Enid of Haven is an investigator, who with her new partner, Teeg, is called on to mediate a dispute over an old building in a far-flung settlement at the edge of Coast Road territory. The investigators' decision seems straightforward -- and then the body of a young woman turns up in the nearby marshland. Almost more shocking than that, she's not from the Coast Road, but from one of the outsider camps belonging to the nomads and wild folk who live outside the Coast Road communities. Now one of them is dead, and Enid wants to find out who killed her, even as Teeg argues that the murder isn't their problem. In a dystopian future of isolated communities, can our moral sense survive the worst hard times?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"An intriguing mystery made compelling by its post-apocalyptic setting . . .

Or so its citizens are taught to believe. Many dismiss the lies fed to them by a familial line of crooked presidents and choose to live outside the city's walls. But when a new president takes control, he wages a war on these Outsiders, and their leader's daughter Deryn Leon is caught in the crossfire. Five years later Deryn is a slave. Beaten and starved, she has little will to go on. But when a chance encounter leaves her with a means for escape, the forgotten fire inside of her ignites once more and she takes the opportunity with one swipe of a knife to her owner's throat. But escaping Utopia isn't easy. While hiding in plain sight, Deryn is discovered by Xander Ruby, the Utopian Guardian inadvertently responsible for her capture in the first place. Xander, who is guilt-stricken by everything he has done as a Guardian, wants nothing more than to get Deryn home. He takes her in and they soon form a powerful bond that will not be broken, even when the reality of this cruel and beautiful world threatens to tear them apart.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Laura Hancock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50331818787090,"sku":"9780997804904","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_93bc4054-2ed3-48d7-894b-9cdd78dc5c40.jpg?v=1727826124"},{"product_id":"transient-9780998204918","title":"Transient","description":"\u003cb\u003eIn a dark and distant future, death is obsolete.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJonas is a transient: a human spy living as an eternal.

Tap tap tap went the zombie on the bridge. Things are getting stranger and stranger for Adrian Ring, and far more dangerous. It wasn't enough for the people of Westfield to follow Abby and her family home on Christmas Eve and try to kill them. Now they're back for more. In Midnight, the third installment in the smash hit Adrian's Undead Diary series, the threats to Adrian and his new friends are greater than ever before. Local survivors holed up in an empty factory led by the chief of police are now crossing paths with Adrian and the Williams clan. Meanwhile Sean, the bloodthirsty tyrant from Westfield, seethes for vengeance after Adrian fends off attack after attack to take ALPA and everything he's worked so hard for. If they can't get at Adrian, how long will it be before they go after the ones near him? Who can Adrian trust when everyone is out for themselves? Now, at Midnight the darkest revelation of all comes: why. Why have the dead returned? Why are they killing the living? Why do the living only dream of the dead? What has humanity done to deserve such a fate, and what role does Adrian play in this great game? Midnight is the third entry in the Adrian's Undead Diary series. It contains Adrian's journal entries from December 28th 2010 through March 3rd 2011. Intermingled with his diary entries there are four short stories that expand on the horror of Adrian's world: Midnight, London, Guilt, and Tyrant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdit I am the creator and author of A Dragon Among Us as well as Elmoryn and Adrian's Undead Diary. Elmoryn is a decade old game setting and system I developed for commercial sale and development that I am now sharing on the internet, and through the publication of The Kinless Trilogy. As the books set in the Elmoryn universe are released, hopefully interest in the game will grow as well, and that side of Elmoryn will come to light. A Dragon Among Us was inspired by decade old Role Playing sessions with my friend Alan MacRaffen, and has been percolating ever since. It's currently online, and once completed will be farmed into publishing. Not sure if I'll submit it to a big house, or keep it my own. Time will tell. Adrian's Undead Diary is my mammoth zombie epic that more than likely brought you here. Originally published online AUD grew to almost 10,000 active registered users before I decided to publish it. Adrian Ring's story of survival and humanity in a world gone mad has been critically acclaimed and been an unbelievable success online, so seeing what it'll do in print is exciting for me. I'm also the owner of Tier One Games LLC, my old game development company. If you buy something from AUD, Elmoryn, or A Dragon Among Us, you'll likely see the sale credited to Tier One Games. Don't worry, it's legit. I've gone to a LOT of college. I've got a Business degree as well as a Psychology degree, and I've done the full program at the school of hard knocks. I've been a printing press operator, bouncer, purchasing agent, bodyguard, customer service representative, mental health counselor, and more. I can write about weird stuff because I've done weird stuff. Trust me. I call the wonderful state of New Hampshire my home, but I love to travel. I love to read, write, play role playing games, miniatures games, video games, and Magic: The Gathering. When I find the time to be active, I like to hike, play basketball, and play football.

R. Shaw did with The China Pandemic; the first book in the Graham's Resolution series. Not only that, it hit number one in both Post-Apocalyptic and Dystopian genres in May of 2014. Not bad for a Texas girl and former Radio Operator, who served in the Air Force Reserves. Since then, she's written three more novels in the popular Graham's Resolution series, two Kindle World's Novellas in the Perseid Collapse world as well as an addition to the popular Wayward Pines Kindle World, Kate's Redemption. In the works now is a mystery novel and a new post-apocalyptic series, Surrender the Sun, as well as surprise additions to the Graham's Resolution series. She was stunned by the love of her fans for the fictional dog, Sheriff, from the Graham's Resolution series who now has his own Facebook Page run by fans titled Sheriff's K-9 Squad Room. It's a page to share all things regarding police dogs. She's been repeatedly warned, by the fans, never to consider axing the dog; the children are fair game, but the dog stays. Perhaps that's a tribute to her unique ability to write stories that make readers really care about the characters she develops. For now, A. R. Shaw lives with her family in eastern Washington State, but she may soon flee to the hills of Idaho perhaps to some quiet cabin in the woods. You can contact A. R.
