Death has been personified in many ways throughout history; a dark, shadowy hooded figure with skeletal hands, the Devil, demons, even angels... angels... just the thought of it makes me want to laugh! We are far different from any of those beings. We can understand why you humans would believe such foolish things, though. You see, we used to be like you; slow, weak, oblivious to the world that is right in front of you. You give us many names; monsters, murderers, minions of the devil, and even angels of death. No, we are just like you. Physically, that is. And we are everywhere. In fact, if you are reading this right now, there is a good chance one of us just passed you by. Watching you. Making sure you don't see this. Oh, you poor unfortunate humans, not seeing the world as it truly is. We are the managers of life and death. We are the reapers.

Moby Dx: A Novel of Silicon Valley is the story of the life, times, trials and tribulations, loves, families, business partners, students, and college roommates of one-time MIT Professor and Moby Dx co-founder, Max Frood—as told by Princeton graduate Lakshmi Stein. Copyright 2014 by Melvillean Press, LLC Drink the Kool-Aid, or Don't Drink the Kool-Aid? That is the question of this novel. Full of intrigue, bad behavior, sex, and a vivid look at where we live, its characters discuss the workings of the venture business, trends in big data, biotechnology, and the history of modern biology. See www.mobydx.com for more information, reviews, an author interview, newsletter signup, etc. Moby Dx is a company. In the jargon of biotech, Dx is shorthand for diagnostics. Pronounce the title however you like, but I call it Moby D X. What's put up on Wattpad is Volume 1, Max Ebb. There will be six volumes. The Prologue to Volume 1 is an introduction to Silicon Valley, written as a takeoff on Melville's hilarious chapter on Nantucket. Then the reader is put in the able hands of narrator Lakshmi Stein who tells her origin story before jumping back in time to set up her introduction to Jay Orrix, Max Frood, and molecular biology. We follow Max from Cambridge, to Southeast Asia, to France, and to Cambridge. We know Silicon Valley is coming, but like everyone who lives there, they have to get there first. If you want to binge on Volume 1 rather than drink from the serialization on Wattpad, then go to Amazon where the book becomes available on Feb 10. There's a much needed glossary on in it, too. For a subscription to all six volumes, go to www.gum.co/mobydx.

In the small town of Ambrose, Oregon, neutrality and repose was the social norm. For Khris Winters it was the complete opposite. Raised in a violent ambiance, chinook outbursts from her alcoholic father were all she ever knew. But after a particularly violent attack, a twist of fate changes everything and Khris comes face-to-face with the Andersons, a well-versed and esteemed family. However, as Khris becomes closer to the matriarch and her son, she begins to uncover secrets better left under the dust. Better yet, that the Andersons are not all that they seem to be.

You’re about to read Hereafter. Possibly you’ve already read, Maitreya, and may have a sense that the storyline was not pure fiction. Much of the plot was inspired by made-up stories in pop culture, as in the Twilight characters, Bella and Edward, as well as Hunger Games’ Katniss and Peeta. Mixed into the fiction, however, were biblical facts as well as influences of a spiritual Truth I feel blessed to have had been brought to my attention. When Fallon arrives in heaven, few if any of her childhood imaginings were realized. It wasn’t the complete displacement and culture shock that she’d expected. First of all, her glorified body was similar to and certainly much better than the one she left behind on earth. Having a physical body, heaven was a destination with recognizable buildings and roads, places for people with bodies to go and ways to get there. Fallon soon learned that being in heaven was no vacation. She’d graduated from spiritual grammar school when leaving earth. Now it was time for spiritual boot camp before joining the Marines of the spiritual hierarchy in heaven.
