THE COURT-MARTIAL OF BENEDICT ARNOLD



Being a fan of alternative history stories, I found this one an extremely interesting read. But, be forewarned this is not a standard of the genre, the ending is something different. Benedict Arnold on trial for his treachery to a fledgling nation, it's a fascinating subject and well presented. Of course we have to allow history to be twisted a bit, but it's done in a way that is utterly believable. This is now one of my favorites of the genre, pick up a copy and have a good read!

THE LAST GREAT HALLOWEEN by Rootie Simms



What a fun read, meant for children... but aren't we all children sometimes? An entertaining story that tackles some of the hard issues for young teens. We experience boy/girl relations, trying to fit in, friendship struggles... but all works out in the end, maybe! Two lifelong friends plan the best Halloween party ever, from early in their childhood friendship, and begin preparations for the party. Then life gets in the way...

Grab a copy, the young teens in your life will enjoy it! The child in you may just find it a devilishly fun story as well!

MIRACLES AND CONUNDRUMS OF THE SECONDARY PLANETS by Jacob M. Appel



I love the writing of Mr. Appel, his short stories are always interesting to read and quite diverse. This small collection is no disappointment! This collection will delight your imagination with everything from aliens to resurrections with a stop or two in the land of despair on the way.

I look forward to my next foray into the imagination of Jacob Appel!
