Cursed with immortality, Mars goes on a journey with his lifelong more-than-friends partner Astral, a painfully average future-seeing mage, to find the root of magic, in an effort to ease the side effects of Astral's visions - and to finish their thesis so they can graduate from college. *** Mars can't die. He was cursed with immortality as a baby, while the rest of his family died in a housefire, set by 'bad mages'. Or so he was told. Growing up in the magical college, he's taught he isn't a mage - and not a human either. When he and his only friend and confidant, Astral, go on a journey to finish their final thes is for college, they expected everything to go smoothly. But getting around isn't easy when you've got a friend who hates to walk - and who actually isn't a friend but so much more. Complications arises and Mars has to figure out his priorities: finding out the truth about his origins, finding a cure for Astral's seizure-inducing visions, picking up strays and 'adopting' them or finishing their degree.

The Magnetron Chronicles, Volume 1 Phineas Magnetron is an eccentric Nineteenth Century inventor blessed with a strange gift he doesn't completely understand. As a former soldier and current member of the Hogalum Society, an inscrutable secret organization of crime fighting adventurers, Phineas is no stranger to peril and derring-do. But when the Society founder dies, Phineas embarks on a daring and improbable caper to bring the good doctor's greatest dream to fruition posthumously. In the process, he not only horrifies his Society brothers, but unearths a haunting and compelling mystery. About The Magnetron Chronicles: The Magnetron Chronicles is a serialized steampunk tale told in the grandiose style of Jules Verne, but with satirical Twainian wit. Chapter by chapter, the story builds as quirky new characters join the fray and perplexing new mysteries and situations arise. Traveling the globe, Phineas Magnetron and his Hogalum Society encounter suspicious policemen, mentally ill criminals, wood-craving aliens, a witch doctor, a mad oracle, and a cross-dressing female matador, among many others. However, this "steam dream team" always manages to triumph over impossible odds and improbable obstacles as they preserve order in a disorderly world.
