Robert Epperson embarks on a quest away from an otherworldly college realm on the High Plains of Texas and into a corporate cauldron that induces an altered state. Once he is awakened to American tyranny, Robert takes his girlfriend, Jennifer, on a supercharged ride to save his family in a small Texas town. Little does Robert know that the same authoritarianism he tries to warn against will bring him down and force an epic transformation, one that shapes his perception of Jennifer's pivotal role in the game of being cruel to be kind.

Thistles Landing — a fresh and current retelling of mythical, archetypal heroic journeys — is a dynamic, engrossing, and thought-provoking read that will keep you turning pages as you venture into lost territory of the mind and heart.

Decorated with a latticework of surreal poetic visuals — a steady camera recording through the eyes of mania — this thrilling account of Robert's emerging disorder pits raw, often unpalatable emotion against the background of loving and supportive relationships. One must give way to the other, and, through some stumbling about, the path eventually becomes clear.

Robert's conquest, and yours, is a soundtrack for breaking down in order to build anew. The journey from the fall must go though a harsh winter before the hope of spring returns, a lesson that applies both at an individual level and to the evolution currently occurring in American society.

A WOMAN WHO’S RUN OUT OF OPTIONS

Ever since Harriet Gilfrey’s mother died, she’s worked as a maid in the mansions of the rich. Without a dowry, she can’t expect to marry well in Chicago, so she pays to be listed in a mail-order bride catalog. But most of the men who write her seem to be interested in one thing—her looks.

When Harriet is blamed for breaking an antique vase and loses her job, her only option is to accept a proposal from a man she barely knows. She chooses Lewis because he’s the first man to seem interested in her for who she is, rather than what she looks like.

A MAN WHO WILL FIGHT FOR WHAT’S HIS

Lewis Sharp has spent four long years tending his homestead, and all that work is about to pay off. He’s ready to settle down, but there’s only one problem: all the women he’s found through the mail-order bride catalog are interested in one thing—his money.

So when he meets a woman who cares more about family than finances, he proposes. Harriet seems intelligent and kind, and she’s used to the kind of hard work that a farmer’s wife must do.

A SECRET THAT WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING

Harriet arrives in Salvation to learn that Lewis is literally betting the farm on his next harvest: if anything happens to his crops, he won’t be able to pay his debts.

To make matters worse, a slick businessman named Edmund has been pressuring Lewis to sell his land…and when Lewis refuses, a string of unfortunate events plague the farm. The law is no help: Lewis can’t prove that Edmund is behind his misfortunes.

But the real mystery is why Edmund wants the land in the first place. It’s not worth what he’s offering, and it’s clear that the businessman has no intentions of becoming a humble farmer.

Can Harriet and Lewis figure out why Edmund is after their home before the dastardly businessman forces them out?

Only four months left, then Dave Martinez is a free man.
Dave is an eighth-grader at Lakeville Boarding School, the school for boys with unexplored potential (aka losers). If he can control his impulse to steal, he can return home and attend regular public school. If he doesn’t, he will be sent to Birmingham High, the worst high school on the planet, and his life will be doomed forever. For just a few more months, he needs to stay out of trouble and keep a low profile. And he’s pretty good at that.
Then Dave gets a new roommate, Tom Grant. Tom is allergic to boring and doesn’t know how to listen to rules. His wild plans involve all of his roommates, especially Dave. They’re dragged along with Tom as he hunts animals (and teachers in pajamas), goes sledding on cafeteria trays, and drives bulldozers through the night. Dave’s chances of keeping a low profile are going down the drain.

Will Logan and Selena find a way to put these shattered girls back together? Or will the strain of caring for the traumatized twins destroy their marriage?
