    About this ebook

    A surgeon, his wife, and their Martian guide are embroiled in a love triangle when they search for a solution to an unsolvable problem;
    two brothers set off to find their fortune, guided by a mysterious treasure map, and are pursued by the very literal demons of their past;
    and a young enslaved woman, forced to keep her wounded captor alive to save her own skin, finds love in the most unexpected of places.

    JP Lantern

    J.P. Lantern lives in the Midwestern US, though his heart and probably some essential parts of his liver and pancreas and whatnot live metaphorically in Texas. He writes speculative science fiction short stories, novellas, and novels which he has deemed "rugged," though he would also be fine with "roughhewn" because that is a terrific and wonderfully apt word.Full of adventure and discovery, these stories examine complex people in situations fraught with conflict as they search for truth in increasingly violent and complicated worlds.
