"Goodness and evil reside in the same bed lying side by side in contrast, yet are inseparable because they are and always shall be one and the same." Sitting atop of the Fairfax Hotel is a gargoyle that some say wields mythical power to grant success, but not without a substantial price. Yet others claim it is simply a stone decoration misinterpreted by man's foolishness and greed for power. Which should we believe? Success comes at a cost no matter how it is achieved whether through the act of making simple choices or committing murder. It is a dilemma that defines who or what we are. Sam Blythe has reached that moment in his life where he has to make that choice and decide what sacrifices he is willing to live with. But the sudden changes in Sam's life has thrust him into his own novel where his characters are taking on the personages of the people that have mysteriously entered his life. Is his own book showing him what he should do or is it something else? Is this new direction of his own choosing or are these thoughts are not his own and he is a pawn in a much bigger game as he faces The Evil from Above. Tony Ruggiero is best known for his dark fantasy thrillers about vampires used by the US military in the Team of Darkness series. In science fiction, his books Alien Deception and Revelation deal with the alien influence in the American political system. Witches also take the stage in his novel, Coven, a story about witchcraft and murder in a small town. Numerous short stories in his quirky style of humor have appeared in many anthologies.

Do you think it's easy being an alien, a satanic creature or anything else not considered part of the Homo sapiens only club? They have tough days just like humans do and their frustration is growing. Don't believe it? Well, what about Lucifer, the prince of darkness, who runs a car dealership--what about his feelings when he is faced with that impossible sale and he can't get that signature on form 666, the standard soul contract? Or maybe you wondered about how an extremely vain alien copes with having a bad hair day as he tries to alter the future of Earth? Will his cosmetic problems be our problems in other ways? Perhaps you heard about the opposite vampire who loves to give blood, hates the darkness and has a fetish for garlic-how does he get through a bad relationship? How about a DNA altered cat that has been given the personality of one of the world's most fearsome criminals? Will its human owners understand or will it be a less then purr-fect arrangement? What's the common thread to all this discontent, you ask? What is it about most stories that stay the same? It's the human! These aliens and demonic creatures are sick and tired of being the second fiddle in the story. They want what everybody wants: to be the center of attention of the stories instead of the pesky humans for a change...and now they finally get their wish.

Little towns and secrets: a guilty pleasure for some and a harsh reality for others. Witches have secretly been in control of the town council for years and the town has prospered...until now. As they search for the truth behind the mysterious death of one of their shop owners, they uncover disturbing secrets about an ostracized witch and their own coven leader, making it unclear which one may have been using black magic to murder.
