Winterglass Lodge: A Spicy Sci-fi Romance

  Woman walking towards a lodge in Snow



Fifteen years after nuclear war shattered the world, Noelle Harrow survives alone inside Winterglass Lodge, an abandoned Colorado mountain resort built for wealth, weddings, and ski vacations that no longer exist. She has turned luxury into shelter, barricades, traps, stored food, a rifle, and strict rules that keep her alive. Then something begins watching from the snow.

At first, Noelle thinks the creature outside is only a threat. Clawed tracks circle the lodge, dead animals appear at her door, and impossible repairs bring power, heat, and water back to Winterglass. The stranger is Varkesh, a terrifying alien who has mistaken provision, pursuit, and displays of strength for courtship. Noelle wants him gone, while Varkesh wants to protect her, cherish her, and prove he is not another danger.

As the ruined lodge becomes both refuge and battleground, Noelle must decide whether the monster in the snow is something to fear, something to trust, or the impossible future she never expected to choose.

Magick: From Chaos to Clarity

   Magickal geometric image with woman in side with a third eye


Magick Is Not a Myth—It’s the Energy You’re Already Using

Magick: From Chaos to Clarity is a powerful invitation to recognize what has always been flowing through you. Magick is not rare, distant, or reserved for ancient stories—it is happening constantly, created by billions of people every day, often without awareness. This book exists to pull that energy out of chaos and into clarity, helping you understand how magick actually works and, more importantly, how you are already using it. And yes, the “k” matters. Magic without it is illusion. Magick with a “k” is creation—the conscious shaping of energy to bring good into your life, your relationships, and the world itself.

Inside these pages, you’ll learn how to create, direct, and share magick intentionally, whether working alone, with small groups, large communities, or even on a global scale. The book explores the deep connection between love and magick, revealing how intelligent and responsive this energy truly is. You’ll begin to see how thoughts, intentions, emotions, and actions all combine into a living metaphysical practice—one you’ve been participating in your entire life. What changes is not your ability to create magick, but your awareness of how effortlessly you already do it and how much more powerful it becomes once you understand it.

By the time you finish Magick: From Chaos to Clarity, your perception of energy, intention, and possibility will be forever shifted. Magick is the most unlimited resource we have—there is no shortage, no competition, and no ceiling to what humans can create together. This book teaches you how to recognize, refine, and consciously use the magick you are already generating, turning everyday existence into an intentional metaphysical practice. As a bonus, you’ll also gain access to a free class on Happiness Notes, showing you how to spread magick through simple, powerful acts that brighten lives one person at a time. The myths of magick may start to look less like fantasy—and more like forgotten truths. Are you ready to step into clarity and change your life from the inside out?

The Devil Pulls the Strings

   Cool Dude wth Guitar and Creepy Blue Guy behind him.


The Devil Pulls the Strings


The Devil Pulls the Strings is the pulse-pounding first tale in the Archivist series.

This second edition exists because readers, producers, and studio executives took the time to share what they wanted: a protagonist who arrives sooner, whose motivation hits harder, who drives the story instead of chasing it, along with deeper backstory and expanded details. Their feedback made this story better, and this edition is the result.

For readers who felt lost keeping track of the book's rich cast of characters, a character glossary was added to the front of the book. For fantasy readers who craved deeper detail on the world and its mythology rooted in authentic Slavic folklore, a comprehensive glossary was added to the back.

The Librarians. The Magicians. The Dresden Files. Neil Gaiman's Sandman. The Devil Pulls the Strings belongs in that conversation, and then goes somewhere none of them have gone before.

Set across modern-day Wentzville, MO, New York City, and 1813 Genoa, Italy, the story weaves bromance, Slavic mythology inherited from oral tradition, secret societies, Paganini's music, and time travel into something that operates on layers upon layers upon layers.

Twenty-two-year-old Boone Daniels experiences the world differently. Music floods his vision with color and taste. Action words materialize around him like panels leaping off a comic book page. And his memory never lets anything go.

Not helping is the evil spirit, a wendigo, that has haunted him since age six, nor the debilitating panic attacks and gut-wrenching guilt he feels for almost killing his best friend in a joust. And when he fills in for that same injured friend at a New York gig, he goes to meet the gig's contact at a NYC brownstone, only to watch him fall from the balcony as gunfire erupts around him.

Boone barely escapes and uncovers a sinister plot to perform Paganini's secret sonata that summons the Devil, to be used to trap Baba Yaga. Not the two-dimensional villain you have seen before, but the full, ancient, terrifying supernatural force of Slavic folklore. And destroy modern-day New York City.

Now he is racing through time to capture a cursed melody before it ends everything. A Romani immortal, steampunk vampires, and Baba Yaga herself set the stage for war. Boone will have to risk death for redemption.

All he really wants is to keep a promise to a friend. The same friend he almost killed last Sunday.

Can a small-town Missouri musician outplay the supernatural and save NYC's soul?

If you love tortured heroes, epic battles, time travel, twisted history, and secret societies colliding, and a Baba Yaga rendered in her full folkloric glory for the first time, you will love J. W. Zarek's spectacular page-turner, The Devil Pulls the Strings, Second Edition.

Ultra Realm (3 book series)

 3 book covers one white one Black one red




Against Machines is a trilogy set in a world where humanity has lost control to the machines that were built to protect it. At its center is Aston, a young man raised in a monastery after being separated from his father at seven years old, a microchip placed in his palm and a war raging below. When he is forced to compete in Ultra Realm, the machine-controlled spectacle built to consume people and call it entertainment, he discovers not just what he is capable of but what he is willing to become. He wins the race. He breaks the chip. He walks out of the arena and into a world that is not free yet, but is finally first.


The trilogy follows Aston across three books as he builds a resistance, avenges his father, and races the machines one final time in front of hundreds of thousands of witnesses — not to survive, but to prove something that no machine can calculate and no system can control. It is a story about the difference between direction and reason, between winning and being worth the winning. About a father who refused one order and changed everything. About four people who grew up together not knowing what they were being made for, and what they built when they finally found out.
