To Be True
The First Caper by K.D. Straus
If you have to choose between going too far or being too late, always choose too far.

When Marion exacts her revenge, her misdeed launches a plot to save her involving a motley crew of characters including a Canadian playwright and his theatre company, a notorious gang of female thieves, a countess's duplicitous lover, and a very devoted and decidedly unconventional aunt. If only they can shake the relentless investigator who wants to clip Marion's wings.

Aprician Files
The Star People by Gregory W. Rivers
Many ages ago, in a far off galaxy the Aprician Star People faced extinction as their sun began to die, threatening their twelve-planet system. In desperation, Master Nuri, the leader of the Council of Twelve, sent renowned explorer Girin to find a new home. His expedition ventured beyond their known universe and led them to Earth. Girin commanded a fleet of ships that interconnected to form the main vessel, each representing a different planet of Apricus. Their arrival unleashed unforeseen dangers. Some crew members, seduced by a dark, sinister energy, sought to spread chaos throughout human history. Yet, time and again, those with pure, untainted energy rose to oppose them, restoring fragile peace to the land—until the cycle began anew. Now, in the 1960s, a new group driven by dark energy has emerged, and they are seeking Earth’s ultimate power: the UTU, the source of the Sun’s lifegiving energy. Their goal? Is to enslave humanity and destroy the planet and claim dominion. Girin, now a metamorphic guardian of Earth’s enlightenment, assumes the form of a military enlisted man who is assigned to the investigative team into the UTU, hoping to stop the dark energy. But can he stand alone against a force fueled by hatred, destruction, and unrelenting malevolence? Blending mysticism, martial arts, and a gripping battle between light and darkness, Aprician Files is the thrilling prequel to Zeke, the first installment in the Ezekiel Reeves series.

In His Lyrics
by Jackleen Givens
“In His Lyrics” is a deeply personal memoir that offers a window into the stark realities of a family grappling with addiction, mental health issues, chronic homelessness, and a life of crime to support it. It’s a story that contrasts the outwardly normal childhood of Ashton, known for his friendliness and adventurous spirit, with the hidden struggles he faced, leading to extreme behavior and life on the streets by the age of fourteen.

The book delves into the turmoil that Ashton’s actions brought upon his family, detailing their journey through despair, fear, and helplessness. It highlights the isolation and judgment they faced and the personal spaces they retreated to in hopes to cope with the chaos that became their reality. The shattered dreams of a close-knit family are laid bare, as the narrative unfolds from the perspective of Ashton’s mother. Through its candid and vulnerable storytelling, “In His Lyrics” sheds light on the complex interplay between addiction, mental health, and criminal behavior, while also exploring the emotional responses of parents and a sibling to a loved one’s psychosis. This memoir doesn’t shy away from the raw and often unfiltered experiences of a family enduring what many would consider their worst nightmare, providing a poignant insight into their collective struggle and resilience.

A 1960s Global Odyssey
Around the World in 80 Months by David W. Skillan
During the turbulent 1960s, when much of the Western world was undergoing social upheaval and unrest, and years before computers, GPS, smartphones and modern-day guidebooks, two young men set off from their native England to work their way around the world. Their unique odyssey was crammed with adventure and incident, and many of their experiences were extraordinary-even by other seasoned travellers’ standards. While most of the book is based on the author’s personal experiences-different interests and employment sometimes took the friends their separate ways-it is basically the story of how the young men lived, worked and travelled in numerous countries, and of how they succeeded, despite all the odds, in attaining their goal. Above all, it is a story about life; hardship and happiness, frustration and fun, obstacles and opportunities, adversity, romance and personal fulfilment. Told in an easy to read, engaging way that is guaranteed to keep the reader interested and entertained throughout, this is a fascinating account of a unique, adventure-filled marathon world tour.
