Customer review: "I love that the story is in Jackson Hole, Wyoming."

City girl. It was written all over her like a sign warning him to keep off. Sure, Slade McPherson would train her horse…With his ranch one bad day away from foreclosure, he can't afford to turn away a paying customer. But no way is this cowboy getting involved with a woman like Jordana Lawton—no matter how pretty she looks in a saddle.

Yet everything can change in an instant. A terrifying run-in with an angry bull tilts Slade's world off its axis, leaving him wounded and unable to compete in a race that could change his future, for good. With Jordana by his side, he just might stand a chance. But what happens when this old-school cowboy finds himself falling for a modern city girl?

Amazon.com review: "This short story collection is a Science Fiction classic."

This collection of Clarke’s work was originally published in 1953, when it was selected as one of the best science fiction books of the year by Boucher and McComas. It contains many short stories that would later become classics, including “The Sentinel”—the basis for the later classic 2001: A Space Odyssey.

These stories present a brilliant showcase of Clarke’s many-layered approach to the moral dilemmas of scientific advancement—from the thrilling and brutal “Breaking Strain” to the more poetic and thoughtful “Second Dawn.” This collection represents a tour-de-force of science fiction storytelling sure to delight fans of Clarke’s work and the SF genre.

Customer review: "If you're a fan of time travel stories, then Time Riders is a must read!"

Maddy should have died in a plane crash. Liam should have died at sea when the Titanic sank. Sal should have died in a tragic fire. But a mysterious man whisked them away to safety.

Maddy, Liam, and Sal quickly learn that time travel is no longer just a hope for the future; it is a dangerous reality. And they weren't just rescued from their terrible fates. . . they were recruited for the agency of TimeRiders created to protect the world from those seeking to alter the course of history for personal gain. By reliving the highly documented events in New York City on 9/11, they can closely monitor history for any deviations-large or small. When just such a change is detected, they are alerted that a threat is at hand unleashing the evil of the Nazis to wreak havoc with Earth's present and future. Can Maddy, Liam, and Sal fulfill their destinies as keepers of time to save the world from utter destruction?

An exhilarating adventure that shifts readers back in time to Nazi Germany and then forward into an ever-changing present.

Look out for the other books in this series: Day of the Predator and The Doomsday Code!

Product Description

If the dead of Claysville are not cared for properly, they will return. Keeping them sleeping has long been the duty of Rebekkah Barrow's grandmother Maylene. But now Maylene has herself died and Rebekkah must return home to take up the duties of the Graveminder -- if she's up to the task. Great gothic storytelling from Melissa Marr (Wicked Lovely, The Carnival of Souls.)
