Return to Mars
Summary
Fasten your seatbelts for another amazing adventure from the pen of Ronald R. Van Stockum, Jr. Bringing together characters that rival the Mad Hatter, Mary Poppins, or Voldemort, the author takes us with them on a fantastic space journey. Tony, the adventurous reporter, begins quite innocently by knocking on the door of Doctor Heironymous Newton, who leads him down a farm path to an unusual barn made of orange tile blocks. With a space journey unfolding before his eyes, Tony looks askew, his way of "tricking my logical mind to observe, record, and retain data...to absorb and catalogue". Come along on a fanciful ride and meet up again with characters we know and love or love to hate in Van Stockum's previous books. As we've enjoyed before, the teacher, biologist, writer, serves up delicious science fiction along with allusions to history, literature, movies, the Bible, gender, and more. Van Stockum employs a free style that can change person or tense and sometimes offer tongue-in-cheek references to education, news media, and the status quo. It all adds up to a delightful listen. You will find yourself with an urge to jump on board the next time you're invited to "The Return to Mars". (Mary Popham)

Ever Upward
Summary
An ancient foe. A divided planet. And an impossible choice to make. The evil Nocterar was defeated, and the planet saved. But if Excelsior thinks the worst is over, he has another thing coming - quite literally! Things aren’t going well on Denab IV. And when it transpires that the link he kept with earth could destroy both planets, even some of Excelsior’s own people start doubting him. With Hodera on the march leading a deadly new army and an ancient foe rising more powerful than ever, everything both Matthew and Excelsior love is on the brink of destruction. Denab IV’s savior must make a choice. One that cuts him to the very core of his being. But time is running out, and Excelsior must hurry if he is to get the chance to throw the dice one more time.

Cosmos the Stellar Stalker
Summary
"Author of Markman's Home, Ronald R. Van Stockum, Jr., has created characters as memorable as any in the realm of magic realism. Set in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1976, the writer recounts what-ifs with spectacular scenes in a rail yard, through hidden tunnels, and in old abandoned buildings. From the beginning when a visitor from another world pops up in a downtown Louisville ad agency, until the spectacular finale, the action ratchets up at a dizzying rate. Prepare to be entertained when looking in on the making of television commercials; prepare to be titillated with descriptions of dancing girls; prepare to be amazed at the scientific descriptions, with a bit of creative physics as the author takes you along for the ride in his fertile mind. In this latest adventure, Van Stockum gives us another unique and interesting journey in to the world of 'what if?'" (Mary Popham, author of Back Home in Landing Run)
