To the Shores
Summary
Four years after their abandonment by the now-fallen Empire, the Commonwealth of Avalon is expanding into interstellar space and making contact with other successor states. With suspicion high on both sides, the Commonwealth and the enigmatic Wolfbane agree to hold a diplomatic meeting on Lakshmibai, a neutral world. But Lakshmibai's government hates off-worlders and, with the fall of the Empire, sees its chance to be rid of the hated intruders once and for all. While Edward Stalker is besieged in their capital city, Jasmine Yamane must lead an untested army on a race against time to save the diplomats from annihilation. And if she fails, the Battle of Lakshmibai may be the first shot in a new interstellar war.

Reality Check
Summary
None of them wanted to leave Earth. It might have been nightmarish, but it was all they knew. Gary wanted to concentrate on his exams in hopes of leaving the CityBlock and its bullies far behind.

But when the three teenagers win a competition, they find themselves taking the trip of a lifetime, a voyage to a colony world where they can see how the colonists live. Meridian is very different from the dark and dismal CityBlock, a place where they can make a new beginning. But it also houses dangers, dangers that their education on Earth didn't even begin to prepare them to face, dangers governed by the cold equations of survival. And when disaster strikes, they find themselves forced to fight for their lives - or die, alone and unloved, thousands of light years from home.

The Last Christmas: A Repairman Jack Novel
Summary
Jack is back. Wilson never said he was through with Repairman Jack. He said he was through turning in a new novel every year. He also said when a story came along that was right for Jack, he’d write it. The Last Christmas is that story.

Yep, Jack is back and, as usual, weird trouble is on his heels.

Callsign - Tripleshot
Summary
In 2011 Jeremy Robinson released a series of eight novellas deemed the Chesspocalypse. Each novella follows a single member of the Chess Team from his Jack Sigler Thrillers series. The stories take place after the events of Threshold, the third full-length novel in the series, and before the events of Ragnarok, the fourth. The novellas are all coauthored by Jeremy Robinson and one of six other fantastic authors. The Chesspocalypse novellas are designed to introduce readers to the series. If you haven't read the novels, no worries. Enjoy the ride! The stories were released in the following order: Callsign: King - Book 1 Callsign: Queen Callsign: Rook Callsign: King - Book 2 - Underworld Callsign: Bishop Callsign: Knight Callsign: Deep Blue Callsign: King - Book 3 - Blackout This collection contains the standalone Queen, Rook, and Bishop stories. Callsign: Queen At the beginning of her search for Rook, a missing Chess Team member, Zelda Baker--callsign: Queen--is redirected to Pripyat, Ukraine, a ghost town on the radioactive outskirts of Chernobyl. Intel indicates that a splinter cell of Manifold Genetics--a ruthless corporation dismantled by the Chess Team--may be operating in the area. Tasked with confirming the existence of a Manifold facility, Queen begins a recon sweep of the abandoned town in search of clues but soon finds herself fighting for her life. Something sinister lurks beneath the decaying, surreal remnants of Pripyat's never-used amusement park, and it rises up to greet Queen. In Pripyat the streets are empty, the derelict buildings crumble, but the bodies...are fresh. Callsign: Rook After a failed mission claims the lives of his five-man support team, Stan Tremblay--callsign: Rook--flees Siberia and finds himself on the secluded coast of Norway, north of the Arctic Circle. Exhausted, cut off from the outside world, and emotionally beaten from his defeat in Russia, Rook just wants to find somewhere to rest. The small coastal town of Fenris Kystby seems like the perfect place.< /p> Within hours of arriving, he discovers that the town is not as tranquil as it appears. The townspeople are mistrustful of outsiders, a pack of mysterious wolves stalks the local tundra, and two villagers have been killed by a creature that defies explanation. To make things worse, there are rumors of something sinister--something the townspeople refuse to discuss. Despite the hostility of the locals, Rook commits to stopping the creature from murdering townspeople. As the body count rises, he quickly learns that the greatest threat might walk on two legs. And when he uncovers the town's hidden past, Rook knows only one thing for certain: something is rotten in Norway. Callsign: Bishop An Iranian terrorist cell has gotten its hands on weaponized Ergot-B--a compound that causes violent hysteria, madness, and death within 24 hours--and plans to unleash the weapon in major cities around the world. Successful deployment would begin a bloodbath, as those exposed would kill everyone they encountered before succumbing to the compound's lethal effects. Erik Somers--callsign: Bishop--is called in to investigate, but his first discovery shocks him to the core. Dawoud Abbasi, the terrorist leader planning to unleash Ergot-B, is his biological father. Bishop, along with an undercover Delta operator--callsign: Joker--race across the unforgiving Iranian desert in search of the Ergot-B. Seeking answers both professional and personal, Bishop must fight against a private army, Iranian Special Forces, and men driven mad by Ergot-B. With the lives of his biological mother and countless more people in cities around the world in the balance, Bishop must call on all his strength not only to survive but to stop the man revealed as his father--even if he has to kill him.
