A ship from Earth is coming, but it's not what they expect
Patrick and Susan have enjoyed a relatively peaceful life on the colony of Tau Ceti 2, twelve light years from Earth. However, everything changes when the starship Asimov arrives.
Asimov is unlike any other ship that has graced the Tau Ceti colony in the past, and when it announces a new project—a groundbreaking device called a "Link," designed to facilitate faster-than-light communication between the colony and Earth, eliminating the isolating twelve-year message delay—Susan volunteers to assist.
Susan discovers that the library ship, designed to house all of Earth's knowledge, was programmed to keep much of its knowledge from the colonists—information that could help grow the colony.
Forbidden knowledge and hidden truths become a problem. The forbidden knowledge, once revealed, is the key to growing the colony, but the hidden truths threaten that growth.
Many among the colonists are suspicious of Earth’s intentions. More immediately, is the other colony settlement—the Ellis Research Station two hundred miles from Grissom—supporting Earth’s plans?
Can they uncover Earth's endgame amid Asimov's vast archives, or will they become pawns in a battle that forever alters the colony’s future?

Halsey Ambrosius is the best
elemental monster-hunter in her Clan militia.
Have you ever wondered where monsters came from? Their origin has been kept a secret for centuries.
As long as Halsey and Brigham, her cousin turned mission partner, were on the hunt, you
didn’t need to wonder, or worry. Till now.
Keeping people in the dark is not so easy when supernatural things stop following the rules and the Clan Council doesn't want to accept that something is very, very wrong.
It's a full moon, the Summer Solstice, and an ancient coffin has washed up on the beaches of Moher, Ireland. Could the Mother of Monsters really have returned? It's just not possible.
Halsey's convinced it's more than mere coincidence. The Ambrosius Clan just doesn’t want to believe.
They think Halsey is losing her mind—an apparent family trait—and needs a break from
monster hunting.
Mandatory leave isn’t as much fun if it’s mandatory. Or when you're the only hunter who really knows what's going on.
But the Ambrosius Clan Council still knows that when all else fails—and all other militia operatives just aren't up to snuff—Halsey is still the best they've got. Even if everything they thought they knew about being monster-hunters is
about to change forever.
Can Halsey dig up enough evidence to prove that the elementals' ancient foe has returned to level the monstrous playing field? Or will it be too late to prepare for what's to come?

A vessel can heel to one side, but at a certain point, it will no longer balance above water—and it capsizes. This is the angle of vanishing stability.
Thea West, a Northern Californian teenager growing up in the late sixties and early seventies, is one of five daughters trying to stay afloat amid the psychologically catastrophic dynamic between her parents—a covert and commanding mother and an ocean-yachtsman father. A talented sailor and businessman, Mr. West suffers from crippling alcoholism, with frequent rages that mask his fragility. Thea longs to know how to sail, but in her world, traversing the water is a skill that belongs only to men, and she’s terrified to ask her larger-than-life father to teach her.
When her father’s demons drive him to a new low, Thea isn’t sure if she can ever learn to forgive. She strikes out from home in search of love and self, running from what she views as the problem—her father and his hold on her family.

From the ashes of a dying world, a god will rise.
As an out of shape nerd, Gabriel Rivera had more pressing issues than outlandish things like godhood: Evacuating the city, joining the military, and protecting his family. Simple right?
Everything changed when the PAC invaded.
When the grim fate of his world is revealed, Gabriel joins the Reclaimer Project to save his family. A lowly F ranker, he’s weaker than even the worst recruits. Good thing he’s too stubborn for his own good.
Through blood and sweat Gabriel aims to grow stronger and rise above the rest.
Deadly traps lurk around every corner, mysterious factions move in the shadows, and dormant powers within him manifest in wild and dangerous ways.
Battered, bruised, and beaten, Gabriel refuses to stay down. For only in the fires of The Crucible are legends forged.
Two young lovers find each other just as the Vietnam War, the Antiwar Movement, and the Black Power Movement near their explosive peaks. Excitement, danger and heartache lie ahead. It’s September 1967. Steve Harris – white, idealistic, naïve -- begins his freshman year. During that year, he will fight to end the war, fall in love, confront painful truths about his family, and be jailed and beaten by police. Through this crucible, he emerges with a transformed consciousness, of the world and of himself.
His awakening begins with a rousing antiwar speech delivered by Emma Gold, a Depression-era radical. When Emma introduces him to young Cat Crawford -- inter-racial, brilliant and exotically beautiful – his bewitching is complete. The two students’ instant friendship blossoms before long into a passionate love affair. Their bond is tested, though, by the mounting demands of the times, and by their own deep-seated psychological issues. 1968 is marked by campus unrest, urban rebellion, assassinations, and political violence that leads the two into clashes with the Chicago Police and the National Guard. The story builds to a heartrending climax during the street battles surrounding the Democratic National Convention.
This is a complex, fast-paced journey on an emotional roller coaster, punctuated by flashes of self-discovery, and bursting with political and sexual passions.
"A deftly crafted and complexly layered novel of immense passion and divisive politics that is a quite accurate portrayal of the events and issues backgrounding this emotionally dazzling story from beginning to end, "Riot: A 1960s Love Story" establishes author Charles S. Isaacs as a truly extraordinary and gifted novelist. Very highly recommended." -- Midwest Book Review
