[close] A signed Advance Review Copy of Fractured, Book Two in the Guards of the Shadowlands series.

In the week since Lela returned to Rhode Island as Captain of the Guard with Malachi as her second in command, local news has been dominated by chilling sightings of human-like creatures running on all fours. Lela knows there’s only one explanation: the Mazikin have arrived in the land of the living.

Needing to maintain the appearance of a normal life for her foster mother, her probation officer, and her classmates, Lela returns to Warwick High along with Malachi. At night they secretly hunt for the Mazikin nest. To assist, two new Guards from very different parts of the Shadowlands are assigned to Lela’s unit, including the bad boy Jim, who repeatedly challenges Lela's authority. Lela struggles to keep all her Guards on the right side of the law, but their mistakes come at a terrible cost.

As one painful revelation follows another and the Mazikin start targeting those closest to her, Lela finds herself more vulnerable than she’s ever been, wanting a future more than she ever has. With an enemy determined to separate soul from body, one question remains: how much is she willing to sacrifice to protect those she loves?

[close] The Land Without Footprints: Shadows Amongst Shadows is set in the Modern Middle Ages, the age after the ages of Earth, when humans inhabit a planet where, unbeknownst to them, the moons control every action. What remains of the Earth is confined to books. In fact, many have decided to live by the rules of those books once called fiction.

But no fiction or reality rules over the Mystic. He rules by only two laws: obey his desires and obey your desires. His desires are twofold: virgins and immortality. However, the desires of his subjects are as wicked as ever known.

But the Dagens, a family rooted in the old ways of society, cannot give into their desires. They cannot kill just to kill, hate just to hate, destroy just to destroy. Yet if society is to become what it once was, the Dagens must destroy freedom and place chains around those who no longer wish to be chained. [close]

[close] Marius don Hellespont and his apprentice, Gerd, are professional looters of battlefields. When they stumble upon the corpse of the King of Scorby and Gerd is killed, Marius is mistaken for the monarch by one of the dead soldiers and is transported down to the Kingdom of the Dead.

Just like the living citizens, the dead need a King — after all, the King is God’s representative, and someone needs to remind God where they are.

And so it comes to pass that Marius is banished to the surface with one message: if he wants to recover his life he must find the dead a King. Which he fully intends to do.

Just as soon as he stops running away. [close]

Fifteen years ago he was Raven yr Griffon, the idealistic prince who became a hero to the poor when he championed their secret religion of equality and peace over the nobles' faith in wealth and power.

[close] Dazzling trapeze artist Amandine Sand leads a perilous double life. Will her secret—and her choices—save her planet or ruin it?

Amandine walks a high wire between two lives—hobbled by a life-threatening secret. She’s one of the spotted humans wrongly accused of being a plague carrier. These "leopards" are hunted by zealots to protect their offworld colony from the scourge.

Despite this threat, Amandine spends her days guiding other leopards to an underground shelter run by the pacifist Seekers. At night, with her own spots hidden, she takes to the air, the one place this extraordinary artist feels free and gloriously alive.

When the persecution of leopards explodes into widespread violence, the Seekers demand more of her time. But her circus is teetering toward bankruptcy and desperately needs her, too. She has no time to breathe… and then she meets a stranger who leaves her breathless. And might just be the biggest risk of all. If her trust is misplaced and she’s unmasked, everyone she loves—and everything she’s fought for—could crash.

To survive, Amandine must draw upon everything she’s learned from the circus and Seekers. But can a pacifist defend her violent enemies to stop a civil war? And can this reluctant angel fly beyond her limits to save her life, her love, and her world?

James looked behind him to see that the phoenix had returned, and he was flying straight toward him! He grabbed the girl by the arm. “We have to run!” he yelled. “The phoenix is back!”

The girl looked James in the eye, and for a brief moment, a sign of surprise, followed by a curious expression of joy, flashed across her face.

James and the girl ran as fast as they could toward the big tree. The phoenix was right behind them. Charlotte and Susan had heard the commotion and came running from within the village. They stopped dead in their tracks when they saw the phoenix.

“Hurry, James!” they cried.

James and the girl were only a few yards away from the safety of the tree when, like a racing train, the phoenix flew right into them.

“No!” Charlotte yelled. The girls helplessly watched as James and the girl disappeared over the side of the cliff.

Dehmar and the village people ran to the side of the cliff. They looked over and saw that the children fell helplessly toward the ground.

“What do we do?” one of the creatures cried.

