Meet Murta, Enoch, Jezna, and Prince.

They are a mercenary, a swashbuckler, a knight, and a treasure hunter. Each was recruited to train with the Brotherhood and become the newest Navigational Squadron and to follow in the fabled footsteps of the Leviathan and other storied navigators of Squadrons past.

But this isn’t the best time to be joining the Brotherhood. It’s hard in the best of times to be the neutral group in the middle, but with the Perpetual War starting to boil up again, the tension rising between the Noda and the Government, and rumors that the Jackals have resurfaced, there’s no room in the middle.

Now Murta, Enoch, Jezna, and Prince have to find themselves and the Tintagen Talismans, and confront their own pasts and innermost secrets while contending with factions both within and without the Brotherhood.

And the fate of the world of Archengard rests on whether they can, in fact, become navigators you can trust.

Patrick Fitzgerald developed a passion for fantasy books at an early age and graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana- Champaign with a major in creative writing.

La Cachette, Louisiana, is the worst place to be if you have something to hide.

This tiny town, where seventeen-year-old Grey spends her summers, is the self-proclaimed Psychic Capital of the World—and the place where Elora Pellerin, Grey’s best friend, disappeared six months earlier.

Grey can’t believe that Elora vanished into thin air any more than she can believe that nobody in a town full of psychics knows what happened. But as she digs into the night that Elora went missing, she begins to realize that everybody in town is hiding something—her grandmother Honey; her childhood crush Hart; and even her late mother, whose secrets continue to call to Grey from beyond the grave.

When a mysterious stranger emerges from the bayou—a stormy-eyed boy with links to Elora and the town’s bloody history—Grey realizes that La Cachette’s past is far more present and dangerous than she’d ever understood. Suddenly, she doesn’t know who she can trust. In a town where secrets lurk just below the surface, and where a murderer is on the loose, nobody can be presumed innocent—and La Cachette’s dark and shallow lies may just rip the town apart.

* “Dreamy prose conjures a mythical Southern Gothic atmosphere, mixing violence with a Byronic characterization of Elora’s stepbrother Hart. Taut pacing builds sustained terror on the page with each successive suspect in this formidable debut.” Publishers Weekly, starred review

Haunting and arresting, this is one stunning debut. Ginny Myers Sain has written a totally engrossing small-town mystery about what happens when you finally dig up long-buried secrets.” —Jessica Goodman, New York Times bestselling author of They’ll Never Catch Us

Enchanting and chilling at once, you’ll instantly get sucked into this atmospheric tale of kindred spirits brimming with secrets that could tear them apart. Ginny Myers Sain’s haunting, lush, lyrical prose will keep you captivated till the end.” —Diana Urban, author of All Your Twisted Secrets

The Bad News Dads are a recreational baseball team in Los Angeles—a terrible one, made up of a bunch of 40-something dads, several of them of the stay-at-home variety. Tired of the constant grind of packing lunches and coordinating school pick-ups, the team’s catcher, Ben, is looking for some action. When a teammate’s wife dies tragically, Ben and his two closest friends decide that something fishy has happened, and they blithely take it upon themselves to solve what they’re sure is a murder. But can they fall down the dark rabbit hole of a murder investigation without ruining their home lives? Without ruining their friendships? And without getting killed themselves?

Adam Frost was born in Vancouver, Canada. He is a writer, actor, and director known for Castle (2009), Extreme Movie (2008) and Tribal (2020).

WHEN THE STONES SPEAK de Doron Spielman

This is the untold story of the rediscovery of the ancient City of David in Jerusalem and the powerful evidence that proves the Jewish people’s historical and indigenous connection to the Holy Land.

WHEN THE STONES SPEAK:
The Remarkable Discovery of the City of David and What Israel’s Enemies Don’t Want You To Know

Since the founding of Israel in 1948, the Jewish people have faced nine wars against multiple enemies. Yet, beyond the physical conflicts, a deeper ideological battle has been waged against Israel and the Jewish people. This war, crafted by certain Arab leaders and echoed by international organizations like the United Nations, seeks to erase the Jewish people’s ancestral ties to the land, casting them as outsiders, imposters, and “settlers.”

One thing, however, stands in the way of the denialists: the 3,800-year history of the City of David, a site lying just south of the Old City. Archeologists at the site are unearthing evidence that proves the Jewish people’s origin story in the land for over three millennia. Every shovel of dirt reveals that while others may claim to be indigenous to Jerusalem, the Jewish people are, in fact, more indigenous to the Land of Israel than perhaps any other group living anywhere in the world.

This is the timely story of those who transformed City of David from a neglected hilltop village into one of the most important archeological heritage sites in the world, while facing powerful global institutions and terror groups that would do almost anything to keep this truth hidden. Highly relevant to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, this book foreshadows the events and historical denialism that unfolded with Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

Born and educated in the United States, Doron Spielman moved to Israel in 2000, where he serves as an international spokesperson in the Israel Defense Forces Reserves with the rank of Major. For over two decades, he has worked to transform the City of David into one of the world’s most significant archaeological and historical sites. He is a graduate of the Churchill National Security Program, a Senior Fellow at the Herut Center in Jerusalem, and a graduate of the University of Michigan.
