WHAT READERS ARE SAYING (from previous editions) “Get ready to see the classic tale reimagined as you’ve never seen it before. … transforming a children’s fairy tale into a supernatural action thriller with a Zorro-style vigilante.” A.K. Preston, author of The Gevaudan Project “A thrilling paranormal Red Riding Hood. … a well-written retelling with a twist and a much stronger Red. … would recommend it to anyone who likes paranormal thrillers or re-imagined fairy tales." C.S. Wachter, author of The Sorcerer’s Bane “Action filled novel. Journey of a teenage girl. A story of love, courage, friendship and more. The author has got it all in this book.” Jay Deb, author of The Assassin “I got sucked in from the beginning. … I was up all night reading, imagining and feeling for this poor girl … heartbreak and twists and adventure all rolled into one. … This is a book to let a young woman read to teach about inner strength and what one young girl can do against so many odds. That one action can accomplish so much. This book gets my absolute seal of approval. I could even picture this story on the big screen! Angi Burns ~Rabid Readers Book Blog “[Randall]’s unauthorized sequel to Little Red Riding Hood blends great characters with a compelling storyline and places it in the middle of a legendary premise`… a well-told story about seeking justice rather than revenge and finding a way to properly overcome evil.” Josh Olds, Life is Story “There are stories with great writing styles. Those that have amazing plots. Those that sustain your attention with every word. Ones that exceed your expectations of great lines, with a satisfying ending. Mr. [Randall] accomplished all of these aspects. I can only hope that the right person will come across The Red Rider and turn it into a movie that is sure to be a box-office hit.” Kym McNabney, Story Contributor, Childhood Regained: Stories of Hope for Asian Child Workers by Jodie Renner and Steve Hooley “Full of thrilling discoveries and heart-pounding adventure! Helena “Red” is as complex, driven, and bold as Katniss Everdeen (Hunger Games). You will be cheering for her from the start!” “This book was fantastic!!!!!!! Once I started reading I couldn't put it down. A fantastic twist on the original Red Riding Hood. Helena is my hero.” "This Red Riding Hood has far more in common with Van Helsing than the children's fairy tale and the heroine's aim puts Katniss to shame. Although taking place in 18th century France, this reminded me a bit of Buffy as well. This story is action-filled and fast-paced with interesting character interaction. Given the subject matter it does get a bit violent and at times veers into horror, but does not get overly graphic. A light romantic theme but clean, no shifter romance." "Best reworking of Red Riding Hood ever! Should be required reading for girls everywhere! ... Helena is a superhero, mistake-making, scared, and fighting on through. We need more female heroes like Helena."

Chosen for advanced training by the god of war himself, Vardak is considered a paragon amongst his people, the Scorpion Men.

Janna has been tasked with the recovery of a magical relic known as The Moon’s Eye, but she has little worldly experience to guide her.

If Cleo can keep ahead of Varsmith and find the kid’s rightful parents, the payday will be huge. The question is, can she survive long enough to collect? REVIEWS “The Thief and the Lucky Boy” is everything you could want in a novella: fantasy, mystery, tension and maybe even unexpected love. If I could jump into this fantasy world with a Leprechaun Key, I would. Rylee Jones, Booktok Review I absolutely LOVED this short novella! Kept my interest, I couldn't put it down. It's really all I thought of doing when I was at work was reading this story!! …one of my top 5 favorite authors! Without a doubt a 10/10 read! Kēla Eckenrode I really enjoyed this little novella. I read it after reading Girl of Hearts but I think it could be easily read beforehand. I love Cleo’s character. She had such a fun personality, full of sass and a big heart she tries but fails to ignore. The little boy in this story is so great too. Very realistic to how I feel children of his age would act and the love he develops for Cleo is so precious. I don’t want to give away the ending but it was definitely perfect. I cannot wait to see if we get more glimpses of this duo in the books to come. Amanda Arnold

This is the advanced readers copy. Read, enjoy and if possible review it, but try not to spoil it, at least until it comes out in August. Quinn knew books had power. The power to help a scared and angry kid escape from the world where his father died and his mother worked overtime to avoid losing their house. The power to help you forget about bullies and imagine worlds where the smart kid became a wizard rather that getting beat up. And power to make you a better person and to create lifelong friendships. Quinn didn’t know that friend and mentor, Nate, was focused on their ability to teach. But over the years he had carefully chosen books to teach Quinn about magic without ever revealing its existence because Nate held the gates shut to protect the world. Protection that ended the day that Nate died. With the knowledge of the mystical world learned from hundreds of classic books and a handful of handwritten notebooks connecting the dots and explaining what parts were real, Quinn adapted to the new magical world far faster than most. And as his knowledge and power grew, he learned to protect himself and eventually saved the entire population of New York City. That knowledge also led him to a library of hundreds of spellbooks filled with the magical knowledge of one of the most talented wizards of all time. But Quinn isn’t the only one who understands the power of books. In the growing struggle for power and survival as the world relearns that magic is real, everyone wants them. That includes the Bureau of Magical Affairs, Nate’s old wizarding order, and an old acquaintance of Nate’s who was trapped in Wonderland for five-hundred years.

Man plans, the Multiverse laughs! "Not only is this case stranger than we imagine, it's stranger than we can imagine." "Fun, fun, fun! Like the illegitimate love child of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett! "More fantasy than science-fiction, let's say, more Infinite Improbability Drive, than Warp Drive . But it's like that book about anti-gravity. You can't put it down." ———- No other detective is quite like Dr. Ziegfeld Zaggar, Quantum Detective — and that's probably for the best. Zaggar and his reluctant, obsessively linear-thinking sidekick, Jack Robbins, investigate the murder of tech genius, Roger Mason, a death they realize may lead to far more inconvenient consequences— the accelerated entropy of the Multiverse that will end in.... well the end of everything . Starting on a NYC subway train, the duo will end up traveling to some very strange places indeed. Along the way, they'll hook up with the ravishing (how could she not be?) agent from the CIA's Quantum Division, Irene Adler (who else did you expect?), interrogate a variety of unusual suspects (to say the least!), track down the elusive Mr. Anansi at the even more elusive Magic Theater — where Zaggar is a persona non grata, due to past infractions — and navigate through strange and perilous parallel universes, where it seems like something of immense power is obstructing their progress. For the Multiverse is a dirty rotten, sarcastic trickster, and that has made a certain someone a little bit crazy — and very, very angry... Note: No detectives, agents, physicists, snarks or boojums were actually harmed in the writing of this book. Jack Robbins, however, was not only embarrassed, harassed and traumatized, but he'll never be able to look at fortune cookies, his suitcase, or certain snack foods the same way again. Oh, and he may have died a little. Irene broke a nail and seems to have attained enlightenment. The Mulitverse laughed. With apologies to Douglas Adams, Dr. Who, Arthur Conan Doyle, Lewis Carroll, Hermann Hesse, Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenberg, Brian Greene, Michael Talbot, various Amazon shamans, Nootropic developers, and a host of others, not necessarily in that order. About the author: Greg Montego is a so-called "consciousness engineer" who circles the globe like an orbiting electron, so you can never know who he is and where he is at the same time. But people say he has been observed in Cern, Switzerland, New York City and surfing the big waves of Hawaii simultaneously. So what's up with that? He holds advanced degrees in Lucid Looking and Paradox Peeking from the Institute of 20/20 Hindsight, but for some inexplicable reason has never been asked to speak at, or even attend, a TED Talk, a CHARLIE CHAT or even a GARY Gab.
