The dead are rising. Reports of rioting and mob violence begin to appear in the news as more and more major cities go silent. The CDC and FEMA are powerless to stop the spread of the deadly “Reaper Virus”. Rumors fly about the nature of the “rioters”, claiming that the dead have risen to prey on the living. In the Midwest city of Springfield, Missouri, all law enforcement officers are called to report for duty. Corrections Officer Wylie Grant is sent into the field only to discover for himself that they are facing the living dead.

Months have passed, the trail has grown cold, and ZC has all but given up when out of the blue, a back road diversion leads him to the mystical, but apparently not mythical Bizarre - a place where all kinds of beings want all kinds of things...and barter and gamble to get them. He's about to meet some utterly strange new friends, including a dogman named Ekos, a human-like woman with a nest of serpents for a head, and a gigantic bat-dragon that doesn't like being referred to as either.

In Ghost in the Sky, the first installment in the Bob the Interdimensional Trucker series, Sam Gage has picked up an enigmatic motorist whose mere presence, it seems, is making Gage hear the sound of a small propeller-driven passenger airplane...or maybe even a crop duster.

Life wasn't easy on Andela. If you happen to be a fire dragon, like Zeira, status in the eyes of your peers is everything. However, when you possess a unique delivery system for your pyrotechnical abilities, public gatherings become situations to avoid. When an unknown force begins to threaten the peace they have with their neighbors, Zeira decides to answer her king's call for help. After all, if she could just find herself a kai, then perhaps, with the help of her rider, she could overcome her...disability and earn the status she so desperately craved.

In these two "inspired by actual accounts" but still entirely fictional tales, a pair of challengers of the unknown go one on one with two of the world's most famous mysterious legends. In "Beneath Still Waters", a lake-dwelling giant creature draws a devoted paranormal investigator into a staggering encounter that goes far beyond a blurry photo of something with a long neck and humps passing by a Loch Ness excursion boat.

Aurora Hayes is probably the most agreeable and least judgmental of the Roads Unlimited driving team, but even she has her limits. When something that sure looks like the scary bipedal "myth" called the chupacabra races in out of the darkness in North Texas and jumps aboard her rig, Aurora finds herself stuck with the edgy, bug-eyed little monster on a long haul across the South to Florida. But dealing with the freakish creature, which appears to have no language and seems determined to stay with the truck, is just the warm-up: The thing's master arrives.

He entered the game in a blinding flash of light. He had no memory of who he was, where he came from, or why he was here. Where was here, anyway?
