NEW RELEASE: The Depredides Dance

Image
Some things are just not meant to be...or that's the impression Cutter gets as everything that could go wrong starts happening.  The Depredides Dance picks up where the first book in the Mack 'n' Me 'n' Odyssey series leaves off, filling in the gap before the second book in that series. Cutter once again finds herself in hot water, and looking for an escape or rescue, and finding it no longer matters whether Mack catches up with her or not...as long as she survives. You can find links to this newly released, stand-alone, science-fiction, urban fantasy short story on this Books2Read page : https://books2read.com/u/mZp9zp or read an earlier version in Tales of Mack 'n' Me .  

NEW RELEASE: Calliope's Challenge

Some colony start-ups are rougher than others. Some start with a crashed ship and an unplanned destination...for some, as Peony discovers. Calliope's Challenge is the story of how a single mind - even if it is just an artificial one - can thwart the power of an interstellar corporation bent on underhanded business dealings...and the hostile acquisition of another company's colony. And how her resistance grows stronger...with the help of a friend...or three.

In Road Trip , when a curious fairy senses a truckload of distress and goes to investigate, she finds herself in more trouble than she could have imagined.

It covers her endangered disappearance attempt and botched comms hack, as she takes on a ruthless communications company, knowing that Mack's hunt for her is already in play. In her own words: I was in more trouble than I could poke a stick at—and that was before I poked the Depredides interweb. Now?
