DOOMSDAY PLANET

   Interplanetary Battle


DOOMSDAY PLANET
The world’s richest man just made a killer deal with an alien species; he’s sold them the human race! Astronaut Marcus Reno dies in a lunar accident, only to be resurrected by a race of benevolent time travelers to command a regiment of warriors plucked from Earth’s past. Their mission: save humanity from an invasion by the Zagan—tyrannical aliens working in cahoots with Earth’s richest man, who’s eager to leap from oligarch to god. With doomsday imminent, Reno leaps into battle with only a band of Viking berserkers, and a tenacious WW2 Soviet aviatrix at his side. Together they must assault a Zagan base hidden on a prehistoric, dinosaur-infested planet. Between the Zagans’ guns and the dinosaurs’ jaws, their chances are slim . . . but is it still a suicide mission when, technically, they’re already dead? … “Doomsday Planet is part military thriller, part time-travel epic, and all-out action. Melds gallows humor, speculative madness, and cinematic pacing into a genre fusing space adventure. Beneath the chaos is a meditation on sacrifice, and the costs of playing god.” The Prairies Book Review

 Wolf Mom Holding Wolf Baby


The Wolf Mom : Movie Script


1941. America is reeling from the attack on Pearl Harbor. Doris lives with her head in the clouds. Movies and books are her only escape from the hard truth that she’s in her 30s, has never been in love, has never had any real adventures of her own, and still lives with her cantankerous, alcoholic mother, Maggie.

Everything changes the night Harry—an old acquaintance and now a U.S. postman, shows up on her doorstep, bloodied from a wild animal attack on his mail route. Doris quickly tends to his wounds, quickly falls hard for him, then quickly loses her virginity to him that same night… totally unaware his blood is infected with wolf monster DNA.

By morning, Harry is gone, and Doris is madly in love—and suddenly very sick. Maggie rushes her to Bella, a mysterious gypsy healer, who drops a bomb: Doris isn’t just pregnant—she might give birth to a wolf baby.

Doris, Maggie, and Bella must track down Harry before the next Wolf Moon and give him a gypsy potion to stop Doris, Harry, and their baby from transforming into full-blown wolf monsters forever. A very dark comedy ...with fangs!

A Sci-Fi LitRPG Adventure

(Symphony Book 1)


Finding himself suddenly teleported to a new dimension, a former English teacher becomes the god of a world of his own making, in this portal fantasy.

Fresh off a break-up and now unemployed, veteran and former high school English teacher Walker Reed is ready to succumb to a grim and hopeless depression. But when an enigmatic stranger stops him in the street, he’s suddenly hurled into another dimension.

There, Walker gets to build his own world from scratch following the Alpha Protocol, which invites special individuals from across the universe to become “Creators”—generating everything from their own land masses and celestial bodies to a comprehensive, recorded religion.

With the help of his robotic assistant, Virgil—who happens to be a four-foot-tall squirrel—Walker sets about building out his geography, evolutionary systems, and creatures. But it’s not like playing in a sandbox, and he quickly realizes his creations can have world-ending consequences. Not to mention the creators are regularly pitted against one another in the Creator Wars . . .

As if all that weren’t bad enough, if Walker can’t complete the Alpha Protocol, he’ll be sent back to his previous reality, which has only gotten darker. As he unlocks new systems and paths, can he balance his desire to be a peaceful, benevolent, and ethical god? Or will everything devolve into chaos?

Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse (Sci-Fi Galaxy series Book 2)

Book Cover Yellow Flower with Eye in Center

Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse

(Sci-Fi Galaxy series Book 2)


🚀 New Release: Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse
From award-winning author Jeremy Clift comes a bold new entry in the Sci-Fi Galaxy series—Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse—a visionary tale of humanity on the brink and the future of life itself.

Space was meant to save us. Instead, it’s where the next war begins. And one mother’s love may be the last defense of human freedom. As Earth collapses under climate and food crises, rival powers battle for control of a lunar Seed Vault holding humanity’s last genetic hope. But the true prize lies beyond the Vault—it’s Diana, a child engineered for survival in deep space. Hunted by the ruthless Consortium that created her, Diana’s only protector is her mother, Teagan Ward, a former captive of lunar experiments. With alien alliances breaking and AIs shaping the future of evolution, Teagan flees to the Tritans—an endangered species with their own secrets.
As species clash and ideologies fracture, one truth remains: The vault is the code. The seed eclipse is the signal. The child is the key. And unanswered, the question continues: Who owns Life? In the battle for survival, what remains of humanity may not be who we were—but who we choose to become.
Exploring the ethics of genomic manipulation, the politics of AI-controlled ecosystems, and the meaning of identity in an age when memory, consciousness, and DNA can all be commodified, the novel is set in a future of ecological collapse and interstellar ambition as competing forces battle of over humankind’s last viable seed vault concealed beneath the lunar surface. As Earth’s food systems come under stress, control of the genetic blueprints for survival has become the ultimate currency. But the vault’s value goes beyond crops—it hides secrets about human genetic engineering, buried experiments, and the next phase of evolution. At the heart of the novel is Teagan Ward, a mother on the run from powerful corporations who see her genetically enhanced daughter not as a child—but as a biological asset. Caught between rogue AIs, alien factions, and biotech conglomerates, Teagan must outmaneuver those who would rewrite humanity's genetic future in their image. Space Vault: The Seed Eclipse is a thought-provoking sci-fi thriller about who owns life, what makes us human, and how far we’ll go to protect the next generation.

The Revenant's Mark

  Stern Looking Man on Greenish Blue back ground


The Revenant's Mark


A dark historical fantasy novel set during the American Revolution

Jacob Hawthorne was hanged as a traitor—forgotten by the cause he fought for, buried in a shallow grave by those he fought against. But death didn’t keep him. The forest brought him back.

Now bound to an ancient and wild power, Jacob walks again as a revenant—something more than man, less than myth. Haunted by visions and a mysterious mark burned beneath his ribs, he joins two rebel soldiers on a perilous journey through war-torn colonies and spirit-haunted woods.

As the Revolutionary War rages, a secret faction known as the Golden Circle seeks to harness the power of the forest spirits for their own ends—twisting the old magicks into a weapon neither crown nor colony can stop. Jacob must reckon with what he’s become, what he was brought back to do, and whether the soul of a dead man can still choose the right side.

Epic in scope and grounded in grit, The Revenant’s Mark blends dark Americana, supernatural horror, and historical fiction into a haunting tale of war, identity, and the ancient forces buried in the soil of a still-fighting land.

Perfect for fans of Robert McCammon’s Speaks the Nightbird, HBO’s The Revenant, and the eerie mythos of The Witch.
