Rising Phoenix is the third book in the Visions of David Palmer
series. After neutralizing David Palmer, Falin and the Brotherhood
are preparing for the most destructive phase in their pursuit for
ultimate power and world dominance. Destroying the world's
economies and starting a world war that will leave freedom in
shambles will also propel Falin to the position of global dictator.
The only thing standing in Falin's way is the Alliance, and Falin
has concocted a plan to remove that final obstacle. The hope of the
world now hangs on whether David Palmer and Madlyn Walker can rise
like a phoenix from the ashes.
When David Palmer graduated from high school, married his high
school sweetheart, and enrolled in the University of Chicago with
enough college credit to be a junior, he was well on his way to
live the rest of his life in normalcy. Settling down, having three
children, and earning a middle-class household income were all the
adventure David wanted. In the wrong place at the wrong time, David
becomes captive to a tragedy that steals any hope that he will lead
a normal or quiet life. A victim of the latest public massacre,
David is left in a coma for ten months, only to wake and find that
the shooting has taken more from him than he imagined possible
while leaving him with an epileptic disability. With everything
taken from him, David resigns himself to a life with no purpose. At
least, that is how he planned to live until he finds that, in place
of what he has lost, he has been given a new gift - an
extraordinary gift that provides him with visions of the future and
compels him to pursue justice against those who altered his life.

Recoil is the second book in The Visions of David Palmer series, a
multi-book series from Stephen Reid Andrews Six months have passed
since David, Maddy, and Ridley defeated and exposed the domestic
terrorist organization known as the Triangle. With the occasional
help of David's brother, the league of friends have spent their
time using the foreknowledge of David's visions to anonymously go
about serving the desperate and destitute. Whether helping victim
or potential perpetrator, their objective and ultimate satisfaction
comes from using their limited resources and abilities to make the
world around them a better place. Unknown to the trio, David's
visions have routinely put the group at odds with some of the most
powerful people in the world. Because they have disrupted evil too
many times to be ignored, an organization much more dangerous and
menacing than the Triangle is about to go hunting, and David Palmer
is their target. Unfortunately, in the midst of the group's
struggles, when David's visionary powers are needed most, David
discovers that any help from his visions could also mean his death.
Thomas' life was seemingly perfect. His father was someone he loved
and respected, he had a family that cared deeply for him, and he
had a friend to whom he could look for guidance. Most perfect of
all, Thomas' best friend was also the love of his life, Mary Lyte,
who he planned to one day marry. Unfortunately, when his father
refuses to accept a call from the Prophet and is subsequently
excommunicated from the Church, Thomas finds his perfect life
suddenly spiraling out of control. Confused at the happenings and
torn between following the father he loved and holding on to the
life he once had, Thomas makes choices which lead him to suffering.
Eventually, Thomas becomes entangled in an evil plan which he does
not understand and which he does not expect to escalate into the
tragedy it becomes. Unlike Andrews' other works which are intended
for general audiences, Raising the Barn is intended for those who
enjoy reading LDS religious fiction or who enjoy fiction and have a
basic understanding of the LDS religion.

Beauty broke the spell by falling in love with the Beast, and they
lived happily ever after. For Elise, her friends, her father, and
every other citizen of Colmar, the story was a fairy tale created
by the older generation to help little children sleep at night
without fear. But, forty years after Belle and over sixty years
after the curse, the legend becomes a haunting reality once again.
Joined on one side by Marshall, who is possessively in love with
her, and joined on the other side by her invalid friend Patric, who
Elise feels she must protect, Elise never thought she would also
befriend the prince and take her own place in the fairy tale.
Unfortunately, the return of the Beast means more than finding
beauty and love among ugliness and hate. The Beast has real-life
consequences that result in misery, confusion, and suffering, and
the return of the Beast means Elise must choose who and what she
cares about most and must discover whether, like her predecessors,
she can tame the Beast.
