UniBook Book Release: The Adventures of Dotey Sanchez in the Search for the Source

UniBook is proud to announce the publication of Zurishaddai’s book, The Adventures of Dotey Sanchez in the Search for the Source.

 This is the third in the Martianz Trilogy – a story of colonization, exploration and of human discovery. The story begins with the reincarnation of Dotey Sanchez and follows his path of re-discovery not just of himself, but of the source of human existence and love.

 For the narrator in this story, love is an experience that transcends generations and centuries. His relationships have unfolded and persisted despite the corporeal limitations of physical life and distance. The descriptions of Zurishaddai’s relationships are at the same time sweetly innocent and terrifying in their implications.

 The Martianz Trilogy is part science fiction and part political and technological commentary. It blends the utopian concepts of modern science fiction with the harsh reality and precariousness of the lives we lead every day. The reader is provided much more than a litany of technological marvels to wonder about; instead Zurishaddai provides a new perspective on our basic assumptions about freedom, religion, and what it’s all about.

 The mysterious Zurishaddai is an author of exceptional talent, and UniBook is proud to play a part in bringing his artistic and technological vision to the public through the publication of this series of books.

UniBook Book Release: The Republic of Marz

UniBook is proud to announce the publication of Zurishaddai’s book, The Republic of Marz.

The Republic of Marz is the second in the Martianz Trilogy – a story of colonization, exploration and of human discovery. The story begins with an apocalyptic meteor shower on the Earth; or, as Zurishaddai refers to it, “the third planet.”

UniBook Book Release: The Passive Voice by Zurishaddai

UniBook is proud to announce the publication of Zurishaddai’s book, The Passive Voice.

Written as part Science Fiction, and part political and technological commentary, The Passive Voice is the first in the Martianz Trilogy – a story of colonization, exploration and of human discovery. The story follows the life of a man from 16th century England to the 21st Century establishment of human colonies on another planet.

In The Passive Voice, the author masterfully contrasts the future of our world with its past; blending the two seemingly unrelated lifestyles and technological circumstances with a plotline that transcends the apparent gulf of centuries and exposes the more fundamental truths of the human predicament.

The mysterious Zurishaddai is an author of exceptional talent, and UniBook is proud to play a part in bringing his artistic and technological vision to the public through the publication of this series of books.

The empty nest syndrome was the start of her downfall, but the memories of her childhood are what brought her to attempting suicide and contacting Dr. Phil.

UniBook Book Release: ATL Jail: Untold Stories

UniBook is proud to announce the publication of Officer CC’s book, ATL Jail: Untold Stories

For many people who dwell in the “scribbling arts”, stories about prisons and jails involve glamorized plots woven by story masters who have degrees from prestigious Universities – and precisely zero personal experience with a real jail setting. They learn about prisons and jails from the same sources as the rest of us: newspapers, television, movies and books. 

A Peek Into Another World 

ATL Jail: Untold Stories is a non-fiction work that takes the reader on an inside tour of the life and lifestyle of a big city jail system corrections officer. The setting is the City of Atlanta Jail System. The Officer’s name is “CC”, and the dramas, corruption, and danger are real. This is the type of world most people never know; never have the opportunity to see first-hand, but are curious about nonetheless. 

An Authentic Book 

In writing circles, authenticity of voice is often promoted as one of the most important aspects of developing a story. ATL Jail: Untold Stories takes the goal of authenticity to a level rarely seen in a published book. The reader hears first-hand how a big city corrections officer speaks through words on the page.

 ATL Jail: Untold Stories is a book that may be challenging for some to read. It contains grammar that is not consistent with any published style guidelines. But as the reader dives into the book, he or she realizes that the story couldn’t really be told any other way, and it is a story that will not be forgotten. 

To learn more about “ATL Jail: Untold Stories,” read an excerpt, or purchase a review copy, visit http://www.unibook.com/unibook/site/bookdetail/?bookid=6985.

 About CC: CC is a native of Atlanta, Ga. The proud parent of one daughter and her adopted cousin. Before working with corrections, she worked as a dental assistant for 12 years and she retired from the Atlanta Jail in 2006. CC is a person of faith who enjoys reading, writing, and personal organization.

UniBook Book Release: Forbidden Fruit

UniBook is proud to announce the publication of Jonathan Staley’s book, Forbidden Fruit

Set in urban Detroit, this fast-paced suspense novel tells the story of Jackson Stone – a successful criminal defense attorney for one of the city’s biggest law firms. Stone’s career and life are put in jeopardy when his boss is accused of murder and Jackson is ordered to defend him. 

The book weaves masterfully through a series of intricate personal relationships and plot twists as the defense attorney balances his relationship with his lover, his responsibility to his client, and the discovery of a conspiracy that could destroy them all. 

Although the book falls squarely in the “Legal Drama” category, the quick read and sometimes racy content make it enjoyable for any Suspense, Mystery, or General Fiction reader. 

UniBook is proud to play a part in launching this debut author. Stay tuned for his upcoming novels: Recoil, and Chief of Staff
