Accused of murder, Kristine Arrington has been condemned to death by hanging. Her salvation comes in the form of Erik Trevayne, the Demon Lord of Hawksbridge Castle, when he buys her freedom and offers to marry her. Kristine is reluctant to accept his offer, for he refuses to let her see his face, but her fear of death is stronger than her fear of the unknown.

Erik desires nothing from Kristine, nothing but a son. Cursed by a vindictive witch to slowly turn into a beast, he comes to his bride in the dark of the night, refusing to let her touch him or see him and yet, gradually, Beauty comes to care for the man who is transforming into a Beast.

Warbot 1.0: AI Goes To War by Colonel Brian Michelson, U.S. Army, Retired

A novel of the next war, and how AI will play the definitive and deciding role in victory.

Ebook countdown sale - March 18 through March 25 - sale price starts at $0.99, then over seven days gradually increases back to normal price of $4.99.

Meticulously researched, Warbot 1.0 opens a window into modern war through the eyes of the soldiers, AI and autonomous machines that fight it. The parallels in this novel to the Russian invasion of Ukraine are simply uncanny and provide an immersive first-person view into this war, and the next, through the opportunity to “be there and see the fight.”

Warbot 1.0 tells the compelling story of the 2033 Sino-American War. In 2033, China’s neighbors chafe at its heavy-handed efforts to dominate them as Taiwan teeters on the brink of declaring independence. When the newly elected president of the Philippines attempts to eject "guest" Chinese military forces from his country, China launches a high-tech punitive expedition against him as an object lesson for the other nations bordering the South China Sea. As wars often do, the conflict spreads throughout the region and quickly draws in the United States.

While the full weaponization of artificial intelligence, robotics, big data, cyber, and all forms of media will change how this conflict is fought, the nature of war remains the same: a brutal, deadly, and complicated contest of wills by the humans who have to fight it.

The Ritual by Stefan Mani, "The Dark Prince of Nordic Noir"
The Grimmson Series

FREE ebook March 10 through March 13.

Evil is at large… A member of the parliament is stabbed to death in Reykjavik, the small and usually peaceful capital of Iceland. Police officer Grímsson thinks he saw the perpetrator earlier that night, in a pub in the city´s east end. The young man turns himself in. He has no previous record and does not remember anything about the night of the murder, but his fingerprints are on the murder weapon. Grímsson feels that the young man is somehow innocent, a victim rather than a wrongdoer.

The day before the murder, Grímsson was called to a storage unit after a human skull was found there. The man who rented the unit, a known drug user and an anarchist, previously committed su***de. In the unit, Grímsson found books on black magic and hypnotism, a black mirror, black candles and a makeshift altar.

The leader of the anarchist gang is Aron Beck, a dangerous sociopath serving time in prison. When another brutal murder takes place, and another unlikely perpetrator is captured—a young woman who disappeared from a bar the night before—Grímsson begins to wonder if Aron Beck is somehow behind all this madness. But how?

The clock is ticking and yet another murder is brewing in the black cauldron of an evil mind…

Detective H. Grímsson has solved many murder cases and has captured quite a few dangerous criminals and madmen. He is intelligent, hard as nails and very resourceful. But he is also his own worst enemy. After an unfortunate shooting incident in Iceland's largest shopping mall on Christmas Eve, he is demoted to a police deputy in a small rural village in eastern Iceland. Grímsson's plan is to kick back, drink some beer and enjoy this time away from home.

When two young female hitchhikers disappear, Grímsson fears that the girls are lost in the highlands or have drowned in the merciless glacial river. But then one of the girls wanders naked into the village and dies in Grimsson's arms. Grímsson organizes a massive search for the second missing girl. Is one of the villagers responsible for the girls’ disappearance? The perpetrator could easily be a member of the rescue team looking for the missing girl.

When Grímsson finds out that foreign girls have disappeared in the area before, he realizes that he might be dealing with a devious serial killer—a real monster who hides behind an innocent and bland façade. Evil is at large.

The Number One Crime Series from Iceland
Detective H. Grímsson is no stranger to death. When he was 19, an avalanche killed his parents and younger siblings. Since then, he has faced death himself many times. To others, Grímsson appears almost as a thing out of some legend: 6’4” tall and built like a wrestler, with a permanent scowl and wiry, rust-colored hair, wearing a long black leather coat that makes him less approachable than the Creature from the Black Lagoon. But he is a city detective, and a damn good one at that, owing much to what he calls his uncanny intuition. However, that’s only half the truth of it—detective Grímsson is clairvoyant and frequently sees the grim shadow of death before it approaches. This intimacy of death has saved his skin in the past, but it is not a gift he bears lightly. When it comes to other people and his personal life, Grímsson can be as charming as a troll and as functional as a car with no steering wheel. But when it comes to solving a murder, he won’t let go…

Evil is at large, again… A young college student is found dead in his BMW on a gravel road not far from the city. He was shot at close range. Grímsson suspects that this has something to do with the nudes that the deceased had in his possession. In August, the deceased and his two college friends were at a party in a small town in western Iceland where a young girl died from a drug overdose. Is there a link?

A few days later another college student is found shot dead in his car. This second victim was also at the party. The friends of the deceased are silent as a grave but Grímsson is sure they know something but are afraid to talk to him. What he doesn’t know is that a selected group of college students have received anonymous messages from a sinister social media page called Deathbook. Deathbook is playing a dark and dangerous game. It asks the students to give it a name of a person who is making their life miserable. A few days later, the person they name is found dead. Soon after, they get another message—and only then do they realize that they are caught in an evil web they cannot get out of…
