The Britannia Conspiracy, by Peter Middleton


The Britannia Conspiracy, by Peter C. Middleton
"Refreshingly original, vividly engaging, suspenseful and action-packed from start to finish." - Amazon Review

An action-packed horror-thriller laced with dark, cynical humour and torturous cliffhangers as Britain faces what could very well be the very final chapter in its long and illustrious history.

Great Britain has produced its fair share of heroes, men and women who've fought bravely to protect and defend their nation. Boudicca was one of the first, a fierce warrior-queen who, in AD 61, united Britain’s tribes, and led them to glorious victories over the occupying Roman armies. During these great battles her hordes mercilessly killed around 100,000 legionaries and hung, burned or crucified their prisoners.Two thousand years later, those same Roman soldiers are back, emerging from their graves with an insatiable desire for vengeance, and a ravenous thirst for blood.

When traditional weapons fail to destroy them, a new generation of heroes must rise and step forward; ordinary people, with extraordinary skills, willing to risk their lives in a battle against the living and the dead. They have just hours to uncover a secret that has been hidden for nearly two millennia, and recover the one relic that can send this invincible zombie army back to hell. If they fail, they will be the last heroes Britain will ever have, because the nation’s history will come to a devastating and cataclysmic end.

Every minute counts in this highly entertaining, fast-paced action thriller, full of engaging characters and a relentless stream of tortuous cliffhangers that will keep you thoroughly engaged until its breathtaking and truly devastating finale. You will find it hard to put this book down and will be left desperate to read the next Britannia novel.

About the Author
Kipjo K. Ewers was born July 1, 1975. At an early age, he had an active imagination. By the time he started kindergarten he would create fictional stories, one of his favorites was about a character named "Old Man Norris" who hated everyone in the world except for him. When Kipjo attended our Lady of Victory Elementary school in Mount Vernon, NY he continued writing and reading stories to his classmates. His teacher, Mrs. Green, told him the children would laugh. However, she would remind Kipjo that this is how some of the great stories they read actually came about so don't let what others think deter him from continuing to write.

After elementary school, Kipjo was enrolled at Salesian High School in New Rochelle, NY. He would continue his education at Iona College majoring in English and Business Administration.

A career in the corporate world awaited Kipjo after college. He worked for several major firms within the New York area, but his passion was always to be a journalist/writer.

In his off time, he would write for e-Fed wrestling games and composed a number of short stories, but these were not published. He also began creating 3D graphic artwork, which can be found on sites such as Renderosity.com and Runtime.com.

In 2012, Kipjo began creating a new superhuman universe. Finding inspiration and solace in the loss of his first daughter due to an unfortunate miscarriage that devastated both his loving wife and Co-Founder, Jacquelin, and himself; he began writing a hero origin story now titled "The First". He created a world for his daughter where she not only lives, but is the strongest superhuman in the universe.

He hopes to continue her story as both a novel and comic book series.

I, Target (Part 1), by Bruce Rousseau


My name is Marko Santana and I have been killed many times.

You see, each time I am killed, my mind jumps into the killer's body and I take over. It's weird but simple: if someone kills me, I get their body.

So does that make me the ultimate crime-fighter? Maybe a cool body-snatcher kind of guy? Or nothing but a freakin' brain parasite? Personally, I prefer to think of myself as the ultimate survivor--with a serious personality disorder.

I am not your father's punch and run superhero. I am a problem in motion--and for better or worse, I am on the road to being seriously mental.

Join me on my quest for purpose and sanity as I journey through life in other people's bodies. For these are the chronicles of one who feeds on killers--my killers. These are the chronicles of Marko Santana.

Born in Texas. Died all over.

"I, Target" is a 5-part ebook serial and each part must be read in order. Each part is approximately 100 pages. "I, Target" will also be released in its entirety as a 500+ page trade paperback novel and as a complete ebook.

Warning: "I, Target" contains no cool graphics. But it does have humor, adult language, and starting in part 2 it contains some humorous adult sexual situations. So don't say you weren't warned.

About the Author
Bruce Rousseau is the author of the paranormal semi-superhero series "I, TARGET" and the unconventional mystery novel "French Tango."

Bruce was born in Fairbanks, Alaska and raised in California where he received a B.A. in Drama from CSUS. He now resides in Texas with his fiancée and the usual literary helper cats.
