Dissatisfied with the slow plodding investigative work of the police, Arnold Dirkson strikes out on his own to be proactive in crime stopping as a very dangerous PI in the WWII era. With the right friends, the love of a pretty writer, even the arrival of the FBI when he most needed them, he makes a difference. Whether the Fates or God, someone should reward him for his efforts, tilting at windmills. We wish him luck. He will need it. Enjoy! #TheStoryteller

You have heard about the huge snake hunts in the swamps of Florida. As a contest, it has been successful... to a point… Hundreds of female snakes lay more than a hundred eggs a year. Hunters kill a thousand snakes each year. It is a no-win situation. And now, the Louisiana Bayous face a similar problem with the Rougarou, a kind of werewolf that works 24-7 and does not care about the moon. It can replicate itself with any clumsy hunter in moments. But then, for some, that is the adventure in itself, is it not? Enjoy, but hang on for a wild ride! #TheStoryteller

I am a hard-nosed, experienced Detective First. I have solved some of the most viscious murders you can imagine. But something changed. Suddenly the recently dead reached out to me, handing me what I needed to solve cases. However, that is not easy. How do I explain that I discovered the name of the killer from a ghost? As if a key had turned, I loosened up, found the lover I was missing, and then, even more surprising, she soon had the same skill. Not sure how that happened, but we welcomed it. The trick was somehow masking that ability while benefitting with it. We got very good at it, ...

. No one wanted to be the last man… or woman… standing. The human’s domination was over. In the late twenty second century, Cyborgs had come to life, literally. From simple robots, run by programmed computers, filled with Artificial Intelligence features, scientists tried to outdo one another in the race to build a sentient robot. Now, they had succeeded far beyond their own limited imaginations. Cyborgs. The things looked human, they spoke like humans, they acted like humans, dressed like humans, and sure enough, they soon began to control every facet of human living… and began ...

Earth, a mere spot in design of the universe, was gone. It was tragic, but it was inevitable. Thank God so many got out before it happened. The powers that be hunted fiercely for anything remotely earth-like, something they could actually reach. Elysium I, one of four lookalike planets, orbiting a close blue dwarf, soon held a million people. And, of course, when that many people crowd a small planet, you can expect all the negatives to surface... If they are not careful, Elysium I might not be a haven, after all. An unlikely pairing has our heroes working feverishly to solve the problems. ...

Everyone dreams of sailing the galaxies and beyond, seeking that home for humans, for when Earth runs out of time. There are people working on it in this era, and this story is merely a few hundred lightyears out. Murphy's Law precedes that of the technical Engineers, everywhere.

But several trillion miles from home, the choices to survive them are limited. The Intrepid finds a potential harbor, a port to put into, just as most of the systems aboard seem...

During the era of the Cold War, young men and women, some of them our best talent, educated, determined and fearless, were sent to live among the eastern bloc.

Run quickly... or die. Choose wisely." A good ride featuring the four H's...

I've been repeatedly asked how it came about. High Country Terror- Chicago Fury had a startten years back, a start that made Marcy Frame famous enough, but drove her toDenver. The vignettes are a little too true, for I, or my friends and partners, lived these stories. This book is dedicated to those who made it, those who did not, and thosethat have moved on. Not all of us are still here. I hope that those who are canremember the events in a cop's life... Others can learn from them... From #TheStoryteller, G. Weldon Tucker

True, a 'Shifter's work is never done...

This is a tongue in cheek tale of a highly romantic but very illogical song written forty plus years ago, Seven Spanish Angels. Perhaps if we look over the players, one will go with God, and perhaps, one will not. But the song relays the wrong message. Tragic, but the west and Mexico were full of this dichotomy. Enjoy! #TheStoryteller

The childless couple, with big hearts and open arms, felt a kinship to the Cherokee children in the nearby mission. As time and space on their small ranch allowed, they adopted many. But then, it got crowded. The Longarms moved to an abandoned monster of a ranch, and kept adding. But that ranch held several threats. The Grays, who the Cherokee called gray men, were insistent in taking the land over or killing the family off. Even well after the war. The Bluecoats oddly enough, were doing the same. Bandits were the wildcards. However, Robert Longman raised his 'children' Cherokee white and ...

But it required love, sacrifice and a new awakening to make it happen... Another chilling tale from the DarkSide Western novels by the #TheStoryteller.

Scarlett's mother raised a good girl, telling her things she needed to know to survive this world. The most important was simply, “Never let them kiss you. Never let them love you. It will end in disaster.” Carrying that target imagined on every female freshman’s butt, she managed to waltz through the first year at the University of Georgia in Atlanta unscathed, then the second, and for some reason, people believed she might be an Ice Queen. Delightful to look at, impossible to hold. They had no idea how right they were…
