https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C6JYBKTN/

Outlast. Outgrow. Outlive. In the ashes of Earth, evolution is the ultimate weapon.

In 2099, Earth is unrecognizable. Ravaged by climate change, nuclear devastation, and other cataclysmic events, the planet and its people continue to undergo radical changes in order to survive. Most of humanity has allowed themselves to be transformed into Nomads, bizarre human-plant hybrids who continue their lifecycle as flesh-bearing trees connected to a vast mycelial network that forms Earth’s burgeoning consciousness. Welcome to the thrilling, action-packed, and emotionally compelling world of Mendel's Ladder, the first book in the epic sci-fi series, The Collected Histories of Neoevolution Earth.

Battling across the world after the destruction of their home, a pair of cybernetically enhanced warrior women bound by love and loyalty clash with Mutants, Biofreaks, and various other dangers to protect two human-like girls known as the Virus and the Cure. Traveling alongside them is an enigmatic Nomad who has served as the girls’ protector since they were created. Together, they must face the enslaved Hunter and the ruthless Huntress, lethal creations of the old world. The Hunter just wants to save the human woman he loves and lost, while the Huntress desires only to continue the Eternal Hunt and eradicate the final bastions of humanity remaining on Earth. Above this unforgiving landscape, the utopian space station Astrea offers refuge to the select few who escaped Earth's devastation. Here, a tireless worker and son of a notorious revolutionary discovers the harrowing truths hidden beneath the veneer of Astrea's idyllic existence, exposing a reality more insidious than anyone ever imagined.

While these characters' paths intersect in surprising and explosive ways, ancient powers lurk in the shadows, wielding god-like influence and potentially orchestrating the fate of the world itself. With societies and cultures on the brink of collapse, our heroes must form unexpected alliances and confront their deepest fears to protect their fragile world from the encroaching darkness.

Mendel's Ladder delivers an adrenaline-fueled journey set on a dystopian future Earth, brimming with high-stakes action, adventure, and mystery. This epic series opener plunges readers into a world filled with diverse cultures, heart-pounding battles, and characters who will captivate your heart and imagination.

Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars is truly remarkable. Imagine Michael, Lily and their daughter Gabrielle as they step foot in Haven - an ominous town filled with mystery - to settle their late aunt's estate, only to encounter more trouble than anticipated!

Haven is one of those picturesque postcard towns in the middle of nowhere, but currently frozen in the dead of winter and it hides ancient secrets and an evil aura that doesn't go away. Michael starts seeing things that would give anyone chills: dark waters, shadowy figures under the ice... It's all there.

And Haven has its own history: an obscure cult that worshiped questionable deities, ancient ruins, and whispers from the past that don't seem to go away. As more members of this family explore Haven's past, the more they realize they're dealing with something much larger and sinister.

Arkhangel really puts family relationships to the test, forcing them to remain close as every shadow could hide something horrible. Arkhangel strikes that balance between chill-down-your-spine moments and deeper questions about family and loyalty that makes for a thrilling storyline.

Arkhangel: The House of the Seven Stars will satisfy your supernatural cravings while also appealing to your emotions, making for an engaging ride through a town that's both lovely and creepy, featuring a family trying to find their place. Once you step inside Haven with them, you won't want to leave until you've discovered each and every secret it holds!

Editorial Review of The Training Grounds: Mystery of the Immortals by Jason Clark

Editorial Review of The Training Grounds: Mystery of the Immortals by Jason Clark

The Training Grounds: Mystery of the Immortals by Jason Clark is a breath of fresh air in the realm of sci-fi and fantasy, blending elements of both genres into a story that's as enthralling as it is unique. Clark, in his debut, crafts a world that's at once familiar and intriguingly new, setting the stage for a tale that's as much about the journey of self-discovery as it is about saving the world.

The protagonist, Darius, is your everyman— a farm boy with nothing but visions that he can't make heads or tails of. His invitation to the prestigious Training Grounds, a place where the elite train in the arts of warfare and elemental control, is as mysterious to him as his own unexplained abilities. Clark has a way of making Darius's confusion and curiosity contagious; you're immediately drawn into the mystery of why Darius was chosen and what his visions could mean.

What makes The Training Grounds stand out is its ensemble cast. Clark has a knack for character development, making each member of Darius's newfound group— from the skilled archer to the elemental wielder— feel like an essential piece of the puzzle. Their friendships feel real and their challenges, relatable. The dynamics within this group add a layer of depth to the story, blending the excitement of new alliances with the tension of hidden secrets.

The plot unfolds with a pace that keeps you hooked. The Training Grounds itself is a character—mysterious and filled with secrets waiting to be uncovered. The twists and turns as Darius and his friends peel back layers of deceit to uncover the truth about the academy, and potentially, about the world itself, are well-executed. Clark masterfully balances the elements of mystery, action, and even romance, without letting any one aspect overwhelm the others.

