Publisher's Note: This story contains vignettes of abuse against a minor. Reader discretion is advised. For the vast majority—their dreams will prove to be elusive. Regardless of how hard they work to keep them alive. Which brings us to the curious case of Emma Avancena. A woman, who for all intents and purposes, has never believed in the power of her dreams; having had hers cut short by personal tragedy during her adolescence. That tragedy turning her from a precocious Texas cowgirl with a fondness for all things "ladybugs" into a detached killing machine, whose entire existence could best be described as indifferent. Regardless of who her targets are or what they’ve done, Avancena exce...

Exiled

Space... long considered the final frontier to the vast majority of people on Earth. However, for the powers that be running the United Nations, it represented something totally different—an escape. An escape from an environment ravaged by centuries of war, greed, over-population and hyper-industrialization—now having been altered into a decaying brown globe of pestilence and death. No one understood this looming threat more than Dr. Myron Bethea, a renowned geologist working for the UN. Through his exhaustive research, Bethea discovered that our beloved home-world was on its way to becoming like the rest of its neighbors in the solar system. In essence, it was only a matter of time unti...

“It is only through the tragic lens of death that we may be able learn the beautiful meaning of life.” Nowhere was the above-referenced quote more relevant than to the existence of MAVUTO LOYISO, a former South African officer turned gun for hire. Since adolescence—Mav—as the world had come to know him—was forced to endure. Beginning with his father’s unsolved murder to making ends meet in present-day Johannesburg, some might gather that nihilism had a stranglehold on Mav’s consciousness. That it was the danger that he had become most attracted to. His latest job promised that and much more as he was contracted with the responsibility of transferring and protecting NEVILLE SHED...

Hollow

“We only become aware of a void when we attempt to fill it.” That had long been the mantra of Major Warren “Ren” Chevalier, a decorated former soldier, now working security and logistics at the Chinese Embassy in D.C. Over the years, Ren developed a reputation for solving problems before they had the chance to develop. Since the passing of his late wife, Ren tried everything humanly possible to compensate for that loss by being the best father he could to their only son, Noah. Despite his efforts, it never seemed to work. Against his wishes, Noah relocated to Asia, hoping to blaze a new trail. The one person he tried to keep closest, was the same one who wanted to be around him the l...

Mimema

It is often stated that imitation is the highest form of flattery. In the case of Chicago journalist, Malinda Skoda, expecting such sycophancy would be a proverbial waste of time. Simply put, she’s the last of a dying breed. In a time where press and media are largely controlled by corporate interests, what the general public is offered to read and watch can no longer be considered objective and unbiased, but rehearsed and prejudiced, all in an effort to sway. This reality is not lost on Skoda, who continues to forge her own path, making powerful enemies at almost every turn. Her goal being the same as it ever was: To get to the truth! No matter the cost! A chance encounter with the chairm...

First Arcadia

Serendipity… For the better part of twenty-five years, both Octavia Fiske and Armand Mundy have long awaited this particular weekend. For Fiske, the CEO of the Norwood Fox, this weekend represents new beginnings, as the company morphs into an undeniable behemoth.

Originally conceived by her father and the company’s founder, Maynard Fiske, and built by some of the finest minds to ever walk the planet, First Arcadia is a dream come true to governments and citizens alike.

Our Own Kind

Our Own Kind is a World War II novel without the combat, a novel about the America the soldiers left behind. Anne Weiss depicts here in families of different social and income levels the effects of the war in daily experience as well as on the greater occasions of weddings and funerals. Hers is an Our Town view of an upstate New York town called Westerveldt, where the importance of the characters behavior and conversation is historically clear to us while dimly perceptible to them. They feel helplessly caught up in events they cant control. The Osterhoudts and Van Leuvens, the old established families, as well as the Sloanes and Mancusos in trade and contract work, see their sons dying overs...
