The Successor

About The Successor

THE SUCCESSOR AND OTHER ODD STORIES, the latest offering from award-winning author Carlos Rubio, proves once again that he possesses a wide range of narrative scope. In this volume he has gone beyond historical fiction (Forgotten Objects), romantic fiction (Italian Tilt), satirical fiction (The Neophyte), to take a new direction. Each of the ten stories in this collection, all told in the first person, contains an element of the unexplainable, and every one captures the interest of the reader from the opening sentence. Echoes of Teotihuacán, one of the stories, was nominated for the Pushcart Prize in 2022.

The Ship of State: Book One by Richard P. Ley

The Ship of State: Book One by Richard P. Ley

Can the president, a conservative ex-business executive with no political experience, navigate the shark-infested waters of Washington, DC?

President Donald Burlington’s party doesn’t support him, his wife of 23 years has just filed for divorce, and his country is falling apart from within. Both parties and the entire political establishment are eager to take him down because he is trying to eliminate the way the Federal government caters to special interests and emboldens entrenched career politicians to gain and maintain their political power.

Meanwhile, his trusted assistant, Nicole, grows concerned by the president’s fascination with an international film star. Little does he know that the love of his life might be closer than he imagines.

While trying to lead the nation and the free world, President Burlington must deal with contentious policy issues, foreign crises, terrorism, political enemies, and his own personal issues. He’s dedicated to keeping his campaign promises, and he’s not going to go down without a fight, but the water is murky and sharks bite.

Featuring interesting characters and providing conservative solutions to real issues facing us today, this believable political fiction is what the world needs right now. If you enjoyed the movie, The American President or the hit TV series, The West Wing, you’ll love The Ship of State.

*Note: The original title, Escape from Serfdom, was published in 2014, well before Donald Trump hit the national political stage, and has been “bigly” revised and expanded into books one and two of The Ship of State series.

Tales of American Idiocy by P.R. Infidel

About Featured Book: Tales of American Idiocy by P.R. Infidel

“Soon the humans will all wear muzzles and be chained to their homes by their great glowing boxes!”

This announcement by Chester stopped the meeting of the pets of Sunnyside Street cold. Not that they were surprised by the neighborhood conspiracy cat. Chester was full of odd ideas, most of which he announced at inopportune moments.

Chester would turn out to be right about COVID, but he is just one of many Orwellian critters and supernatural shorts populating these Tales of American Idiocy, a darkly humorous collection of short stories commemorating the early 2020’s. Here you’ll find President Brandon’s sketch election. Dwight the alligator will fight forced COVID injections. Delilah the deer’s own “Dr. Foxi,” gets his just deserts, and Black Lizards definitely Matter.

Will Chester and friends’ warnings make repeating the early 2020s unthinkable?

If you like clever allegories, not-so-crazy conspiracies’, and darkly humorous satire, you’ll love Tales of American idiocy, a work Bookviral calls: “A cuttingly Allegorical Read!”
