After a four-year stint in the Marine Corps, Scott Pritchard should have left government service. The dreams were getting worse. But he talked himself into applying for top-secret security assignments. Finally off the active duty rosters, his head was crowded, jam-packed tighter than sardines in a can, and he was sure the monsters were coming for him. Some people called him an insane son of a bitch; he knew he was just unfocused. And now the military wanted him for a special assignment. R&D had blown open the inner gates of hell, and it was up to Scott to close them. He could've told them the monsters were coming for him.

Slipstream

Hewitt, Doug

There are no clocks in the Well, no day or night. If you wake up, you weren't dead yet.  On a far-flung planet, men and women pay the penalty for their Earthside crimes. Petty theft or assault, it's all the same, their bodies and minds are forfeit. Used as hosts in a never-ending war against hostile aliens, they are given a cybernetic Assist--an interface that links them to the dead whose personalities, skills, and knowledge have been eternally preserved. Everything that belongs to the prisoners--their bodies, their wills, their thoughts--is subjugated by these Assists. But without them, the prisoners are helpless, unskilled, uneducated cannon fodder on a deadly battlefield. Brian Laris is one of these prisoners. He craves an end to the fighting, the suffering, the war. He has one chance to escape the hell that is the Well, but it comes from a totally unexpected quarter, the Assist in his head.

Bounty's Stepchild

Justin Stanchfield

Konowa, Oklahoma holds many secrets. In the wilderness countryside, Pagan dances, bestial shadows around a bonfire, and the primal howls of man and wolf send the pious and decent hurrying for the safety of their homesteads. Mysterious deaths abound in Konowa; young people seduced to the alluring fires, hewn down unnaturally by a ruthless killer. There is an old evil at work here, but is it werewolves, or werewolf hunters? Based on a true story, this is the tale of Katherine Cross. Born in 1899 and died in 1917, her tombstone reads "Murdered by Human Wolves." Includes bonus material: "On the Trail of Werewolves: An Interview with Mary Franklin, Paranormal Researcher" a chilling essay of Franklin's research at Konowa cemetery where Katherine Cross' tombstone can be found. If asked five years ago, Mary Franklin would have said she didn’t believe in werewolves. Ask her today and her answer is somewhat different.
