust tested to the highest degree. If there's one thing that the governments of the world can't handle, it's an invasion of everything dark and malevolent. It's a battle between Gehenna and Arcadia and not every mortal gets a new star in the sky upon paying the ultimate price. And, as with all wars, not everyone can survive. But, as with all wars, not everyone's humanity can withstand the forces of hell.

From the author of THE BLAST and THE DEATHLESS TRILOGY comes a book of short stories about the Deathless characters whose stories deserve to be told.

The name's Chaos. Chaos Killbourne to be exact. People call me reckless, but they're wrong. I'm more like the perfect storm. Destroy an entire city with a single glance? I can do that. Wipe mankind off the face of the earth once and for all? I can do that too. Born to lead a revolt of epic proportions so the Dark Ones can rise up and rule the world is my destiny. Refusing to follow direct orders and become a weapon of mass destruction is my downfall. Cursed by fate, I'm currently on a collision course to form the perfect union in order to balance my explosive supernatural powers before I self-destruct, and take the planet with me. There's just one tiny problem. Once formed the union can never be broken. With a bad attitude and an even worse temper I can't be tamed. Not that I have time to worry about my love life, of course. I'm just trying to make it through high school in one piece. All I know for sure is that the future of mankind rests in my hands, which really pisses me off. I never asked to save the world. After all, I was born to destroy it. Copyright © 2014 ~ Somerlea All rights reserved.

I woke up in a lab. I don't know anything about myself and I'm not sure that I want to. I don't even know my own name, or what I'm doing here. There are other children here, too, some younger than me and some that are older; but none of them are...normal. We are all different in some way. I'm the only one that can talk and I probably will be the oldest as well. They usually live for a week at the most. We're usually caged, and we only leave the dark room when they want to experiment on us. Or kill us. The evil people call me their Ultimate Specimen that could change the world... But I'm just a girl who doesn't have an inkling of anything before this torture. The men and women here call me dangerous, harmless, a secret, a solution. I don't know what any of it means, but they continue their work and experiments on me. Why am I so fascinating? Why am I here? If you want to know what is happening behind your backs, then you must read this. I don't know many things at all, but I do know that I will somehow escape. Never to come back. ©2013 by E. Barnes.

When her father dies in a sudden bombing, Opal Hunt devotes herself to the task he left behind: finding the lost Library of Alexandria. Her quest takes her to the ruins in Alexandria, to the dens of pirates and spies, into the corrupt glittering streets of the Imperial City and beyond. As the journey unfolds, so do the secrets her father kept in his life: an affair with the Imperial Princess, a son exiled, and a throng of connections to an underworld with a tenuous circle of trust. This young adult novel blends dystopian fiction with ancient Roman influences in a fast-paced read that questions who should be the keepers of knowledge and asks how well we can ever know the people we love.
