Crater Stumble
John Parker
$0.99

Caley, a small-town sheriff, found the job much like any other small-town law enforcement officer. Crater Stumble is primarily a peaceful farming village. The town is unlike any other in one regard. It sits on an alien planet. Within the town that sits on the edge of a mysterious water-filled crater, a culture of competitive knife-tossing females has developed. Since the women outnumber the men, the competition is sharp. Caley's only problem at one time might have been the wacky inventions her sister came up with, but her creations helped in the fight to save the planet. When Caley's hometown found itself in the middle of an alien war, she had to organize and arm a community of farmers with alien weapons. What was once a serene community will become a battlefield for the residents of Crater Stumble.

Requiem
Daniel Arenson
FREE

Weredragons, men call them. Monsters. Cursed ones. People who can turn into beastly reptiles.

In an ancient world just rising from darkness, they are everywhere. Some wander the plains with clans of mammoth hunters. Others are born in riverside huts. Some live across the ocean where seafaring tribes are discovering the secrets of bronze and writing in clay. Everywhere their curse is the same–people who can grow wings, breathe fire, and take flight as dragons.

And everywhere, they are hunted. They hide in forests and caves, dispersed. Many are alone, unaware that others exist. They are shunned, afraid, dying . . . until a group of these lost souls binds together and stands tall.

A blacksmith in a world of stone tools. A mammoth hunter exiled from her tribe. A traveling juggler and a wandering warrior. An elderly druid and an outcast prince. They are weredragons. They are cursed and hunted. Together they will forge a new tribe, a home for their kind. A dawn of dragon rises. The nation of Requiem is born.
