Book excerpt: An Ancient Secret - A Deep Mystery - A Parallel Dimension - And One Guy—looking for his sock. Nobody expected Steven Ph. Bearlyman to amount to anything. He had no talent, no job, and no prospects. But he had a sock. An old sock. And a very special sock this turned out to be, coveted by a pandimensional race of people—once the rulers of Earth, but now departed. We’re talking about the Romans, here. Julius Caesar and his peeps. Beside a bunch of buildings, the Romans left behind an obscure artifact that has the power to unlock the mystery of life, and grant universal dominance to its possessor: An old sock, now owned by Steven Ph. Bearlyman. The Romans had it, they lost it, and now they want it back. Crawling into a dryer to look for his missing sock, Steven accidentally discovers a gateway to a parallel dimension, and is immediately thrust into the middle of a multidimensional plot that has been thousands of years in the making. Now the fate of the world—all the worlds—rests in the hands of this lanky loner from Los Angeles. Only he can save us. But first, he must find his missing sock. The Sock, or Steven Ph. Bearlyman's Adventures in Parallel Dimensions is an epic saga, spanning several books, about the world’s greatest mystery: Why do only socks disappear from dryers? Why not boxers, bras, or bib overalls? If you like action, mystery, and just plain laughing out loud, you’ll love this hilarious series that will forever change the way you look at your wardrobe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two ten-year-old Irish American girls take the reader on a journey beginning in 1955, when they are challenged by Salvie Baldwin to learn about the historic 1954 US Supreme Court decision declaring segregated schools unconstitutional. After a tragic fall on a track field, sixteen-year-old Erin OHara is told that she must make a life-or-death decision to have surgery to save her left leg and her life. Desperately ill and weary from the fight to hang on, she thinks of what she and her best friend, Lily McCarey, have learned about the courage of the Negroes in fighting for fair independence and acceptance, as they are in the middle of Americas civil rights movement. They have both been clinging to that shifty rope bridge called faith. It is now 1963 and the worst is yet to come. Joy OHara, Erins mother, keeps her ambitious husband and three daughters within her sight, delivering unconditional love. In her wisdom, she hires Mayleen Watson, a good woman, to look after her children and her home. But her true intent is to help her racially prejudiced husband move to a place of honest acceptance, while keeping her children colorblind. Mayleen, who swore she would never work for a white family, takes them into her heart and, when necessary, delivers tough love through sass and laughter. While representing Colorado in the 1963 Americas Junior Miss Pageant, Erins beliefs are sorely tested but reinforced by divine miracles. As life spins ahead, it is discovered that deeply held faith in God is the bedrock of everyones salvation. Crashing into the Third Heaven is a testament to the power of faith, courage, and forgiveness. First-time novelist Janis Baker lays down a foundation of strong, believable characters who exemplify the capabilities of women while under fire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s Secret Histories fantasy adventure series featuring supernatural super-agent Eddie Drood continues. Eddie Drood here...well, not quite. Being a member of a secret-yet-legendary family of evil-battlers who have been shielding people from the darkest entities on Earth for ages can take its toll. So lately, I’ve been relaxing. Regrouping. Looking at things from a place of peace and quiet. After all, being dead does have its perks. Lucky for me my lovely witch Molly Metcalfe is able to pull me back to the mortal plane just in time for another disaster to befall the Drood clan and the world in general. It appears there is a Satanist conspiracy in the making. And I don’t mean your typical wear-black-eyeliner, mope-around-the-high-school, rebelling-against-daddy devil devotees. These Satanists are incredibly for real, extremely devoted to their dark lord, and dead serious about breaking down the gates of Hell to unleash...well, Hell. And the key to this is something called the “Great Sacrifice,” a horrific occurrence the likes of which humanity has never conceived—and will never survive. That is, unless an unlikely guardian angel leaps into the fray. Dammit...where did I put my wings and halo...?