“We have to do something!” Charlotte cried as she ran to the side of the cliff. Her heart was racing and tears were pouring from her eyes. She turned to Dehmar, “Please, think of something!”

Dehmar took off his Indian headdress and held it against his heart. Tears dripped down from his eyes. “My friend,” he cried.

Charlotte looked down at her brother and suddenly her knees felt weak. Before she knew it she was on her knees, crying.

Suddenly the village people got loud as they pointed their fingers and yelled, “Look! Do you see?”

Out of nowhere a large griffin appeared in the sky. A great shadow was cast as the creature flew in front of the setting sun.

“It’s Apollo!” Susan yelled. She jumped up and down. “Charlotte, Apollo has come back for us!”

James and the girl held hands as they sped toward the ground.

“Do you believe in heaven?” James yelled, squeezing the girl’s hand rather tightly.

“For the longest time I thought this place was heaven,” she said.

“I guess we’re about to find out.”

They fell closer and closer to the ground. Their hearts were racing so fast that they thought they were going to explode.

“I never thought it would end this way,” Jessica yelled. “If only we had a parachute!”

“This is it,” James yelled. He closed his eyes. “We are going to die!”

Just as the children had prepared for impact, they felt something wrap around their waists and pull them upward. It was an awkward sensation; it felt as though their stomachs were still falling. When they opened their eyes, the first thing they saw was the ground, which was only a few feet beneath them.

“What is happening?” the girl yelled.

James looked above them. He could see a set of large bird’s wings. He smiled. “We are in the hands of a dear friend.”

Apollo looked down at them. “Are you kids okay?” he said. “I’m sorry it took me so long to catch up with you. You were falling quite fast.”

“Yes, w-we know,” the girl said, trying desperately to catch her breath. “You n-needn’t remind us.”

Quuuaaaaaaahh!

The sound of the phoenix squawking filled the air. Apollo held the children tightly. “Hold on,” he yelled. “This isn’t over yet!”

The phoenix swooped in and shot a stream of fire out of his mouth. Apollo closed his wings and did a roll in the air, dodging the fire but almost collided with the side of the mountain. The griffin was three times the size of the phoenix, but the phoenix was like a fierce wolverine, quick and deadly.

Apollo pushed off the side of the mountain with his hind legs and swiftly opened his wings, knocking the phoenix off its course. The phoenix quickly recovered and flew at Apollo with all his might. Apollo flew up the side of the mountain, climbing up the air as if he were being propelled by rocket engines.

From the top of the mountain, the village people were watching as the griffin and the phoenix battled in the air. They held their breath as the phoenix shot another stream of fire at the griffin, and then again when the griffin kicked the phoenix so hard that he fell toward the ground. But the phoenix was determined. He quickly recovered, flying so fast and so hard that he collided with the griffin.

Apollo screeched. The phoenix flew around him, pecking him with his sharp, fiery beak. He laughed. “Admit it. You’re no match for me!”

“I’ll do no such thing,” Apollo growled. “By the power of the sun, I will defeat you.”

Apollo took off across the sky like he was a jet. He flew over plateaus and between mountain peaks. He skimmed the tops of trees and went a little higher and touched the clouds. He flew on and on, leaving the phoenix in his wake. Finally, the griffin stopped and looked around.

James and the girl both felt very dizzy. The girl looked around and yelled out to Apollo, “I think I know what you are looking for. It’s right down there.”

Apollo quickly made a nosedive straight down into a canyon. The phoenix was right on his tail. Soon they came upon a great waterfall, tucked in between two mountain peaks.

“Hold on,” Apollo yelled to the children. The phoenix shot a stream of fire at them just as they flew through the waterfall. The phoenix backed away just in time to avoid flying into the waterfall, gently landing on some nearby rocks.

There was a shallow cave behind the waterfall where Apollo and the children had landed. They looked through the waterfall and could see that it was getting dark. It had been minutes since they had flown through the waterfall, and they knew that the phoenix was still out there, waiting for them to come out.

“How long do you think he’ll wait?” James said.

“Could be a while,” Apollo answered. He was staring at the waterfall with an angry look in his eye. “Phoenixes are unpredictable creatures.”

“And so are griffins,” James said, an upset look on his face. “Where have you been? I thought you had forgotten about us.”

Apollo turned his head and looked at the boy. “I have been searching everywhere for you and your sisters,” he said. “I thought for sure that I had lost you. And then I heard a lot of noise coming from the village, and something in my heart told me to check it out.”

“It’s a good thing you did,” the girl said. “You saved our lives.”

