What Kills You Makes You Stronger Clementine is a teenage girl from rural Oklahoma who hears voices. At first, it’s nothing special. Lost dogs and ice cream socials—things on local radio, complete with commercials. But when when she slips into a trance and foretells the beginning of World War III mere hours before the bombs start falling, the locals realize just how special Clem may be. Carl is a government scientist with a secret laboratory. He’s trying to figure out how to save the human race once the war ends and the radiation clears, and Clem’s special gift may be exactly what he needs. First, though, he’ll have to do a few experiments. Nothing painful, he tells her—well, not too painful, anyway. With no interest in becoming Carl’s experimental lab rat, Clem runs, leading the scientist and his cronies on a wild chase through the ruins of the American heartland. She’s almost free when one of her pursuers decides to shoot her rather than allow her to escape. Bullets tear through her chest—a fatal wound—and it looks like things are finished for young Clem, to say nothing of Carl’s grand plans to save the world and gain fame and fortune... until Clem wakes up in Carl’s secret lab a thousand years later. Well, it’s not Clementine, exactly, but she has Clem’s memories and some of her voices. Carl is there, too. In fact, now there are two of him.
White man’s power runs through copper wires. When the wire is cut, their clocks all stop, Geronimo whispers to Wylie E. Chatto, a mentally challenged young Apache man. Soon, Chatto smells rosemary—the scent of complicated things, of trouble brewing on an electric stove. Electricity is the first to go. Then gasoline. Then law and order. The Sacred Alarm Clock doesn’t tick. It rides in on an influenza strain called New Flu. It starts with nausea but soon goes to the brain and puts the victim into a Spanish Inquisition frame of mind. Civilization‘s last hope lies in the hands of people who never quite fit into the old world. People like Chatto, who saw the whole thing coming in a vision; Mona and Chris, star-crossed lovers hiking across a ravaged countryside in search of civilization; Karma and Joseph, a pair of outcast teenagers who find themselves at odds with a city full of wild dogs and crazy people; and Mary, who forages for food and ammunition across a derelict urban landscape while avoiding gangs intent on her rape and murder.
When a mother is struck by lightning in the early stages of pregnancy, is it any wonder her child is a little strange? Glenna Anoli is a beautiful teenage girl who hardly ever talks, and when she does, it’s mostly to companions only she can see. She calls them Shiners. People think it’s all in her head, but they’re more real than anyone could imagine. They come to Glenna’s aid whenever she’s in trouble. And she’s in trouble a lot. Predators are drawn to her as moths to a flame, but lightning has a tendency to strike those who seek to do her harm. It’s a mystery, but one that makes her that much more alluring to the good and the evil alike. When Glenna finds herself entangled with a drug-addicted preacher who believes she holds the key to an ancient prophecy, her journey takes her from the red dirt of Oklahoma to the beating green heart of the Amazon rainforest. Friendship, love, and a powerful connection to the native Gurani people await her there, along with a mystery of near Biblical proportions. Together with her loyal Shiners, she uncovers long-buried secrets, dispels the darkness of a decades-old murder, and reclaims stolen land. Transformed from a mysterious young woman to a deity revered by the Gurani, and ultimately, an internet sensation, she becomes a beacon of hope in the digital age.Prepare to be spellbound by a tale of magic, mystery, and the enduring power of the human spirit in the most unexpected of places.
Trickery is magic until you figure out how it’s done. Richard Harjo’s job is to counsel death row inmates in Oklahoma’s notorious McAlester Prison. That usually consists of convincing them heaven is a sort of afterlife work release program, and God is the most gullible parole officer ever. All they’ve got to do to qualify is have faith as they walk quietly to the execution chamber. No wonder Richard has lost faith in all things supernatural. Everything changes when he meets a Choctaw murderer named Holabi Minco. Native guards say the inmate is a witch… and they might be right. He keeps a popsicle stick calendar in his cell that tells when people are going to die and does so more accurately than the DOC roster. Minco befriends Richard and sends him on a series of extralegal missions to give him insight into the lives of the other death row inmates. The chaplain crosses paths with a pole dancer, white supremacists, and a secret town full of outlaws that isn’t on any official map. What’s alway been a humdrum, hypocritical life is suddenly an adventure. When Holabi Minco’s beautiful daughter, Kinta, enters the picture, Richard is hooked. He quickly finds himself drawn into a complicated plot to break her father out of prison. It involves a slice of something called Dead’n’berried pie, a shoot out on the prison parking lot, and a disappearing act that looks too much like magic. Who could possibly resist?

Morgan rolls quietly into Humble Creek, and upon meeting Faith, is taken with her striking eyes, and calm strength. Through life has hardened him to the idea of love, he is emotionally drawn to the softhearted Faith. Both are aware of their deep attraction, but Morgan knows the world will not accept their being together. Finally, he takes a risk and come up with a plan that could bring them together or destroy them.
