The Pipes Were Calling
There are many books about war. There are books that describe the bravery and glories of war. Other books portray the warrior as an "anti-hero". The Pipes Were Calling: A Vietnam War Story is not either of these formula tales. The Pipes Were Calling tells the story of a boy, 18 year old and fresh from high school who is drafted and then sent to fight in Vietnam. He has no combat experience or Hollywood scriptwriters. To survive, he must quickly learn the rules of war. Danny Murphy learns these rules, experiences combat, endures the deaths of friends, and engages in the black humor of crises. We share his experiences as he goes from "newbie" to veteran, then finally to civilian. Danny's story is told with honesty and humor, hopefully leaving us with a clearer understanding of war.
A Time to Heal
Alone on an alien world, Rik Holly had recently lost the love of his life. Events have consequences. Before her passing, Jen's last communication to the Taman homeworld would be detected and traced to the blue-water world known as Earth. Two offworld races, working as one, will push the lone Taman archeologist into protecting the people that he and Jen loved so much. This is a story of pain and conflict, but also one of honor and responsibility. Rik will learn to deal with his loneliness, though the man was never truly alone. A woman from Earth, Celia Duran, will be introduced to an offworld culture that will push her limits, and expose her to new elements of danger and adventure. Involvement has consequences, which is something Celia will learn, and something that Rik will remember from a time gone by. This is a complicated tale, written for all age groups.

Pat Holloway was a lawyer who operated drilling funds but had never tested the ill-fated Austin Chalk. He drilled the most and earned the most but lost it all in the shady confines of a Dallas courtroom. Jimmy Luecke was a highway patrolman who stopped Holloway for speedin...
