Inspired by a true story, "Pilate's Cross" follows John Pilate, his sardonic imaginary pal Simon and lovely new friend Kate as they investigate the cold case mystery of a murdered college president.

    Cute story--a fun one to read to the kids on Halloween.

    Jason McIntyre possesses the most rare of gifts: the guts to open himself up completely combined with the ability to get it on the page. "On the Gathering Storm" fearlessly engages the reader with lush depictions of acts of cruelty, daily life and yes, horror. Perhaps most interesting, however, are the vulnerabilities of the characters--fully on view and intertwined with their determination to survive the trap in which they've been ensnared. I won't make the easy comparison to other great thriller writers--McIntyre's his own writer, one I'm delighted to read.
  • Hall of Mirrors: Volume One on April 17, 2011

    Just when I thought that Mike Bennett's work couldn't possibly be as good as his magnetic audio renditions, here comes the ebook--and it is superb. Bennett is one of the most original, imaginative and downright funny writers you'll ever encounter. His creepily fun--even hammy at turns--audio books and podcasts are a treasure, and this collection of short stories will rock your ereader. "The Grave" is a favorite--you think you can dig it…but you don't. "Hair and Skin" is like a Horrific Hair Club for Men, and "The Haslet Technique" will leave you queasy at the prospect of playing the lotto. Fans of Bennett's ongoing vampire novel "Underwood and Flinch" will find this little slice of Bennett a fascinating side dish best served cold on the page…or ereader as it were.

    In my experience, finding erotica with engaging characters and strong plots is unusual, and it's downright rare to find a collection of erotica with those qualities that is as elegantly written as "Fall Into Winter." These stories feature strong, self-possessed women who know what they want sexually and aren't afraid to get it. Each of the four novellas in this collection take you to the edge of fantasy but not so far out that they lose plausibility; if you like erotica that takes place in the realm of the possible, this book is for you. Sexy, arousing and fun, this elegant, witty collection is an honest, playful exploration of sexuality, seduction and lust. Eden Baylee is exceptional.
