Did I Give You Permission to Run?:

The Neon Funeral  

Psychological Horror / Thriller

In 1973, a creature known as The Shaker appeared to four psychologists in Sourville, North Carolina, and began a game entitled "The Pandemonium," in which paranormal terrors would build up and leak out into the world for 33 years. The psychologists must successfully cure 33 of the town's most demanding patients before New Year's 2007, in which a keepsake from every cured patient must be offered as tithe in a process known as the Neon Funeral, which will mark an end to the game. If the psychologists fail, the entire town will be flung into an endless psychosis known as the Neon Void.

It is 2006, and Dr. Faust, the last surviving psychologist of his era, is now tasked with fending off the massive unraveling of the townspeople's psyche while coming to terms with his failure to help his last two clients, as well as his own failing health. With a monstrous version of an irredeemable client from his past on the loose, a weary local detective may be his last serendipitous link to redemption.

** 

Detective Amanda Glass of Sourville, North Carolina has seen quite a few things on the job, Bun nothing had prepared her for this. Though she managed to deal with an incident involving psych ward patients, something seemed...off about them. Their faces were blurred, and they seemed bullet resistant.

She can't put her finger on it, but there's something going on, something dangerous. The psyches of Sourville's citizens are unraveling and nothing seems to be able to stop it.

Will Amanda be able to find out what it is and put an end to this madness? Or is it game over for all of Sourville?

Vampires have conquered the living world, eradicated human society, and rule an undead empire from their underground palace of Aeterna. No longer forced to hide in the shadows, they build a luxurious metropolis of epicurean excess, savage rituals, and royal lineages, all existing in perfect eternal harmony.

Of Aeterna's byzantine rites, the Bloodlet is the greatest: a spectacular hunt held once a century to choose which royal house will ascend the throne. But for Marcus Atreidae, the last vampire to be created before the annihilation of mankind, the Bloodlet offers a chance to explore the ruins of a dead city and learn all he can about those creatures of myth and legend: humans.

Barred from participating as punishment for his curiosity, Marcus sneaks to the surface but, when catastrophe strikes, he finds himself trapped amid the dystopian ruins with an unlikely ally -- a beautiful and fearless clone named Bo. Together, they discover a web of lies that stretches all the way to Aeterna's putrid core. Will the truth of Marcus' own mysterious past set him free? Or will it destroy an empire?

In Aeterna, Kim Bannerman weaves an astonishing tale of intrigue, betrayal, mystery and adventure. From warrior kings to soothsayers, bio-engineers to slaves, ogres to phantoms, this sweeping epic is as rich and haunting as the undead who populate the city, and sure to delight fans of fantasy and dystopian fiction.

Aeterna is in development with a Hollywood production company and is soon to be a motion picture.

The Influencer: Speed Must Have a Limit

What if we have been wrong about this world this whole time? What if only a few gifted individuals decide the fate of it? What if impossible is quite possible?

One of the prime minister’s many assistants, Aditya is no ordinary man. He is instead what some people call an Influencer. Yes! Literally! He is one of the few fortunate men who with the power of their minds can make other people agreeable and servile.

To the outside world, Aditya is just another employee on the government’s payroll. But secretly, he is part of a shadow organization called WIS. With his special abilities, Aditya helps the most powerful man in his country, the PM, to have the better end of the deal.

Life for Aditya had been smooth until one careless mistake precipitates into his wife knowing his big secret. WIS can tolerate anything but not a defector. It takes WIS some time but eventually they find out Aditya’s big goof up. It, therefore, declares war on the renegade. Aditya’s death is what they want.

What will Aditya do? How will he fight this decree of the behemoth that once nurtured him?

The Influencer is a story of a man who has never taken no for an answer. It’s a thrilling account of a single man who is facing the wrath of a powerful but dubious organization with highly-skilled, super assassins at its disposal.

Anomaly One 

What if the cure to man’s deadliest disease were discovered but then lost?

And what if finding it again could lift a species to all-new heights or threaten its ultimate extinction depending on who got to it first?

The year is 2351 A.D.

A planet in a faraway system bursting at its overpopulated seams has been forced up and into the surrounding space above. 

The result: a tangle of cities and floating empires collectively known as the Conglomerate.

An incurable disease runs rampant and afflicts many, including the princess of the most powerful empire in the Conglomerate.

But when a young man of an unfamiliar species sets out to meet her, he puts into motion a chain of events that offers a potential cure. 

He also unwittingly puts into the hands of the devious underworld the makings of a weapon capable of taking out the entire population.

Anomaly One is a look into this futuristic world—from its upper political echelon to the seedy and traitorous underbelly below—in a race to save the princess from certain death and, in the process, maybe even the civilization from being extinguished entirely.
