Short Description of Books, Short Stories, and Poems:

Books:

• WebMage: A fantasy-cyberpunk hybrid that revolves around Ravirn, a grandson of the Greek Fate Lachesis. In order to keep up with an ever increasing number of life threads, the Fates have upgraded to a computerized system that blends magic with programming. Of course where there are computers, there are also hackers. In the process of "testing" his Great-Aunt Atropos's security, Ravirn, a hacker/sorcerer, and his laptop familiar, Melchior, uncover a plot that could shake the foundations of Olympus and change humanity's relationship with Fate forever.
  

  WebMage has been receiving excellent reviews from such diverse sources as Publishers Weekly, where it was starred, SFRevu.com, Fresh Fiction, Alternative Worlds, Romantic Times, and most recently prominent author, Mel Odom.

• CyberMancy: If it looks too easy, it probably is. The sequel to WebMage sends Ravirn and Melchior on a mission to Hell and back to rescue Cerice's familiar and her dissertation. CyberMancy also sees Ravirn learning what it means to be the Raven and coping with his new status among the descendants of the Titan's as he interacts with old "friends" like the Furies and meets new ones like Hades and Persephone
• Chronicles of the Wandering Star: In these stories, written as part of a middle school science curriculum, a multi-generation alien spaceship named The Wandering Star is stranded on Earth by a foldspace accident. The main characters are four young aliens from very different species. In the process of repairing the ship, they learn about the planet and its inhabitants as well as about fundamentals of physical science. The stories are meant to entertain, but also to explore scientific reasoning and physical phenomena including force and motion, light and color, conservation of mass and energy, small particle theory of matter, and molecular chemistry.

Novels - Currently complete and under editorial consideration:

• Winter of Discontent ties together the rites of Dionysus, the War of the Roses, Elizabethan theater, and the politics of magic in a modern university.
• Numismancer, set in present day Edinburgh, delves into the secret history of money and the magical reasons behind European Economic Union.
  
• The Urbäna is an exploration of urban magic and what might evolve to fill the magical/ecological niches vacated by the Fey. Two short stories set in the Urbäna world, "Shatter" has been published by and "Dying Season" is forthcoming in Weird Tales.
• Chalice Book I: ArtBreak is a young adult novel about a very different kind of magic school.
  

Short Stories - Published or forthcoming:

• The Basilisk Hunter: James and Merlin are back and visiting the Australian Outback in this humorous sequel to "When Jabberwocks Attack."
• A Cat Named Dilemma: His name was Dilemma and he was my cat, though only briefly. Sometimes, no matter how much you want to, you don't get to write a happy ending.
  
• Dying Season: Jack was a farm boy with big city dreams. He wanted the magic of the theater. Urbäna glamour. He ended up living on the streets and finding a very different sort of magic. Urbäna power.
  
• FimbulDinner: Some say the world will end in fire, some say in ice. They're all wrong. It will end in dinner. When you put Odin at one end of the table, Kali at the other, and the Goddess of Discord in the kitchen, you have a recipe for disaster.
• Interface Pattern: Would you trust the company that designed your computer to filter your whole life? What if you had no choice? What if everything you saw or heard came through an electronic interface? What if someone found a way to hack the system?
• The Sharp End: Eric Waters was the last astronaut on NASA's final mission, a flight to the outer planets. When the Phoenix lifted off, Eric couldn't imagine wanting anything more than to bring NASA back to life. Then events forced him to expand his imagination.
• Shatter: Blood and glass and haunting nightmares of a dead little boy. "Street signs have a magic all their own. They can lead you to your destination. They can direct you to your death. Ignore them at your peril." Beware the Shatter. Beware the Urbäna.
• The Uncola: Dennis used to be a working actor. Now he's a clay pigeon. In a world where the cola wars have gone hot, even an advertising pitchman can end up in the crosshairs.
  
• WebMage: What happens when you hack the servers the Fates use to run the world? Ravirn and his shapechanging goblin/laptop familiar are about to find out. (Chosen in a reader poll as best story of the issue.)
• When Jabberwocks Attack: James was just looking for a workstudy job. He ended up as Merlin's sidekick on Mythical of Omaha's Magic Kingdom. Like Arthur before him, he was about to find out about the ups and downs of life with the world's most famous wizard.
• The Wyrm OreBoreUS: E.R. was a Monster Trucks Digest kind of guy. In fact, he liked anything that was big and loud, which made him the perfect pilot for one of the hundred-ton Wyrms digging a tunnel under the Atlantic Ocean. Or did it? It never pays to get too close to a dragon, even a man-made one.
  

Poetry - Published:

• The Bees: An Edgar Allan Pooh Poem: A twisted take on Poe's "The Bells" as seen through the eyes of Edgar Allan Pooh.
• Cry Werewolf: Ever wonder whether the guy in the cube next to yours is a werewolf? Ever think that he'd be better off if he were? This poem is for you.
• The Mourning After the Night of the Living Dead: or, Sometimes It Sucks to be a Vampire: With a title like that, what more can you say: or, you thought alcohol hangovers were bad.
