Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “wonderful” novel of suspense about a woman journeying into her own dark past to protect her child’s future (Michael Connelly). When her ex-lover comes to see her, Miranda “Munch” Mancini has mixed feelings. On one hand, he’s a reminder of all she has left behind in order to stay sober and rebuild her life. On the other hand, he’s Sleaze Garillo, the father of the baby girl she is now raising. When Sleaze disappears, Munch can’t help but get involved. The police don’t see foul play, but Munch is the one with the knowledge—and the friends—to get to the truth behind Sleaze’s suspicious disappearance. To find him, she’ll have to take an unwelcome trip down memory lane to visit people from her shady past. There’s more at stake here than tracking down Sleaze: Munch must also protect the life she’s built for herself, and for the little girl she calls her own. This “fast-paced” mystery (Los Angeles Times) is a “real cause for celebration . . . Seranella keeps the story moving at a brisk pace, with surprises around every corner” (Chicago Tribune). “A splendid read.” —T. Jefferson Parker

Book excerpt: Winner of the Alex Award “Mike Muñoz Is a Holden Caulfield for a New Millennium--a '10th-generation peasant with a Mexican last name, raised by a single mom on an Indian reservation' . . . Evison, as in his previous four novels, has a light touch and humorously guides the reader, this time through the minefield that is working-class America.” --The New York Times Book Review For Mike Muñoz, life has been a whole lot of waiting for something to happen. Not too many years out of high school and still doing menial work--and just fired from his latest gig as a lawn boy on a landscaping crew--he’s smart enough to know that he’s got to be the one to shake things up if he’s ever going to change his life. But how? He’s not qualified for much of anything. He has no particular talents, although he is stellar at handling a lawn mower and wielding clipping shears. But now that career seems to be behind him. So what’s next for Mike Muñoz? In this funny, biting, touching, and ultimately inspiring novel, bestselling author Jonathan Evison takes the reader into the heart and mind of a young man determined to achieve the American dream of happiness and prosperity--who just so happens to find himself along the way.

Book excerpt: Isn’t That Clever provides a new account of the nature of humor – the cleverness account – according to which humor is intentional conspicuous acts of playful cleverness. By defining humor in this way, answers can be found to longstanding questions about humor ethics (Are there jokes that are wrong to tell? Are there jokes that can only be told by certain people?) and humor aesthetics (What makes for a good joke? Is humor subjective?). In addition to humor in general, Isn’t That Clever asks questions about comedy as an art form such as whether there are limits to what can be said in dealing with a heckler and how do we determine whether one comedian has stolen jokes from another.

Book excerpt: In the second book of Penn Fawn’s Underworld series, a spin off from his Necropolis novels that can be read as a standalone, mankind is featured from the perspective of gargoyles plus the goatlord, a half-man, half-goat, mythological creature. In the afterlife men are not the apex predator. They are not at the top of the food chain, nor do they have dominion over all other animals in this strange, ancient, and unforgiving place, they could not have imagined existed. They are the despised and hunted, what the winged mythical beasts, and those who have hooves as opposed to feet, call the scourge. As such, Hespatia, the witch protagonist, and her peers, find themselves facing a lack of compassion or mercy from creatures who believe the only good man is a dead one, when what the men desire above all else in the afterlife, is to find any place where they can safely live.

Book excerpt: Plunged unwittingly into the events predicted by the ancient Mayan civilization, the thirteenth and final cycle in the aging of the Earth, preceded by great cataclysmic changes, David must solve the riddle of mankind's demise before the sands of time run out on December 21, 2012. He is incredulous in learning that it was pre-ordained thousands of years ago, that he match wits against his ancestor's enemies, the son of Og, the nephalim, wizards and witches. Aristopos, the ancient necromancer, is rivaled only by his arch enemy The Wizard of Irem, whose task it is to prevent the sealing of the netherworld.

Book excerpt: From the national bestselling author of the Kris Longknife series comes an all-new Jump Universe novel. Retired Colonel Ray Longknife and Marine Captain Terrence “Trouble” Tordon come to Savannah via different routes, but what they find is the same. One bully strongman is intent on keeping power no matter what the new rules are for peace. He’s got the population cowered by thugs, and tanks at the ready. He expects to win the coming elections handily. He doesn’t expect trouble. Or, in this case, Mrs. Trouble—aka Ruth Tordon—a Marine wife on a mission to find the drug lords that almost killed her and her husband and put them out of business—and she’s not about to be stopped by some barely trained roughnecks. Abandoned by their strongman and desperate in defeat, the heavy armor get ready to roll into town over anybody in their way. But Ray Longknife, Trouble and Ruth are standing in their way…and nothing is going to flatten them.
