Traps Along the Trails
This engaging story of a man and a wolf illuminates how similar the two species are in experiencing joy, pain, relationships, affection and even surviving life-changing trauma. Michael Ferris, a young and very successful wildlife photographer and sculpture leaves a troubled home after high school graduation. His excitement about the natural world in Alaska lures him north to Anchorage. Serendipitous interaction with a like-minded young lady from the Chicago suburbs, and a big lug-nut of a dog named Malik, the couple develop strong bonds of love for each other and empathy for sentient animals. The artist learns from from a fleeting but life-changing glimpse of secretive wolf about the meaning of empathy and how to embrace the consciousness and struggles of a wolf the locals in the Alaskan outback called CRIP. The parallel life events of the wolf and the man are skillfully rendered in the author's captivating prose. Long after reading the last page you will ponder the life lessons and individuals the author presents.

Starfall
Last year, the notorious Doctor Fid waged a violent war to save the Earth from annihilation. Two months ago, the armored supervillain fought a vicious, deadly battle to protect his city. Today, there is only one little girl in need of rescue. Pity any who stand in Doctor Fid's way. It has been more than two decades since the tragedy that led to the creation of Doctor Fid. The brilliant supervillain built weapons of legendary power and forged a terrifying reputation out of violence and misery. Even the mightiest heroes tremble at the sound of Doctor Fid's mocking laughter. But time has dulled the villain's rage, and the bloodiest years have become nothing but a bad memory. Now a new tragedy looms, and Doctor Fid must face his own inner demons before the old madness swallows him whole. Because - to prevent a repeat of his past - the Doctor Fid of yesteryear would have been willing to sacrifice anything or commit any horror. Even if it would have meant pulling the stars from the sky and tearing the very universe asunder.
The Great Unmaking
A propulsive, mind-expanding thriller—and the world-shaking conclusion to the Course of Empire trilogy—about bold scientific dreams turning into nightmares ... or perhaps new beginnings ... After usurping control of the world’s most powerful military technology, General Chip Walden knows the endgame is near and tasks scientist Eric Hill with one final assignment. Helped by the love of his life, Jane Hunter, Hill is haunted by premonitions of a coming catastrophe as the technology he created takes on a life of its own. As Hill attempts to avert disaster, FBI Special Agent Bud Brown seeks revenge for the murder of his fellow agents by eco-terrorist Riona Finley. But what no one realizes is that forces are at work that have already decided humanity’s fate. With the clock ticking toward an irrevocable apocalypse, it’s no longer a question of if the world can be saved, but who will be the chosen few that survive. The Great Unmaking is the grand conclusion to Brian Nelson’s magisterial trilogy that James Rollins has called “a must-read adventure.”
