Book Description
Everyone remembers how the face of baseball changed back in 2006. The doping scandal, the egos, the excessive money. It all just collapsed. But, of course, baseball itself would not die. How could it? And after a season or two of discontent, up sprang the Planetary Extreme Baseball Alliance, or PEBA for short. Today Casey Neal and his buddy Don-o are fresh-faced college graduates unencumbered by commitments like summer jobs or girl friends. On a lark they tour every big-league park in the PEBA, and find themselves caught up in a web of intrigue and scandal that threatens once again the very heart of professional baseball itself. Against all that Casey, well, he's trying to find out who he's going to be in this world. And Don-o? Well, Don-o is something different all together now, isn't he?

Book Description
What would happen if the DNA of Roy Hobbs, Casey at the Bat, and Henry Skrimshander got mixed up with Jack Kerouac and Hunter S. Thompson, then the whole concoction was thrown into a blender and set on "comic book?" Welcome to baseball, PEBA style. Where the game is global and growing, and where you'll find scandal, love, mystical powers, ghosts, and even perhaps a Russian spy and a Japanese inspector or two. In other words, anything can and does happen. LET'S PLAY THREE! is a boxed set of all three volumes in the PEBA Chronicles (two novels and a short story). It includes: - See the PEBA on $25 a Day - The Mysterious Case of Shojiro Sano's Bats - Chasing the Setting Sun. These stories are like Robert Coover's Universal Baseball Association would be if everything in it was real. Or in an alternate history line. Or a comic book. Or not not. Who can tell? "If you love baseball, you're going to love See the PEBA on $25 a Day." - John Rodriquez, Commissioner of the Planetary Extreme Baseball Alliance

Book Description
Fraud, deceit, and greed. They have already changed the face of baseball in Japan, and are threatening to engulf the sport across the world. Six seasons have passed since Casey Neal and his friend Don-o saved the game in the United States. Now Don-o is gone, and Casey is a baseball reporter who is alone and trying once again to find himself, all while immersed in a culture he doesn't understand. While he chases the story, he discovers fellow baseball fans in Japan's chief inspector Yuni Ichihara, and Diaki Matsui (a metal worker from Tokyo's industrial complex). Together they deal with such strangeness as international organized crime rings, Yōkai spirits, quantum physics, and ... well ... pickled everything. This time the stakes are global. Can Casey's team manage to save baseball once again?

Book Description
A desolate plane. A devastated order of mages. A planewalker hungry for revenge. Garrick has agreed to lead the independent Torean mages, if for no other reason than to protect them from deceit and trickery of the god-like planewalkers. But when he returns to Dorfort, he finds the high superior of the Koradictine order has kidnapped Will, the boy Garrick had taken under wing. Devastated, he vows to retrieve the boy, a choice that results in being disowned by the twisted planewalker who is his mage superior. Meanwhile, the Lectodinian order launches a winter offensive designed to gain control of magic across Adruin, and the remnants of the Koradictine leadership joust for position as they enact a desperate ploy to survive. In Changing of the Guard, Garrick is on his own as he hunts the Koradictine high superior through a trail that leads through demonic underplanes and mystical time warps. Can he survive the planes without his superior’s aid? Can he save the boy? And perhaps more important, what will remain of the orders if he survives?The results will change the face of Adruin forever.

Book Description
All eight novellas that comprise the Saga of the God-Touched Mage together for the first time. A mage's apprentice... Unnatural magic of devastating power... A clash that will change the world. Garrick enjoys the sheltered life of a mage’s apprentice until one night when he's given a terrifying new magic and discovers his superior has been assassinated. Against his will, he finds himself plunged into the depths of a magewar and embroiled in the sibling rivalries of god-like planewalkers. His need to rid himself of this magic leads Garrick to befriend Darien, a young man with a hidden past, and Sunathri, the charismatic leader of a band of independent mages. Through tangles of political intrigue and treachery, their adventures take them to ancient underground cities, a legendary mountain peak, and across the vast planes of the Thousand Worlds. With each new truth he uncovers, Garrick realizes that this new magic, and the forces behind it, will threaten the very nature of who he is. “A riveting tale of magic, death, destiny, and power.” - David B. Coe/D.B. Jackson Author of the Thieftaker Chronicles "Fast-paced, elegant, and brutal. Impossible to put down." – Amy Sterling Casil Nebula Nominated Author of Female Science Fiction Writer