The griffin looked back at the waterfall. “It was nothing,” he said. The children could tell that the griffin was upset about his conflict with the phoenix.

James opened his backpack and pulled out the “night light.” He used the lantern to light up the cave.

“So where were we?” James said, looking at the girl.

“You were just about to ask me my name,” the girl replied.

Fifteen years ago he was Raven yr Griffon, the idealistic prince who became a hero to the poor when he championed their secret religion of equality and peace over the nobles' faith in wealth and power.

"Marks delivers a sixth-sense thriller with a twist...an intriguing tale with an unlikely protagonist...a new urban-fantasy subgenre...a thought-provoking story... An imaginative, offbeat urban-fantasy..."
-- Kirkus Reviews

"Death Ain’t But A Word is a fast-paced, thrilling book that is both hilarious and heartwarming...an off-the-wall book that is impossible to put down and impossible not to love."
-- San Francisco Book Review ★★★★★ (5 of 5 stars)

Just because Wilkin's a crackhead doesn't mean the shadows aren't real.

They're real. And they've been haunting him since he was seven years old. Mostly he ignores them.

But when the ghost of his best friend from childhood shows up at the local motel, Wilkin can't ignore the call of friendship. And when his friend's killer buys the motel so he can destroy the remains, Wilkin can't ignore that, either.

Wilkin steals his friend's skull before the killer can destroy it and is plunged into a hot mess of a supernatural thrill ride.

A death-race pursuit of a child's skull. A spirit-whispering trucker hauling plush toys to Kansas. Five demonic farm-kids in a housing project. A Dodge City marshal who executes wayward ghosts. A nasty yellow jersey that takes the joy out of living. And a graveyard full of snitches.

It's enough to make you want to hit the crackpipe. All leading to a climax where staying alive is the least of Wilkin's worries.

Because when most of the people around you are spirits anyway, DEATH AIN'T BUT A WORD. [close]

[close] This is a dual giveaway: You get the black and white Reader's Edition of “The Saeshell Book of Time Part 2: The Rebirth of Innocents” and “The Saeshell Book of Time Part 1: The Death of Innocents.”

“The Saeshell Book of Time” is a four part serial. The serial is a single story in the Children of Sophista Book Series, which has a community surrounding it at: https://www.facebook.com/ChildrenOfSo... The community has series illustrations and short stories written in the world of the series.

Since many of my fans are Harry Potter readers, here is a comparison I have written for them:
{
Welcome #HarryPotter fans. I've noticed that a number of you have showed up lately and I hope that I can be your next long series to read. The series is based on several important premises, one of which is that "Magic is science that humans don't understand." As a result, one difference with the series is that it goes to a lot of trouble to make sure you, the reader, understands the kind of the science behind the magic. The series builds a very detailed world which happens to be the world you live in today. It shows that if you had a compact, extremely powerful power source integrated into your own body, you too might be capable of performing quite a bit of magic. I think you will find the series to be quite an emotional ride as the cross species children, the Children of Sophista, learn to use their suddenly acquired talents and learn who they truly are. There are also numerous human looking aliens on hand that try to fit into human society and try to alter it into a more peaceful society. You will take a journey where at various points along the journey you will stop and ponder "What is the true nature of life?"

I won't lie to you, this series as it progresses, becomes much more terrifying and intense than Harry Potter. It's a slow build so you will have a chance to become accustomed to it. Stefan and Tova's journey is quite painful as their pure minds become sullied with the necessary knowledge --- the knowledge required for them to rule as the secret King and Queen of present day earth. They have no choice in this task as failure to succeed will mean that they will be killed.

I hope you will take this adventure with me and together we can share a truly different kind of story and magic.
}

Book #2's description:

Tova2 and Stefan discover immortal love—a new species so lonely, so vulnerable to extinction. The Queen of Sophista’s unbridled ambition twists Stefan’s mind. Will Tova2, the new chief enforcer, kill the Queen to protect her love? Will Stefan’s teen meltdowns drive his enormous power to accidentally kill everyone? Stefan, the bio-battleground for so many races, struggles to understand who he is. Did his mentor and friend, Elof2, steal Tova2’s heart? Perhaps…but perhaps Stefan, with the help of the Great Sophistan and Tova2, will discover the king of all within.

