It is 1734 in Burlington, New Jersey, and nineteen-year-old Aislin Collins carries many secrets, but the one that threatens to surface has the potential to change her life forever: Aislin is a witch.

Now, something evil lurks in the woods outside Aislin's home. Animals are found slaughtered and drained of every drop of blood. It stalks in the shadows as men patrol the forest nightly to hunt the unknown malice, but the creature is not interested in them. It is after Aislin, for the creature is the servant of a witch hunter, and is cloaked by dark magic. As rumors spread through town, Aislin is protected by a handsome, mysterious stranger who disappears as quickly as he arrives. Even as the witch hunter haunts her every step, her protector, Greer, appears in all her dreams.

Aislin realizes she is falling undeniably in love with Greer, but her mother is suspicious of him and fears that Aislin is falling into a trap. Soon, Aislin must face a destiny she never foresaw, but as she attempts to protect herself and all those she loves from the witch hunter's wrath, the spirits keep warning her, "Things are not as they appear..".

A rare, searing portrayal of the future of climate change in South Asia. A streetrat turned revolutionary and the disillusioned hacker son of a politician try to take down a ruthlessly technocratic government that sacrifices its poorest citizens to build its utopia. The South Asian Province is split in two. Uplanders lead luxurious lives inside a climate-controlled biodome, dependent on technology and gene therapy to keep them healthy and youthful forever. Outside, the poor and forgotten scrape by with discarded black-market robotics, a society of poverty-stricken cyborgs struggling to survive in slums threatened by rising sea levels, unbreathable air, and deadly superbugs. Ashiva works for the Red Hand, an underground network of revolutionaries fighting the government, which is run by a merciless computer algorithm that dictates every citizen's fate. She's a smuggler with the best robotic arm and cybernetic enhancements the slums can offer, and her cargo includes the most vulnerable of the city's abandoned children. When Ashiva crosses paths with the brilliant hacker Riz-Ali, a privileged Uplander who finds himself embroiled in the Red Hand's dangerous activities, they uncover a horrifying conspiracy that the government will do anything to bury. From armed guardians kidnapping children to massive robots flattening the slums, to a pandemic that threatens to sweep through the city like wildfire, Ashiva and Riz-Ali will have to put aside their differences in order to fight the system and save the communities they love from destruction.

Enter an immensely powerful and intelligent alien shuttle with two young friends and find yourself transported to a realm of wonder and amazement that may challenge nearly everything you have been led to believe.

Follow Nick and Angie from Boulder, Colorado as they explore what they believe to be an undiscovered cave but instead find great danger, from which they can escape only by taking a pathway to the stars. The way leads the two young adventurers, and Nick's little dog "Doc," to a fateful rendezvous with a huge Pleiadian Mother Ship, aboard which they experience wonders beyond anything they could have imagined, yet also the depths of terror and fear.

Why? To what end? Where will it all lead? Who is behind it, and what do they want? Unravel the mystery and discover the answers to these questions and a lot more, that up until now, most humans have been afraid to ask. -- And perhaps still not quite ready to face.

Is it fiction, or reality? Is it too much light? Is it too much truth to take in all at once? At times during the journey, it certainly seems so. Discover what Earth's leading quantum physicists already know about our shared inner reality, and how it relates to the outer universe, in some of the newest and hardest-hitting Sci-Fi around.

And perhaps, as you embark on your own journey of self-discovery, learn how your own imagination can take you to places far more desirable than the "reality" you have been programmed to accept. If you are ready.

But keep in mind, it's just a story. It's only science fiction.
