The Dragon’s Eye by Erynn Lehtonen

About The Dragon’s Eye by Erynn Lehtonen:

REALITY IS NOT THE ONLY NIGHTMARE.

Genshu Hidekazu and Masanori believed they ended Lacotl’s reign of terror. Now, they know his schemes have only just begun.

In the wake of Lacotl’s capture, Hidekazu and Masanori grapple with their new lives—including the death of their dear friend, their future as students of the Tsukiko Academy, and their newly volatile relationship with Furahau Aihi, the princess of Seiryuu.

Yet no Dragon Princess would forget the betrayal of her own brothers.

Aihi is determined to uncover the extent of Lacotl’s plans—and how it involves the Dragon’s Eye—without Hidekazu and Masanori’s help. But her stubbornness is her undoing, and when tragedy strikes, she has no choice but to rely on them after all.

The secrets of the Dragon’s Eye await where demons dwell…

A place that turns dreams to nightmares.

A place no one leaves unscathed.

Masa, Hide, and Aihi’s journey continues in The Dragon’s Eye, the second of four novellas prefacing the Wyvern Wars series: an epic fantasy adventure inspired by selections of Japanese mythology and folklore.

Available at $0.99 for a limited time.

Alter Ego

About Alter Ego:

Hollywood days. Vigilante nights.
To the world, she’s a star.
To the league of heroes who raised her? She’s a liability.

Mary’s got a penchant for gadgets, a resume packed with criminal-busting credentials, and a reckless streak that tends to land her in trouble. So when a potential recruit blazes a trail through a local bar—literally—Mary blows off league protocol and whisks the girl off to HQ. But Mary’s heat-of-the-moment rebellion endangers her family when the recruit’s father shows up; more blowtorch than human, he’s got a vendetta against the league and powerful investors to back him up.

Instead of letting Mary help, the league banishes her to a stint of camera-courting under the guise of her celebrity secret identity. But Mary’s got no intention of benching her grapple hooks; she chases her own leads through a web of secrets that threatens to unravel her history with the league.

As conspiracies pick her family apart, Mary must question everything she’s been raised to believe—and what it really means to be a hero—before her fiery enemy sets his sights on the rest of the world.

Alter Ego is a twisty superhero saga for fans of Umbrella Academy and Renegades.

A Drowning World

About A Drowning World:

​In a universe inhabited by gods, freemen, and slaves, life is especially cruel & harsh. But things only go downhill when Lauranya and her daughter Ari find themselves abandoned on a planet where the fast rising tide will force them to higher ground. The only problem; the highlands are populated with a dizzying array of nightmarish creatures.

Left for dead, Lauranya and her daughter, Ari, struggle to survive on this bleak world. Even beyond the rising tide, and carnivorous fauna, the Drowning Planet is home to dozens of former rebels; all of which would enjoy seeing them both dead.

Meanwhile, in the skies above, gods and ethereal beings battle for possession of Ari’s powers. As a necromancer, her growing abilities allow her to blur the line between life and death in ways that make her a valuable commodity, even to the gods themselves.

Drowning World is the first book in the Siren series, and the second novel from author S.R. Ruark. Known for her vivid manner of storytelling, Ruark never disappoints.

America Toons In: A History of Television Animation by David Perlmutter

About America Toons In: A History of Television Animation by David Perlmutter:

Animation has been part of television since the start of the medium but it has rarely received unbiased recognition from media scholars. More often, it has been ridiculed for supposedly poor technical quality, accused of trafficking in violence aimed at children, and neglected for indulging in vulgar behavior. These accusations are often made categorically, out of prejudice or ignorance, with little attempt to understand the importance of each program on its own terms. This book takes a serious look at the whole genre of television animation, from the early themes and practices through the evolution of the art to the present day. Examining the productions of individual studios and producers, the author establishes a means of understanding their work in new ways, at the same time discussing the ways in which the genre has often been unfairly marginalized by critics, and how, especially in recent years, producers have both challenged and embraced this “marginality” as a vital part of their work. By taking seriously something often thought to be frivolous, the book provides a framework for understanding the persistent presence of television animation in the American media–and how surprisingly influential it has been.

About Swans of Atlantis:

I love Matt.

He means the world to me.

So how do I tell him she’s killing him?

He looks at me now, grinning. I want to reach over and push away the strands of gold hair that have fallen into his face.

As soon as I start to, though, she does it for me. Always fixing. Always a step ahead of me.

That’s when he starts coughing. It rattles his whole body. She and I reach for him at the same time, but as he grabs for me, she pulls him in.

And as soon as she does, I see it:

He’s been hiding something from me.

Even now, he’s turning away, guilt on his face. Even as he’s hacking, he’s desperately trying to hide this awful secret.

Then I catch *her* watching me.

And her expression changes everything.