Perhaps the most compelling part of the book is the underlying mystery of Darius’s visions. The inclusion of the reaper weapon adds a sense of urgency to the narrative, weaving in an apocalyptic thread that raises the stakes for everyone involved. It’s this blend of personal stakes with world-ending implications that keeps the pages turning.

The Training Grounds: Mystery of the Immortals is not just a story about a group of young people training to become warriors; it’s about uncovering truths—both personal and universal. Clark's debut is a promising start to what could be a memorable series. For fans of both sci-fi and fantasy looking for something that straddles the line between the two, this book is a fantastic escape from reality. It leaves you questioning, right alongside Darius and his friends, not just what the future holds for them, but what it means to be truly powerful in a world filled with mysteries.

THE HISTORY OF THE FUTURE: THE FORBIDDEN BOOK about Planets, Space, Pets, Afterlife, Environment, Autocracy, Ideology, Democracy, Liberty, Corporations, Greed, Wealth, Deception and Karma

  


https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CVBGSFVQ/

This novel is a compelling blend of imaginative science fiction and reflective insights, inviting readers to ponder the mysteries of the cosmos and the essence of human nature.


Are you ready to acknowledge the mistakes we make as a humanity and you as an individual who contributes to them?
Dive into the depths of the cosmos with 
The History of the Future: The Forbidden Book by Rem Statum. This intriguing science fiction novel explores the infinite possibilities of the universe through the story of Sudnum, a planet in a parallel galaxy. Told from the perspective of two Sudnum researchers, the book examines Sundum’s history and its impact on Earth’s future.

The History of the Future will challenge you to reflect on your thoughts and actions, by urging you to glean wisdom from the collective missteps of Sundum’s residents. In reality, are they actually that different from us?
The History of the Future initially received a great response on the planet Sundum and became one of the best-selling books, the so-called "bestseller". Soon, it was no longer available in its original form and was at least partially censored by various confederations. In the Sinistra Confederation, it was available without the part that talks about Dukalis and the Sinistra Confederation. It was similar to the Dextera Confederation, where the book did not contain the part on the Notanay and the Dextera Confederation. It was somewhat surprising that they did the same in the Neutrum Confederation and cut the part that explains Dognalom’s troubles in the Neutrum Confederation. In the Confederation of Independens, it was not available at all. It was only available to a very limited extent in the Traditionalistae Confederation.
The book is now available on planet Earth to give humans insight into the situation on planet Sundum. The inhabitants of Earth should think about this at least a little and learn something from their own mistakes and the mistakes of the inhabitants of the planet Sundum.

Author 
Rem Statum, with a rich background in international economics and experiences across various political and economic systems, infuses his storytelling with insights from his diverse life journey. His narrative not only entertains but also provokes thought about our place in the universe and the potential paths of our future.

This book presents the perfect reading delight to all the readers who enjoyed 
George Orwell's 1984 and Animal farm book or Peter Joseph's The Zeitgeist. If you enjoy in entertaining content that leaves a great impression on you, like Michael Moore Stupid White Men, Dude, Where's My Country and others, then it is necessary for you to get onboard with The History of the Future. To top your experience up, mix it up with Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and you have a winner in your hands.

Kingdom's Con Men

  

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CR7QHRVK/

Kingdom’s Con Men provides readers a satirical exploration of America’s current evangelical landscape, through the eyes of former childhood friends Roland Wade and Nicholas Johanson. They’re grifters—one an ordained minister, the other an atheist—who hit the road to target corrupt megachurch ministers.

"Raising offerings is a gift not every preacher possesses... If only thirty folks are gathered, I believe they've got my money among them. Even if one person gives it all, I'm still gonna meet my goal. If it takes three or four collections in a single service, rest assured, by the time I leave that pulpit every ounce of available cash'll be collected, be it from belts, boots, brassieres, you name it." ~Pastor C. T. Lathaniel

"It's why I despised prosperity gospel and developed a strong distaste for the ministers who preached it. I hated how they manipulated believers in their quest for wealth instead of souls. If allowed to, they would've flipped folks upside down, in the name of Jesus, and claimed every penny plummeting from their threadbare pockets... To earnest but beguiled believers, their pastors' prosperity was proof of the promise of their own. But they failed to grasp prosperity gospel's greatest hidden irony: believers' sacrificial giving ensured their pastors were the only ones, regardless of faith or sacrifice, guaranteed to prosper," ~Roland Wade

"l know you're for real, Roland. But what about the preachers who aren't? They're the real scammers, right? Taking advantage of people. Poor people. Vulnerable people. Hell, taking advantage of you. They deserve the same treatment. They're the ones we should hit... Hell, Roll, let's just try it. Pick a few of those crooked pastors you mentioned—the cheats and liars—and hit 'em," ~Nicholas Johanson

"Banned by 1000 churches!"

"The best banned book you may never read."
