Discover how to stop death…
…or bring down a nation?
In a country where combining magic is forbidden, sorcerers dedicate themselves to protecting everyone from the mindless monsters that kill thousands this crime creates: curses.
But Whisper is different.
Whisper, a self-aware curse who inhabits the bodies of different hosts to interact with the world, witnesses death as its first experience of existence.
A death it caused.
Traumatized by this encounter, Whisper seeks to infiltrate the humans in power to find how to eradicate death entirely. Making new hosts and allies into friends, it begins to learn more about the world and its unique nature.
But powerful sorcerers threaten Whisper and its allies, and a conspiracy looms that could topple the entire realm. Whisper needs to protect those it has come to cherish. But no matter what it chooses, someone will have to die.
Whisper’s creation may have been an accident, but its destiny will not be.

Dagmara is a Montreal-based mother of two, who is committed to children’s education and emotional well-being. Born in Poland, and living in Canada, Dagmara Sitek wears many hats—a mom, a wife, and a digital marketer in her 9-to-5 world. Once a kid who loved drawing and writing, she jumped into writing children’s books because she realized something important – not all kids get a fair shot at life. Her debut as an author merges childhood passions with a new mission – to bring hope and awareness to children’s struggles.
“Loris Opens Up His Heart” by Dagmara Sitek was inspired by the tragic story of 8-year-old Kamilek from Czestochowa, who died due to mistreatment by his stepfather. It is a testament to the power of empathy and compassion. It models positive interactions and helps kids put themselves in someone else’s shoes. More importantly, it encourages them to help one another and overcome fears.
In “Sarge: Going Deep,” Dr. Stu Ledwith has spun another tale with Sarge in the lead role. We have another powerfully competent female protagonist in Dr. Liv Manginaro, aka Agent Scully, hired by Celestial Guardians for this rescue mission since June is away on vacation. It is replete with a Navy Admiral, spaceships, intrigue, a new alien race and, of course, adventure. Sarge and I hope you enjoy it, maybe with some hot chocolate and a blanket on the couch.

In this day and age with UFOs and UAPs being seen by military personnel and civilians alike, it seemed only appropriate that I include them in my latest book, “Sarge.” ETs, extraterrestrial beings, have been a part of my life for many years now. I have talked with many and have taken pictures of UFOs with my phone’s camera. You can see three of them on the cover. I was lucky, I guess, that the soul of a dear friend of mine cared to share her deepest fantasies with me and gave me permission to write them as I saw fit. It was a nice fit since I love to write soul’s stories. All of my books include the story of at least one soul. My lifetime work has been to help souls heal and arrive at the destination here that most fit them and their particular gifts thus helping their human hosts heal as well. I hope you have enjoyed my books and have shared them with your friends.

Tally grapples with a life-altering decision when she meets 13 year-old Theo on a Greek Island. Will she trust him to gain her heart’s desire? Or will her angel’s dire warnings prevail? Dive into this thrilling fourth adventure in the Tally and the Angel series, where ancient myths collide with the modern world and time bends in unexpected ways
Immersed in the enchanting world of classical ballet during her school years at a specialised girls’ boarding school, Eleanor Dixon leapt into a thrilling professional dance career, across the European stage. Settling for several years in Athens, Greece, she not only founded and ran her own ballet school but also lent her skills as a volunteer veterinary nurse, fuelled by an insatiable love for animals.
Returning to England with her horse and cat, Eleanor now lives on a Shropshire smallholding with her husband, surrounded by an eclectic mix of farm animals and a perpetual stream of pets. However, it was during her Grecian escapades that she discovered her genuine passion for writing. First prize in an adult Fairy Story competition hosted by Writing Magazine marked the beginning of her literary journey, fuelled by the desire to bring magic and excitement to her readers.
Initially drawn to children’s literature upon her return to England, the demands of caring for Highland Cattle, sheep, hens, and a menagerie of pets, coupled with her global travels, temporarily shifted her focus. Yet, undeterred, she channelled her storytelling prowess into daily journals and lively travel blogs, weaving tales of her adventures.
Now fully immersed in the world of writing, “THE GRACEFUL GHOST” was her debut independently published sensation. The book, a dazzling reflection of her ballet-boarding school and teenage escapades, shot to fame with a prestigious shortlisting for the UKSelfies21 Award. This success fuelled the birth of a captivating series, with “Ballet School Boys”, “Ballet School Rumours” and “Triple Trouble at Amberwood” continuing the mesmerising tales of resident ghosts, Grace and Rodney. The series has also received a further two awards from The Wishing Shelf.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. Eleanor is also working on an epic six-book series titled “TALLY AND THE ANGEL.” Tally and her angel embark on jaw-dropping adventures from India to Canada’s North Yukon, Japan and now, Greece. Each book in the series is a thrilling tapestry, weaving in an extra story at the beginning of every chapter, unravelling the mysteries of mystical elements.
Driven by an unyielding perfectionism, Eleanor ensures the professional refinement of her works, subjecting them to thorough third-party editing and proofreading before they grace the printed page. Eleanor Dixon has won multiple awards with her middle-grade stories.

