Kallin Rolken, unlike most, never wanted to join the Lunar Military. He was happy to drink and gamble his life away. But when a rebel group attacked his home planet, his own mother was one of the many casualties, and Kallin is out for blood. But being a grunt soldier won't do, not if he wants the revenge he craves. Star Cry is the most elite fighting force in the cosmos. They are the tip of the spear of the Lunar Military; and Kallin wants to drive it right through the heart of the rebels that took his mother. But as he climbs through the ranks, Kallin starts to see the corruption buried deep within the government and military he is fighting for. When rebel Amelia Jepson is taken prisoner by Star Cry, Kallin is suddenly conflicted as to where his loyalties lie. Because in the battle good versus evil, dark and light, is there a right side? For the cosmos allows both. Book 1 of the Lunar Woods Chronicles

“We are all at war with ourselves - that is what it means to be human." Jesse Ventura finds her world turned on its head when an accident leaves her personality fractured into five individual versions of herself all reflecting one of her dominant character traits. There's Con (whose brash and forward mannerisms get Jesse into trouble quickly), Meth, (the kind of person bullied into doing other people's homework), Temp, (who's volatile at best), Charity (who keeps giving away Jesse's things) and Wart (who's concerned about issues Jesse didn't know existed) But there are bigger problems to deal with. The company Jesse works for has more sinister designs for the Fracture technology, and instead of finding a solution to her problem, Jesse finds herself embroiled in the drama and presented with a difficult choice: join DexCorp and their ruthless CEO, or surrender herself and her fractures to an army of Merciless - fractures devoid of morals or pity, extracted to remove anyone that crossed DexCorp's path as painfully as possible... Hiding until the time is right to strike is her best option, but her fractures aren't making it easy. If she wants to survive, Jesse's going to have to learn to live with herself.

Seventeen-year-old Gavin Hillstone is resigned to being miserable for the rest of his life. Left alone in the world after his parents died in a fire when he was four, he was placed in foster care, which for him meant ending up in an abusive home with an alcoholic adoptive father. Gavin’s only escape is in taking and creating images. His camera is his refuge from the unending torture and isolation of daily life in his “family.” Until he learns by accident that he isn’t alone in the world after all. His father’s parents are still alive and living in Washington DC. When he takes the plunge and travels 3,000 miles to find his grandparents, he learns that they—and he—are part of something much bigger, and more dangerous, than he could ever have imagined. Something that has always put his family at risk and that will now threaten his own life, while forever changing it. He learns that he is one of the last descendants of a small group of Photo Travelers—people who can travel through time and space through images. But his initial excitement turns to fear, when he soon discovers that he and his grandparents are being pursued by the fierce remnants of a radical European Photo Traveler cult, the Peace Hunters. What Gavin has, they want! His adventure will take him to past eras, like The Great Depression and the Salem Witch Trials. Gavin will have to discover who he really is and must make choices that spell the difference between life and death for himself, for the relatives he now knows and loves, and for the girl he will come to love. For Gavin, life will never be the same.
