In the middle of America, on Route 44, Amy Lewis has a plan to get to her grandma’s house in time for dinner. But she’s being pursued by a very bad wolf.

Galaxies away Loki, so-called Norse God of Mischief and Chaos, is waking up in a prison cell, strangely without a hangover. He has no idea what he’s done wrong–this time anyway. But he does know Thor is hiding something, Odin is up to something wicked, and there seems to be something he’s forgotten …

In this tale that is equal parts “Another Fine Myth,” “American Gods,” and “Once Upon a Time,” a very nice midwestern girl and a jaded, very mischievous Loki must join forces to outwit Norse gods, elves, magic sniffing cats, and nosy neighbors. If Loki can remember exactly what he’s forgotten and Amy can convince him not to be too distracted by Earthly gadgets, her breasts, or three day benders, they just might pull it off.

This first installment of “I Bring the Fire” is for anyone who suspects chaos, tricksters, and mischief makers might have their own redeeming qualities, and anyone who just wants an epic fantasy romp through contemporary Earth, ancient Asgard, and beyond!

“I am supposed to be the hero in Norse Mythology!”
– Thor, Norse God of Thunder

About the Author
C. Gockel got her start writing fanfiction, and she is not ashamed! Much. She received emails, messages and reviews from her fans telling her she should ‘do this professionally’. She didn’t; because she is a coward and life as a digital designer, copywriter and coder is more dependable. But in the end, her husband’s nagging wore her down: “You could be the next ’50 Shades of Gray’ and I could retire!” Unfortunately, the author isn’t much for writing smut. She is sad about this; she’d love for her husband to be able to retire and just work for her so she could nag him. At the moment, Ms. Gockel is working on the next installment of “I Bring the Fire”. Ms. Gockel loves to hear from readers.

David Jackson leaves a successful law practice in the big city to return to the hometown he fled long ago. At its center stands Old Suzie’s house, a grand home once the elegant jewel of a bygone era. Now abandoned, the house stands decaying, simmering in the town’s tortured past. David thought he’d buried his childhood nightmares along with his father in the town cemetery under six feet of dirt and thirty years of grief, but they’re not finished with him just yet. His wife and daughter find themselves in real danger from the unquiet phantoms of David’s past. David Jackson’s childhood might just hold the key to what haunts Old Suzie’s house—and his family’s salvation.

About the Author:
Currently residing in College Station, Texas, Chris Pourteau has made a living at one time or another as a teacher, a lab technician helping to recover one of Christopher Columbus’s ships, and a technical writer and editor. Shadows Burned In is his first foray into the world of long fiction.

Pourteau cites writers both modern and classical as influences, notable among them Bernard Cornwell, Stephen King, George R.R. Martin, Toni Morrison, Edgar Allan Poe, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Mark Twain. Other major influences include fellow Texan and singer-songwriter James McMurtry, Groucho Marx, and a little-known comedy troupe from England you’ve probably never heard of named Monty Python. (Python is always happy to have someone shill their name as long as they don’t have to pay for it and might get a chance to sell you something, so there you go, guys. Regards from Texas.)

As far as reading interests go, Pourteau prefers fantasy, science fiction, and historical fiction, which you could probably guess from his list of influences. Occasionally, he likes taking random chances on new writers–new to him, anyway–and has recently become enamored of the works of Roberto Calas, Nick Cole, Suzanne Collins, Tess Gerritsen, Manel Loureiro, and John Scalzi among others. He’s also a die-hard Star Trek fan and prefers gritty dramas like Breaking Bad, Hell on Wheels, Homeland, and The Killing when he flips on the tube.

About the Author
Trip Stevens has been visiting the Hawaiian islands since the 1990’s. To all his friends and family, he is the source of information to plan Hawaiian vacations. At first he would make a few suggestions and loan out his personal library of guide books to a specific island. A few weeks later the books would be returned unread. Frustrated and intimidated by the sheer number of pages in these books filled with hotel and restaurant reviews, the weary vacation planner would ask, “Can you just tell me where to go and what I should see while I’m there?” In less than an hour, Trip and his hopeful guest would have the outline for a pretty awesome trip. Trip began creating “quick island guides” that we would hand out when folks would come ask him for Hawaii travel advice. These guides grew and became the foundation for the “Vacation Briefs” series.

Three Worlds Collide, Unlikely Heroes Arise.

Over a remote northern forest, a small plane carrying five teenage friends flies into a freak storm. Struck by lightning, the aircraft crashes and the passengers find themselves cast into a life-changing adventure.

In a hidden valley, a mysterious people gaze at the stormy sky as a glowing object with fiery wings disappears behind a mountain ridge. The astonishing sight reignites an ancient prophecy foretelling the arrival of five chosen ones destined to become bearers of light against a dark storm gathering on humanity’s horizon.

In a distant city, a secretive organization led by a shadowy figure initiates a sequence of cataclysmic events designed to wreak havoc across the planet, beginning with a remote mining site in northern Canada.

As the three worlds collide, unlikely heroes arise. Armed with powers entrusted to them by the ancient prophecy and the resilience of their life-long bond, the five teens take a stand against a malevolent foe.

Hijacked-amazon_500This book is bargain priced from 11/09/2014 until 11/15/2014 in US, UK. Price is: $0.99 / £0.99 whole time

Targeted Age Group: 15+

In the 23rd century, the colonies on the inner planets of the solar system boast a diverse and colorful plethora of characters, each with their own tales to impart. These are the Chronicles of the 23rd Century.

For Solar Rangers Walker and Jenner, a simple prisoner transport duty aboard the inter-solar liner Stellar Fortune develops into a dangerous situation, when the ship is hijacked by a resistance group calling themselves the ‘Earth Liberation Front’.

As events unfold with deadly consequences, a deception is uncovered which could change the economic landscape of the established colonies forever.

Author Bio:
Boasting an extremely healthy interest in science fiction and horror tales from his early years of school, Paul quite often scribbled short tales and stories, or snippets of adventures which fired through his imagination.

In later years that same imagination created whole worlds for groups of role players to fight their way through, trying to foil devious plots and avoid dastardly traps to save the day – or most often just save their own characters’ skins!

Now after many years of Dr Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly / Serenity, and many other sci-fi genres being absorbed cerebrally and mentally digested whilst enduring the rigours of the ‘real world’, he has returned to the therapeutic fantasy worlds which exist within his mind in order to put some of these adventures down on paper.
