Betrayed. Hunted. Left for dead. But death itself cannot keep the last ranger from vengeance.

Leiyn “Firebrand” is no stranger to a fight. A brash ranger of the Titan Wilds, she takes up her bow to ward off the titans, colossal spirits always threatening the colonies she has sworn to protect.

But no amount of skill can guard against treachery.

When tragedy strikes the rangers’ lodge, Leiyn vows to avenge the fallen. To succeed, she must embrace a power within her she has long denied.

Power to move mountains and rivers. Power over life and death.

She did not choose this path, but Leiyn knows her duty. Should she fail, the legacy of the rangers will die with her—and all the Titan Wilds shall fall into shadow.

It’s no easy tour of duty for Lt. Nova Whiteside when her interstellar transport is taken by pirates and she is then tagged for termination. Could it have something to do with the mysterious alien they were transporting? Having gone from merely MIA to technically AWOL, any chance of escape leaves her no choice but to rely on Sethran Kada, a former lover, for help.

Unfortunately, she realizes that they are now on opposite sides of an escalating war between the Commonwealth Union of Planets and an increasingly dangerous rebel organization.

In trying to find who is threatening her life, they discover a plot to destroy a distant planet – a world inhabited by creatures that are the key to Nova’s survival – and a conspiracy that threatens the stability of the Union Commonwealth.

Can Nova go beyond her strict military training to cooperate with people whom she is sworn to destroy?

“The characterizations are solid, the writing is crisp and fluid, and all of the questions posed within the story are answered. Reher is a great storyteller, and you know they know this from the confidence exhibited in the book.”

“What a fascinating imagination Chris Reher has! … descriptions of all the other worldly beings was a fun mind exercise along with rather exciting adventures. Read it! It is worth the time!”

From the author of the best-selling Jane Yellowrock and Soulwood fantasy series comes a tough new SciFi heroine who is far more than she seems.

After the Final War, after the appearance of the Bug Aliens and their enforced peace, Shining Smith is still alive, still doing business from the old junkyard bequeathed to her by her father. But Shining is no longer human, and the junkyard is no longer just a scrapyard, but a place full of secrets that she has guarded for years.

This life she has built, while empty, is predictable and safe. Until the only friend left from her previous life shows up, dead, in the back of a scrapped Tesla warplane, a note clutched in his fingers, a note warning her of a coming attack.

Someone knows who she is. Someone knows what she is guarding. Will she be able to protect the junkyard and its secrets? Will she be able to stop the coming attack without the recon satellites overhead discovering what is hidden on the barren land? Or is the life she has built for herself over? Will she have to destroy everything she loves to keep her secrets out of the wrong hands?

Some spirits demand justice. Others demand blood.

Tanya is not herself. The nightmares. The unexplained odors.
The voice that sometimes sounds like someone else.

When Ellen and Sue realize their friend may be spiritually attached to something beyond their understanding, they follow its trail to New Orleans—where faith, folklore, and history intertwine in the shadow of one of the city’s most infamous houses.

The Lalaurie Mansion.

There, guided by the careful wisdom of a Voodoo priestess, they begin to uncover the truth behind a long-buried injustice—one tied to Madame Delphine Lalaurie’s documented cruelty and a child whose remains were never properly laid to rest.

But this is not a story about superstition.

It is a story about reckoning.

As the women sift through hidden diaries, fragile bones, and whispered legends, they learn that not every spirit seeks revenge. Some seek acknowledgment. Some seek dignity. Some seek release.

And unless they can uncover the truth with respect and compassion, Tanya may remain tethered to a past that refuses to heal.
