Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a horrific smashup on the interstate, Danny inexplicably acquires the ability to foretell and experience specific moments from others' future lives. This gift destroys his marriage and pushes him to the brink of madness. He finds solace and release as a soothsayer in the back room of the Tree of Life Book Shoppe, handing out tidbits from the futures of his largely narcissistic clients. Kristi, a Tarot reader extraordinaire at the shop, has known since she was an adolescent visited by strange beings who might be goddesses or aliens—who's to say—that she can cast spells that transform peoples' lives, sometimes with disastrous results. When she sets her sights on Danny to win his love, she makes a deal with the Triple Goddess—his love for the pair's help in fulfilling a wish of the goddess's own, to save the planet from its inevitable demise from human hands. Thus begins The Soothsayer & the Changeling in which the varied self-absorbed lives of a stunning beauty, a no-talent screenwriter, a bereaved Christian widow, a disgraced professor, an over-medicated depressive, and a lonely mountain boy with a way with animals are woven together to yield a dream of doom to awaken the slumbering world before it's too late. Promising epiphany over apocalypse, The Soothsayer & the Changeling pits our deeply personal obsessive lives against a dying planet upon which all our dreams depend, and offers the possibility of hope and love.

Book excerpt: DENNIS DANVERS is the author of the acclaimed novels Circuit of Heaven, The Fourth World, End of Days, Wilderness, and Time and Time Again. An ambitious and compelling novel, The Watch tells the story of Peter Alexeivich Kropotkin, a former prince who renounced his riches to become an anarchist, and his deathbed pact with the mysterious visitor who gives Peter a new life in the future—a seeming miracle with a darker edge that soon comes into focus. Praise for THE WATCH "[A] time-travel romp that offers fresh occasion for the philosophical musings that undergirded his earlier novels. . . . He wrings genuine emotion from a decision that Kropotkin must make when given the chance to bring his theoretical ideas to fruition, at a price that calls into question his deepest ethical beliefs."—New York Times Book Review "Danvers' look at Richmond through Kropotkin's eyes is a delight. . . . [His] evident enthusiasm for Kropotkin and his philosophy of mutual aid are the spark to a passionate and charming book." —Denver Post "Clearly, subtly, agreeably articulated. Danvers spins a grand yarn."—Kirkus Reviews "As entertaining as it is enlightening, [The Watch] is Danvers' best yet." —Richmond Times-Dispatch

Book excerpt: Leaving the Dead is a collection of eighteen stories about the long slow dance with death and the heartbreak of life—no zombies allowed. When a writer runs into the ghost of his father who died of Alzheimer’s, death has restored his memory, and he’s eager to share. An unlikely couple and an abandoned-seeing eye dog find happiness after everyone else dies. A college freshman goes home for the holidays with her lover who claims to be a robot—and takes her to an abandoned factory on Christmas Eve where she was born. A cat on death’s door is miraculously healed by his owner, but lives on and on and never ages. When the broken dream factory shuts down, its most devoted worker has to figure out how the world will get along without broken dreams. A Confederate ghost whose grave marker is a stumpy stone with a number tells what he was really fighting for after the Segway tour has rolled away. In the Vietnam days when BF Skinner was king, a young man fasting to flunk his draft physical raises lab rats for the psych department to run mazes that always end with a one-way ticket to the herpetarium. A young poet turns his art into a religion for the inspiration and the tax break, and just maybe, immortality. A strong young woman hacking a home out of a mountainside thinks she has a rattlesnake problem until she learns to love them, and they love her back. A carnival performer sings a beautiful song and plummets to her death but rises to live and sing another performance, as long as someone in the crowd would willingly die in her place. In a triptych of novelettes an old man traces his alien roots all the way back to the mysterious geological feature known as The Abyss.

Book excerpt: DENNIS DANVERS is the author of the acclaimed novels Circuit of Heaven, The Fourth World, End of Days, The Watch, Time and Time Again, and Wilderness. WHILE SCOURING THE ATTIC of her literary hero and dissertation subject, Gene Sanders Wilkerson, grad student Genevieve Slidell comes upon five previously unknown Wilkerson novels. In a variety of genres and nothing like his previous work, Genevieve fears the stodgy world of Wilkerson scholarship won't understand them, and she claims them as her own, entering them in a batch of literary contests. Two win and two place. SHE MAKES THE ROUNDS of genre conventions to accept her honors accompanied by Wilkerson's ghost Sandy who's taken with the idea of vicariously enjoying being famous again through her. EVERYTHING IS GOING SWIIMMINGLY for the pair until they get to Literature where the whole thing blows up, only to be resolved by a clever courtroom drama in which she pleads not insanity but metafiction. A bumper car ride through the crazy business of telling stories, The Perfect Stranger explores the complex relationship between the author and her work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A striking new reissue of an epic fantasy by popular Harper author Shirley Rousseau Murphy, featuring a princess's dangerous quest to reclaim her throne...and, of course, cats! There is a door in an artist's garden: an elaborate carved passageway into a realm ruled by a dark sorceress queen. There entities strange and wondrous roam the Netherworld––yet none as astonishing as the shape–shifting Catswold... Raised by the oldwitch Mag, Melissa discovers a perilous secret. She has more than one form––human girl and magical cat––and once inhabited two worlds. And it is her destiny to return to a mystic realm of wonder and terror, to do battle for her people's liberation and the crown that is rightfully hers. A man beset by tragedy, painter Braden West is intrigued by the calico cat who has charmed her way into his studio. But his "guest" is more than she seems, and Braden's very existence will be radically altered as he follows Melissa from the Hell Pit into the dread perils of an evil ruling court, thrust into the heart of a magical conflict with more at stake than he could possibly have imagined.
