Deryl isn't crazy; he's psychic. Desperate to escape the insane asylum, Deryl teleports to Kanaan, a world of telepaths who regard him as an oracle. But freedom comes at a price. The Kanaan expect their oracle to teach them to use their powers to wage war. Meanwhile, he's falling in love, but to be with her means to share his psyche, which could drive her insane. Most dangerous of all, he hasn't escaped the Call of the Master, enemy of the Kanaan, whose telepathic manipulations were why Deryl was committed in the first place. Now, the Master will forge Deryl's powers into a weapon to kill all he loves or destroy his mind trying.

Deryl's not crazy. He's psychic. And someone's trying to contact him. Deryl Stephen's uncontrollable telepathic abilities have landed him in a mental health institution, where no one believes in his powers. When intern Johusa Lawson, a student of neuro linguistic programming, comes for the summer, he uses the unique idea of accepting Deryl's reality and teaching him to work with it.

When Ron Engleson wakes up with superpowers, he's determined to do good for the city of Los Lagos. Being the first superhero in the world is hard enough-but on the border town of the Faerie and Mundane worlds? Forget gang fights and bank thieves-he's also fighting murder hornets and possessed geese. On top of that, he's adopted by the local dragon, Vern, who's under orders to train him up and keep him out of the police's way. At least there's a chance for romance with the local reporter-but does she want the man, the hero, or the story? Join Gapman as he defends his mom against sleazy exes, rescues an ill-tempered chihuahua, and faces mortal danger on the Conveyor Belt of Doom "Yes, I'm in this book, but it really is about my padawan. Enjoy." --Vern

Far too often, we expect God to show Himself in grand ways yet ignore when He makes His presence known in the day to day. Neither Deacon Steve nor Karina had dramatic conversions. Rather, God led them into deeper faith through the seemingly minor details of life: pot of rice, a habit of prayer, a frustrating flight home, or a barefooted stranger. This father-daughter team have written a delightful, quick book about finding God in the day-to-day. With thought-provoking quotes, heartwarming stories, Bible verses, passages from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and simple exercises the reader can fit into his or her daily routine, they help others recognize God's presence. Great for the casual or converting Catholic longing for something more in their relationship with God, or the "advanced" Catholic wanting light spiritual exercise.

When a friend of Sister Grace and a champion of the Faerie in the Mundane is found dead, Vern and Grace can't believe it's a suicide. As they investigate, they become entangled in a web of love, betrayal, and the worst of good intentions.

But all is not what it seems. When the Impulsive tries to rescue her from another Cyber offshoot, it quickly becomes clear that they no longer understand who - or what - she is. Trust may be the highest form of motivation, but is their love for Loreli enough to motivate them to trust her? Doall's Brain: Who does not remember ST: TOS "Spock's Brain"? Arguably the hokiest episode of the original series, it takes on a whole new life when aliens snatch Ellie Doall's brain to power their colony. From Doc Sorcha in thigh-high boots to Ellie nearly flooding the colony with her tears, it's a bringer of delight. Sugar and Spice: When surveying an ice planet in the process of thawing out, the Impulsive discovers the survivors of an expedition lost five years ago - including Lt. Misha Rosien's fianc . But what could be a happy reunion turns dark fast when Dr. Howie Maisel replaces Captain Tiberius with a robot with the intention of taking over the universe - with his sweet little Misha at his side. (Parody of ST: TOS: "What Are Little Girls Made of") Motherclucker: ST: TOS "Devil in the Dark" with chickens?

However, this is no ordinary trinket - with a little magic power, it could control all of mankind. Will Vern sacrifice the fate of two worlds for the life of his best friend?
