Balance, something hard to attain, and even harder to sustain. Almost like walking a sword's edge, everyone waits with baited breath to see if you will be able to walk along it, or if you will fall to the side. It is infinitely harder when you must oversee the balance of other people, but to try and force it upon gods? Impossible, or so most think. Artemis must find a balance of her own, in her duty. First though, she must discover what her new duties are. She has gone from a student studying in Greece to an embodiment of retribution, the successor of Nemesis herself. Another task for the list, how does a goddess die?

After a century of contending with Pertuli's dogged silence, Riposte Clasicant has at last won the only clue in a mystery that weighs heavily on his heart. Will his satisfaction survive a lethal encounter with a mysterious woman from his past? In Silver Blades novellas, we follow the adventures of Rip Clasicant, who for reasons of his own has neglected both duty and honor in recent decades. His debauchery rubs his peers the wrong way, and often they seek restitution in blood. Only superior skill with a blade has kept him alive thus far.

A comic apocalyptic sci-fi romp. The zombie apocalypse has come and gone, the world has ended, humanity has crumbled... Nobody told the aliens. Alien brains have some interesting side effects on the ravenous undead. Just ask zombie Li, who wakes up after a quick bite. The world is a wasteland, she's a walking corpse, and her 'snack' melted into a noxious puddle of goo. It's not her day. Determined to figure out what the hell happened to her world, Li hits the road, seeking others like herself. The end of the world brings strange company, and stranger enemies. Struggling to wrap her head around being a zombie and already Li's existence is in danger thanks to impending alien invasion. It's going to take more than a handful of quirky zombies to stop them. She's going to need some serious fire power, like the remnants of the human race. If she can find them. #7 in Science Fiction on 12/3/15 ***Second Place for Science Fiction in Best Fiction Competition*** ***Contains a sprinkling of strong language and zombie violence.
