Reality is an illusion...
Kaleidoscopic Shades - Within Black Eternity - now a multi-award winner and bestseller at Online Book Club for the past two months, is described as a hellish Alice in Wonderland and reminiscent of Stranger Things as well as a merging of Twin Peaks and The Twilight Zone.
Joshua Triplow is just your average kid living in what he believes is the best place on Earth: Corona, California. Only a recurring nightmare begins to plague him - and all the other kids in the best place on Earth. A nightmare of a man in black... the very same who haunts his father's tortured childhood.
And Joshua's father, Bob, begins to understand that what has been left behind half a world away in another lifetime has found a way to thrive... He learns there are no colors but black in a place far over the rainbow and that it continues to hoard the most vulnerable in a wrenching existence.
It is here that Bob will fight for his sanity and Joshua will confront countless lost souls... and a menagerie of clocks maddeningly ticking away the hour to nowhere. To the endless plains of Black Eternity.
Aly doesn't believe in psychics. Too bad she just had a vision.
Aly’s got enough on her plate, with finishing her degree and taking care of her nephew and starting her new job at the antique store while drooling over the owner's gorgeous son. No time for visions.
Alas, the universe doesn't care what Aly believes. When she turns 21, she starts to feel psychic impressions left on objects. A disorienting power for someone surrounded by antiques. Then cranky customer Earl is killed, and Aly's new boss Olive is the prime suspect—not to mention the only person who understands Aly’s gifts. Who hated Earl enough to kill? Police would rather make a quick arrest than investigate, so it's up to Aly to clear Olive's name.
Shady Grove is reeling from the first murder in decades. If Aly can get her hands on the right object, she'll know what happened. Can she learn to control her visions before the killer sets their sights on her?

ONE LAST STEP (A Tara Mills Mystery—Book One) is the debut novel in a new FBI mystery series by debut author Sarah Sutton.
Two hikers go missing along the Appalachian Trail, leaving only a bloodstained forest behind them, and when another hiker collapses on someone’s porch in New Hampshire, murdered by crossbow, the local police realize they have a serial killer on their hands––and need to call in the FBI.
FBI Agent Tara Mills is young, brilliant and new to the force. With a promising career in front of her, she faces the ultimate test when she is assigned the case. It soon proves to be more challenging than she ever could have imagined––an impossible riddle that leaves even her seasoned partner stumped.
Meanwhile, something about the case stirs a darkness within her––a tortured past that even her long-term boyfriend doesn’t fully understand. As nightmares consume her, she only hopes that her past will not come back to ruin her once again.
As more hikers go missing, and with her job on the line, Tara finds herself on a race against time as she combs through the forest’s trails. Peeling back each layer, she soon realizes that she is up against a true diabolical mastermind. And just when she thinks she has it all figured out, her instincts lead her to the most shocking truth of all.

The bad guys want her dead. But first they have to get past Breed.
Breed is on vacation in Arles, France when he sees a group of men open fire on a car. In the gun battle that ensues, a young girl escapes from the vehicle and runs for her life.
Breed pulls her to safety. Her name is Julia and she was abducted by the gang in the car. They forced her to take heroin, and when she was addicted, used her as a sex slave.
The slavers want to recapture Julia, and it soon becomes clear that the anonymous men who fired on the car want her dead. Breed is determined to keep Julia alive, but to do that, he’ll need to figure out who is after her and why.
On the run, outnumbered and outgunned, he calls for help from his friends: CIA Deputy Director Anya Stein, Delta Force veteran Ken Takigawa, and cowgirl sharpshooter Heth Crockett.
From Arles to Seville in Spain, Breed fights to keep Julia alive. The chase leads to a deadly showdown on the blood-soaked sand of La Maestranza, Seville’s great bullring.

An excerpt from The Claustrophobic Gopher:
“Hurry, hurry, GJ, we’re not safe until we’re underground.”
“But Mommy.”
“Please realize how dangerous it is for gophers. Bigger animals want to eat us, and the mean gardener sets traps to catch us.”
“But Mommy.”
“Here, now quickly, down our gopher hole.”
“But, Mommy, our home is so dark and tight. Why can’t I stay outside? I want to breathe the fresh air and feel the warmth of the sun!”
“No more buts unless it is your little butt in front of me running down the hole. Now!”
Once safely inside, Mommy plugs the hole, and they are safe. She loves her little tunnel home. It is right below a vegetable garden and, in fact, some of the vegetables actually grow down into their front tunnel. Often as Mommy or GJ crawl through the tunnel, they take a bite of a carrot, a beet or potato. They call it ‘tuber eats.’

Murderbot—the sardonic, almost-homicidal, media-loving android created by Martha Wells—has proven to be one of the most popular characters in 21 st century science fiction. Everything that makes this protagonist (it would be wrong to call Murderbot a hero) beloved of fans is on display in Compulsory.
While trying to watch episode 44 of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon, Murderbot is—again, what is it with humans?—distracted by something that is technically outside its purview. A miner is suddenly in danger following a pointless (to Murderbot’s way of thinking) argument, and the choice is to risk discovery and leap into action, which would require hitting the pause button during a very exciting part of SanctuaryMoon, or to follow orders and stay still.
This is a tougher choice than it seems. But then, when has Murderbot ever been faced with an easy choice?
