The Mystery of Meri


Book Description

The result of all these civil wars was complete destruction. Maybe we should have taken a hint from all those wars we fought ""over there"" and the footage came back showing entire cities now only towering, shattered icons that stood in piles of rubble. Uninhabited. uninhabitable. Yet this one woman stayed there. This was her new home, she repeated stubbornly. She wasn't leaving. Even though it meant eventual death. If the warring armies didn't come back to fight again, bombing the remains to gravel, she'd eventually just waste away. But that was the way she wanted it. She at least could remember how all this used to be. When it still was a ""land of the brave, home of the free."" Get Your Copy Now.

A recurring post-apocalypse scenario that only loops on an immortal being trapped at its center, and able to kill anyone who tries to help her. - A Smart Home who kicks out the owners, reassigns their title, and turns off the lights in the neighborhood - except for the red and green lights that pulse in an ominous, haunted glow.

Time Bent


Book Description

Time haunted her. It didn't do what it was ""supposed to"" when she was around. It ran forward, backwards, sideways. Sometimes time helped her solve her problems, sometimes it made them worse. For a lovely young woman, you'd think there would be young men lined up to talk to her at any gathering. But she stayed away from them - to protect them from her curse. What would be the good of a comittment like that if the other person was going to age too fast or too slow - or live forever haunted with the thought of a long lost love? Or was this time-problem contagious? Were other people at risk because of her - or could she pass it onto her children? Life wasn't all that safe, just because you could bend time anyway you wanted.

The Hooman Saga: Book One


Book Description

Before the cities left, and plunged our world into a global dark age, there were stories that told that history. Collected here are the works of three authors who have been telling scraps and pieces of what happened. All through the eyes of the people (and animals) who lived it. Some are fantastic, others could be tall tales, perhaps some are downright lies. But that is all why they had to be published as fiction. Because few people would believe it, even as a TV documentary. All highly speculative. And that's why it's called Science Fiction. But its a very human telling. You may even find yourself in here...
