The Diamond City: Book One of the Adventures of Vernon Auldswell, Gentleman Explorer
Through the Bridge of Bones, to the Ancestor Tree, find the Fish that waits in the Sea. Vernon is driven to find the mythical Diamond City, the last remaining artifact of the War that almost destroyed the planet thousands of years ago. Harold's expertise with the cavern dwellers allows him to follow his heart and accompany Vernon down into the cave systems that might lead to their goal. In the midnight-dark depths of the caverns, danger abounds and both men are tried to the limits of their strength and their newfound love. Allied against them are the bad luck feared by the cavern dwellers, the ravenous spiderlike laminak, and the machinations of the deadly Queen of the Morven. Deep in the ocean depths, the City wakes from its slumber.

As the sands blow them off course, Harold grapples with the knowledge that he has been changed by his experiences in the Diamond City. Infected with the technology of the Ancients, he feels himself changing, becoming something other than human. Does Harold have the courage to tell Vernon the truth about himself? Does Vernon love Harold enough to accept that he might no longer be human? They might not have time to find out as the sleeping Progenitors stir.

Nightmare Stalkers & Dream Walkers: volume II
Nightmare Stalkers & Dream Walkers attempts to invade the dream world, bringing back the weirdest and most terrifying tidbits-all for the amusement of the reader. The authors in these pages have dared to draw from their dream worlds, beating a path through the wilderness of the human subconscious in order to take us to places better left unexplored. But that's okay. Fiction can't hurt us. Neither can dreams. This much we know. We believe it. And yet, somehow, fear lingers, because we cannot be sure... Can we ever fully trust the hidden part of ourselves that seems to have a life of its own? Can we ever feel one hundred percent comfortable with those elusive shadows that flit in and out of our minds, leaving no trace in our memory? We can't help but wonder about dreams...

The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2018
A collection of the best American science fiction and fantasy stories from 2017.
Humans Wanted
Humans are tough. Humans can last days without food. Humans heal so quickly, they pierce holes in themselves or inject ink under their epidermis for fun. Humans will walk for days on broken bones in order to make it to safety. Humans will literally cut off bits of themselves if trapped by a disaster. You would be amazed what humans will do to survive. Or to ensure the survival of others they feel responsible for. That's the other thing. Humans pack-bond, and they spill their pack-bonding instincts everywhere. Sure it's weird when they talk sympathetically to broken spaceships or try to pet every lifeform that scans as non-toxic. It's even a little weird that just existing in the same place as them for long enough seems to make them care about you. But if you're hurt, if you're trapped, if you need someone to fetch help? You really want a human. Twelve authors provide their perspectives on human ingenuity and usefulness as we try to find our place among the stars. From battletested to brokenhearted, humans are capable of amazing things. Humans Wanted shows not only what we are, but how awesome we can be.
We Cryptids
Cryptids have long haunted our imaginations and folklore. Yetis, werewolves, the fae, the mothman, selkies and more all feature in the stories we tell ourselves to inspire wonder and mystery. By living on the borders of society, at the edges of the map marked "here be dragons", cryptids exist in the liminal spaces between fact and fiction. We Cryptids invites you to consider what would happen if cryptids existed and lived among us. Would they be our neighbors, or would their children be barred from our schools? Would they be viewed as burdens to society, or benefits? Could they "pass" as human, but still be liable to being fired if anyone found out? How would they survive and thrive in a world that doesn't believe in them and fears those who are different?These twelve stories, although metaphors for serious and often deadly societal problems, are intended to inspire you to look at the world differently and perhaps understand others a little better. Even though the theme may be serious, these aren't stories of despair. The characters live on the margins of society, but their experiences are not hopeless. Even as cryptids, they have strength, perseverance, and hope.
