A deadly virus, a rogue time machine. Can a retired Time Agent brush up her skills before the clock runs out on the world?

Retired First Nations Temporal Agent Wilda Firestone wants nothing more than to run her Toronto costume shop for Time Tourists, spoil her cat, and drink her coffee. Her world is shaken when a deathly ill rogue time traveler falls on her doorstep and Wilda is dragged back into the fray to find the plague’s source. As she traces the traveler’s footsteps through time with her assistant, Mattea, they must travel to the luxurious court of Mansa Musa, the dark forests of pre-Columbian America, and fight against the heartbreak of true love. As they navigate politics, camels, and bandits, events take a dire turn when Wilda and Mattea discover a much larger conspiracy.

May 15, 2021 Ring of Fire with Stevie Rae Causey
Meet Stevie Rae Causey, who loves epic fantasy and retellings, and believes that myth and story play a big part in our emotional development.
Ring of Fire
Betrayal. Forbidden love. A human girl must choose between safety and truth when she falls in love with an elven prince. Kala was only 8 when Mystics killed her parents. At least, that's what she'd been told. Her uncle-one of the king's soldiers and the only witness-had never had the heart to burden her with the details of the night that had changed him forever. Still, she should have known better than to wander in to the woods alone. An encounter with a pair of elven enemies leaves Kala even more confused about her past, and uncertain of her future in the human world. "Love had blinded me to all logic, wrapping me in my own denial..." Ring of Fire is a companion novel to the Amasai Rising Trilogy. If you like magic, adventure, and forbidden interspecies romance, you’ll love Ring of Fire.

What if you could see the air? How differently would you treat the environment? Meet P. L. Tavormina, a biologist and science fiction writer who loves Star Trek and talking genetics.
Aerovoyant: The Industrial Age, Volume One
On planet Turaset, droughts ravage farmlands, cyclones rip through coastal cities, and with every barrel of oil the combustion industry pumps from the ground, the climate worsens. Alphonse has just refused a council seat because taking it means serving that rapacious industry. He leaves the city to seek solace in the wilderness, and there, a power to live the past awakens within him. Alphonse walks the steps of his distant ancestors on long-dead Earth, soon growing plagued with memories of its collapse, and he's left with a troubling certainty: He must infiltrate the combustion industry to secure proof of its treachery, or Turaset will be next to fall.
