One early Saturday morning, Luna and Ania ran down the stairs hoping to find out what little Benji was up to. “Mommy! Daddy! What is Benji doing?” called the two enthusiastic sisters as they jumped onto the couch. Mom and Dad braced for impact as two incredibly excited big sisters tumbled over cushions and pillows and finally landed between them. “Girls, be careful around mommy,” reminded Dad as he hugged his daughters. “We wouldn’t want to bump into little Benji’s house.” exclaimed Luna. “But we’re so excited to meet our new little brother!” “Can you please tell us what Benji is doing today dad?” added Ania with a huge smile on her face.

A house on a couch? Between their mom and dad? That seems like an impossible place to live. Plus, who is Benji?|

Athena, now nineteen and keen to leave the rat hole behind, has traveled all the way to Alaska in the hope of a better life up north.

Even when Athena thinks she’s found new friends and a surrogate mother to give her the support she’s never had, a dark presence still looms on the horizon. Up north is a dangerous place for a young lady alone. Something bad is coming, and Athena can feel it. Can she survive the harsh winters and even harsher life lessons that being in the icebox will throw at her?

Silver Medal Winner for Best Adult Fiction Anthology, 2021, Readers Favorite Book Awards Hollywood and Broadway are icons of the American Dream. But what happens to those who feed off that dream? Just as drug cartels have many underlings, who must get paid along the journey to the addicts, so do the characters who need to be nourished by the luminaries who make up this star-studded world above us. James Musgrave’s collection of eleven stories, in many ways, addresses the theme of “star power,” but in a way that satirizes the stereotypical “Hollywood endings” in very unique and literary ways. This collection has a remedy for the past year’s traumas caused by a worldwide pandemic.
"Entering the consciousness of a reader is the most sacred enterprise an author can have. These stories have been collected as my Zen reflection during the past year’s COVID-19 plague. This shamanistic mental state, which the Japanese term “Mushin,” or “no-mind” is close to the stream-of-consciousness technique that Henry James, Virginia Woolf, Jack Kerouac, James Joyce, and William Faulkner used to such success. However, it is also a form of channeling that defies definition. This is the mystical realm that creatives around the world know so well, and we worship at its altar every day we put fingers to keys or pen to paper. I want to thank readers who enjoy dark stories, as in this age of political correctness and what publishers often term “accessibility,” it is becoming more difficult for us authors, especially us authors who don’t make a lot of money from our work, to find an audience. I will go out on a limb and say that if the author does make a lot of money from a dark story, he/she will get marketing to back him/her up to ride the tide of money to the bank. If you ride this wave of Gustav and all the other characters in my collection, then thanks for that. It’s been a tough year for all of us. Bless you." --James Musgrave
"Superbly dark and un-put-down-able. This was a new type of work from the author, and I really felt drawn to his compilation of eleven dark stories. Each story is so engrossing, it brings you right in the middle of the story. This collection is more than just words on a page. It is a very well-written story, and I enjoyed it." Amazon.com "For a writer, getting inside the reader’s mind is the holy grail of the craft. In Valley of the Dogs, a collection of eleven dark short stories, author Jim Musgrave has invaded most of our minds and left an impression that will linger long after we close the book and stick it on our ‘to be read again someday’ shelf. If you’re looking for a good book to curl up with when the wind’s blowing outside and the sky is gunmetal gray and depressing, this is what I would prescribe." Amazon.com " Wow! Great stories, definitely dark, but also great! I enjoyed all of these stories, but some of them hit you hard, very hard. The writer is very skilled at his craft, and I can't wait to read more stories out of his wonderful imagination." Amazon.com

Humpty Dumpty was pushed... There are no accidents, and there’s a reason for everything that happens. In this novel, the unspoken truth is... It’s a dog-eat-dog world. The victim is a mesomorphic doorman. He lays stretched out on the parking lot pavement just a few yards from the nightclub where he worked. On the case is a brilliant and eccentric, media-darling-cop, Sal Messina. Sal’s investigation leads from the wealthy lairs of Manhattan to the manicured estates in the Hamptons to the PJs in Queens and places beyond. Like the immigrant communities of the Boogie Down Bronx inhabited by fierce survivors of ethnic wars. It’s a wild ride through a vast craven underbelly of society that takes its toll on both the detective’s personal and professional life. Before this case, the detective thought he had seen it all. But this time, what’s coming is way beyond the officer's range of vision. Customer reviews "A Killer Read (Literally!) This book is a wonderful, emotional roller coaster ride with an ending that ties up all loose ends and leaves the reader totally satisfied. Five stars for Mr. Blatte!" Amazon.com "There were enough twists and elements in the story to keep me engaged to keep reading, and curious about how it would end. This is a great first novel by the author."