Another delightful book by Dr. Stu Ledwith for your reading pleasure. This book contains the backstory of the mysterious character in the prequel Mission 3047 named Sarge.

As champion of the Goddess of Fate, Marluck had it all: fame, power, status—until his divine favor was stripped while fighting a freakish fledgling god-beast. He somehow became an Oathbreaker: a reviled fallen paladin, scorned by all. A sentence from which most never recover. Bereft of his powers and cast down lower than the cobbles, Marluck stumbles across the Oathbreakers Guild, where other ex-holy warriors like himself meet weekly and share their woes amid cheap ale. It helps, for a time. But when a stranger in the group whispers of four holy sites where other Oathbreakers found favor once more, Marluck is helpless to resist the siren song of renewed succor within the fold of his goddess. Together with three eccentrictic paladins of wildly different faiths—each with demons of their own—Marluck sets out on a do-or-die quest to find favor once more. A hilarious, knockout fantasy from author of The Dragon’s Banker.

Tasked with repelling the invasion is Grand Hetman of the Crown Stanisław Żółkiewski, and he knows who to turn to: Jacek Dąbrowski, the Commonwealth’s most valiant Polish winged hussar.
Jacek has been idle far too long, and the call to arms is a siren’s song he can’t resist. But he has built a life far from the battlefield with his wife, Oliwia, and their children. If he pursues his quest for glory, who will safeguard them?
Oliwia knows her husband is restless. In fact, she’s been sending Jacek on cross-country errands for years in the hopes of quelling his lust for battle. When she realizes her efforts are futile, she resolves herself to letting him go—after hatching a scheme to accompany him.
Honor. Obligation. Devotion. These forces push and pull Jacek in different directions. His country needs him, but so does his family. Where does his duty lie? His choice will cause catastrophic ripples no matter which path he follows … and could very well bring the loss of his loved ones or his life.
Will the cost of defending king and country prove too steep for this warrior?

A companion tothe internationally bestselling novel, The Brass Compass, Operation Blackbird takes the reader on a spy adventure from South America to Europe during a time when the yoke of Communism is tightening the reins on an unwilling people.
—————
October, 1952. The war is over, but for CIA officer Miriam Becker, memories of the horrors she witnessed remain jagged in her mind. While vacationing in Argentina, recovering from a mission that nearly killed her, she’s seeing more ghosts from the past than the sights.
When a longtime family friend and fellow operative, Jake Devlin, tracks her down, Miriam is forced to push everything to the back of her mind for the next mission: help a highly prized and heavily guarded rocket scientist defect from Russian-controlled East Berlin—right out from under the KGB’s nose.

With 400 planets staked and 30 in early gration, physics-savant Nialla and comms-genius Bishr want nothing more than to jump wormholes from system to system—to live and work and laugh and love in their own ship. But their inadvertent discovery, accomplished parents, and interstellar history itself cast shadow patterns across humankind’s future independence in space.
J. R. P. (Janet) Fogg’s focus on writing began while CFO for OZ Architecture, the coolest architectural firm in Colorado. Nine writing awards later she resigned from OZ to follow the yellow brick road, and ten months after that sold her first novel, Soliloquy, a HOLT Medallion Award of Merit winner. Her late father-in-law’s WWII diary led J. R. P. and husband Richard to write the best seller Fogg in the Cockpit. Now managing the 359th Fighter Group’s WWII archives, J. R. P. and her husband have published two military histories about the 359th, with more on their event horizon. Subsequent to coauthoring three novels, in 2022 J. R. P. published Shadow Patterns of Melt while penning serial tales for Kindle Vella and also contracting with Bison Books for Bob West’s Twenty Miles of Fence: Blueprint of a Cowboy. J. R. P. regularly volunteers with Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers and in 2018 was named RMFW’s Honored Guiding Member.
