Flying solo in the search for great reads?
You go onto your usual bookselling site, or into a brick & mortar bookstore (if you can find one), and you look forward to a wonderland of words, swimming like a swan in your own personal nirvana of literature — thinking of what you may find, and revel in cracking or clicking it open once it's home, in your hands...
And then SHITE. You're lost. So many titles, but none of which give you that flying feeling to grab n' go.
Well... Rob is attempting to navigate that foggy patch.
His titles levitate with a spine-tingling eccentricity that mark the course less traveled. Finally, something to read that will alter your trajectory, and ease your flight in the tailwind of a different, readable and memorable reading experience.

Mama says knock you out.
Sometimes the usual just isn't available, and it forces the search for an adequate substitution.
On rare occasions, what you thought merely a substitution actually redefines what you thought you wanted; what you assumed you'd settled for!
We think a selection from The Fosterical Library (a.k.a. Rob's Amazon Page) may just surprise you with something that turns your head — when you thought you wanted another something by that trendy bestselling author you assumed satisfied you!
Actual entertaining readery, with side-splitting laughsmanship, blood-pumping horrorage, eye-gouging mysteryocity, and non-stop adventury and actionage! You won't want to stop reading!
Here's a bunch of quick clicks while you're in it to win it...
RETURN TO DUNWICH
Evil is reborn. Henry Armitage, grandson of the man who vanquished the cosmic anti-deity Yog Sothoth a century ago, finds himself at Miskatonic University, in search of the mysterious Necronomicon... after surveillance cameras at his own Boston College reveal their copy being stolen – by someone bearing an unnerving resemblance to historical descriptions of Wilbur Whateley, thought to be long dead. Armitage’s fears double, when he discovers a neo-satanic faction of the U.S. Military exists in an underground annex below Miskatonic. They have located the Sleeper of R’lyeh – Cthulhu – and plan to waken, and weaponize him, to pull mankind back to the dark age of ethereal galactic rule upon the Earth! Henry Armitage must prevent the redawning of an evil from beyond the cosmic veil, aided by a monster his grandfather battled, and a rogue group of Miskatonic faculty! Rob Foster creates a modern-day Lovecraftian nightmare – soaked in future technology and ancient blood. The rational and the incredible collide in unholy battle; a tale that will keep you awake, with the lights on – to the last word, which may or may not be.
MURDER SHE LAUGHED
This book will keep you up at night… unwilling to stop reading, desperately in need to find out who survives, who gets away with the vilest of acts, and who walks away without a whisper of suspicion. Or you’ll simply lie in bed, staring into the darkness… wondering, dreading, unable to find relief even in the privacy of your own thoughts. The terrors, manmade or otherwise, are relentless in a world where blood, and alliances no matter how loyal or grudging, are cheap. Whom can you trust when surrounded by strangers with unknown intentions? Or completely alone in a landscape of peril? How confident are you of your own resourcefulness amid a maze of killers? Long lost tales of the famous and infamous dubiously light the way to your escape, in this nerve-rattling anthology. Sherlock Holmes faces his own unending nightmare in 'The Sleeper Rises,' and the forever elusive Zodiac Killer resurfaces to solve, and keep hidden, his own identity in 'Mr. A, Alias Mr. Z'… plus other spine shivering tales of horrible revelation and mind-bending visions of mysteries past and future. Stay awake! Beware of what lurks just around that dark corner.
YOU CAN RUN
"They are beyond anything you can do... except run." – 'Henry'
(last known words)
Who are they? What are they? The world of supernatural lore knows them only as "marchers." Ancient ethereal predators from beyond the veil. For centuries they have hunted humans, silently, relentlessly. With no concept of mercy, they cannot be pleaded with, and pursue their victims to the death – those whom by unholy mischief or betrayal, become marked. Once a marcher has latched on, the hunted have only one option – to run, for as long as possible, with a desperation to pass the mark onto some other unwitting soul, and hope the new victim can as well, lest the mark fall back to them after that person is caught and devoured.Troy Terrill, a young upstart in the game of paranormal investigation, finds himself the only hope of not one, but two cursed people with marchers on their trail. Can he rid them of their pursuing abominations? Can anyone? Don't dwell upon the answer too deeply, the act of pondering a marcher gives it your scent.
Rob Foster is the author of other well-reviewed novels in the humorous, science fiction and superhero genres. He lives and writes in the mysterious mountains of central California, near Sequoia National Forest.
Or perhaps you're in need of a good laugh, with a slightly fiendish funnybone? How about:
JUST WRONG
Ethan West just wants what everybody wants who struggles to succeed in Hollywood: a breakthrough, a hit – even a small one – that might change the trajectory of his years of frustration and heartbreak in the entertainment rat-race. To be in the loop! Like most, one too many bad breaks has him on the verge of throwing in the towel for good, but a chance encounter with a cult showbiz icon turns his world upside-down.
Suddenly Ethan and his tiny, loyal cadre of fellow hopefuls are shanghaied as crew on a movie-making "project" they'll never forget – if they can survive it – trapped in a jungle nightmare; armed only with video cameras and their theater brat wits; led by a fading, deranged, megalomaniac Hollywood director without a script or a grip on reality; in the path of lethal animals, rogue mercenaries and rampaging cannibals; and ordered to get it all in high-def!
As the production drifts further into surreal chaos, bloodlust and contrived 'reality,' Ethan realizes he must choose, either to follow an insane celebrity to certain doom, or possibly sacrifice his own friends to make it back to civilization – with or without a finished product in the can! Of course, it's a comedy!
Rob Foster's insanely funny novel 'JUST WRONG' will have you cringing on the floor with laughter, at a bizarre breed who will throw away friendships, morals, sense and dignity for an allusive, fleeting prize called fame.
