More freebies for you

This week we have more books on sale for you and free stories. The genre? But science-fiction and fantasy, of course.


The first offer of the week is this novella by Austin Baillio.

They are evil incarnate. Ruthless, remorseless, and sadistic. They play with human lives like sport. Those who dwell in the Realm of Mist and Shadow seek to infect your soul with the Darkness. If you resist, they will devour your body. There is no escaping the Shadow-Stalkers.


Bryggen is dragged bound and broken into the land of the Shadow-Stalkers where he is thrown into a deadly game of survival.


He and eleven others, including his girlfriend Mya, must decide what they are willing to sacrifice to survive. Some resist the darkness and are destroyed. Some give in to the darkness and lose their souls.


As Bryggen and Mya make decisions that lead them to the end of the game, they meet the orchestrator of the games and the Master of their fate. As a final trial, the Master pits Bryggen and Mya against each other for the chance to escape the Realm of Mist and Shadows.

And you don't want to miss this breathtaking story among the stars by Mike Waller.


When an unidentified vessel appears beyond Jupiter, both Earth and Mars begin a frantic race to claim it, aware that whichever planet succeeds might in so doing achieve advantage over the other. But who should they send?


Joe would never consider himself the 'right' person. Drifting around the Asteroid Belt in a converted freighter, working as a surveyor and miner with a crew of oddballs and misfits who, like himself, are running away each from his or her own private demons, he cannot think of a single good reason why he should be the chosen one. But how could he not go?


When the surveyor Butterball rendezvous with the Visitor, Joe discovers a ship so immense, exploring its thousands of square kilometers of decks is unrealistic. As the alien vessel responds to his presence in wondrous yet frightening ways, not a trace of its inhabitants can be found. Virtually everything Joe and his team sees defies explanation, and little is what it appears to be. Joe soon realizes he and his crew are expendable and cannot take anything or anyone at face value, including the alien ship's owners. And all the time, the crew is being watched and studied. Then humanity learns that this wondrous spacecraft is not their real problem.


Never would Joe have imagined it would fall to him to make the decision that would alter the destiny of two worlds, launching humankind onto the path to a glorious future, or to extinction.

And now the last freebie for this week, a novel by Moud Adel.



To become a savior, one must first train

It’s my sixteenth birthday and everyone is asking what I want for my future. I can’t answer this question, not when I’m the guardian of Earth.

I have been training for ten years with my shape shifting mentor in secret, learning how to defend my planet against alien attacks, but I never met one before. Tonight, however, everything is about to change.

My mentor detected an alien intruder and it’s up to me to interfere before the invader brings his entire species to my home, but I am not sure I can do it. Even though I was born with a special gene that enhances my power, I don’t know if my heart is ready for me to take a life.

But the party doesn't end here. If you want to read an engaging story about vigilantes of the future, this book by Kate Sheeran Swed is for you.



Hollywood days. Vigilante nights.

To the world, she's a star.

To the league of heroes who raised her? She's a liability.


Mary's got a penchant for gadgets, a resume packed with criminal-busting credentials, and a reckless streak that tends to land her in trouble. So when a potential recruit blazes a trail through a local bar—literally—Mary blows off league protocol and whisks the girl off to HQ. But Mary's heat-of-the-moment rebellion endangers her family when the recruit's father shows up; more blowtorch than human, he's got a vendetta against the league and powerful investors to back him up.


Instead of letting Mary help, the league banishes her to a stint of camera-courting under the guise of her celebrity secret identity. But Mary's got no intention of benching her grapple hooks; she chases her own leads through a web of secrets that threatens to unravel her history with the league.


As conspiracies pick her family apart, Mary must question everything she's been raised to believe—and what it really means to be a hero—before her fiery enemy sets his sights on the rest of the world.
