A monstrous red star is on a direct collision course with the Discworld and the future appears uncertain at best. Discworld needs a hero to save it from total destruction.

Download or read book Fierce Family written by Effie Seiberg and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strong, united families are rarely portrayed in speculative fiction. They're often dysfunctional, combative, self-destructive, or miserable, when they're portrayed at all. This is especially true for non-nuclear and adoptive families, single parent families and families with no children, which are easy targets for invalidation. And QUILTBAG families are almost never portrayed in speculative fiction, regardless of whether their families are loving or falling apart. 15 exhilarating stories of QUILTBAG families experiencing adventure, disaster, and triumph make up Fierce Family. They are families of any constellation: all sizes and configurations, families of choice as well as families by birth. They are caring and connected - when outside conflict arises, they come together to defend and aid one another. Fiercely, and without hesitation.

Download or read book Vampire Christ Book 1 Blood of the Lamb written by Jay Wilburn and published by Vampire Christ. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will one faithless TV preacher be enough to defeat a vampire messiah? Reverend Holland Sire never intended to hunt vampires across America, especially not in an election year. He was a small time preacher and a big time party hack working the evangelical vote. But his father's writings led him to the terrible truth. Every character in the Bible, every story, is about them. And some of those ancient undead saints still stalk mankind in the night with their glowing red eyes now turned on the seats of power within the United States. Ancient disciples and new converts to the faith of blood move to feast and conquer. No one is safe and nothing is sacred to the Vampire Christ. Vampire Christ: Blood of the Lamb rips open the veil to reveal the truth in this dark horror satire. The American Church, politics, modern culture, and current events mix together in an unholy splatter that only makes sense, if you can believe in vampires.

Download or read book Middletown 2 written by Jay Wilburn and published by IndieWrites. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea was simple: Gather a group of some of the best writers in the apocalyptic genre, give them parameters for a story, and let them go. That’s how Middletown Apocalypse came into being. The first book was an experiment...me wanting to show the world how individual writer voices can take on a single story and make it unique. And it worked. ...exactly how I’d expected. Mu. Ha. Ha. The reading public was surprised how well it worked. I was not. Why? Because there is some seriously good talent in the genre. Talent that could pull off what most would have normally considered an impossible feat. And here we are again. This time around we have some new writers, a new setting, a new premise (building slightly from the first), but the same idea...a collection of talent setting out to illustrate not only the power of “story”, but the power of the writer’s voice. I hope you enjoy the second edition of Middletown Apocalypse.

As the trio comes to grips with trying to set things right, their choices are tearing them apart worse than the zombies ever could.

I fought against him myself at one point and I'm still not certain he was ever really a man and not some figment we all just imagined when we needed a hero or a monster. Maybe he commands life and death like some kind of god. Maybe we are on our own like we always were. All I know for certain is that our lives are in our hands just like they always were.
