Step back in time to Easter, 1935 at Glosser Bros. Department Store in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The display windows bloom with brightly colored decorations, and the smell of roasting peanuts fills the air. Each child gets a free baby chick for the holiday, and a rabbit comes with the purchase of each boys' suit. When eight-year-old Owen Talisman gets his free (yet priceless) Easter pets, life with his special new bunny takes a surprising twist that changes everything. Decades later, Owen faces another turning point, one that could take away his hopes and dreams forever. But his great-grandson, and the magic of Easter at Glosser's, refuse to give up on him. Don't miss this new Easter classic by Robert Jeschonek, award-winning author of LONG LIVE GLOSSER'S and CHRISTMAS AT GLOSSER'S.What Readers Say About LONG LIVE GLOSSER'S by Robert Jeschonek"It's a trip down memory lane you don't want to miss." - Arlene Johns, JOHNSTOWN MAGAZINE"As someone who went to Glosser's when I was a kid, it brought back many fond memories." - Lawrence P Endler, Amazon Reviewer"This book tells it like it WAS!

Judd the popular 17-year-old jock has it all figured out. He's the star of his school, the top of the heap...but then the world starts changing around him and won't stop. Without explanation, everyone turns into purple furries...then gas-blasting puffballs...then neurotic lizards. Every time Judd falls asleep, he wakes up in a new and crazier world--a world of godlike super-teens, teenage serial killers, duck people, nudists, monsters, and more. It's like a twisted video game without rhyme or reason. The rules never stop changing, and the only thing he can depend on is his talking pinky finger with a major attitude. Together, he and Pinkerton (the finger prefers the name "Killdigit!") fight through the parade of crazy realities, seeking a way to get back to normal. But what if normal just isn't an option anymore?
The Red Battlenauts show no mercy. Roaring out of the darkness of deep space, these ultra-high tech war machines pound both sides in a bloody interstellar civil war.

But when a face from the past exposes the secrets behind the carnage, a quest for answers becomes a race against time. Because the Red Battlenauts have a secret weapon of their own, and the countdown to doomsday has begun.Don't miss this exciting sequel to Beware The Black Battlenaut by award-winning storyteller Robert Jeschonek, a master of hard-hitting science fiction that really packs a punch.Reviews"Jeschonek is a master of military mecha mayhem. Fast-paced, pulse-pounding combat scenes make Battlenaut Crucible a must-read in his growing Battlenaut series." - William H. Keith, author of the Grey Death Battlemech novels"Robert Jeschonek is a towering talent." - Mike Resnick, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author of the Starship series
