About the book
Mags has earned his place as a Herald—but staying in Haven may cost him everything.
After being kidnapped and nearly killed, Mags returns to the Collegium with more questions than answers. But even among allies, danger seems to follow him. The heads of the Collegia fear his presence puts everyone at risk, so a new plan is made: disappear.

Bastion concludes the Collegium Chronicles with mystery, magic, and revelations that will reshape everything Mags thought he knew—about himself, his past, and his purpose.

Jammer Davis has investigated many aircraft crashes— but never one with his daughter on board
Jammer Davis has spent most of his life investigating aircraft accidents. When a small regional jet disappears over the jungles of Colombia, it is a tragedy like dozens of others he has seen… but for one terrible detail— his young daughter, who was en route to a semester abroad in South America, is listed on the passenger manifest.
A distraught Davis rushes to Bogota and bulls his way into the inquiry. When the wreckage is located, it becomes clear the crash was unsurvivable. As the investigation gains momentum, the facts go astray. Two pilots had been shot before the crash, along with one passenger. The possibility of a hijacking looms large as the search begins to focus on two passengers who boarded the plane, yet their remains cannot be found.
Davis uncovers an even more sinister plot behind the entire disaster— one that goes to the highest levels of the United States government. But how could it possibly involve his daughter?

About the book
The first three volumes of the bestselling detective series set in the twenty-second century by the legendary actor who played Captain Kirk on Star Trek
In the twenty-second century, mankind has expanded the horizons of science and technology. But some want to go farther. Tek takes them there. It's a bio-digital microchip more powerful and mind-altering than any other drug ever known. For those who become addicted, it's out of this world . . . and straight into hell. And only one man can stop it.
TekWar: Four years ago, Greater Los Angeles lawman Jake Cardigan was framed for dealing Tek, losing his badge, his good name, and his freedom. When he's released from cryo-prison early, his search for answers takes him to Mexico, where a rogue scientist is attempting to rid the world of Tek. Aiding this quest is the right thing to do, but for an ex-con, doing good can be the most dangerous decision of all.
TekLords: After taking down a powerful Tek cartel, Cardigan finds himself targeted by assassins and stonewalled by authorities who refuse to see the looming danger of a lethal computer virus that threatens not only technology, but humanity as well. An evil mastermind has learned how to make innocent civilians obey his commands, and he will sacrifice an army of zombie killers if it means getting a clean shot at Cardigan.
TekLab: A brutal murder on the streets of Paris appears to be but one of a string of killings around the world connected to the Brazilian wars of the past decade. But Cardigan soon discovers that the true motive behind the slayings isn't war but profit for the drug kingpins known as TekLords. As international peace hangs in the balance, he must stop the bloodshed before his old nemeses can exact the ultimate revenge.

About the book
Private investigator Harry Angel wakes up handcuffed to a corpse and accused of murder. The real problem? He doesn't even know who he is.
Framed for a string of brutal killings, Harry must escape custody and piece together a shattered identity that leads from the smoky streets of 1950s New York to the hidden catacombs of the Vatican. His target is a slippery stage magician. His path spirals into the occult. And his endgame is vengeance on the devil himself.
As memory returns, so does horror. What Harry uncovers is far more terrifying than murder. It is metaphysical, mythic, and personal.
Angel's Inferno is a surreal blend of noir mystery and supernatural thriller. The past is a puzzle, and every answer drags him closer to hell.

About the book
Crystal Hefner was twenty-one when she stepped into the Playboy mansion and into a world of glamour, control, and illusion. Handpicked by Hugh Hefner to be his “number one girlfriend,” she lived among chandeliers and camera flashes—but behind the scenes, her life was micromanaged, her identity erased, and her worth constantly questioned.
In Only Say Good Things, Crystal tells the truth behind the legend. With candor and clarity, she reveals the misogyny, manipulation, and quiet desperation that shaped her young adulthood—and the long road she took to reclaim her voice.
Part memoir, part reckoning, this is a bold look inside a world built on fantasy, and a powerful story of survival, self-discovery, and the courage to define yourself on your own terms.
