But he wound up facing something far more terrible: the legacy of a vicious murder, the fate of a dying child, and dark truths about life--and what comes after--that would change his world forever. Life is Not Always a Butcher's Game. Sometimes the Frizes Are Real. Sometimes They're Precious. A riveting story about love and loss, about growing up and growing old-- and about those who don't get to do either because death comes for them before their time--JOYLAND is Stephen King at the peak of his storytelling powers. With all the emotional impact of King masterpieces such as The Green Mile and The Shawshank Redemption, JOYLAND is at once a mystery, a horror story, and a bittersweet coming-of-age novel, one that will leave even the most hard-boiled reader profoundly moved.

Judgement Day
by Andrew Neiderman2-IN-1 THRILLER SET! At long last: the prequel to The Devil's Advocate--packaged together with that original novel, which Al Pacino, Keanu Reaves, and Charlize Theron turned into a blockbuster movie. Revealing the story of how the law firm of John Milton & Associates came to be, this will change forever how you think of the original The Devil's Advocate book and the major motion picture that made it a household name.When the promising young attorney of a prestigious law firm is found dead on the sidewalk twenty stories below his posh New York apartment, everyone rules it as a suicide. Everyone except Lieutenant Matthew Blake--a detective with a legendary track record and a notoriously unorthodox style. Blake sees something more nefarious in the attorney's death, and he slowly uncovers a murder plot so twisted that it could only have been concocted by the devil himself. Coincidentally (or perhaps not) John Milton--a handsome, charming, and unflappable defense attorney--strolls into the grieving law firm with a mind to replace the unfortunate attorney. Little does the firm know that Milton's plan extends far beyond just becoming a partner.

Juggernaut
by Adam Baker"A high-voltage shock to the system. It's smart, witty, crammed with action and disturbingly plausible. Highly recommended." –Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Assassin's CodeA brilliant, gripping portrait of survival in the face of complete annihilation. THEY SEARCHED FOR GOLD. THEY FOUND DEATH. Iraq 2005. Seven mercenaries hear an enticing rumor: somewhere, abandoned in the swirling desert sands, lies an abandoned Republican Guard convoy containing millions of pounds of Saddam's gold. They form an unlikely crew of battle-scarred privateers, killers and thieves, veterans of a dozen war zones, each of them anxious to make one last score before their luck runs out. After liberating the sole surviving Guard member from US capture, the team makes their way to the ancient ruins where the convoy was last seen. Although all seems eerily quiet and deserted when they arrive, they soon find themselves caught in a desperate battle for their lives, confronted by greed, betrayal, and an army that won't stay dead. An unputdownable military thriller that SFFworld.com called "Three Kings meets The Walking Dead," Juggernaut is a heart-pounding, fast-paced read that doesn't let up until the last page.
