In December 2012, the U.S. government launched a secret program to create superhumans called Ascendants. In July 2018, the U.S. government lost control over them. Now, America enters a new era in which ordinary men and women can become the heroes we need... or the monsters we fear. TIME TO ASCEND!

In a world of superheroes, Jayesh Khatri is a healer who works in a hospital. When patients start arriving with feather patterns burned into their backs, Jayesh is drawn into the underworld of black market magic smuggling. But if he can take down the smugglers from the inside, it will keep his crush from fighting the formidible villain Omniscient and probably being killed.

On the run from their past, swordsmen Raedrick Baletier and Julian Hinderbrook search for a place of refuge where they can start over. That search sends them through a remote mountain valley called Glimmer Vale, where unbeknownst to them, dark forces threaten the population’s lives and fortunes. With their hopes of quiet passage through the Vale dashed, and facing a deadly conflict against overwhelming odds, Raedrick and Julian will need all of their wit, courage, and skill just to survive, let alone prevail. Fans of sword and sorcery will enjoy this fast-paced tale of redemption set in a world of valor and magic. Glimmer Vale is the first book in the ongoing Glimmer Vale Chronicles heroic fantasy series. Fans can purchase the book directly from the author or through any of the online retailers: https://ssnstorytelling.com/product/glimmer-vale/ https://books2read.com/glimmervale

The independent planet of Rhysalan provides Sanctuary to 1,462 governments-in-exile. It is the responsibility of the Xenocriminology and Alien Relations department of the Military Crimes Investigation Division to keep a firm leash on the hundreds of thousands of xenos residing on-planet. Assassinations, revolutions, civil wars, and attempted planetary genocides are all in a day's work for Chief Warrant Officer Graven Tower, MCID-XAR. In addition to a missile-armed aerovar, his trusty Sphinx CPB-18, and MCID's extremely liberal policies concerning collateral damage and civilian casualties, Chief Tower is assisted by his extreme xenophobia as well as a military-grade augmented machine intelligence that believes it has found God. QUANTUM MORTIS is an action-packed Mil-SF mystery series.

Artist Pete Hampton, (1940-2018) was a wildly eccentric genius. He created slide shows of his paintings to tell the beautiful, and terrifying stories of his early childhood in the remote hills of Southern California. This work was re created from Pete's journals and the original paintings from 1961 through the early 1970's.

In feudal japan,there are rumors of a man who harnessed the power of a dragon, some call him "the man with the dragon sword" but we know him as the Shotgun Samurai!

这个时代的黎明导致了一场新的军备竞赛，尽管这场竞赛涉及超人而不是超级武器。但是，尽管美国签署了《新加坡公约》，允许联合国控制其超人，但其最大的军事对手却没有。因此，当美国海军陆战队司令得知一支中国超级英雄团队正在北美大陆作战时，他别无选择，只能召集秘密超人组成的部队侦察队，五角大楼甚至不知道他们的存在。

Chloe Anderson is a physics student by day, a hard working, smart girl who's close with her mad scientist professor, working with him as a teacher's assistant. She also moonlights as the superhero, Meta-Girl. Johnny Benvinutti comes from a well-established Italian crime family, and recently found he has the ability to shoot lightning from his hands. He runs his operation out of a coffee shop front business. When the two of them meet, sparks fly on multiple levels. But will they be able to maintain their relationship while keeping secret lives from each other?
