If you enjoy space operas and legal dramas, then you’re in for a treat this week with the next book in Judge, Jury and Executioner, The Art of Smuggling.

Vickie doesn’t like it, but she’s putting a stop to using her powers. The world is a different place for the teenage vampire when she can’t use her powers to solve minor or major problems. But with the Agency closing in on her, she realizes it’s smarter to retreat and live another day in America than be captured by the Agency. Find out how Vickie handles not using her powers in The Girl Retreats.
Another Zoo adventure releases this week with Thor! Sounds like we get to learn more about Thor as he wanders with his pack. Will he try to get back to Charles? Or will the Zoo continue to keep them apart while Thor leads the pack? Find out with this week’s release.
And if you like paranormal horror, check out the Gomers Blooded Paranormal Double Pack! I don’t know much more about it than the cover, which looks pretty frightening to me, but if you like zombies and horror, be sure to check this one out.

Opus X Snippet #3!
Opus X Snippet #3 is here!
Are you ready for the Opus X Snippet #3? I know I was when I read it! Between the first snippet, the second one, then the audio snippet, and now this 3rd snippet, I’m totally psyched for the release of this book! November 1 can’t come soon enough.
“You’re not understanding what I’m betting.” Erik patted his left shoulder. “Let’s back up, so you’ll understand. You know how I lost this arm?”
“To an angry Zitark?” called Twizzle. The pain-in-the-ass rifleman snarled and raised his hands like they were claws, lowering his voice with a hiss. “I’ll eat your spleen, human, and then I’ll feed the rest of your body to my babies once they come out of their eggs.”
Most of the people in the unit knew how Erik had lost his arm, but he didn’t doubt they wanted to mess with the new arrival a little.
As long as they kept it to jokes, he didn’t mind.
Biyu laughed, her brown eyes lit up with merriment. “We’re only on this damned moon because someone’s worried about those little reptiles getting jumpy and poking at UTC territory again like last year.” She shook her head. “Who would have thought the first aliens humanity would run into would be tiny dinosaurs with spaceships?” read more…

An Extraordinary Day for a House Elf
An Extraordinary Day for a House Elf
This is a guest post from N.D. (Nat) Roberts, a long time Kurtherian Gambit fan AND the author of the just-released book KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE.
Hello, and welcome to a day in my life as a house elf!
“House elf?” I hear you ask. “Did we slip into the Potterverse by mistake?
Don’t worry, you’re still here in the KGU. I use the term to loosely describe all the wonderful people who work behind the scenes at LMBPN to bring all those yummy books to you. You know many of them already, like Stephen Campbell, Lynne Steigler, and Kelly O’Donnell, to name a few.
My house elf-ing sometimes involves working with the different artists who produce Kurtherian-related art. Today I get to share a part of that with you all – the Bethany Anne photoshoot with Helen Diaz!
I can’t describe how excited I was to be included! On a personal note, it’s been a hard year with health. This was my chance to prove that the hard time was over, and what a way to do it! It doesn’t matter how many books I write. In my heart I’m still the person who found Bethany Anne and fell in love with her whole world. read more…

Audio Snippet for Obsidian Detective!
For the first time ever, we are giving you an AUDIO sample of an upcoming book! Woot Woot!
I literally got chills when I listened to Greg Tremblay narrate this audio snippet of Obsidian Detective the other day! I wanted to share it right away, This is soooo exciting! I already pre-ordered my audio copy. Don’t be surprised if you end up wanting to as well. 😉
Here’s the set-up:
Two Rebels whose Worlds Collide on a Planetary Level.
On the fringes of human space, a murder will light a fuse and send two different people colliding together.
She lives on Earth, where peace among the population is a given. He is on the fringe of society where authority is how much firepower you wield.
She is from the powerful, the elite. He is with the military.
Both want the truth – but is revealing the truth good for society?
This science-fiction novel features two rebels – one elite and one military – as they search for an ancient truth on a moon in a far-off system that could get them killed.
(Click the orange play button in the top left corner of the image below)
What do you think?
How do you like this snippet?
I think Dreamscape has a fantastic way of sharing their snippets.
This narrator sounds very familiar. Somehow, I feel like he’s read quite a few books to me over the past year. LOL Do you recognize his voice?
The Audio version is up for pre-order now. Go to Amazon and pre-order your copy of Obsidian Detective today! When it goes live, it will show up in your audiobook library like magic. 🙂
