When you wake up with no memory of who you are, you know it’s probably going to be a bad day.
That’s exactly what Bentley thought — but she had no idea how bad.
When she saw the wires connecting her to a strange, glowing sword, and an old guy bleeding out next to her, she started to get an inkling.
And then she met the Three.
Three gods cast out of the Unseen World, condemned to make their way in this universe as best they can. Naturally, after 300 years wandering through space, they’ve devolved into rogues in robes; hustlers with a (strange) moral code.
While desperately trying to keep from being thrown out the airlock, Bentley discovers that the Three have a secret. A secret that involves the sword, the Unseen World, and a big bad that’s hell bent on hunting her down.
With the fate of both worlds hanging in the balance, Bentley has to survive long enough to figure out how to get the Three on board and stop the fabric of spacetime from being torn apart.
But that starts with figuring out the significance of this damn sword!
If you like your sci-fi witty and every now and again a little ‘off the wall’, you’ll love this original series, from the best-selling author of The Ascension Myth.
Get it now.
Shela is an ocean cowboy, genetically-engineered to live a peaceful life at sea herding tuna. Human traffickers are intent on capturing her and selling her into the sex trade. Their efforts to kidnap her and collect a substantial bounty leads the reader on a chaotic journey involving scheming dolphins, a bevy of misfit pirates, and the determination of Shela’s friends to rescue her from terrible danger. Everyone’s life hangs in the balance as each person must decide what they are willing to sacrifice to save Shela and themselves.
What they are saying about Shela.
“I thoroughly enjoyed “Shela”! I was pulled into the story right away and enjoyed it all the way to the end. Highly recommended.
Technical analysis of this scifi novel: world-building good (it’s Earth, but not the Earth you know or likely even imagined), character development good, plenty of action, and the suspense is excellent.”
Jack L. Knapp, author
“Set in the near future, this exciting and imaginative ocean adventure features genetically engineered human swimmers, fatalistic sentient dolphins, and malevolent human traffickers. You’ll feel the spray on your face and swell of the sea as the heroes race to save one of their own. Definitely worth a read.”
Science Fiction and Fantasy writer – S. Evan Townsend
“Brumbaugh’s creative imagination sparkles in this tale of action and suspense, love and heartbreak, good and evil. A close-knit community of genetically-altered human shepherds live an idyllic life on the ocean, working with their dolphin partners to cultivate fish for harvest. That is, until slave traders kidnap a female shepherd and spirit her away to a fate unknown. Ride a rollercoaster of emotions as remarkable heroes launch a longshot attempt at rescue. A fun, engaging read sure to keep you entertained. Five stars!”
Doug J. Cooper, author of Crystal Deception
Stranded in uncharted space, Karma is finding it harder to keep information from the crew.
But what she knows will affect their chances of survival.
At least with the crew knowing about the device it means that she can work with them to get it back online and find a way home.
That would be the plan, but for a pesky distress call.
A distress call they have to answer.
The problem with responding to distress signals in unknown space, with untold threats all around, is that you also run the risk of needing to send out your own distress call.
Which presupposes that there are friendly folks somewhere around. And that you’re not going to attract the attention of any lurking hostiles.
Not only that, but their side quest could very well result in losing crew members.
And we’re not just talking about red shirts.

The year on the human home world calendar is 2220.
Life is a bit like the sci-fi shows of the 20th Century in some ways.
In others? Not so much.
I’m on a League of Civilizations star ship. Yep. Star Ship. In space.
Currently trying to physically, and emotionally, recover from a crash where I lost my partner. All would be going fine except we also have to survive an encounter with the deadliest lifeform in the universe.
A lifeform we were starting to think was just legend.
No big deal.
If it were just about the lives on board that would be one thing. But it’s not. What we do next will impact everyone, in all the League civilizations. That’s hundreds of billions of sentients. They could all be wiped out.
I’m running out of options.
And time.
Oh yeah, and as if dealing with trying to save everyone in the universe wasn’t enough, I also have to contend with a crush on the ship’s first officer who also happens to be… yes, you guessed it, a synthetic life form.
Fuck my life.
Surviving either of these things intact is going to be a challenge.

Humanity is on the brink, goblin zombies hunger for flesh, and hulking monsters devour the unwary…
There is safety behind the fortress walls of Sanctum, the last known human city to survive the outbreak. But with a dystopian government intent on crushing dissent in the name of safety, Jack Wulf prefers to face the dangers outside the walls. Alone, he scavenges for technology and equipment he can sell on the black market.
Humanity can bite the dust, for all he cares.
But a brilliant scientist devises a foolproof plan to reverse the virus. Wulf has heard many ‘foolproof’ ideas before and knows better than to trust anyone or anything. Besides, he’s facing a dozen mutants who’ve cornered him in an abandoned basement—saving humanity is out of the question… unless he can save himself.
