About the Book
For untold ages, the Granite Hulks at Tilk Duraow have been the impregnable center of the High One’s slaving system. Overpowering. Impenetrable. Final. The point from which there is no return. But now, fifteen-year-old Helga’s revolution—one she hardly expected to begin—is way bigger than she ever dreamed. Tilk Duraow itself is in danger. Unexpectedly finding common cause with a troupe of oddball characters, Helga and old comrades are reunited in a chain of events that portends the Overending. Now even the High One himself is no longer safe. The Overending opens a crack…

What would you do if someone you loved disappeared? What would you do if you were told they’d never existed? This most awful of nightmares comes true for Eva when her closest friend, Annie, vanishes. Even Annie’s parents deny her existence.

The uncertainty of the early months of 1939 has been eclipsed. Eva’s comfortable, normal small town life becomes despairing and desperate, until a friendly hand reaches out to her. The elderly and eccentric Lola shows no surprise at Eva’s tale. Neither does Gabe; young, handsome and distant. They have answers that lead to more questions, and information that leads to confusion. The pair guide Eva through a new and frightening world towards her beloved Annie. Eva is sure that her search has absorbed every part of her, until she realises how close she’s becoming to the mysterious but tender Gabe.

As Eva learns more about the hidden world now exposed to her, the depth of which seems infinite, she finds that people can be lost and all memory of them forsaken. Gabe and Lola are lost, just like Annie; but unlike Annie, no-one is looking for them to guide them home. Eva, now attached to Lola and deeply tied to Gabe, struggles to believe that nothing can be done to help them.

Eva’s search is littered with many things – doubt, discovery, love, belonging and a myriad of scary jigsaw pieces; lost friends, the giving of gifts, a library of books, a troubled conscience and a brilliant pianist. Can Eva piece it all together to see the picture or has she missed something? Does Eva find Annie? Will Gabe reveal his story and are his and Lola’s other lost friends a help or a hindrance?

And is there something crucially important that not one of them is telling Eva?

Margaret O’Brien’s life is about to change.

Growing up in the small town of Grace’s Cove, Margaret never knew that she was different. She didn’t understand why people were unnerved by her ability to see what others could not. When her mother explains that she is special, gifted, her world shifts forever. Desperately wanting to be normal, Margaret is determined to seal that part of herself away. It seems as though she might succeed – until Sean Burke steps into her life.

Sean is an apprentice on a fishing boat and is pursuing his dream of running his own fishing business. Tales of the fish pulled from the rumored-to-be-enchanted cove are legendary across Ireland, and Sean is determined to learn its secrets. What he doesn’t expect is to be blindsided by his love for Margaret.

Helpless to stop loving Sean, but unable to confess to her shameful secret, Margaret must face the truth about herself – or run away from it forever.

In the tradition of It’s a Wonderful Life and Pirates of the Caribbean, S DeGiorgio casts the Pacific Ocean as a nautical canvas for a Christmas tale that teaches us you don’t have to be a bad man to be a great pirate.

Yo Ho Ho and a Very Merry Christmas! promises to become a holiday classic readers of all ages will enjoy for years to come.

Captain Blackjack Rob’s great shame is that he has never fired his guns on the king’s fleet, nor plundered the holds of a captured merchant ship, despite the exploits of his father and grandfather—two of the most notorious pirates ever to have sailed the seven seas.

Left to rot in the king’s jail, and nearly forgotten, Captain Rob and his crew seize an offer to deliver Yuletide cargo to the Town of Dryden by Christmas Eve, in exchange for their release. But to reach their destination in time, earn the king’s pardon, and ensure their freedom, they will have to chart a course straight through pirate-infested waters—a fool’s errand while sailing under the king’s colors.

2014 Amazon top 100 paid best seller in first contact science fiction.

The greatest cover up of all time . . . was orchestrated five thousand years ago . . . this is the continuation of that story.

ORION CONNECTION is the first installment in the Legends trilogy, in which fiction novelist, S DeGiorgio, offers an eerily plausible connection between Mars and the rise of modern civilization.

It’s 2050, Earth’s resources are nearly gone, armies guard what precious little remains, and as mankind prepares to set foot on Mars, leaders of an ancient society are forced out of the shadows to protect secrets they’ve guarded for millennia.

NASA veteran and living legend, Commander Robert Lawson, is having the worst day of his life. On the eve of Earth’s first manned mission to Mars, unknown adversaries have murdered four members of his crew, including his pilot and hand picked successor, Mitch Reynolds.

Rumor and espionage threaten to tear the crew apart at a time when America can’t afford to fail. Continuing our way of life requires the world to witness the stars and stripes being plunged into Martian soil, but as the reserve team is pressed into service, fears grow within government circles that co-conspirators may be on board.

Standing down is not an option. Control of Mars’ mineral rights will reestablish America’s position as the leader of the free world—except we’re not the only country in the race for the red planet.

No one’s ever gone farther than the moon. Members of the crew only have each other, elite training, and raw instincts to rely on. Not everyone believes they’ll make it home, and some consider them expendable—acceptable losses to advance the cause—but Lawson has no intention of letting that happen.

Inspired by the real, but highly controversial “anomalies” detected in the Cydonia region of Mars by Viking I in 1976, and the unexplainable technological marvels that predate the rise of Egypt on Earth by thousands of years—this novel is rocket fuel for people seeking answers to the question, “Are we alone?”
