Ron Glick Launches Oz-Wonderland Series by BWW News Desk
- December 14, 2015 Three years ago, fantasy author Ron Glick introduced the world to the re-envisioned classic Oz-Wonderland Series. But after Dorothy Gale and Alice Liddell saved three faery realms, what else might the Cheshire Cat have planned for them?
In the first three books of the Oz-Wonderland Series, the Wicked Witches returned with secrets - including a mysterious past that linked them to Wonderland and the Looking Glass World. But even after saving these fragmented realms from destruction, Alice Liddell and Dorothy Gale found themselves confronted with an even greater mystery - at least two other shards needed to be found before Wonderland could be fully restored.
Now the series resumes with 'The Marvelous Neverland of Oz,' where the March Hare leads a renegade army from Wonderland rampaging across Oz, Mombi plots to bring even more chaos in an effort to escape, and Glinda must delve into her own past. And as three magical realms seek to find balance, an eternally young boy makes his way to Oz with secrets of yet another faery world - Neverland.
The Oz-Wonderland series has been by far Ron Glick's most well-received series. Now, with the fourth book expanding to include the mythology of Peter Pan, Tinker Bell and Neverland, Glick sets the stage for even greater adventures. With a faithful eye to the original Baum, Carroll and Barrie classics, The Marvelous Neverland of Oz launches the next exciting chapter in the modern classic Oz-Wonderland series.
'This book has had me on edge and now it's torturing me! You've got to read this book! I give it a rating of 10 out of 10 as it has literally got me wanting more!' - L. Allison Burres, on 'The Wizard In Wonderland'
Ron Glick (born January 20, 1969) is a community activist, and is presently active in several charitable enterprises. He currently lives in Kalispell, MT. He is the author of The Godslayer Cycle, Chaos Rising , Oz-Wonderland, and Ron El's Comic Book Trivia series, as well as founding the Golden Age Preservation Project. He loves contact and welcomes input on his work through his website, http://ronglick.com.

WITHOUT SHAME is Now Available by BWW News Desk
- December 11, 2015 FB Publishing has released the debut novel of Katherine Russell, a Buffalo, NY writer who takes a critical look at cultural interaction through the 'white savior' archetype. Set in East Pakistan, what is now Bangladesh, this neocolonial novel begins as tensions between East and West Pakistan culminate, at the brink of the revolution. Without Shame is now available for purchase in all bookstores in paperback or ebook format.
'Without Shame' is a love story at its core - but not in the traditional sense. It's about love of one's country, culture, God, and language. It's about the power of identity to shine through when other forces threaten to overshadow it.
In 1968 East Pakistan, in a village called Madhukhali, shame is a virtue Sariyah never mastered. She yearns to join a movement with her fellow Bengalis, who are gripping onto their language and cultural identity against neocolonial powers - but she is continuously sucked into the narrow visions of her father. Enter Rodney Creed, who bursts into this world with the overconfidence and naïveté of a college graduate, too eager to sense the rumbling ground beneath him - until he meets Sariyah. Rodney believes he is there to teach, but he will learn painful, irreversible things.
'Without Shame' is available for purchase everywhere books are sold. For book excerpts, author events and much more, please visit www.katherinekeepswriting.com or www.facebook.com/authorKatherineRussell.
