While shopping with my mother in law I met a man who, just after a couple of seconds, could tell you each character you were getting in the Lego Mystery Pack. He had his two proteges with him and they were almost as fast. He picked out six for us, and after we got home and opened them, they were all exactly what he said they would be. I feel like I had met someone incredible. A Lego Super hero.

4.5 Out of 5 Stars (404 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy | Science Fiction

FREE for a limited time

A note from the author: Spirit of Empire is a three-book series.Each book is twice as long as a standard novel, so you are getting excellent value along with a great story. The three books are written, so you do not risk investing yourself in a story that never reaches completion. Take the plunge – you will not regret it.

The story: The Empire, hundreds of thousands of civilizations scattered across the galaxy, has been subtly invaded by the Chessori, diminutive creatures wielding a powerful mind weapon. No one can resist this terrible mind weapon, and the war is lost before anyone knows it began.

Ellandra of the Chosen, the youngest and last surviving leader of the Empire, flees the Chessori. In desperation, she lands on a little-known emerging world called Earth where she is rescued by Mike Carver, an innocent bystander. In the process, he discovers that he and the people of Earth are immune to the mind weapon.

Join Mike and Ellandra on their quest to restore the Empire to its former glory. Along the way they will enlist many others, including:

-Otis, a Great Cat, the most lethal Protector in the Empire.

-Jake, a Rider, an intelligent alien mass of protoplasm. If a person could be considered a commodity, Riders would be the single most valuable commodity in the Empire. Unfortunately for Mike, Riders can only survive inside a host body.

-George, a nearly sentient artificial intelligence.

-Krys, a young woman far across the galaxy who receives unwelcome visions of the future. She hears Ellandra’s call, but she is just an orphan. What can she do?

Amanda Nathan just lost everything,  her first real boyfriend to her lifelong best friend, her half of their shared apartment in St. Louis and her first post-grad job as a receptionist.

Unemployed and alone, Amanda relishes in the one thing she has control over, Hollywood gossip. Now, her idea of fun is getting lost in the glamorous lives of others and posting nasty rumors about her former bestie’s favorite actor, Liam Brody, a playboy notorious for dumping his model girlfriends on a monthly basis.

So who would’ve thought that Liam Brody would be Amanda’s answer to escaping Merit? When the controversial womanizer needs an image boost to land a new role, he turns to none other than HDU for some good press. As it turns out, Liam is as eager to shed his playboy image as Amanda is desperate to move out of Merit. The solution to both problems? Fake a romance in which Hollywood’s biggest playboy falls for an unknown, sweet and shockingly plain Jane.

With the help of Ian, a fellow HDU moderator and self-developed expert on stardom, Amanda packs her bags for her new life in New York, where the overnight fame and glamour of being a celebrity girlfriend awaits. But Amanda soon discovers that their little ploy is a lot more emotionally complicated than she imagined. And while she finds that life works a thousand times better in her Hollywood circle, so does manipulation.

There is an old man sitting in a bed on Angel ward, telling stories. He says he has to tell someone, because he is dying. He says he doesn’t care if you believe the tales are true or not, because he is not sure that half of them ever happened at all.

Reg Weldon claims that he has seen things that would make your skin crawl. He claims a lot of things…

“I was born four seconds before the strike of midnight, on the 31st December 1900. As far as I know that makes me the last person to be born in that century. My mother, god bless her soul, she may well have been the first person to die in the century that followed, because no sooner had I taken my first breath, than she took her last.”
