Which one are you listening to first?

Dani Julian's Black Dog and Rebel Rose, narrated by Jeremy Frazier, follows half-angel Rose and demon-born hunter Skriker as they join forces to uncover a supernatural conspiracy before it threatens the fate of Creation.

Synopsis
"Black Dog & Rebel Rose is the best Urban Fantasy love story I've ever read. Skriker and Rose are better than Bonnie and Clyde. Better than Bogart and Bacall. Better even than peanut butter and jelly." --TwoLips Reviews, upon granting BDRR the Recommended Read and Reviewer's Choice Awards

Half-angel Rose has always flown solo, and that's just how she likes it. Trained since youth by her angelic father in the ways of battle, she flees the heartache of a broken childhood by hunting the nightmarish creatures that hide in the shadows. When she discovers a nefarious plot involving a mysterious witch and her parade of grisly horrors in an abandoned California town, she eagerly treks out to see what blood can be spilled, only to discover that a boy from her past--now grown to manhood--has sniffed out the same prize.

Skriker, the Halfling son of a demon and a stripper, is a supernatural hunter with nothing to tie him down. Between gore-splattered hunts slaying things that go bump in the night, he fills his days and nights with women, cage fights, and hard, fun living. But when the tattooed, Harley-riding bad boy makes a trip out to the rotting burg of Paradise Hill, he finds that he isn't the only hunter to arrive on the scene...and she's someone he was certain he'd never see again. Fierce and beautiful, Rose forces feelings he'd buried long ago to rise to the surface, drawing him into a partnership that neither ever expected.

As the unlikely pair battle their way through the ruins, Skriker and Rose must survive not only the vicious enemy pursuing them but the reawakened--and forbidden--emotions that both were sure had expired...emotions that might make or break the fate of Creation itself.

Rediscover the first installment of Dani Julian's cult-followed urban fantasy adventure, reimagined with enhancements by co-writer Amanda Schrader and film producer/actor Vincent van Hinte (Star Trek: Into Darkness, The Walking Dead), and featuring stunning new artwork by the creator. Come join the hunt!

If you’ve been meaning to start Sentenced to Troll, now’s a good time. Book 1 is FREE, and you can also grab the 6-book bundle for $34.99. Both offers are available for a limited time.

Synopsis:
Who says a troll can't be the hero?

Chad Johnson built his following by being a troll. Online games, social media, you name it---he's there with a witty comeback. But when he goes too far during a televised stream, he's handed a punishment unlike any other.

Instead of the usual ban or suspension, Chad's sentenced to thirty days of full immersion therapy in Isle of Mythos---a world of epic fantasy filled with dungeons and mythical creatures. The twist? He's forced to embody a forest troll, one of the most-despised races in Mythos.

At least the punishment fits the crime.

Now, Chad's on a quest, slaying monsters and aiding his troll tribe. It's different, but not necessarily in a bad way, especially with a mischievous little imp as his sidekick. For the first time in his life, Chad's found something more than just trolling---he's found purpose.

Rehabilitation? Call it what you want, but Chad's all in. Who knows? Maybe this troll can be a hero.

Taken to the Stars by J.N. Chaney & Rick Partlow, narrated by John Pirhalla, is now available on Soundbooth.

After being abducted by aliens and stranded thousands of light-years from Earth, Charlie Travers must work with a group of fellow abductees to survive space pirates and uncover why they were taken.

Start your journey with the free prequel, Cowboy Up. Book 1 is $7.99, or save 25% with a bundle.

Synopsis:
Abducted by aliens. Frozen for decades.

Charlie Travers figures his life can’t get much worse. He lives over a pizza restaurant, he’s lost his girlfriend, and has no prospects for a career.

Then, he’s abducted by an alien robot and taken across the galaxy. When he wakes up, he finds himself stranded thousands of light-years away and about to be killed by space pirates.

Charlie’s only hope of getting through this is learning to work with his fellow abductees: a green-skinned warrior woman, a feathered con man who is just as likely to steal their starship as he is to save them, and a cyborg insectoid pilot who could rip a man apart with ease—if he wasn’t a strict pacifist.

To make matters worse, they were abducted for a reason—one that aims to change the course of the galaxy forever.

Narman's Pyke by J.E. Park, narrated by Keith Brown, is now available on Soundbooth.

After a mission goes wrong, Space Marine Eamon Tauk is stranded on a hostile alien world with the scientist he's sworn to protect. As they fight to survive deadly wildlife and the betrayal that left them behind, Tauk begins to question everything he's been taught about duty, loyalty, and the war he's fighting.

Synopsis:
Eamon Tauk was literally born into the Space Corps. They spent two decades forging him into a Marine. Training him to be a killer. Twisting him into a fanatic. Then they assigned him to protect Dr. Jella Duverii, a mildly subversive alien zoologist who could very well undo all the work they put into him.

When the young cadet and his charge crash land on Kanaris with the survivors of their Recon battalion, they find themselves leagues away from their objective, marooned in an environment so hostile even the trees seem hellbent on killing them. After the Marines are denied rescue for no other reason than to protect the reputation of a high-born coward, Jella begins to educate Tauk on the dynamics at play that have the Kyperion League teetering on the brink of civil war.

As Tauk watches over Dr. Duverii during the long slog to Narman’s Pyke, she teaches him how to combat the horrific creatures stalking them through the rainforest. He must figure out for himself, however, that the biggest threats to their lives are not the beasts lurking beneath the Kanarisian underbrush.

It is the monsters who sent them to Narman’s Pyke in the first place.

Coming across like a cross between the movies “Aliens” and “Platoon,” Narman’s Pyke is the opening salvo of the new epic sci-fi space opera from the author of the Tequila Vikings series, J.E. Park.