Book #1's description:

Stefan, an advanced seventh-grader, shouldn’t have to decide the fate of his mother’s unborn child or prevent his adolescent anger from incinerating people. Unknowingly born a fairy, loving fantasy, magic, and art — and betrothed at birth to his mentor Tova2 — aliens force a metamorphosis and the two must travel to the distant planet, Sophista, or die. Tova2 must keep Stefan sane as he becomes the secret king of contemporary Earth — or the Saeshell Book of Time will destroy everyone. In part one, the fifth-grade son of a Mayan astronomer, Tyco, and Ty, the third-grade son of a British Prime Ministerial aid, must learn from their Tibetan-American teacher to use their powerful talents ethically. Otherwise, Tova2 will kill them.

Kera has these new powers, too. She's seen them before and knows what they can do if kept unchecked…and it’s not pretty. Plus, going back to her home realm, Teag, would hasten the process. Kera is determined to keep her one true love, Dylan, safe on Earth, but when the barrier between the human realm and Teag weakens, allowing monster-like creatures to pass over, Kera becomes desperate to protect her home.

When Kera is kidnapped and imprisoned in a corner of her world that no one has ever escaped from alive, can Dylan overcome his unbridled powers—and himself—to save her?

Synopsis:

On Jeroun, there is no question as to whether God exists--only what his intentions are.

Under the looming judgment of Adrash and his ultimate weapon--a string of spinning spheres beside the moon known as The Needle--warring factions of white and black suits prove their opposition to the orbiting god with the great fighting tournament of Danoor, on the far side of Jeroun's only inhabitable continent.

From the Thirteenth Order of Black Suits comes Vedas, a young master of martial arts, laden with guilt over the death of one of his students. Traveling with him are Churls, a warrior woman and mercenary haunted by the ghost of her daughter, and Berun, a constructed man made of modular spheres possessed by the foul spirit of his creator. Together they must brave their own demons, as well as thieves, mages, beasts, dearth, and hardship on the perilous road to Danoor, and the bloody sectarian battle that is sure to follow.

On the other side of the world, unbeknownst to the travelers, Ebn and Pol of the Royal Outbound Mages (astronauts using Alchemical magic to achieve space flight) have formed a plan to appease Adrash and bring peace to the planet. But Ebn and Pol each have their own clandestine agendas--which may call down the wrath of the very god they hope to woo.

Who may know the mind of God? And who in their right mind would seek to defy him? Gritty, erotic, and fast-paced, author Zachary Jernigan takes you on a sensuous ride through a world at the knife-edge of salvation and destruction, in one of the year's most exciting fantasy epics.

--

Words of Praise:

"A visionary, violent, sexually charged, mystical novel--NO RETURN challenges classification. Clearly, Zachary Jernigan has no respect for genre confines. His tale of gods hanging in the sky and a "constructed man" with glowing blue coals for his eyes and a motley band of fighters navigating a harsh landscape peopled by savage creatures and religious zealots... Well, it's pure genius. Here's hoping it's just the first of many such works from this guy." - David Anthony Durham, Campbell Award-winning author of the ACACIA Trilogy

"Zachary Jernigan's genre-defying epic raises the bar for literary speculative fiction. It has the sweep of Frank Herbert's DUNE and the intoxicatingly strange grandeur of Gene Wolfe's BOOK OF THE NEW SUN, with a decadent, beautifully rendered vision all its own. One of the most impressive debuts of recent years." - Elizabeth Hand, Nebula and World Fantasy Award-winning author of AVAILABLE DARK and RADIANT DAYS

"Be careful picking this one up, because once you join with the adventurers in this strange and stunning debut novel, there will be no going back to the familiar precincts of heroic fantasy. Zachary Jernigan starts at the very edge of the map and plunges deep into uncharted territory. Mages in space, do-it-yourself gods, merciless killers in love and a mechanical warrior with a heart of bronze await your reading pleasure. For thinking readers who like swashbuckling with an edge, NO RETURN delivers." - James Patrick Kelly, winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus Awards

"NO RETURN is a rich, diverse, inventive fantasy, in a style that reminds me in some ways of Tanith Lee's TALES FROM THE FLAT EARTH books. Zachary Jernigan has created a stunningly original world and I can't wait to see where he takes it next." - Martha Wells, author of the BOOKS OF THE RAKSURA

"Jernigan's fiction is luminous and hallucinatory with its world-building, while still grounding readers into strong characters fully human. He scribes the future as an alien landscape with only just enough familiarity to unsettle us from our familiar, comfortable tropes. I highly recommend this gorgeous debut novel to all fans of strange fiction." - J. M. McDermott, author of the DOGSLAND TRILOGY [close]
