A.L.I.V.E.

The answer to whether or not we’re alone in the universe is about to escape.

Reports of unknown objects in the sky date back hundreds of years. But since the early twentieth century, the frequency of those reports has increased dramatically. To combat the alien threat they see looming on the horizon, the US government initiated the A.L.I.V.E. (Alien Life In Vitro Experiment) Project.Working from Wright Patterson Air Force Base, Dr. Maeve Leander has been in charge of Alvie, the first subject from the A.L.I.V.E. Project, for the last three years. But she’s been part of the project much longer—ever since she was a child and her mother ran the project. But Alvie is more than just some experimental subject. He’s family, the only family Maeve has left.When a new agency takes over the A.L.I.V.E. Projects, though, Maeve learns that Alvie wasn’t the only subject created. Caught in the middle of a giant war game, Maeve ends up in a race for her life. But this time it’s not just humans who are the combatants. As the violence increases and the chances for survival decrease, she realizes one terrifying truth: despite its name, the real goal of the projects is to make sure no one gets out alive.

Fans of Douglas E. Richards, Michael Crichton, and E.T. will love the A.L.I.V.E. Series!

What Readers are Saying:

“Loved it! Can’t wait for the next book! Loved it, Loved it! Killed it!”“When I read the description for this book, I wasn’t sure I wanted to read an “alien/UFO” story. But then I remembered how much I enjoyed reading Hominid, which is also about a subject I wasn’t sure I wanted to read. So I made the purchase and read the book, and I learned that I apparently do enjoy reading “alien/UFO” stories, at least when Brady writes about them!”

100 Percent Mortality

Estate planning is more important than you realize… and these 15 stories will inspire you to take action now!
One day, you’re going to die.

How did that statement make you feel? Were you tempted to stop reading and hide from the idea for another day?

Most of us do. We live in a world where we shy away from death – a fundamental concept of life that affects us all.

Yet that very thing prevents us from taking the actions that will allow our legacies to live on and make sure our loved ones are taken care of no matter what happens.

That’s why you started reading this, and it’s why you’re still here reading, despite how uncomfortable that sentence might have made you feel.

Think about this: If you’re not willing to think about the inevitability of death, how will you have control of what happens to your remains? How will you know that your children are looked after or that your assets go to the people you care about?

The trick is not to push the idea of death out of your mind, but instead to prepare for it – so you can keep living life to the fullest, with complete peace of mind that everything will work out as you wish when you finally reach the end.

The trick is estate planning.

It might sound like an administrative headache, but it’s really no more complicated than a set of clear instructions dictating who your assets will go to and when.

It shows your loved ones that you care about them enough to sort everything out to protect them, and it ensures that when you eventually pass and they’re already facing deep sadness and grief, they won’t find themselves in court trying to figure out exactly what it was you wanted.
