STOP. You should not have touched this flyer with your bare hands. NO, don't put it down. It's too late. They're watching you. My name is David Wong. My best friend is John. Those names are fake. You might want to change yours. You may not want to know about the things you'll read on these pages, about the sauce, about Korrok, about the invasion, and the future. But it's too late. You touched the book. You're in the game. You're under the eye. The only defense is knowledge. You need to read this book, to the end. Even the part with the bratwurst. Why?

Publisher's summary
From the author of Coyote comes a reimagining of Robert Browning's classic poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came".
A would-be knight arrives at the infamous Dark Tower that he swore to find. Inside lies a game that causes Childe Roland to reflect on the oaths he took. When dark sorcery forces past regrets to come to light, the game becomes that of life and death. Childe Roland's fate hangs in the balance, but perhaps that fate was decided long ago.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

After the passage across the strait leaves a team member injured, Varka quickly realizes that this survey is far from routine and that what he thought he knew about the island was a cover for more horrifying truths.

A paranormal ghost story by the author of Legionnaire. Marcus Hunter won’t stay dead…As a pregnant fifteen year old, Autumn Fields learned firsthand that the town ghost was more than a creepy legend. Rejected by her boyfriend and beaten bloody by her father, Autumn climbed out onto the old railroad bridge to kill herself, but a mysterious figure talked her into running away instead.

Story

interesting after being a fan of Stephen King's dark tower series
it's very fascinating the similarities and differences between this and Stephen King's 9-11 book series I am a huge fan of Stephen King's version but this one also holds up extremely well and I thoroughly enjoyed it, also amazing to find dark somnium here on audible
