Deacon Maynard may be young, but he is hardly idealistic. A Tech Repairman, he spends his days surrounded by tools and broken phones, watching the news unfold on the television while carefully trying to avoid the reality that seems inevitable.
There is a war out there... and it is creeping closer and closer to his home.
Elvander, a high-tech country miles away, is locked in a colossal battle with the deadly terrorist organization, Shadow Cannon... and it's a war Deacon wants nothing to do with.
Until he spies a flash of light outside his apartment window and discovers Ragnar, a giant machine Golem meant to be a Shadow Cannon secret weapon - a machine that is now asking for his help.
Suddenly thrust into a war he wants no part of, Deacon must struggle to discover the truth, save his strange new friend and possibly save the world.

Echoes

It's only when someone she doesn't particularly want to help asks for safety that she questions how much of her former boss she is going to mirror in her own leadership. As months pass into years, Vida is faced with forming and breaking alliances based on her decision and is left wondering if she made the right choice with one Lucas Bradley's request for amnesty. --- Before he was handed the keys to a collapsing kingdom by one Vida Mehr, Lucas had his own plans to climb as many ranks as he could. The sacrifices made along the way couldn't have mattered more than taking upper echelon positions...could they? In the aftermath of their alliance, Lucas wonders what he will need to do to both keep from stepping into his former commander's footsteps and keep his own medical condition from damaging the progress this truce has made. -- Vol watches the world change around them after Vida and Lucas's alliance solidifies, but is forced to balance their own life's changes while observing the new peace. -- (A short story in three parts)Complete
Mirror Sky. Part 1 - Blissful Nemesis
The future is predetermined. It can't be changed. But who casts the future in stone? It's you, me, and every one of us. The iron grip of our fate doesn't come from gods or physics but from us. You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate. Time travel is meaningless for the same reason - all your meddlings had also become a part of your fate before you even embarked on your journey through time. Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?Complete
"Titanfall: Rift Wars" Pacific Rim x Titanfall Crossover
In this Pacific Rim x Titanfall crossover, In a world still reeling from the devastation of the Kaiju War, humanity finds itself facing an even greater threat-an unstable dimensional rift deep in the Pacific, threatening to unleash a new breed of monstrous horrors. When the rift pulses with energy never before seen, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps (PPDC) turns to an unlikely source for salvation: the remnants of the Frontier Militia's Vanguard-class Titans and their elite Pilots. Commander Sarah Briggs, a battle-hardened Titan Pilot, leads a daring mission alongside legendary Jaeger pilots Mako Mori and Jake Pentecost to stop the rift from fully opening. But when a new kind of Kaiju-faster, stronger, and more intelligent than ever before-emerges, it becomes clear that brute force alone won't be enough. As alliances are tested and sacrifices are made, the team must harness the unique capabilities of both Titans and Jaegers in a desperate last stand against an enemy that threatens not just Earth, but the very fabric of reality itself. With time running out and the rift spiraling out of control, Sarah and her Titan, Vanguard, make the ultimate sacrifice to close the breach. But even as the dust settles, a terrifying question remains: was this truly the end, or just the beginning of a new war? The battle for humanity's survival has only just begun.Complete

The Edge of Darkness
"I did not choose to become this way. This corrupted, innocent body. Who in their right mind would willingly choose this life?" Max is just one of thousands of unwilling cyborgs sent home after the interstellar war. With the threat of recycling haunting her every move, she can't even touch the only bright spot in her life: strong, handsome Ethan. Love means nothing to a cyborg - they're not even human. The robotics makes them incapable of love. They can not marry. They cannot raise children. So why does Max's heart race when she meets Ethan again on the long journey home? Why does his forbidden touch feel so good, and set her blood burning? And why are so many cyborgs recycled when they are otherwise healthy and able to perform their work? With the strange alien Authorities watching every move, Max uncovers a conspiracy bigger than the war than enslaved her in the first place. To find an escape from the horrific nightmare that her transport spaceship home has become, Max must race to find the answers and save the people she cares about, before her world and everything she knows is lost to darkness. The Edge of Darkness was first published in 2011 and is available in complete e-book form and paperback on both Smashwords and Amazon.
