HARROW'S GATE
At twenty two, Leland is excited about his foray into the adult world, as his father Franz Niva sends him on a low risk assignment to learn the family business of shipping. Along the way, his father’s right-hand man Carter Wayne keeps a close watch on Leland, and his own son Tommy, as the two friends work, and experience life together.
In the far, and exotic city of Tiquan, Leland and his friend Tommy Wayne take their liberty from the ship to explore the cobblestone streets bathed in the city’s yellow gas lamps. There, in an upscale hotel they find three very flirtatious ladies.
As Leland’s eyes meet Ella’s, the world falls hush, and two beating hearts echo with passions that will bring two warring houses together. But, there is little time to bask in spring’s young love, as a greedy and spiteful nation, Burkermuran, levels its bombs and war machine upon the ill-prepared citizens of Tiquan.
Ella, and her two friends find themselves at the mercy of vicious Burker agents, only to be rescued by Leland and Tommy. This sparks a fearful escape from the burning Tiquan, into the hinterlands of the continental interior.
Pursued from the sky and on the ground, the lovers find themselves in league with a rogue sky captain - more noted for his smuggling than his kindness. Those inexperienced youth will find themselves tested by their enemies, a mystical oracle, the desert and the Desert Ghosts that dwell there - and from the ashes of war, they will rise stronger and wiser than they ever imagined possible.
JAKE AND THE TREASURE OF SOLOMON LAKE
Jake "Facebreaker" Sharkar lives his life between the
lines of law-and-order and outright villainy. Fresh from
committing murder, he finds that his employer has a
proposition for him. Instead of paying his fee, Jake
has the opportunity to help find and share in the profits
of recovering the lost treasure of Solomon Lake.
A long journey, an unexpected accomplice, and wandering
aliens will not keep Jake from garnering glory and promised
wealth. Make no mistake, it is unwise to double-cross a
man like Jake. And, if those who thought they could double,
or triple, or even quadrupole-cross him, they have another
thing coming.
Ride through the Host Systems, as Jake, Michael, Davy and
Millicent search the galaxy for a fabled cache of alien artifacts
looted and lost hundreds of years earlier by the maverick
explorer Solomon Lake - that mythological pioneer, miner,
and wild-man, who flew by the seat of his pants and lived
a life of a libertine - After all, who doesn't want to
be a libertine?. Buckle up - it's blastoff time.
