    Time Tourist Outfitters, Ltd. with Christy Nicholas

    Meet Christy Nicolas, an author with great ties to history, and a talent for snark. And who refused to leave saving the world to the teenagers.

    Time Tourist Outfitters, Ltd.

    A deadly virus, a rogue time machine. Can a retired Time Agent brush up her skills before the clock runs out on the world?

    Retired First Nations Temporal Agent Wilda Firestone wants nothing more than to run her Toronto costume shop for Time Tourists, spoil her cat, and drink her coffee. Her world is shaken when a deathly ill rogue time traveler falls on her doorstep and Wilda is dragged back into the fray to find the plague’s source. As she traces the traveler’s footsteps through time with her assistant, Mattea, they must travel to the luxurious court of Mansa Musa, the dark forests of pre-Columbian America, and fight against the heartbreak of true love. As they navigate politics, camels, and bandits, events take a dire turn when Wilda and Mattea discover a much larger conspiracy.

    Ring of Fire with Stevie Rae Causey

    Ring of Fire with Stevie Rae Causey

    Meet Stevie Rae Causey, who loves epic fantasy and retellings, and believes that myth and story play a big part in our emotional development.

    Ring of Fire

    Betrayal. Forbidden love. A human girl must choose between safety and truth when she falls in love with an elven prince. Kala was only 8 when Mystics killed her parents. At least, that's what she'd been told. Her uncle-one of the king's soldiers and the only witness-had never had the heart to burden her with the details of the night that had changed him forever. Still, she should have known better than to wander in to the woods alone. An encounter with a pair of elven enemies leaves Kala even more confused about her past, and uncertain of her future in the human world. "Love had blinded me to all logic, wrapping me in my own denial..." Ring of Fire is a companion novel to the Amasai Rising Trilogy. If you like magic, adventure, and forbidden interspecies romance, you’ll love Ring of Fire.

    Derek Williams, Jacob Mendez, and Vicky Abrams have trained for years to helm the first manned spaceflight launched by US Air Force Space Command.

But when the engine reaches full capacity, the craft unexpectedly hurtles into the unknown.

    Awakening with Brett Humphrey

    Awakening with Brett Humphrey

    Meet Brett Humphrey, author of the Dragonborn series, as he combats bullying and cheers on the geeks.



    Awakening (book 1 in the Dragonborn series)

    I soared high in the night sky in the most realistic dream I'd ever had. At least, I think it was a dream.
    * * *
    On the eve of his thirteenth birthday, Alister Drake believed he was a typical middle-school-aged boy—until he grew four inches overnight. Developing superhuman abilities that rivaled those of characters in books and movies he and his friends cherished, he struggled to understand how his life had turned upside down so suddenly and so completely.
