The sequel to Losers, Inc. Twelve-year-old Julius Zimmerman is the former vice president of the defunct organization Losers, Inc. Ethan Winfield, the former president, no longer feels like a loser. But Julius still does, maybe because his mother thinks of him that way. To "improve" him, Mrs. Zimmerman signs Julius up for a summer course in intensive French and for a part-time job baby-sitting three-year-old Edison Blue. She also sets a summer reading goal for him. Julius doesn't ace the French class and doesn't do the required reading, but he does turn out to have a winning way with kids -- and adults -- and in the end proves to his mother that her criteria for success aren't the only ones.

Her strong, robust, athletic husband, Dr. Julius Gater, is in the hospital! -- comatose, suffering from a stroke, broken bones ... Dr. "J" IS DYING!! A car accident that morning has left her husband unconscious, though still alive and hanging on for dear life! ..And it had been a good life -- full of sunshine! Why this! .. Dear GOD! ... Why this?! She knows she must get to him -- and fast! They had come through too much together. If she gets to the hospital in time, they will come through this awful thing too But she needs all her resources now. In her inner spirit, she petitions her God for mercy and compassion and strength to bring Dr. 'J" back from near death. Next, over time, she contacts her family and friends for their positive thoughts and prayers. She begins her long hard journey to "BRING BACK SUMMERTIME." Thus begins the remarkable true story of one woman's courage and faith in the face of the bitterest of odds, and one man's miraculous recovery despite doctor's dire predictions. Family, and friends, new and old gather round to offer support, faith and love, as the Gaters' begin their trek back to a normal life.

BRING BACK SUMMERTIME is a soul searching story of a family's struggle for the restoration of physical strength, grace and human dignity. A story that portrays the power and strength of human bonding, prayer and the belief in the power of god to sustain and revive.

True Love Never Bleeds is a fast-paced, multilayered thriller, with a love story fraught with contradictions and potential for betrayal. With the background of the election of a Fascist president in the United States, old enemies attack Peter Binder and his lover, Maria Davidoff, on the shore of a frozen, Canadian lake. Peter, a geological explorer and troubled former SEAL, and Maria, a former Russian spy once tasked with Peter’s murder, survive the attack. Investigators discover a listening device in Peter’s cabin. Who has been listening to the conversations in the cabin? And why? Using old accusations of murder, from when Peter served in Afghanistan, the CIA holds him to a contract. Alden Sage, advisor to the former president, brings release, but with a cost – one last job. Russian interests work with North Korea to fast-track development of Cerro Nublado, a highly controversial copper deposit in Peru. Alden suspects a hidden agenda, and a secret at Cerro Nublado that may threaten the safety and security of the entire free world. Alden tasks Peter with discovering that secret, but Maria angrily insists he must stay away from Peru. Will Peter survive the multiple and vicious attacks on his way to Peru and Cerro Nublado? Will he survive El Come Huevos, The Egg Eater, who tortures his victims before he kills them? Do the rocks of Cerro Nublado really hide a dangerous secret in plain sight? Even if Peter survives the hidden Russian agendas, relentless attacks, and the world of the Fascist president, can he survive his love for Maria? In the end, he must search in the jungle, for the truth at Cerro Nublado, and he must search in his heart, for the truth that is Maria.

Dale Bennett's best friend, Jill Franklin, is a psychic. At least, that's the only way Dale can explain her apparent premonitions. Whenever they enter a new town, Jill not only knows where the best weapons and items are sold, but how much they cost and what kind of weapon they need for the inevitable boss battle that always follows. If they are trying to solve a new puzzle no one in their party has run into before, Jill instantly knows how to complete it, and in good time, too. Yet Jill's apparent psychic powers are put to the test when Dale's hometown vanishes into thin air without warning, forcing her to reveal the truth: She, Dale, and their friends are characters in a video game, a game Jill has played through so many times that she has memorized everything, from the locations of secret items to helpful glitches that make beating the game so much easier. But now a new glitch has infected the game and Jill doesn't know what caused it, forcing her, Dale, and the other members of their party to go on a quest to find out what caused this glitch and how to fix it. Yet as the glitch consumes more and more of their world, it may be too late for Dale and his friends to save everyone and everything they know and love from its destructive reach.

The most recent three novels in Anthony Riches' thrilling EMPIRE series, including The Emperor's Blood, Thunder of the Gods, Altar of Blood, now available in one page-turning collection. The Emperor's Blood (VII) Centurion Marcus Aquila is back in Rome, hunting the men who destroyed his family. But the urge to exact his own brutal justice upon the shadowy cabal of assassins who butchered his family means that he must face them on their own ground, risking his own death at their hands. A senator, a gang boss, a praetorian officer and, deadliest of all, champion gladiator Mortiferum - the Death Bringer - lie in wait. Thunder of the Gods (VIII) With Rome no longer safe, Marcus and his Tungrian legion are ordered east to the desolate border lands where Rome and Parthia have vied for supremacy for centuries. Ordered to relieve the siege of an isolated fortress, their task is doomed to bloody failure unless they can turn the disaffected Third Legion into a fighting force capable of resisting the terrifying Parthian cataphracts. And Marcus must travel to the enemy capital Ctesiphon on a desperate mission, the only man who can persuade the King of Kings to halt a war that threatens the humiliation of the empire and the slaughter of his friends. Altar of Blood (IX) Ordered to cross the river Rhenus into barbarian Germany and capture a tribal priestess who may be the most dangerous person on the empire's northern border, the Tungrians are soon subject to the machinations of an old enemy who will stop at nothing to sabotage their plans before they have even set foot on the river's eastern bank.
