Two Ordinary People from Mundania travel to Xanth to defeat a rogue Night Colt in the latest in a beloved series from bestselling author Piers Anthony. The Night Colt has one ambition: to deliver dreams to the deserving. Unfortunately, only Night Mares can take on this task, and the Colt has no hope of leading his own herd if he can’t get any practice. . . . So he’s struck a deal with a Mundane. During the hours when the Night Mares rest—dusk and dawn—the duo plants stories in the air, compelling the people of Xanth to enact them—whether they want to or not. Unwilling to participate in these fantasies, the princesses of Xanth, Dawn and Eve, come up with a plan to fight the menacing pair, but they’ll need the help of two unlikely heroes to succeed. In Mundania, a mysterious painting entrances Ordinary People Tartan and Tara. But why do they each see something different when they look at it? They quickly learn that it’s not a painting after all, but a portal to a magical world. With nothing to lose, they climb through the portal into Xanth and are met with a plea to help stop the Night Colt and his ghost writer. Tartan and Tara don’t hesitate to join the quest to save Xanth from the ultimate pun-tastrophe. Together with their new friends, they’ll begin a journey full of magic and romance—and, of course, puns—that will lead them to a long-lost prince, a beautiful dragoness, the goddess Isis, and a demon named Ted. With rip-roaring humor and nonstop adventure, the newest addition to Piers Anthony’s popular Xanth series is sure to enchant fans of epic fantasy. Ghost Writer in the Sky is the 41st book in the Xanth series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Snarky, delicious fun! A laugh-out-loud mashup of romantic comedy, crime fiction, and satire: Dorothy Parker meets Dorothy L. Sayers. Perennially down-and-out socialite Camilla Randall a.k.a. "The Manners Doctor" is a magnet for murder, mayhem and Mr. Wrong, but she always solves the mystery in her quirky, but oh-so-polite way. Usually with more than a little help from her gay best friend, Plantagenet Smith. After Camilla's celebrity ex-husband’s ironic joke about her “kinky sex habits” is misquoted in a tabloid, New York etiquette columnist Camilla Randall’s life unravels in bad late night jokes. Nearly broke and down to her last Hermes scarf, she accepts an invitation to a Z-list Writers’ Conference in the wine-and-cowboy town of Santa Ynez, California, where, unfortunately, a cross-dressing dominatrix plies her trade by impersonating Camilla. When a ghostwriter’s plot to blackmail celebrities with faked evidence leads to murder, Camilla must team up with the dominatrix to stop the killer. Meanwhile, a wannabe writer who happens to be a hot L.A. cop just may steal her heart. "Twisted chick-lit noir with a side of funny!" "This book is hysterically funny AND accurately depicts the Santa Ynez Valley. Anne Allen gets it right, down to the dollar bills stuck on the ceiling of the Maverick Saloon. It was so fun to read as she called out one Valley landmark after another. Allen got the local denizens right, too" "This feisty tale trips along like an A-list hooker in high heels, street-wise and chic."

It conjured up that old country and western song 'Ghostriders in the Sky' where howling echo-chamber cowboys are doomed to chase a spectral herd across the firmament. Yippy-ay-oh, yippy-ay-eh. Ghost writers in the sky.

It's thirty years since Harry Starks and his gang kept the underworld of Soho under control but the consequences of their brutal reign are still being felt. Julie McCluskey, the actress daughter of one of Starks' victims, has grown up without a father and now that she's discovered it was money from her father's murderers that put her through drama school, she's furious. Furious with her mother for accepting it, but even more furious with Harry Starks - and she's decided she wants revenge. Tony Meehan, journalist and part-time murderer ('I've only killed three') has added another occupation to his list: he's ghostwriting the autobiography of one of the Bullion Job (Brinks Mat) gang, a robbery in which Starks was also involved, and the gold's still missing. And then there's Gaz, who worked for Starks' rival Beardsley in the 80s and is now running bouncers, taking too many drugs, and playing a very dangerous game. Moving his focus on to the greedy 80s and the rave scene of the 90s, Arnott delivers another hard-edged, riveting, brilliant novel that will delight his many admirers and win him more.

Ray loves to blend his lines of work: murder and manipulation. He spends some days spouting on his talk show and other days plotting or performing murders. Ray is a modern day terrorist, traumatizing the victims of his plots and manipulating anyone willing to listen to his show. Dug has bad history Ray, and does anything to oppose Ray’s work. No one knows that the talk show host regularly makes his own talking points by killing people. Ray’s explosiveness on-air would not be connected to his car bombing plots. Despite being unaware too, Dug is disgusted by Ray’s show and the constant hatred he spews, as Ray regularly militarizes listeners and scapegoats innocent people. ‘Rantings Of A Madman’ places the reader in Ray’s audience and provides insight into his terrorism plots. Dug and his dissenting friends look to silence the on-air terrorist. The outspoken Ray will alter the thoughts of all audience members, including his dissenters. One will never think the same after hearing Ray’s thoughts. Be forewarned, as he discusses the compulsive use of phones, social medias, and modern manipulation. Be prepared for intoxicating gases and words. A full fledge war against reality and common perception is waged daily on Ray’s show.

A short anthology by a prolific poet and short story writer. Flesh and Bone I am but flesh and bone, as such I have a lot to atone, I consume the grasses of life, to feed my flesh which is the living's fief, my blood runs with the grass's essence, my life requires its obsolescence, the blood and flesh life's frame, I am but bones in death as the Earth life's frame does reclaim, life's form melts back to the Earth its mother, the dirt of the body brings life to another, the flesh in death feeds the grasses above, life feeds upon the grass to feed their flesh and the cycle continues thereof.
