What makes something right? What makes it wrong? Who gets to decide? From tribal justice and sacred commandments to Enlightenment logic and AI algorithms, Ethics 101 traces the full arc of morality: how it evolved, who enforced it, and how the line between right and wrong keeps shifting with every generation. This book doesn’t preach. It just tells the story. From wolves to war criminals, prophets to protestors, and slave codes to software, JJ walks you through the real human history of ethics. Morality isn’t set in stone. It moves. And this is how we’ve been moving it.

From its Cold War debut to its modern-day skirmishes, this is the definitive story of a fighter born from the crucible of an East-West rivalry.

In Heads Will Roll, JJ tells the story of the French Revolution. This isn’t a sanitized timeline or a romanticized uprising. It’s a decade-long breakdown told from the inside, from hungry crowds to locked chambers and Enlightenment salons to execution carts. You’ll follow the fall of Louis XVI, the rise of Robespierre, the death of moderation, and the slow, grinding collapse of a world that thought it would last forever. You’ll understand why this moment changed everything and why it never really ended. This is the French Revolution, told straight.

Nina Castellano built her restaurant on precision, pride, and food meant to be eaten the moment it hits the plate. But when delivery apps start tanking her ratings, she’s forced to confront a brutal truth: incredible food doesn’t always survive the trip. Marcos Delgado has delivered nearly three thousand meals across Portland. He knows what works. He knows what fails. And he knows Sorelle’s food—no matter how beautifully made—arrives at customers’ doors broken, soggy, and disappointing. When Nina confronts him over his harsh reviews, what starts as conflict turns into collaboration.

He looked like a movie star. He sounded like the future. And for a moment, he made America believe in something again. But behind the charm, the suits, and the speeches, John F. Kennedy was walking a tightrope between legacy and rebellion. Between image and truth. Between power and the people who actually run things. JFK: The Man Who Went Off Script isn’t just another presidential biography. It’s a sharp, unflinching look at how one man stepped out of the role he was born to play and what happened when he did. From the dynastic grip of Joe Kennedy Sr.

Kevin Walker planned the perfect vacation. He triple-checked the itinerary. He printed the vouchers. He even scheduled relaxation. What he didn’t plan for was being accidentally checked in as resort staff. Instead of lounging by the pool, Kevin—and his endlessly patient wife, DeAnna—find themselves wearing trainee badges, holding clipboards, and solving emotional crises they never signed up for. From complaint desks and morale briefings to inflatable flamingo disputes and deeply personal “Lost & Found” sessions, their vacation veers wildly off course.

Kyle has built his life around the creatures most people fear—But inside the shadowy lab where he works, admiration has twisted into obsession, and the boundaries between research and containment are starting to crack. When a breach unleashes something more dangerous than even Kyle imagined, he finds himself torn between loyalty to his creations and the safety of the only person who has ever seen past his walls—Kim, a fellow researcher suddenly caught in the crossfire.

In Red vs. Blue, JJ cuts straight through the fog of American politics, tracing how we ended up with two massive political identities that nobody fully understands but everyone is expected to defend. This isn’t a policy book. It’s not a campaign book. It’s a book about labels, identity, and the long, messy history behind why the United States split itself in two.

Pumpkin Stone is a village unlike any other. Its streets wind beneath a harvest moon that never feels quite right, its lanterns glow with uneasy fire, and its people live under a shadow they dare not name. When the curse falls, neighbors vanish into the vines, their laughter twisting into silence, their faces never the same when they return.

Jack Jackson was once a rising star in college football—until one disastrous call turned him into a national punchline. When a secret government project offers him a job coaching an experimental team, Jack expects egos and dysfunction. What he gets is far worse.

He claimed descent from Genghis Khan. He claimed to fight for God. But what he really worshipped… was conquest. This is the story of Timur, the man who turned Central Asia into a slaughterhouse and ruled an empire stitched together with blood, bone, and fear. From Persia to Delhi, Baghdad to Ankara, no civilization was safe. He left cities in ash, pyramids of skulls in his wake, and a myth that outlived his empire. He defeated the Ottomans. He threatened the Ming. He wrote letters to kings and Popes while stuffing emperors in cages.