Think you're living in an environmental dystopia? That's where the story begins and it doesn't get any less wild. At once ridiculous and chilling, rising surrealist talent Freddy F. Fonseca explores the dark, porky underbelly beneath humanity's seemingly ever-more-virtuous race toward sustainability - and the genius puppet-masters who watch our feeble bamboo-straw-buying attempts and smile, while flattening another rainforest. Oh yeah, and there's our hero. The last remaining pig on Earth just happened to be blessed with superpowers. Which he would use to avenge the extermination of his species, were he not to get tangled up in an all-too-human web of greed, lust, and indifference. The anarchic and ambitious Heart of Swine has breath-taking scope and a wry, not totally resigned smile. It incautiously pulls away the covers to reveal how half-assed humanity's efforts to clean up after itself have been. It's funny and coarse, sure, but the writer is deadly serious. The epic failures we continue to see around the world on a personal and political level are taken to frightening lengths. And reading Heart of Swine is like a Rorschach test for one's outlook on the future - although it's hard to think, especially after finishing this book, that everything's going to be just fine. Customer reviews "Really enjoyed reading Heart of swine. It's an eye-opening experience towards our contemporary society. Written in a great literary work exposing our societies vices and follies." Amazon.com "Exaggerated and yet so believable. Themes and characters are great and reflect much of the modern concerns. I particularly liked the commentary, so hard and honest. The narrative is fluid and makes me never want to stop reading it." Amazon.com

Love and War Coexist in Every Dimension: An Intriguing Fantasy Novel About an Unexpected Landing on a Different Timeline and Facing the Challenges to Get Back Home While Meeting a Soulmate “Love being the strongest thing in this Universe isn’t always a good thing. It just implies that broken hearts can break worlds.” – These words didn’t even mean a thing to Plato before stepping out of the house for a wedding feast! After an innocent day of debating with his old pupil Aristotle and drinking wine, Plato, the famous Greek philosopher, unexpectedly goes back in time through a portal where the first person he meets is Narada – a young adventurer that will assist him in his prophetic quest. Realizing this was much before his time, he tries to take in as much of this new, enchanting world as possible: from the alluring cities and rich nations, to the intriguing Gods & Giants walking the Earth. Along the way, Plato attempts to help those he meets, like the beautiful Azaes – a Goddess that will change his view on love forever. However, there is but a couple of days left on this planet before everything dies, and he desperately needs to get back to his time. To make things worse, there is evil intent on stopping him so Plato and his new friends can never deviate for long, not when nearly everyone he tries to help ends up dying right before his eyes. Can Plato stop the war that could follow if he doesn’t get back home? Or will a blossoming love in Azaes blind him to Evil’s true face? Begin your journey through time here and find out for yourself!

There was a place once where man, the perfect creation, lived and thrived as a near perfect creature. Blessed by the ‘gods’ with advanced knowledge of science, engineering, astronomy, mathematics and medicine, this early culture lived an idyllic life on a remote volcanic island in the eastern Atlantic. There they enjoyed centuries long lives and were protected by their isolation from pestilence and were nourished by food raised on rich volcanic soil. These Atlanteans became great seafaring explorers who shared their gifts of knowledge with more primitive cultures, advancing societies that would evolve into the great centers of knowledge, philosophy and science that would become Egypt, Rome, Persia, Greece and China. Legend has it that the island they called Atlantis was destroyed in a sudden cataclysmic volcanic explosion that totally exterminated all traces of that great culture. The truth be known, the eruption and explosion that wiped the island from history came slowly with seismic warnings and the people evacuated their leaders and knowledge on a great armada of ships which dispersed around the world to settle and mix with other cultures, creating advanced healthier societies. One group traveled West to a previously unexplored continent that one day would be called North America. There for hundreds of years they inbred with native tribes of hunter gatherers which then evolved into the great American Indian tribes. Modern researchers, aware of Biblical stories about patriarchal longevity that spanned multiple centuries to millennia, began researching modern pockets of extreme centurion longevity, seek a possible genetic reason, a longevity gene to create a super human. One group of Chinese scientists begin to pursue that knowledge with malevolent, evil intent. The accidental discovery of a ten thousand year old grave with fossilized human remains, a partial stone tablet with indecipherable writing, and a heavy gold and emerald inscribed ring with an ancient message on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in Montana, sets in motion events that will uncover the powerful secrets of The Atlantis Gene. Customer reviews "Pierce Roberts Does It Again! The reader will literally be sitting on the edge of his/her seat during the last fifty pages of The Atlantis Gene. When I completed the book, I found myself wanting it to continue." Amazon.com "I think The Atlantic Gene will be the script for a movie someday." Amazon.com "The Atlantis Gene is an intriguing story with a great story line. It is an easy read that will keep you locked in for the entire time you read it. I am certain that this story will someday be made into a movie. Highly recommended!" Amazon.com The Atlantis Gene is Available in Ebook and Paperback
