Primordia: In Search of the Lost World by Greig Beck

Ben Cartwright, former soldier, home to mourn the loss of his father stumbles upon cryptic letters from the past between the author, Arthur Conan Doyle and his great, great grandfather who vanished while exploring the Amazon jungle in 1908.

Amazingly, these letters lead Ben to believe that his ancestor’s expedition was the basis for Doyle’s fantastical tale of a lost world inhabited by long extinct creatures. As Ben digs some more he finds clues to the whereabouts of a lost notebook that might contain a map to a place that is home to creatures that would rewrite everything known about history, biology and evolution.

But other parties now know about the notebook, and will do anything to obtain it. For Ben and his friends, it becomes a race against time and against ruthless rivals.

In the remotest corners of Venezuela, along winding river trails known only to lost tribes, and through near impenetrable jungle, Ben and his novice team find a forbidden place more terrifying and dangerous than anything they could ever have imagined.

The Key: The True Reign Series, Book 1 by Jennifer Anne Davis

Seventeen-year-old Rema lives in a brutal kingdom where travel between regions is forbidden, people are starving, and looking at someone the wrong way can mean death. Nineteen-year-old Darmik is the king’s son and Commander of the King’s Army. He spends his days roaming the island, doing his father’s bidding and trying to maintain control over the people.

When a chance encounter throws Rema and Darmik together, they share an instantaneous connection, but any sort of relationship between them is strictly forbidden. Darmik’s brother, the Crown Prince, notices Darmik’s interest in Rema and, in a calculated, political move, blackmails her. Faced with an impossible choice, Rema is forced to sacrifice her heart in order to save her family.

As Rema is taken to the palace with the Crown Prince, Darmik confronts the growing rumor that a legitimate blood heir to the throne exists and is trying to overthrow Darmik’s family. In Darmik’s quest to hunt down and kill the threat, he discovers that nothing is as it seems. Locked in the king’s castle, Rema finds herself a key player in a massive power struggle. When Darmik shows up, she’s not sure if she can trust him. The line between friends, enemies, and loyalty becomes blurred. As truths are unlocked, Rema understands that she just might be the key to finding the rightful heir and restoring peace to the kingdom . . . if she can manage to stay alive long enough.

Show and Tell by Glenna Sloan

In Show and Tell, Glenna Sloan speaks to both lay readers and educational professionals in a series of stories that cover all aspects of education: something of its history and the philosophy that should inform its practice and much on its practice, both exemplary and deplorable, with examples from elementary school to college. Whether they read the crisp, delicious vignettes in bits and snatches or devour them all at once, all readers are sure to either nod or shake their heads as they recall their own learning experiences. As the author writes in the Introduction, “By examining what is good schooling and what is not, perhaps we will be less likely to resign ourselves to accepting anything less than the best.”

Precious Galaxy Boxed Set (Books 1-4)by Sarah Noffke

A new evil lurks in the darkness

After an explosion, the crew of a battlecruiser mysteriously disappears.

​This digital box set contains four exciting, action-packed books.

Corruption

After an explosion, the crew of a battlecruiser mysteriously disappears.

Bailey and Lewis, complete strangers, find themselves suddenly onboard the damaged ship. Lewis hasn’t worked a case in years, not since the final one broke his spirit and his bank account. The last thing Bailey remembers is preparing to take down a fugitive on Onyx Station.

Mysteries are harder to solve when there’s no evidence left behind.

Bailey and Lewis don’t know how they got onboard Ricky Bobby or why. However, they quickly learn that whatever was responsible for the explosion and disappearance of the crew is still on the ship.

Monsters are real and what this one can do changes everything.

The new team bands together to discover what happened and how to fight the monster lurking in the bottom of the battlecruiser.

Investigation

A new evil lurks in the darkness.
The missing crew of Ricky Bobby are being held in the Precious Galaxy.

The rescue team must quickly orient themselves with this new territory, which isn’t governed by Federation law. The neighboring natives are on the defense, having recently been attacked by a strange, black monster.

More startling, the population of an entire planet has been wiped out. Once again, no trace left behind.

Bailey and Lewis know where the databases are located that hold the crew. However, Solomon Vance isn’t making this easy.

An important factor is missing. Without it, the rescue efforts are futile.

When Monstre and Starboards Corp learn that the new team is after them, it’s a race to rescue the crew before the game completely changes. Solomon Vance has power, technology and a monster that does his bidding.

Determination

Bailey and Lewis are more determined than ever to find Ricky Bobby’s missing crew.

Monstre Corp knows they are on the hunt, and Solomon Vance isn’t letting them get close.

The monster is still out there, a threat they can’t stop.

Jack decides the only way to win is to fake their own deaths.

If Vance believes they’re dead, he’ll let down his guard.

An epic battle ensues when the crew returns to Starboards Corp with two missions: free the children and take down the evil corporation. Timing is everything. And not getting blown up is absolutely key.

Obliteration

The crew is relieved by Dejoure’s perplexing ability to soothe the monster, but that won’t keep them safe for long.

Precious Galaxy Coffee Company is under constant attack.

Someone wants to take out the biggest giant in the galaxy.

The team goes after the other databases only to learn something that changes everything.

Vance is always one step ahead of them.

Not all hope is lost. Hatch brings back a key crew member; someone who can help them defeat Monstre Corp.

The last act of this heart-pounding series delivers a ton of action as Bailey and Lewis rush to save the crew before it’s too late. Everyone’s freedom is at stake. Vance would rather go down in a blaze, taking everything with him, then be defeated.

Experience this exciting mystery sci-fi saga and the latest addition to the expanded Kurtherian Gambit Universe. If you’re a fan of Dark Matter, Altered Carbon, or Star Wars, you’ll love this riveting new space opera.

Luck of the Irish: A St. Patty’s Day Romance by Lexy Parker

My brother says women aren’t worth the effort.

He’s completely wrong. All I want in my life is a good woman and a family.

I’m not like other guys, and I’m damn proud of it.

Scarlet O’Hanley isn’t like any other women I’ve met. Oh, she’s beautiful and classy like lots of girls.

But she owns a bar. And this beauty is tough, witty, and keeps the men around her on their toes.

She’s worth far more than a big pot of gold.

And she’s not interested in love. Not with me. Not with anyone.

Lucky for me, I’m willing to show this girl what it means to be loved.

She can put up a fight all she wants. This woman is mine.
