Ray Taylor – an average school boy from a small town who, to his great disappointment and regret, happens to be below average in height – is growing up with his pediatric nurse mother, and without a father, whom he misses very much. Pestered by the bully Murray and his pals, he is saved from the daily grind of school routine by his love of drawing, something that his sketch-filled notebook and the constant complaints of his teachers attest to. But there is a special secret that he can only entrust to his best friend, retriever Buddy. Yet there is something that beckons him even more than his artwork, and his first, timid infatuation with his classmate Jane – that is the search for infinite treasures. By a stroke fate, having been detained in the home of a strange elderly neighbor, Ray finds himself in the company of 17th century cutthroats and takes his place as the seventh and, as it so happens, missing member of a crew of pirates. On board of the schooner Celestine, Ray sets off on dangerous and captivating adventures across the seven, in no way resembling each other, distant worlds, in search of the seven glowing magical stones hidden there. It is these magical stones that, instead of seven keys, open the seven chests that lie undisturbed in a grotto on a mysterious, paradise-like island of Tuki-Tuki, on the bottom of which repose the seven parts of the torn and tattered map of the buried treasures. The legends promise the daredevils, who have reached the grotto, treasures fit not just for a single king, but enough to satisfy the desires of an entire hundred kings. Their way is guided by the dead Bloodthirsty Cook himself, through the pages of his Secret Book. Battling the devils in hell, at cards, bad-mouthing and cursing Captian Archie and his crew, Cook reveals to Archie each new step, but only after Archie undergoes ordeals, on dry land and on the high seas. Crowning all of these is the puzzle of Cook himself. Where should they sail to and where should they search? All the hidden answers would be revealed in The Secret Book, if only all of its pages weren't left entirely blank... "Ray Taylor's adventure completely sucked me in! As a mom of two boys who never sit still, I could totally relate to Ray's teacher complaints about his constant drawing. Poor kid, dealing with bullies and being shorter than everyone while missing his dad broke my heart. The whole idea of traveling through seven different worlds searching for treasure was so creative. Definitely recommending this to my book club next month!" - Amazon.com Ready to join Ray on a journey across seven worlds, through danger, magic, and mystery?

Silver Medal Winner for Best Adult Fiction Anthology, 2021, Readers Favorite Book Awards Hollywood and Broadway are icons of the American Dream. But what happens to those who feed off that dream? Just as drug cartels have many underlings, who must get paid along the journey to the addicts, so do the characters who need to be nourished by the luminaries who make up this star-studded world above us. James Musgrave’s collection of eleven stories, in many ways, addresses the theme of “star power,” but in a way that satirizes the stereotypical “Hollywood endings” in very unique and literary ways. This collection has a remedy for the past year’s traumas caused by a worldwide pandemic.
"Entering the consciousness of a reader is the most sacred enterprise an author can have. These stories have been collected as my Zen reflection during the past year’s COVID-19 plague. This shamanistic mental state, which the Japanese term “Mushin,” or “no-mind” is close to the stream-of-consciousness technique that Henry James, Virginia Woolf, Jack Kerouac, James Joyce, and William Faulkner used to such success. However, it is also a form of channeling that defies definition. This is the mystical realm that creatives around the world know so well, and we worship at its altar every day we put fingers to keys or pen to paper. I want to thank readers who enjoy dark stories, as in this age of political correctness and what publishers often term “accessibility,” it is becoming more difficult for us authors, especially us authors who don’t make a lot of money from our work, to find an audience. I will go out on a limb and say that if the author does make a lot of money from a dark story, he/she will get marketing to back him/her up to ride the tide of money to the bank. If you ride this wave of Gustav and all the other characters in my collection, then thanks for that. It’s been a tough year for all of us. Bless you." --James Musgrave
"Superbly dark and un-put-down-able. This was a new type of work from the author, and I really felt drawn to his compilation of eleven dark stories. Each story is so engrossing, it brings you right in the middle of the story. This collection is more than just words on a page. It is a very well-written story, and I enjoyed it." Amazon.com "For a writer, getting inside the reader’s mind is the holy grail of the craft. In Valley of the Dogs, a collection of eleven dark short stories, author Jim Musgrave has invaded most of our minds and left an impression that will linger long after we close the book and stick it on our ‘to be read again someday’ shelf. If you’re looking for a good book to curl up with when the wind’s blowing outside and the sky is gunmetal gray and depressing, this is what I would prescribe." Amazon.com " Wow! Great stories, definitely dark, but also great! I enjoyed all of these stories, but some of them hit you hard, very hard. The writer is very skilled at his craft, and I can't wait to read more stories out of his wonderful imagination." Amazon.com

Think you're living in an environmental dystopia? That's where the story begins and it doesn't get any less wild. At once ridiculous and chilling, rising surrealist talent Freddy F. Fonseca explores the dark, porky underbelly beneath humanity's seemingly ever-more-virtuous race toward sustainability - and the genius puppet-masters who watch our feeble bamboo-straw-buying attempts and smile, while flattening another rainforest. Oh yeah, and there's our hero. The last remaining pig on Earth just happened to be blessed with superpowers. Which he would use to avenge the extermination of his species, were he not to get tangled up in an all-too-human web of greed, lust, and indifference. The anarchic and ambitious Heart of Swine has breath-taking scope and a wry, not totally resigned smile. It incautiously pulls away the covers to reveal how half-assed humanity's efforts to clean up after itself have been. It's funny and coarse, sure, but the writer is deadly serious. The epic failures we continue to see around the world on a personal and political level are taken to frightening lengths. And reading Heart of Swine is like a Rorschach test for one's outlook on the future - although it's hard to think, especially after finishing this book, that everything's going to be just fine. Customer reviews "Really enjoyed reading Heart of swine. It's an eye-opening experience towards our contemporary society. Written in a great literary work exposing our societies vices and follies." Amazon.com "Exaggerated and yet so believable. Themes and characters are great and reflect much of the modern concerns. I particularly liked the commentary, so hard and honest. The narrative is fluid and makes me never want to stop reading it." Amazon.com

However, there is but a couple of days left on this planet before everything dies, and he desperately needs to get back to his time.
