***This book uses explicit language from time to time***
Jack Frost invades Hell. Intriguing right? Well, hold onto your hats, there is more to this story. Demon Winters follows Dee – a pudgy, slacker, emo, and a want-to-be poet all wrapped up into a husky, hoofed Hellion. As he sets out on an adventure with his trusty shovel and treasured journal, overcoming the new snow covered landscape while battling foreign ice creatures of legend to restore Hell from the icy grip of Jack Frost.
Demon Winters was originally a video game idea that we wanted to make in 2009. But like 90% of all game design ideas we never got to it. Recently, we started looking through some of the old game design documents and realized that we should make this into a book since we would mostly likely never make the video game. We wanted tell the story of what happens to Dee (the emo demon) as he fights his way through the now frozen terrain of Hell once Jack Frost invaded.
If there is enough interest in the book we will use the profits to create the video game. 🙂

- Release Date: 09-16-15
- Publisher: 3r Interactive, LLC
Former ranger Jack Smith watched an Army bio-warfare experiment go horribly wrong in an Afghan village in 2001, escaping only after he turned to a makeshift mace and bayonet to destroy the skulls of the infected creatures that bullets to the chest could not stop. With the traumatic experience seared into his mind, he earned his PhD, in ancient history and began developing medieval weapons-making skills after he left the service.
When the virus broke free from the Hindu-Kush Mountains a decade later and rapidly spread across the globe, Jack knew how to fight the monsters created by the infection: 21st-century technology combined with deadly medieval tactics and weaponry. Jack and his former squad mates lead a resistance against a zombie apocalypse in a crusade to ensure humanity’s survival.

When an unknown virus that turns humans into flesh-eating zombies begins to spread around the world, no one is safe. A few small communities in disparate locations manage to create at least temporary safe havens, including the inhabitants of an Israeli kibbutz. As the global crisis tears apart the fabric of human civilization, survivors must learn how to defend themselves against a horrific enemy that turns friends and family into mindless cannibals who can survive seemingly fatal wounds.
Zombie Crusade Snapshots are quick glimpses of critical locations around the world as the zombie pandemic detailed in the Zombie Crusade series begins to unfold. While the snapshots connect to the main storyline of the novels (some in obvious ways, others in ways that will become more apparent as the series continues), they may also be listened to as standalone stories.

Chess, a two-player strategy game, may appear simple to the casual observer, but its game board of 64 squares and 32 pieces can take a lifetime to master. The game itself originated in the sixth century, taking on a militaristic theme, which later evolved into the pieces of today: pawn, knight, bishop, rook, and, of course, the king and queen. The game is highly strategic and played around the world by lovers, young and old, of the genre. Each challenge is unique, and every player has his favorite move and cunning approach.
In Chess: From Beginner to Pro, author Mike Valley gives the listener everything he or she needs to know about the game: history, basic rules, and advanced strategies. Before long, even those who are new to the game will be gleefully calling “Check Mate” to their defeated foes.
A book designed to bring your game to the next level, Chess leaves no pawn untouched and no king sheltered behind his bishop. Start listening now, and begin to play like a pro today!

Description
In this classic tale from the Brothers Grimm, a girl who has no talent with a spinning wheel finds herself living in a castle, where the queen expects her to quickly and easily spin three rooms full of flax into fine thread. Fortunately, three strange-looking little women show up and offer to help the girl in exchange for a simple favor.
One good deed leads to another, and the unintended consequences turns out to be the best surprise of all.

Eight-year-old Morgan Jones is having a bit of trouble at school, and she’s looking forward to a weekend visit to her grandparents’ farm to celebrate her sister’s birthday.
An unusual story from her father about one of his childhood adventures, and a new friend named Eric Simon, combine to send Morgan on an adventure all her own.

All kids like dinosaurs, right? Well, mega-mammal Meg Atherium wants kids to know that dinosaurs weren’t the only super-interesting, super-sized creatures in prehistoric times; in fact, giant mammals like saber toothed tigers, woolly mammoths, and 20 ft. tall land sloths (megatheriums) once dominated our planet. Meg thinks these massive mammals of the Pleistocene epoch deserve some long overdue publicity, so she’s spearheading a campaign to replace all those over-exposed dinosaurs (in movies, on TV shows, in picture books, on lunch boxes . . .) with the mega-mammals from her own (very-important) time.
