This week it’s the turn of Faith Fallon Vol 1: What Price Fame?
Who is Faith Fallon?
Faith Fallon was America’s sweetheart during the fabulous 50s. She burst onto the Hollywood scene like a shooting star. Men wanted her. Women wanted to be her. Alas, as is the fate of so many young starlets in Hollywood, her star eventually faded, and she fell out of favour.
Faith’s career and personal life continued on its downward spiral until she was found dead in her home in upstate New York. She had allegedly committed suicide.
Faith Fallon suffered a fate worse, and in some ways better, than death. This is her story.
From famous to infamous.
“From the moment you open the first page you know you’re in for something special, it’s forward thinking and ulitisation of mixed media show you the future of storytelling.”

The DragonStar Chronicles: Book 5 – Corporate Dossier
Sofi has been captured by agents of Interstellar Transport and delivered to SenExecA Tremendous VI (de facto Emperor of the Galaxy) on ITTC New Homeworld. He can’t break Sofi’s imprint-bond with his wayward cargo-asset (Sagan, who’s waiting safely nearby in space). So he must convince her to join the IT Armada Corps voluntarily. Tremendous believes the DragonStars are critical to the survival of galactic civilization and Sofi – alone, vulnerable, and several trillion miles from home – is almost convinced by his passionate dedication to the “destiny intelligence.”
But there are secrets in the DragonStar “domestication” procedures that threaten to derail the negotiations and Tremendous, a man capable of planetary violence, MUST secure the return of the DragonStar that was stolen from him…

Some doors are sealed for a reason.
For generations, the tribes of Alemar have held an uneasy peace — and Reena’s people, the Phoenix, have kept it. She’s the Chieftain’s daughter, young to be carrying it, and already the weight is being laid on her shoulders.
Then the exiled Leopard tribe returns — thought gone forever, back now with fire and blade — and an alliance built over lifetimes begins to collapse in days.
But when Reena digs into how they found their way home, she uncovers a hidden hand steering all of it from the shadows, set on erasing everything her people have made. Hunted and grieving, she takes up the path of her warrior ancestors to hunt it down — and what waits at the end is nothing she was raised to believe in. A discovery that overturns her world, and forges an alliance no one in Alemar could have dreamed possible.
