Gabe is the fourth book in The Balance series - a collection of paranormal thrillers dealing with the unseen world of balancing powers. Too often life is viewed in terms of good and evil, black or white, and the balance point tipping in either direction is ignored. Why should the afterlife be any different? We are given a choice when we die to move on to the Source, stay on earth and slowly evolve into more of what we were (good people become angels and bad people become demons), or a chosen few can work to keep the Balance between them. The title character Gabe is such a warrior who works to maintain that balance. Zeus has moved on to the Source and left his friends behind to cope and heal as best they can. Gabe still carries the darkness that Ammit left inside him during her battle with the Balance. The darkness has brought the anger of his passing and the loss of his wife Cassy bubbling to the surface where it boils, threatening to consume him. Harmony requests that Gabe purge himself of his darkness before she loses him as a soldier. Gabe asks his old friend and parolee Lucifer to aid him in his personal quest, while Grey helps the Lone Riders and Dante search for their missing leader Bulldog. The novel is written in two styles. Each chapter begins in a soliloquy from the title character Gabe, where he tells pieces of his backstory intertwined with philosophical musings on his family, friends, life and dealing with loss, with the following bulk of the chapter told in a third person narrative.

The Lady Gale is like many married women. She cooks, cleans, cares for her husband the Great Sir William, and does her best to stem the tide of domestic chaos that is always looming. To her homeland, the kingdom of Thistledown, she is no more than "The Knight's Wife," but in fact she is much, much more. For the length of their twenty year marriage, Gale has kept her husband, the legendary Sir William from being, slashed, beaten, barbecued, fried, murdered, and ingested by the various monsters that would threaten the safety of Thistledown. Sir William is nearly blind, yet the king and peasants have no clue of their hero's handicap. Gale has done her best to keep it that way, until one freak occurrence threatens to ruin her two decades long charade. The Great Sir William is unaware that his wife is anything but the good housewife and woods woman she has let him see her as for over twenty years. Gale was raised in the woods by her father and taught how to fight and track better than most knights could ever dream of. She allows love to guide her, but sometimes love can distract as well as guide. A lesson the Lady Gale learns much to her chagrin.

Have you ever walked past a window and seen something out of the corner of your eye that you knew couldn't be there, but you go back to check and it's gone? What if it wasn't gone? What if it was still there? What if you could walk out your door and interact with it? And what if you couldn't go back? This is the story of Erik. He is a young man who did just that. He walked through a doorway into another world and now he cannot return home. Every door he walks through could be the one that leads him back home, but the years he has spent searching have not yielded that result. Compounding matters are the Dark Lights, creatures more akin to gods than sentient man, that chase Erik as a result of his trespassing into other worlds. Follow Erik along on his travels, and allow his spastic wit to keep you company while he compares the cosmos to pop culture, falls in love, examines the concepts of fear, desire, anger, compassion, courage, and the entire gamut of the human experience. Open a door onto another world, and run!

Autism: a word that has so many meanings and variants yet, without a single source to blame, it is also a word which has been used so frequently as of late that it has also become nearly meaningless.

It is the story of autism as seen through her eyes - seen through a fog.

Grey is a paranormal thriller dealing with the unseen world of balancing powers.
