Book excerpt: "The water swirled around her, and she reached her hand toward the distorted surface. The faces faded, and then reappeared. Hands seemed to be reaching for her, as if to pull her back, but they never quite reached her, or slipped quietly through her, as if she were made of water herself." Madeline has made a lot of mistakes-in her marriage and her life-and has paid dearly for them. Her teenaged children have disowned her, her parents are disappointed and embarrassed, and her sister thinks that she needs spiritual help. Worst of all, her soon-to-be ex-husband is hell-bent on destroying her life and her relationships. When she finds herself on a plane to a mysterious tropical resort called Ashrama with a group of strangers, all with their own problems, she isn't sure she'll ever make it back home again. At first Ashrama seems like paradise, but soon the paradise starts to feel more like a prison. Her trinity of hosts appears to have an ulterior motive for their guests' visit, and Madeline must figure out what they intend for her. Ashrama holds many secrets, and in the end, as in the beginning, this place is not what it seems. But neither is Madeline.

His worrywart Uncle Moti and bionic lioness Besa are his only family... and his only friends. Often in trouble for his thrill-seeking antics and wisecracking sense of humor, those same qualities make Yared a star player of the underground augmented reality game, The Hunt for Kaleb's Obelisk. But when a change in the game rules prompts Yared to log in with his real name, it triggers an attack that rocks the city. In the chaos, Uncle Moti disappears. Suddenly, all the stories Yared's uncle told him as a young boy are coming to life, of kingdoms in the sky and city-razing monsters. And somehow Yared is at the center of them. Together with Besa and the Ibis -- a game rival turned reluctant ally -- Yared must search for his uncle... and answers to his place in a forgotten, galaxy-spanning war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soldier Island is a sci-fi thriller based on scientific events and government conspiracy. Sergeant Major Larry Smith and his team of knights are sent to a remote island known as Soldier Island. The objective was to obtain classified documents and retrieve a scientist known as Dr. Zhan. Sergeant Major agreed with the objective, but he had his doubts, but a soldier does as they're ordered. Upon arrival, things were already weird because there was no indication that life existed. Sergeant Major and his knights searched for Dr. Zhan, but they stumbled upon something more—creatures that lurked in the shadows, ex-soldiers who became ill with cancer, and the experiment went wrong. The creatures had military tactics and were smarter than the average human. Along the way, Sergeant Major lost, and he also gained. He found Dr. Zhan, whose goal was to redirect cancer cells and cause them to fight each other in order to destroy cancer, but one of his associates, Dr. Phoin, had other plans. Sergeant Major soon realized the fight was coming to the land he swore to protect, and they were behind on the chase. Sergeant Major had to sacrifice much more than he expected, including his life and the lives of his loved ones.
