Travelers
Rest: Keith Lee Morris
The Addisons-Julia and
Tonio, ten-year-old Dewey, and derelict Uncle Robbie-are
driving home, cross-country, after collecting Robbie
from yet another trip to rehab. When a terrifying
blizzard strikes outside the town of Good Night, Idaho,
they seek refuge in the town at the Travelers Rest, a
formerly opulent but now crumbling and eerie hotel where
the physical laws of the universe are bent. Once inside
the hotel, the family is separated. As Julia and Tonio
drift through the maze of the hotel's spectral
interiors, struggling to make sense of the building's
alluring powers, Dewey ventures outward to a
secret-filled diner across the street. Meanwhile, a
desperate Robbie quickly succumbs to his old vices,
drifting ever further from the ones who love him most.
With each passing hour, dreams and memories blur,
tearing a hole in the fabric of our perceived reality
and leaving the Addisons in a ceaseless search for one
another. At each turn a mysterious force prevents them
from reuniting, until at last Julia is faced with an
impossible choice.

Dogs
of War: Jonathan Maberry
Dogs of War: Robots are
no longer science fiction. Autonomous, programmed to
react like animals: fast, relentless, deadly. From
microscopic nanobots to massive self-guided aircraft.
This technology is here, it's assessable, and it's
dangerous. What's even scarier is that almost anyone can
get their hands on it. A freelance terrorist uses the
latest generation of robot dogs to deliver WMDs into
cities across America. Sophisticated military weapons
systems turn on their human masters. A technological
apocalypse is coming and we may be too late to stop it.
Joe Ledger and a newly rebuilt Department of Military
Sciences square off against this new and terrible
threat. Dogs of War pits Joe against a merciless new
enemy and an army of techno-terrorists in a race to
prevent a global destruction.
