Most people go to Las Vegas with dreams of striking it rich, winning big at the casinos, and becoming a millionaire. This is not Kayden June's dream. He has come to Las Vegas to lose everything if possible, a seemingly easy thing to do in a city designed for consuming money, but a task that becomes deceptively difficult for this unlucky man from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. When a three-year engagement to his best friend Lucille falls apart, Kayden himself falls apart. He now dreams of an outrageous gambling spree in Vegas, anticipating he will lose his entire life's savings. Instead, he gains an unexpected friendship under circumstances he could have never imagined. All thanks to a drug called Dexomeral. Dexomeral (Dexo for short) can fulfill your every dream. It can take you anywhere or anywhen you want to go. You can become anyone you want to be. Dexo users experience their perfect life all within their minds, thanks to a drug effect called the Lucid Hypnotic State. To his chagrin, Kayden meets and then befriends a Dexo user, a man whose fantasy is to become a young school-age boy just starting life in kindergarten and still needs diapers at night. But who is the real person behind the dream? With Dexomeral, the lines between reality and fantasy can be erased. Can Kayden give his friendship to two wildly different persons of vastly different ages? Well, as the slogan goes, “You haven’t seen everything until you’ve seen it in Vegas.”

Sometimes Respect Has To Be Earned The Hard Way. The end of an arduous apprenticeship is close at hand, and Kayden Jayta unexpectedly learns that being the favoured apprentice of a living legend is not conducive to gaining the respect she deserves. With little time left to change perceptions, simmering resentment persuades her that drastic action is required to redress the slights of her detractors. Measures that may jeopardise her induction into the Order, and endanger her life. An overheard conversation presents Kayden with both the means and justification to pursue her objective. The key to attaining the respect she craves lies beyond the borders of the Nine Kingdoms. But the window of opportunity is small; the danger she must face, great; and the price of failure, greater still. Undeterred, she will allow nothing and no one to hinder her from the path she must walk. The one-woman mission to a foreign land will test Kayden’s abilities like never before. If she is to succeed in her dangerous manhunt, she must overcome enemies new and old before facing an adversary she maybe ill-equipped to defeat. And little does she suspect that her reckless endeavour will have unintended consequences, forcing the legendary Fay Annis to confront her infamous past. But the trials and tribulations that lie ahead must surely be worth the risk, for only unprecedented action will permit the headstrong apprentice to step out of her master’s shadow.

Some kids are scared of the dark. Others are afraid of monsters. But when it comes to ten-year-old Kayden Richards...well, let's just say he's really not a fan of pickles. And while you might think that no normal person should ever be frightened of a food, perhaps the reason why Kayden hates pickles so much is because he's always in one—whether he's causing mischief at home, finding himself in sticky situations at school, or brewing up trouble with the old ladies in his neighborhood's watch group. But hey, life is hard enough when you're ten. And that's before you throw in a mother who's a drill sergeant, a wild skydiving grandma, and an annoying little brother whose name rhymes with yours. Not to mention being stuck with a broom-riding witch and mad scientist as your teachers. Plus, a kid on your basketball team whose main goal in life is to make yours miserable. But with Kayden so busy trying to steal the spotlight and seek revenge, will he ever stop to learn the importance of working together as a team?
