Celebrating Wild Child Publishing's October Releases

Today on our Cyber Launch Party Blog, we're celebrating some exciting new October releases for Wild Child Publishing and Freya's Bower! There's Action, Historical, Mystery, Horror and Romance - truly something for everyone!

Wild Child Publishing has been on the web since August 1999. It began when two roommates with a love for the English language surfed the web and realized there were few, if any at the time, good online magazines. Discussions about the dearth of quality creative writing on the web led to the idea to create one. But not just a magazine, a place where readers and writers could come together, meet, talk, complain, laugh, and commiserate.

For more than six years, Wild Child has accomplished that original goal. Along the way, they've expanded by adding five editors and undergone a number of web design transformations. Each change has been with the intent of improving the experience for our readers and continuing to move into the future.

Freya's Bower publishes erotica and erotic romance. New writers as well as cross-genre experimental styles and short story collections are available in both ebook and print.


BURGER by Ronald Couch

Hans Burger, Führer of the Supreme Security Staff, is on a mission to avenge the death of his mentor, and former Führer, Kurt Schmidt. Schmidt rests in a sitting position inside Burger's Frigidaire chest freezer.

In order to exact his revenge on Ryan Conway, his wife, Eleanor, and David Wentz, a some times inept Mossad agent, the murderous Burger has the Supreme Security Staff infiltrate Mega Motors Corporation in accordance with Schmidt's original plans. But things do not go according to anyone's plans, and it almost becomes a comedy of errors for both Burger and Wentz.

Who will win in this fast-paced satirical thriller? Will Mega Motors survive? Will Wentz save his friends? Or will Burger kill them all?

REDTAIL HEART by Kenneth W. Williams (NOW IN PRINT)

Beleaguered divorce attorney Christopher Irvin was far more astute at putting marriages asunder than creating one of his own. So when the specter of death shattered the quiet complacency of his well-ordered world, he began to re-evaluate his life from the ground up.

Chris’ search for meaning leads him directly to his expatriate uncle, Roy Lankster, a decorated member of the famed Tuskegee Airmen. Nearly 50 years earlier, Roy’s P 51 Mustang fighter plane crashed in France in the lead up to WWII’s D-Day invasion. Broken, battered and barely alive, he’s rescued by Marie Renoir, a member of the French Resistance'. Their courage in the face of the ever present danger of capture is only overshadowed by a love between them so powerful that it rivals the first and greatest love in human history. The raging war, synthetic insanity, and the unassigned immoral forces of the universe conspire to tear them apart.

Chris, through Roy’s writings, relives his uncle’s relentless struggle to reunite with his love for the ages, and embarks himself on a personal journey of love and redemption.

AGAINST NATURE by John Nelson

The U.S. is ground-zero for a mysterious global pandemic. The disease is highly infectious and kills its victims within two weeks of exposure. It’s neither bacteria nor a virus and all traditional treatment regiments have failed.

Serena Salus, a radical scientist, discovers the organism is an extraterrestrial dust mite brought to earth by a shuttle astronaut.

The government contends it’s a genetically-engineered organism created on earth by enemies of freedom.

Dr. Salus uncovers a vile plan for distributing her experimental antitoxin and finds herself in a deadly confrontation with powerful forces that’ll stop at nothing to control the distribution of her vaccine.

CRYSTAL BIRCH by Jessie A. McPeeke

Katy McPherson has always had a special connection with her husband; ever since they first met in the remote wilds of Alaska, they've been able to glimpse each other's thoughts. Their telepathic connection is a joke between them, one that neither entirely believes in---until the day that Katy's husband, Marty, is shot down over Vietnam. That night, Katy dreams he is alive, so when a fellow Navy pilot delivers the news that Katy's husband is dead, she clings fast to the belief that her psychic connection has shown her that Marty is still alive. Even as she fights to prevent the military from declaring him dead and giving up the search for her missing husband, doubts begin to grow in her mind, leaving her uncertain of whether or not she'll ever see her one true love again.

Marty McPherson wakes up a prisoner under interrogation after a top-secret mission goes horribly wrong. As he suffers through long days of torture, and is eventually sent to work in a foreign country as slave labor, the only thing that keeps Marty sane are the strange, fleeting visions he has of his wife. Having never been sure their psychic connection was real, Marty doesn't know whether to believe Katy is communicating with him, or if he is only seeing what he so desperately wants to see---the beautiful face of his loving and faithful wife, waiting for him to come home.

When Marty is unexpectedly rescued and brought home to Alaska in secrecy, the couple is reunited, but their troubles are only beginning. Disturbing questions plague them about Marty's rescue, and they have every reason to believe someone may want both of them dead. To make things worse, the faithful couple now struggles with understanding the suffering that Marty has gone through during his imprisonment, and are having a hard time coming to grips with the realization that they may, indeed, have a psychic link---one that can do far more than just allow each other to visit their dreams...

BALKAN SPRING by John Dargo

In 1943, the Nazi war machine had yet to be blunted. In the midst of war-torn Europe, in the central mountains of Yugoslavia, three friends band together to fight against German invaders. But when Partisan regulars prove to be a threat as well, the friends must question their resolve in the face of a new menace from within their own ranks.

Once settled on flight, the three embark on a journey to save themselves while the Nazi stranglehold tightens on their ever-diminishing homeland.

At the same time, on the fells of southern England, another warrior readies for battle. Reluctant to echo the misery his family has felt on others, Ian Langford knows he must carry the war to the heart of the enemy in order to end it. When his mission carries him over the spring fields of Yugoslavia, he must reassess exactly what he is fighting for, and decide if his actions are to be those of a hero, or just those of a killer.

Balkan Spring is a tale of ordinary men and women caught up in extraordinary times. Sometimes they rise to the occasion, but other times falter and give in to lower natures, only to rise again with the absolution that only courage can bring.

This is a tale of our better selves.

LORD OF THE CATS by Ilan Herman

Tim, a divorced father, never knew his melancholy life could become so dramatic, but then he never thought he’d adopt ten stray cats either. Nor did he believe that cats could talk… until one evening, they did and anointed him Lord of the Cats.

Being Lord to a tribe of cats isn't as easy as it first appears; felines have their own way of thinking, and their antics cause problems in his apartment complex.

Now, Tim must save his flock from a nasty neighbor and an evil landlady who’d like nothing more than to see them dead.

Can Tim stave off a disaster? Or will circumstances spiral out of his control?
