Book Description
Lybania is a cursed planet in the distant stars. In the planet's infancy, a demon duped the leaders of the human clans into killing the Abrahams of their world. A dark age of false gods, evil and magic ensued. Therin of Goldenfield and his pregnant wife are trapped in an Indio city decimated by a metal cylinder that plummeted from the sky. Within the smoking wreckage, the surviving natives found a Sacred Book. It bestowed them with gifts of prophecy, invulnerability and the ability to understand many tongues. The native leader told Therin, that a demon plans to conquer Therin's homeland (the Free Cities). The demon wrested control of the Northern Overlord's army from the dictator. In a blitzkrieg of swords and magic, the army conquered Black Rock City and gained a foothold in the Free Cities. Therin must help Angel of Junction, the only one able to end the demon's curse. But the demon's assassins scour the Free Cities to eradicate Angel, and guarantee the demon's success. To insure the safety of Therin's wife and child, they must separate while he pursues his quest. Therin faces a heart wrenching decision. To save his homeland, he must leave his wife and child, not knowing if he'll ever see them again. Or he can flee the conflict to save them, and let his homeland be enslaved. DOUBLE GEMINI is the first book of THE GREATEST GIFT REGIFTED trilogy. It is an epic fantasy with a Christian twist written for adults and mature young adults.

Book Description
Scott Ourecky wanted to fly—he never dreamed he'd end up in a secret military space program. The year is 1968: The Cold War is far from over, nuclear annihilation is always only a heartbeat away. America is racing the Soviet Union to land men on the Moon, a war is raging, and a pivotal presidential election looms on the horizon. A child of the early space age, Lieutenant Scott Ourecky joined the Air Force with aspirations of going to flight school. A brilliant engineer, he repeatedly fails the aptitude test to become a pilot but is selected to work on a highly classified military space program—the innocuously named Aerospace Support Project—in which Air Force astronauts are slated to fly missions to intercept and destroy suspect Soviet satellites. When one of the astronauts in training abruptly falls out of the project, Ourecky is asked to fill in for the two-man simulated missions and survival training only, serving with a headstrong and abrasive test pilot, Major Drew Carson, until another astronaut can be assigned. By far the most proficient pilot assigned to the project, Carson has a dangerous propensity to engage in “pick-up” dog fighting sessions while on cross-country training flights. And although Ourecky was only a temporary “place holder,” not destined to fly in space, he soon finds himself much more involved than he ever anticipated—and in deepest peril. Based on a real secret space program, Blue Gemini combines high-altitude action with edge-of-your-seat storytelling to create a modern Cold War thriller. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more.

Book Description
Occasonally, a tale comes along that has been lost in the mists of time. Often the story starts out as just another mundane event in daily life until something else comes out from behind the shadows. And when it does, nobody can escape the fire storm that follows, especially when the masked one demands so much of our attention. Because in the end, the consequences of his actions eventually consume all of those in its path. William McBride was such a person in the early 14th century, when he came in contact with the Logan brothers of Lanark, who were also known to the locals as the Gemini Knights. These brothers were Templar Knights of the Scottish Order and they carried out a number dangerous exploits in their time. And as William McBride found out in later life, the times he spent with the brothers would eventually place him on a path that could have a profound impact on the City of Jerusalem at the end time. To some, this story may appear to be just another old wives tale, worthy of a good read and then placed on the book shelve to gather dust from now on. However, to others the story of the Gemini Knights has more than just a ring of truth to it in some kind of old fashioned way. Enough, to engage the mind in more than a simple observation of the material that William McBride collected over his life time.So, if you have an inquisitive mind and want to gain a glimpse into the future, the only question you have to ask yourself is. 'Do I have the courage to read the book and judge for myself?'
