Someone is committing random murders across Chicago—and making sure detectives Billy Harney (Aaron Paul) and Patti Harney (Krysten Ritter) are first on the crime scene. What connects the victims, and why is the killer leaving clues behind with each body? Billy and Patti are scrambling to stop the next killing when their father, Chief of Detectives Dan Harney (Beau Bridges), is kidnapped. But in their race to track him down, they uncover pieces of his past that simply can’t be true. Could their own flesh and blood be covering up a dark secret?

In The Coldest Case: A Black Book Audio Drama, homicide detective Billy Harney sends his new partner, Kate, deep undercover in a notorious Chicago drug ring. When several members of the ring soon turn up dead, Billy abruptly pulls Kate out, blowing her cover. Kate’s informant inside the gang quickly disappears. As does the ring’s black book.... When Billy can’t find the informant, he wonders if Kate is secretly harboring her, since the two grew close during Kate's weeks undercover.

The aliens silently floated down from the skies in June of 2026, hovering there at a geostationary orbit above the earth for three months. Without warning on September 3rd, 2026, they attacked. Within three months, 85% of humanity had been wiped out. And we all learned the horrible truth regarding these aliens: "You just...don't...look."

The year is 2113. A virus has annihilated fifty percent of mankind. In the aftermath, a charismatic figure rises to the fore. He's young. He's rich. He's handsome. He's resourceful. He is Constantine Jedidiah Goodfellow. And America, in her desperation, elects him president.

His Courier3.1 operation system checked out. His teleportation chambers were state of the art, and he knew they would revolutionize the world as we knew it. But in a cruel twist of timing, something draws near which threatens not only his dream, but humanity as a whole. A 'supermassive' black hole is on a collision course with the Milky Way galaxy, and there is no stopping it. Could it be that Dane was inspired to design his system for such a time as this? What do we do when we face an inescapable threat that seeks to annihilate everything we know?

When a man with power believes he's God, mankind doesn't have a prayer. When Constantine Jedidiah Goodfellow shot up through the senate, people were all-too surprised and delighted to see someone in the prime of life wanting to heal wounds, bring people together, and bring peace, so they elected him President. His aim, however, was to bring the exact opposite. The year is 2113, and Christianity is under siege. A massive virus has torn across the planet and killed off half of the world’s population and its leaders.

Sage Maddox has been turned. Determined to penetrate Nero's inner circle on an assassination mission, he has fallen prey to the sadistic Emperor's brainwashing, and time is running out. Meanwhile, Sage's father, Colonel Thomas Drexler, and Darius, the former High Vassal to Emperor Nero, prepare to unmask the totalitarian despot in a public display at the Gloriosa Revelatio. The Fifth Column man is in place, and all seems ready. However, the slightest hiccup in plans—or in fidelity—could spell certain doom for the Defiance.

Sergeant Cameron 'Jet' Shipley was only six years old when they silently descended through Earth's skies in June of 2026, annihilating 85% of us. 16 years later, Earth is a wasteland, and humanity is painfully familiar with an inescapable truth: one look into the eyes of a gorgon, and it's all over. Terror lurks around every corner, and the rules of survival are simple: stay quiet, move quickly, and don't ever look.

What if you could prevent 9/11? What if you had the power to see the future, but every glimpse you caught filled you with terror? Would you dare to intervene, even if it meant possibly even causing the very calamity you were trying to prevent? This is the dilemma facing 28-year-old meteorologist Roland Bishop from Jersey City.

Maximillian has defected. The god-king Nero has bled. And now, the High Vassal has stolen an AirGuard and sought shelter among Earth's last surviving military stronghold: The United Kingdom. But in an unthinkable twist, Colonel Thomas Drexler's son, Sage, has also switched sides, joining up with the youth organization Friends of Nero. What the Colonel doesn't know is that Sage desires to infiltrate Nero's inner circle and kill him, bringing vengeance and justice for all the Christians who have paid the ultimate price.

The creatures arrived on June 6th, 2026, by the hundreds of thousands, silently drifting down out of the sky, hovering at a geostationary orbit for three months all over the planet, taking up positions. No one knew what they wanted...why they came...or why they wouldn't just go away. And then, three months later, the unthinkable happened. They suddenly came to life, hunting us down. We called them gorgons—after the mythical creature Medusa—because their eyes had the power to paralyze us with just one look.

A new era of conversations. Real access, untold stories, and behind the scenes perspectives from those who played the game, cover it, and shape it.

Does your prayer life… uh… suck? Award-winning author Aaron Ryan brings you "God Is Not Santa": a beautiful portrait of God's love for us as contrasted to that of, hmm, another certain gift giver. Too often we can get all caught up in our Wish Lists and our wants and needs, deeply desiring the gifts more than The Giver, who gave us the greatest gift of all: His Son Jesus Christ. Part straightforward and part satirical, but never preachy, Ryan dives deep into what it takes to approach God with no conditions and no demands! After all, God is not Santa Claus!

Talisman: Nexus opens in the bleak, icy expanse of Svalbard, where Liam "Foxy" Mayfield — known as The Talisman — stands at the crossroads of personal devastation and cosmic intrigue. His sons, Joseph and Carson, have been abducted by The Zorander, a former Talisman driven by vengeance, forcing Liam into a confrontation that is as much about family as it is about fate.

Sergeant Cameron "Jet" Shipley lost everything to the gorgons. But his loss doesn't stop there. In a world rife with post-apocalyptic danger, Cameron has lost faith in the integrity of his own Command. As the truth about the gorgons and the corrupt nature of those in power is revealed, Cameron must join in an inevitable revolt against those who refuse to see the reality of the situation: power corrupts, even on the very brink of extinction.

It has been eleven years after an alien invasion wiped out 85% of humanity. Most survivors live in underground bunkers called 'Blockades' under military protection. The rest are scattered abroad, eking out an existence in the shadows, avoiding gorgons at all costs. In this new dystopian, post-apocalyptic world, four key figures emerge after the alien invasion: Rosalita Campion. Miguel Monzon. Allison Trudy. Joseph Bassett.

In the cold, echoing corridors of the starship The Origin, 14-year-old Jax Hutson clings to the only family he has left: the ghosts of his parents, lost to the monstrous banshees that ravaged Earth. As a subject in the mysterious Phoenix Experiments, Jax is supposed to find closure by connecting with the dead—but his secret, forbidden dreams hint at a deeper, more dangerous truth.

After being betrayed by the very people he once trusted, Cameron is now a renegade. There’s nothing more dangerous than a soldier with nothing left to lose. One leader’s plans are outed; the threat of nuclear annihilation is nothing to his desire for revenge. Thousands of lives hang in the balance. But Cameron’s team—the ragtag resistance—refuse to surrender. Operation Dewdrop offers hope for humanity.
