A true Alexandrian never fears the sea. A true Alexandrian never turns his back to the waves. Ali knows that those myths end today. If he faces the Blue Mountains, he dies. If he tries to outrun them, he dies. While the people of Alexandria are still anxious about their dark nights and dead phones after the 1st wave of EMP, they are unaware that Wave 2 is coming and the Bride of the Mediterranean is about to be wiped off the map for good. Fortunately, or unfortunately, Ali is the only hope for his family to flee from the inevitable, but he has to choose: either he runs for his life, or he dies with the people he loves.

Can love bloom in the coldest corner of the Solar System? Or will it become a feast for an ancient evil? In 2127, humanity clings to survival inside metal domes, and Enceladus, Saturn's frozen moon, stands as the promise of a fresh start. Cordon, a young pilot carrying the weight of billions of dreams on his shoulders, arrives at Delta E Station with a single goal: to help repopulate the species. But his greatest challenge won't be gravity; it will be learning how to "breathe" under the tutelage of Saraha, aTai Chi master and lieutenant who challenges both his balance and his heart. However, human progress comes with a price. Deep within the sub-glacial ocean, a single drop of blood awakens the Queen, a sentient, starving entity capable of infiltrating every drop of water on the station. She doesn't just want to consume bodies; she feeds on desire, adrenaline, and the budding love between Cordon and Sarah. As the base transforms into a death trap and the countdown to destruction begins, Cordon must discover if true balance lies in holding up the world alone or in learning to let it go to save the one he loves. Terror has a new taste. And it's coming for you.

Amber Garrett, the newest BLINK agent, is forced to prove herself when her first mission involves an alien threat that could destroy all of humanity. ***** Amber Garrett can blink teleporting herself to anywhere she wants to go which means she's a natural recruit for the galaxy-spanning BLINK organisation. Fresh out of training she's sent to a colony on the edge of space where contact has been lost. The colony's silence however isn't due to an equipment malfunction and Amber quickly discovers she's the last hope the BLINK organisation has to stop a threat to the entire galaxy. It may be her first mission but she'll have to use every ounce of her talent not just to stay alive but to prevent the destruction of all of humanity. [NB.

Max Niekro, the undead juggernaut that brought the Risen into space to war against Earth's enemies, is gone. Left behind are the tattered remnants of the once-mighty force that defeated the Velkin and brought the Vanguard of the Blood to its knees, staring across the Abyss at two old foes that have raised their heads to focus their malevolence on Earth once more. Can Max's neo-shell clone, Two take up the reins that his progenitor carried and lead the Risen once more to victory? Or will two universes burn as a mad god and a K'ethik swarm try to consume the universe whole?

"This book speaks to anyone with a neurodivergent brain, that may feel like an alien here on earth. I swear Browning made me laugh and cry and question reality...sometimes all in the same sentence." -JD Todd, author The universe is a very strange place. It will take even stranger heroes to save it. Potto is dim-witted, extremely forgetful and incredibly naïve. He wasn't always this way. Aye-Aye is devilishly shrewd and has boozed his way into a comfortable existence of incompetence and sleaze. How they ended up being two of the most wanted aliens in the galaxy is anyone's guess. Chased down by every oddball bounty hunter in the known universe, and befriended by a libidinous assassin, a fire-breathing reptilian, and a telepathic tree, their misadventures take them past Earth (the mall planet), to a floating sex circus, a planet of killer stuffed animals, an underground spaceship impound lot, and to a planet of reasonably priced bungalows. All while flying around in a ship powered by the brain waves of a psycho killer. A great prophecy proclaims that only "one of light, and one of dark" can save the universe from the dictatorship of The Node. That can't be Potto and Aye...Potto doesn't know what the word prophecy means, and neither know how to spell it. Part sci-fi epic, part absurd dark comedy, I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room is a comment on human behavior, depression, anxiety, and self-esteem. But way more fun than that sounds. So, do up your space seatbelts...it's going to be a bumpy ride. Despite the lack of potholes in space. (Sci-fi /Dark Humour/Absurd) *Completed! Enjoy!

Seventeen-year old pizza delivery boy Joe Smith lives a simple life - he has a bike, a job, and a crush on a girl. That's about it. He doesn't have dreams beyond working on the family farm and continuing to live in the same rural community in which he was born. Until one night when everything changed. After finishing his shift at the pizzeria, he heads home, riding his bike down a lonesome stretch of highway. Guided by the dim glow from the moonlight and a small light affixed to his helmet, he battles fatigue as he struggles to peddle the long distance home. When a strange object flies overhead fast and low, and crashes into a neighbour's cornfield, Joe is quick to investigate. Thinking it was a small plane or a downed satellite, Joe rushes to the scene of the crash. What he discovers is far beyond anything he has ever seen or even imagined before. The strange craft is definitely not from this planet. Hiding among the tall stalks of corn, Joe watches with caution as a mysterious being crawls out from the rubble.
