Matt Williams, an aspiring rock star, is in a profoundly steep downward spiral. He's quickly losing control of his life to sex, drugs, and alcohol-and things are about to get much worse. Matt wakes up naked one morning in a stranger's bed. This wouldn't be so unusual, except Matt has almost no memory of the man or the night before. Disappointed in Matt's poor choices, his friends and bandmates wash their hands of him. The mysterious one-night stand comes back to haunt Matt: he finds himself being stalked, and the threatening behavior keeps getting worse. With no friends to turn to, and with drugs and alcohol always beckoning, Matt begins to feel closer to death than he has any other time in his life. Part thriller, part romance, You Will Be Mine is a dark story about addiction and obsession. As Matt wrestles with his internal demons, an external demon comes riding into his life and threatens to take everything. Can Matt reclaim his life from this insidious stalker? And even if Matt escapes this overzealous fan, can he survive his own poor choices?
Imagine there's no electricity: no food, no water, no heat. Medical devices fail. Communications devices die. Looting and chaos break out. Would you die in a week? A month? Two months? Now imagine there's no electricity for nearly 2 years. No phone, no money, no A/C or heat, right? Sure, but you also lose life-sustaining medical devices, water (towers can't refill without it), food (no money to exchange for it and no energy to grow it) causing a total breakdown of government, social services, and the military (how do you communicate without electricity?). Massive chaos, looting, death. That's the future facing all of us if Jacob, John Boyd, and the rest of the FBI Counter-Terrorism Task Force can't stop them in time. But, who's behind the plot? And, how can you stop someone if you don't know who's behind the plot?

KEENAN It's been four years since I ran away-from home, my brother, and my maybe father. I created a life free of expectations while pretending I wasn't being hunted by all of the above. I managed to stay under the radar all this time... or so I thought. When big brother shows up and saves my ass, I'm forced to face everything I left behind, including her. SHELDON It's been four years since I became another statistic. I made a lot of mistakes when it came to Keenan Masters. The first was loving him at all. He took something from me the night he left, and when I told him I still loved him, he told me he'd always hate me. After that, I learned how to be okay... until he came back. Gone was the boy who always knew how to make me laugh, and in his place was a cold, arrogant monster.Fear Us is a continuation of the events from book one and two. It's recommended you read the series in order.

Los fantasmas debían ser ignorados, y el hecho de que su hija había desaparecido era una de esas cosas que no debían ser mencionadas. Esos habían sido siempre dos de los pilares fundamentales de la vida del Sr. Jones, pero cuando un fantasma que no era como los otros se cruzó en su camino a este hombre perfectamente ordinario de repente se le hizo imposible el desviar la mirada. El problema era que, en su intento desesperado por buscar una respuesta a algunas de esas preguntas que nunca se había atrevido a formular, se encontró frente a frente con una lista creciente de contradicciones, y con la creciente evidencia del hecho de que lo que estaba haciendo era tirar de un hilo que amenazaba con desbaratar el tejido de su propia vida. Sí, que los fantasmas estaban ahí era innegable, así como también era innegable el hecho de que su hija había desaparecido... pero a pesar de todos sus esfuerzos el Sr. Jones no alcanzaba a comprender el por qué.
With the murder of Julius Caesar on the Ides of March 44 BC, a new political constellation seized control of the city of Rome. Known as the Second Triumvirate, this alliance between Gaius Octavius (Augustus), Marc Antony, and Marcus Aemilius Lepidus formed in the year 43 BC and saw the three most powerful men in Rome overcome their own personal differences to bring about a new stability to their tumultuous city. It was a period of extreme violence, as the Second Triumvirate first needed to contend with the rebellious conspirators who had first assassinated Caesar and then broken away from the Roman state. Gradually emerging victorious over the assassins, the Second Triumvirate attempted to consolidate their hold on the Roman Empire by partitioning its vast expanse amongst themselves. However, as Rome always proves true only one man can master the greatest empire of the Mediterranean. In what followed, political intrigue pitted each member of the Triumvirate against one another, as all attempted to seize absolute power. This contest between the greatest Roman politicians mobilized vast armies from across the world, and featured battles that stretched from the sands of the Persian heartlands to the Spanish steppes. From the ashes of the Second Triumvirate emerged a new form of government that we now know as the Empire. It was a form of governance that reflected the violence from which it was born. Cruel and absolute in their use of power, the Roman emperors could now dictate the course of the nation without having to bow to the desires of the people of Rome. Under their direction, Rome would be resplendent and glorious once more.

Ian Harebungler, our hapless hero, just can't catch a break. First, the deli ran out of his favorite cucumber sandwiches. Then he left the gas on at home. But the lowlight was being abducted from his front yard by a particularly ill-mannered alien, one who apparently doesn't believe in anesthetic, no less. Fortunately, Ian is saved by an unlikely ally: the Twiller, whose bravery is somewhat overshadowed by its uncanny resemblance to a floating yellow marshmallow with big eyes. The Twiller follows the adventures of Ian and his newfound companion as they are whisked around the Universe, and Ian learns how difficult it can be to find his way home to a backwater planet called "Earth." Along the way, Ian must survive the traffic of El Leigh, the enthusiastic protestors of Bez Erkeley, and rampaging politicians in the city of WMD. Even worse, he must contend with exorbitant prices in the city of York, endure the heat and crazy drivers in Fleur Ida, and struggle to escape the small planet of "Huh? Why E?" before he contracts island fever. Astute readers might pick up on subtle correlations to real places here on Earth, but my lawyers have reminded me to state that such resemblances are purely coincidental. As it starts to dawn on Ian that the bizarre planets he visits suffer from many of the same problems, comical situations, and inane rules all too familiar to him, he stumbles upon an important secret that gives his quest to return home added urgency. Can Ian make it home? Will he arrive in time to prevent a terrible catastrophe? And can he find a flight without a Saturday night stopover? The answer lies with the Twiller...
