Terribilita
Summary
Shore's debut historical fiction novel, Terribilita, is a can't-put-'er-down-'er with just the right amount of adrenaline coursing through it. “Shore captures not only the war and politics of the time period, but the romantic lens through which the characters view their world” (Kirkus Reviews) The rebel caprices of Enzo Ferrando have dire consequences. His father, the Risorgimento war hero is gunned down on his veranda. His son Lucca is forced into hiding as a deckhand on a merchant ship. Enzo himself is conscripted into the Italian army and forced to wage war on the African Horn, yet he yearns to take vengeance on his father’s killers and to reunite with his son. Set in the second half of the 19th century, Terribilita is a coming-of-age tale about family, and an examination of the redemptive power of violence. In this drum-tight historical fiction novel, listeners will encounter Bashi-Bazouk mercenaries, blackbirding pirates, Ethiopian army hordes, and historical figures of the era.

When the rising sun reveals the claw-torn bodies littered among the rocks, John Swift-Runner calls on his old friend, a vagabond gunfighter, to stand with him against the slaughter he knows will come. But as their band of misfits hunts for the creature on the burning sands of the Mojave, they stumble into a generations-old mystery that goes beyond shamanic curses and into the bloodstained pages of legend.

The Message
Summary
From the author of The Missing comes an extraordinary novella of four twisted short stories connected to the fictional town of Mecklenburg. Winford and his grandson's trout fishing lead to Hitler's last words. A Boston Marathon qualifier takes a jog in hell. An alcoholic's deep dive into depression ends with haunting implications. An orphanage destroyed by fire during a massive winter storm in 1895 leads to a soul's crossing through time and space - possessing a boy nearly 100 years later. The boy then journeys through an apocalyptic town facing the "True Believers" as the cult is confident the Rapture has begun. "Hitler's Last Words", "The Runner", "The Drunk", and - title story - "The Message" were specifically designed to rip apart your emotional heartstrings, leaning on regret, sorrow, fright, the supernatural, and the need for a second chance. "The Message" will open a door into the author's dark, imaginative, mental roller coaster, and keep you listening on until the sun cracks the horizon. "Olin Lester steps outside his accustomed horror genre and takes you on a journey with the four stories of The Message into the broad depths of the human experience. From the pain of loss to the unconditional love of a grandfather, Olin's masterful storytelling will draw you in asking for more." (Manuel Carreon, New York Times best-selling author of Simple Machines)

Butcher Block Green
Summary
"One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.” (Friedrich Nietzsche) “Bear in mind, when stowing your weapon, an artificial mind breaks down after just a few months without social stimulation. Complete sensory deprivation is something engineering has been unable to overcome. Always perform a safety check before deploying your weapon.” (Tesla, Hawkins Ballistics A.I. Maintenance and Service Handbook, 3rd Edition, page 142) Insertion into a cat brain would be easier if it wasn't accompanied by the abrupt awareness of my raw, brand-new consciousness - all senses and emotions hypersensitive as an exposed nerve. Neural conditioning kicked in, damping the overwhelming sensory input into a single, icy-electronic focal point. With the calm came orientation: I was being injected into the poor cat's unprotected cerebrum, as though I were some kind of anti-virus. As programmed, I coursed through her synapses, consuming her tiny mind like a ravenous ameba. The cat's panic was palpable, frantic. She scrambled to hide behind something, anything, as I entered her consciousness and steamrolled over her. She reacted the only way she knew how, lashing out at my intrusion with nonexistent claws and teeth.
