Title: The Draxler Program
He has one last chance to save his mind. Too bad it’s all a lie…
Pete Rivers is a survivor. Forced to endure an abusive childhood, he turned to a life of crime. When his cons finally caught up with him, he was given fifteen years in prison and scheduled to be brainwashed at the end of his sentence. However, when offered a loophole that reduced his prison time and kept his mind intact, he took it without thinking twice.
He soon discovers that The Draxler Program isn’t the criminal reform program he was sold; it’s a reality TV show. Like himself, the other contestants are convicted felons and their lives now rest in the hands of the voting public. The winner gets to keep their mind, while the losers are doomed to an early trip to the washer.
Does Pete have what it takes to survive the demented show, or will his brain get erased like the contestants before him?
Malcolm’s debut novel is an action-packed, psychological thriller that will keep you guessing all the way to the last page.

Title: The Abomination of Yaultan (Legend of the Ecta Mastrino Book 1)

17-year-old Edin longs for adventure. Languishing in his little of Yaultan, he is desperate to become one of the Por Fen–monks of the church whose sole job it is to hunt down and destroy magi also known as abominations for the evil their magic is.

He is soon forced from his home and must embark on a deadly journey through a wilderness full of monstrous beasts, both man and animal–with commoners and nobles alike ready to slay him at every turn.

Abigail's Targeted Tip:
End paragraphs with the strongest word or concept. At BPF, we call these cliffhanger sentences.
