I'm looking for reviews for some of my books as well as for two of my Authors' books. Below you will find Smashwords' coupons for each book plus blurbs of said books. The coupons (100% off) are good until July 19th, 2014. I do have a small amount of hard copies of the first edition copies of some of books.
If after reading the blurbs and you are interested, please visit Smashwords and use the coupons. For those looking for a hardcopy, it's a first come first serve scenario. Worst case is I can send you a PDF. Thanks!

GEMP by J Carrell Jones

A creationist would tell you God created the Heaven, Earth, the skies above it, and everything beyond. God created Humans in His image. We are here to serve, not command.
An Evolutionist may say the Universe was created with a flash bang and that Earth is a small part of a bigger picture. We are here to insure the perpetuity of the species. We think, therefore we are.
Steve Launse thought it all academic. To him, God was a device that drove Humans to achieve. We advanced because we needed to believe. We had to believe and thus we grew. We created God, who created us.
Then, one day, the Government knocked at his door and handed him a blank check. “You can prove your theory,” they said. “I don’t play with Human emotions,” he said. They answered, “We are not talking about Humans.”
Decisions. A blank check. No restraint. No limits. What does one do?

Most of Europe and Parts of Asia were absorbed. Egypt became the dominant country from the 18th through the 20th century. The Blessed Lands embraced peace after a long bloody war with the Cursed Lands across the Atlantic Ocean. Life for most Egyptians was good.
Priest Honute was one of them. With a beautiful intelligent wife, a wonderful job and the horrible war behind him Honute, could finally enjoy his life. That is, until his wife asked for a divorce.
The question Honute would be asked, “What would you do if you could become a god?”

Coupon: KA25L
Long ago we were visited by aliens. They shared knowledge and told us stories of life. They showed us magick and made us believe. Then one day they left. We wondered what happened to them. We searched the skies. Through the years we performed "magick" hoping they would return. Epochs passed and we went searching for them to discover proof the Elders and Ancient Ones existed. Toward the end of the last war a hero fell from grace. Our journey begins here . . .
Sean Blakemore, Commander of the GRID Battlecruiser Reginald L Johnson, wallowed in self-loathing. He drank too much, suffered from depression, and swam in self-pity. He figured life could not suck any worse when he received new orders. He had to hand the Johnson over to another commanding officer. God hated him he thought. Then . . . Dr. Loggar, head scientist in charge of this new mission, drew him into the semi-secret world of The Most High Goddess. She gave him hope.
GRID Traveler Trilogy is a story of Sean’s redemption, from rock bottom to discovering Humankind’s true origins and possibly its inevitable future.
