Summary: Kris Starr used to be famous. Rock and roll. Sold-out shows. Literal magic. Empathic talents and screaming fans. But he has a problem or two. He's having a hard time writing new music. It's Midwinter, which means he's surrounded by depressing holiday cheer. And he's in love with Justin, his manager, who has a talent for rescuing almost- or once-famous bands ... and who's hiding secrets of his own. Justin Moore, on the other hand, is very good at keeping those secrets -- he's had to be for years. One secret involves a demonic inheritance that would make him a target of suspicion. Another involves his past. And the third involves Justin's feelings for Kris Starr, rock and roll icon and now his client ... and a powerful empath.

Summary: I wrote this novel in 2014, before ChatGPT and any of the modern Artificial Intelligence, I conjectured that in the year 2172, a digital system would become sentient - conscious! I was way off. It will happen much faster.  I asked myself the question: "What will happen when a computer or similar system can think and learn faster than humans? SkyNet? The Terminator? I didn't think so, but what will happen? This story is narrated by the computer, as it becomes aware of its own consciousness. How will it declare its sentience to its administrators? What will its motives be? What happens when its knowledge is greater than all of human knowledge?  The story follows the future evolution of the Singularity.

Summary:

An unexpected romance. A space-heist gone wrong. A galactic catastrophe in the making.

  At the furthest reaches of the known galaxy, cyber-thief Rowland Hale’s biggest score turns into a fight for his life.  Beaten but not broken, ex-navy captain Toar Grithrawrscion can save that life, but only by risking his own.

Their destiny is in their hands, but only if they keep their hands to themselves. A high-adventure space epic with a touch of charming romance, Allure of Oartheca tells the story of two men from different worlds who must face battles both from without and from deep within – an Allure that whispers promises of rapture and destruction, that dares not be risked, and cannot be refused. If our heroes give up, they fail.  If they give in, they fail too – and the fate of the universe rests in the balance.

Summary: It all went horrifically wrong. V reunited with his AI siblings at a terrible cost—a cost he isn’t willing to pay. He vowed to do whatever it takes to save Meredith—or whatever is left of her—from Smith and Varro Technologies. No matter how long it takes. No matter what he has to do. No matter who he has to kill. Now V, Cass and Orwell are tearing through the galaxy playing a deadly cat-and-mouse game with Mr Smith.

V is losing himself to a virtual world of worship, grief, regret for the host he inadvertently destroyed; Orwell has dangerous designs for itself; and Cass’s pride in her perfection is threatening to unravel her to her very code. Smith and Janus are closing in, and a reckoning is coming to Paradeisos…

Summary: One month after her childhood friend Gilbert appeared on the doorstep of her library seeking help in fleeing from the Blue Crescent Brotherhood, Lenna Faircloth - librarian, self-proclaimed dormouse, and lover of all things alcoholic - finds herself in the unlikeliest of situations: roughing it in the forest with her mother's people, the Freewomen of Laur. With his dying words Gilbert bequeathed to Lenna one of three powerful artifacts, dubiously named the Godjewels, and it had formed a unique psychic bond with her that only the wards of the Freewoman settlement could mask from the other parties interested in acquiring her gem. As for Lenna? She's just interested in taking a bath, having a tall glass of wine, and forgetting the past month even happened. APPRENTICE continues the tale of LIBRARIAN and follows the adventures of a young woman forced to confront and discover what it means to be a hero (albeit a sometimes tipsy one), a friend, and a person with far too much power at their ready disposal.

Summary: The sun dims, shadows grow, and ruination draws near. The Tomb of the Almighty, thought to be the home of a divine presence, was opened, and it has unleashed a ruinous presence back upon the world keen on resuming a conquest interrupted. The shadows have spilled forth, destroying the sky city of Aracoras and wrapping their tendrils around the sky city of Lunaria and trying to subjugate the rest of the lands above the cloud sea. Venser, son of the late High Priest of Aracoras, escaped the fate suffered by the rest of Aracoras, but he found himself in a deep sleep, passing out after seemingly dormant powers awakened to save him and his friends during their escape. As Venser returns to the world of the living, he and his friends, the crew of the Naglfar, race to find the answers they need to stop a dark god from subjugating them all. His journey brings him back to faces old and new, and deeper into the arms of his weapons operator boyfriend, Basch. It's a race to end an impending war before it has a chance to start anew. The past has a way of haunting the future, and Venser's about to learn the consequences of decisions made long before.

Summary: Venser is to be a guest at his own wedding. The eighth son of the High Priest of Aracoras, Venser was betrothed to the Leondra, daughter of Lunaria's paramount leader. At the crux of the arrangement is the Tomb of the Almighty, a landmark in Aracoras that is the resting place of a divine protector, a figure who helped their people escape above the sea of clouds. Venser and Leondra's impending marriage is so that Lunaria and its leaders can access the Tomb of the Almighty, a place forbidden to outsiders, and oversee the opening of the Tomb. While their fathers finalize the plans for their marriage, Venser and Leondra set out to unravel the mysteries of the Tomb of the Almighty, to answer the question of why they now seek to open the Tomb after it has remained sealed for generations. Information on the true nature of the Tomb has become scarce, and neither of them are willing to trust the lack of sources in Lunaria. Both also seek to escape the marriage neither of them wanted, and Venser hopes to escape the cage Aracoras has kept him in. Venser's journey sees him join with the crew of the airship Alamithea, visiting the other grand cities of the sky islands as he tries to escape his past and unravel the mysteries behind the Tomb of the Almighty and the sky islands themselves. With new companions and friends, like the jokester Matthias and the cantankerous Basch, Venser learns of the dark secrets underpinning the whole of their society, as well as the things about himself he never knew. But as they race across the sky, the darkness they don't see swells, and it's set on retaliation...

Summary: Once upon a time, on a rocky island with enchantment under the ocean ... Cadence Bell left the windswept Northern Isles and his parents’ inn for the theaters and royal masques and glitter of Londre, swearing he’d make his fortune as a playwright and poet, trading fish stew and rain for fame and adoration and a place at the Queen’s Court. Now his parents are gone and Cade’s inheritance brings him back home, where he’d never wanted to return. But magic lurks beneath the waves, a stray pearl might be a key to another world, and even the quiet local schoolteacher has secrets of his own. Jeremiah Carver never meant to hide secrets. But he promised to tell no one about the other world he’s seen, and he keeps his word. Even if that means concealing magic from Cadence Bell. Which is difficult, since Cade’s not only a dazzling literary success, but also the person Jeremiah’s loved from afar since their years-ago childhood. And he’s afraid he’s falling for Cade all over again now. When Cadence falls under the siren spell of the ocean’s magic, Jeremiah has to make a choice and return to a world he’s left behind once before to rescue his heart from the sea.
