Signal Feb 6, 2019

by Tony Peak

( 5 )

$2.99

They were sent to investigate the first extraterrestrial signal. What they found was beyond anything they could have imagined - or feared.

On a voyage to a mysterious moon in the Alpha Centauri system, the UEA Centaurus meets with disaster. Only the quick thinking of the flight engineer, Rachel Terman, saves some of the crew. Crash-landing on the moon, trillions of kilometers from Earth, they struggle to carry out their mission and try to survive.

But nothing has prepared them for what they will face. False readings on sensors. Bizarre nightmares. Crew members vanishing.

Then, Rachel discovers a blue, glassy lake.

And everything changes. If the signal abides - will humankind fall?

Beethoven's Tenth Dec 19, 2019

by Tony Peak

( 2 )

$2.99

In post-Napoleonic Europe, rival secret societies hunt for Beethoven’s Tenth Symphony—for whomever deciphers the intricate mathematics hidden within, gains power over time and space.

Trestan Descaix, Napoleon’s best spy, seeks the Tenth’s hidden transcripts for Revolutionary partisans. The quest will send him across time, braving horrors from Borodino to Auschwitz, and ultimately to other worlds in a race to decide the course of humanity. Composers living and dead aid or hinder his efforts. Yet a mysterious competitor not only challenges him for the Tenth, but challenges the Enlightenment ideals he’s claimed to uphold—and his betrayals in doing so.

Inherit the Stars Nov 3, 2015

by Tony Peak

( 21 )

$4.99

An epic debut set on the edges of space, where one botched job could mean death—or so much worse…

Wanderlust runs in Kivita Vondir’s blood. She dreamed of salvaging like her father when she was young, and now it’s her addiction, getting her through pit stops filled with cheap alcohol and cheaper companionship and distracting her from her broken heart.

Her latest contract to hunt down a fabled gemstone is exactly the kind of adventure she craves. But this job is more than meets the eye. For one thing, her duplicitous employer has hired rebel Sar Redryll—Kivita’s former lover—to stop her at any cost. For another, Kivita’s recovery of the relic unleashes in her powerful new abilities. Abilities that everyone in the Cetturo Arm—human, alien, and in-between—desperately wishes to control…

As she avoids a massive galactic manhunt, Kivita teams up with two unlikely allies: Sar and his enigmatic new partner. Only, as the gem’s mysteries are revealed and danger draws near, Kivita begins to wonder if her ex has truly changed, or if he’s just waiting for the right moment to betray her once again…

Prophet of Pathways Feb 20, 2017

by Tony Peak

( 1 )

$2.99

Tagen awakens in a grimy, rain-slicked cityscape after committing suicide. The otherworldly city of Meridian, surrounded by the endless waters of the Styx, is filled with people with no memory of their pasts and ruled by the bloodthirsty cult of Clowns and their High Priestess, who denies the truth that everyone in the city is dead. Tagen remembers nothing of his past, except that he came to Meridian on purpose, in search of his wife Alexis.

When a fortune teller named Sveta gives Tagen a Tarot card reading, she draws the Magician, a sign that he has an important role to play in the fate of Meridian—but drawing the forbidden card condemns them both to death for heresy before the High Priestess. They are saved by Andromeda, who once led a failed rebellion and means to use Tagen's powers to overthrow the High Priestess. Even as they are pursued by the Clowns through clockwork spires and abandoned ruins, Tagen causes the memories of those around him to awaken, inspiring hope in the lost souls of Meridian. But he must recall his own memories to understand why he is there and how to escape, and facing his past may be the most daunting part of his journey.
