SUMMARY:Throne of Heaven
DESCRIPTION:Purchase Here \n\n\nThere is madness spreading on the streets of Cobalt City. \nThankfully\, the city has superheroes to protect it. \nAn international consortium of tech firms is about to unveil a huge leap forward in space technology with an orbital platform and space elevator anchored just off the coast of Cobalt City. But the project isn’t without its detractors\, such as the technologically advanced nation of D’habu\, which sees the project as a global threat\, and the pernicious Sky Pirates’ frequent raids of construction deliveries. \nEnter Kara Sparx and Madjack. The thrill-seeking inventor and rebellious musician/daughter of a failed alien conqueror would be the last people to call themselves heroes. But since Stardust’s ex-wife is part of the Skyhook project and good friends with Kara\, there’s no one better to navigate the deadly line between pirates and politics. \nBut when push comes to shove\, D’habu has one more ace in its sleeve: Edirin Okoloko\, a.k.a. Knockabout\, one of the most powerful members of legendary Cobalt City team The Protectorate. If Knockabout enters the fray\, it could create an international incident that will shake the Throne of Heaven. \nThrone of Heaven is stand-alone novella of high-flying action and political intrigue from Cobalt City creator Nathan Crowder that can also be read as a piece of the puzzle in the four-part epic Mad World Cycle.

SUMMARY:Book Release: Afoul & Affairs
DESCRIPTION:Purchase Here \nPeople are messy. \nAs far as Ruby Killingsworth is concerned\, personal entanglements are far more burdensome than managing her billion-dollar entertainment empire. Up to this point\, she’s preferred to avoid them whenever possible. \nBut some things can’t always be helped … \nFrom the complexity of a long-distance romance to a rekindled fling with the handsome hero next door\, to somehow finding herself playing hostess to her lover’s super-powered niece\, Ruby has never had so many people in her life at once. \nAnd much to her own surprise\, she doesn’t even hate it. \nFollow Cobalt City’s hottest villain through six short stories as she navigates life\, love\, music\, politics\, the limits of her own power\, and the pitfalls of being publicly hero-adjacent.

SUMMARY:Book Release: Public Enemy

How do you fight an enemy you can’t see or punch? \nMeanwhile\, The Raven strikes! Now that she’s out of hiding\, Lady Vengeance has to face her greatest mistake. It will take all of her power\, her training\, and her scarred heart to survive the fight of her life. \nNot to mention the mysterious ninja girl who keeps appearing at the least opportune times… \nDon’t feed the trolls!

SUMMARY:Book Release: Warlock Rising
DESCRIPTION:Purchase Here \nThere is madness spreading on the streets of Cobalt City. \nThankfully the city has superheroes to protect it. \nWhen the Goblin Riders cycle gang and their powerful leader\, Oni\, begin to push a dangerous new street drug called Warlock\, it falls to Gato Loco’s protégé\, Caterwaul\, to put a stop to it. Because Warlock isn’t like other drugs. It’s a dangerous hallucinogenic that could lead to permanent madness. And if Caterwaul can’t stop it\, things could get seriously freaky. \nOne man cannot stop an entire gang and their superpowered leader by himself\, not even the scrappy and reckless Caterwaul. Forced by circumstance to enlist a new partner in the fight\, he reaches out to Lionfish\, another thrill-seeking cyclist who is fast enough to keep up with the action. \nBut Lionfish is more than he seems\, and Caterwaul might have just put himself and the city in more danger than he planned on. With a big shipment of Warlock about to hit the city\, does he have what it takes to stop the Goblin Riders\, Oni\, and his one-time ally at the same time? \nWarlock Rising is a stand-alone novella of gritty\, heart-pounding heroics from Cobalt City creator Nathan Crowder that can also be read as a piece of the puzzle in the four-part epic Mad World Cycle.

SUMMARY:Book Release! Battling in All Her Finery: Historical Accounts of Otherworldly Women Leaders
DESCRIPTION:Coming October 16\, 2018\, Battling in All Her Finery: Historical Accounts of Otherworldly Women Leaders! \n“I am a woman between worlds. Civilian and military. Seamstress and soldier. The Grande Armée I serve stands between tradition and merit. France itself between republic and monarchy. I stand between comfort and a wall of iron. Between progress and the world of dragons. Between grief and freedom.”\n–Blake Jessop\, “Cuirassiere” \nNo one understands leadership like those who have led. Mad Scientist Journal has brought together twenty-one tales of otherworldly women leaders. Some are born to power\, while others find the spark of power within themselves. Their leadership crosses the boundaries between the military and political world\, while also making stops in music\, the boardroom\, and civil movements. \nIncluded in this collection are stories from Elisa A. Bonnin\, L. Chan\, Nathan Crowder\, Lin Darrow\, A. J. Fitzwater\, G. Scott Huggins\, Patrick Hurley\, Blake Jessop\, Alisha A. Knaff\, Aimee Kuzenski\, Christine Lucas\, Matt Moran\, Mathew Murakami\, Jennifer R. Povey\, Jennifer Lee Rossman\, Frances Sharp\, D. A. Xiaolin Spires\, Leora Spitzer\, Priya Sridhar\, Tais Teng\, and Shirley Vogel. Includes art by Rhaega Ailani\, Errow Collins\, A. Jones\, Leigh Legler\, Justine McGreevy\, and Ariel Alian Wilson.
