Left on Paradise by Kirk Adams (20 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

Before Portland, there was Paradise. Following the stolen presidential election of 2000, 102 intrepid progressives, led by self-absorbed Hollywood star Ryan Godson and his kind-hearted wife Kit Fairchild, make good on their threat to abandon a corrupted society still under the spell of Puritan fanatics, Yankee traders, and southern slavers. Now, a new society will be founded: a new country among the nations. This will be a land in which feminists, liberals, environmentalists, multiculturalists, pacifists, socialists, communists, communitarians, and progressives of every persuasion will remain unthwarted by the opposition and oppression of Republicans, social conservatives, and constitutionalists. Left on Paradise is a sweeping epic about a band of idealists who have forsaken family and friend to build a perfect word on a remote island in the south Pacific. From the thrill of first hope to the brink of deadly catastrophe, Kirk Adams relentlessly puts the band of idealists in a world in which they can live out the iron logic of their beliefs and dreams -- unencumbered by conservative resistance or religious restraint. Yet, they bring to Paradise the moral limits of their own ideals and character and soon find that they themselves have brought evil to their Eden. With riveting twists and turns in the plot that mirror contemporary (and historical) American political experience, the author shares political fiction that speaks to the cultural questions and divisions that contemporary Americans face, even as he offers a vision of what must not be sought. It's May 2001 and the band of political pilgrims have sailed to a remote island in the Pacific to found a new country: a true State of Paradise. Numbering the same as the settlers of Plymouth and Jamestown, the idealists have marched straight out of the 1960s to build the Great Society suspended by Nixon, Reagan, and the Bush family. These pilgrims will show the world what it means to be Left on Paradise -- or so they ...

Eric's problem is that he's at war with nearly every woman in his life at the very moment he has grown to desire nothing more than the love of one girl. That is, his mother assigns him never-ending chores, his aunt taunts him as a male chauvinist piglet, and his sisters protest his frequent tinkling on the toilet seat. Most of all, he must face down classmate and nemesis Skinnydip -- who stands between Eric and the new girl to the neighborhood, the beautiful Lori Bloom.

Videos, pictures, photos: frame upon frame, Rushing by in millions, all so different, yet, so much the same: Like me, love me: oh, say you hold me dear! The miles between us may count far, but if you see me, I am near. I have no time to wait, no second to waste, Life is short, so if it helps, I'll give you a taste: Here I am, alone in the dark, I'm lost just like you, I'll show you everything; you want to see it; I know you do! To be wanted, to be desired, that's life, can't you see? Show me yours, I'll show you mine, for a second yours I'll be, For a moment, though, but not forever, You're but one, so many more have never seen me: not ever. You'll find them too, they're just around the corner, When I leave you, surrender your soul and you'll find them sooner, Oh, you pretty boy with golden hair, I shan't forget your dark blue eyes until I see another pair! Find your joy in the embrace of another, Just like us, it will be forever, but, alas!, you won't remember. Don't be sad, you're only sixteen, don't let your glee for life fade, Who knows, maybe we'll meet again, Niederlager Schade! ---------- Hiya! Welcome to the WOW world! WOW stands for Worldwide Optimized Wellbeing, of course, silly! After we'd conquered all the challenges of the modern world: sustainability, injustice, war - we turned to ourselves - we wanted humankind to be the best that it could ever be - we wanted to be our own best life coaches - our own most inspiring influencers - we wanted to be happy - all the time - forever! We wanted to feel like Gods! Nah, we wanted to be Gods! A new technology had enabled us to naturally align and optimize human hormones and neurotransmitters by using simple electromagnetic fields and electric relays - all at the tap of a touchscreen!

Naimisha - God's Own Story - The Middle Game : Moves & Counter Moves by Sesha (Notion Press) (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

MOVES & COUNTERMOVES Animish, the disciple teetering between scepticism and awe around Krishna's divinity, inherits his Master's mantle as the latter proceeds to Badari to pursue his self-realisation goals. Asareer's belief solidifies, and divine anecdotes about Krishna continue to enthral him. While the chasm between the viewpoints of both friends keeps widening, Krishna attains a God-like stature and comes to be feared by his opponents and revered by his devotees and sages alike. Meanwhile, rivalries explode between cousins. Kauravas, led by the determined Duryodhana, manipulate the king to their advantage while Pandavas fight for survival. Draupadi's entrance, forging a solid alliance between Pandavas and the powerful Panchala kingdom, adds a new twist to the story. And, through it all, the enigmatic Krishna emerges as the central figure, unfolding his own fascinating tryst with destiny. The game of one-up-manship between Kauavas and Pandavas, which resembled the opening stage of a chess game to Animish during the graduation ceremony of princes, moves into the next stage, the middle game. Kauravas and Pandavas were entangled in a prolonged fight over the chessboard of fate, with advantage shifting back and forth like in a bitter middle game of chess that does not produce a clear winner. Find inside the dramatic events of Krishna's battles with Jarasandha, the setting up of the Dwaraka kingdom, Draupadi's Swayamvara and her unconventional polyandrous marriage, the rise and fall of Indraprastha Empire, multiple marriages and battles of Krishna, the fortune-turning dice game where a wife was put on stake, and a host of other exciting events. Join Animish and Asareer, two good friends who disagree on matters of faith, to watch the enthralling moves and countermoves in the intricate middle phase of the story and analyse for yourself which moves are blunders and which ones are brilliancies. What did destiny ordain for the kings who thought they were players ...

Keepsakes of Grief: Poetry Noir 2004 - 2011 by Stephen Donald Huff Price verified 4 hours ago

I heard the call, the tone of it teasing, a broadcast chorus of incessant singing amid devilish choirs of insidious patter, the dry rasping of scales and portentous matter to cast shadows of sounds among us that must listen, beyond maddened distraction, inaudible vision. For I heard the call, the lies of it pleasing, then I followed it blindly where it would lead me. Beyond death and disaster through ranges of never, I learned listening is ruin and blindness is error. I cursed blackness of bruises, I despised the tender of capital expenditures and I as the lender. I heard the call, and I hated its message, for pipedream pursuits earn the wickedest of blessings, and the laziest among us are perhaps the smartest. The happiest of our number is the unhappy artist; they too quickly learned how nothing is of matter - not the singers, not the choir, not the subject of the patter. Often, the most popular modern poetry demonstrates a determined morbidity, and many of our most beloved poets perished by their own hands. Doing so, they left behind countless keepsakes of grief, but I will not label their passage as 'tragic'. I believe a martyr's suffering demands happy witness. Otherwise, why hang upon a cross?

Prophets Rule: The Ages To Come by Joseph Dulmage (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

The ages to come are revealed in the writings of the prophets. Bible students study with earnest expectation to comprehend God's coming wonders. Scripture warns that no prophecy is of private interpretation; therefore, we pray God saves us from our own imaginations. Nevertheless, understanding prophecy is ever more important as we see the day approaching. Prophets Rule provides commentary on the nine Minor Prophets whose ministries took place prior to Judah's Babylonian captivity. Although these prophets wrote around 700-500 BC, major parts of their conversation concern future events surrounding the Day of the Lord: Tribulation, Jesus' Second Advent, and the Millennium. This makes the Minor Prophets extremely relevant for Christians today.

For six months, the state of Michigan was terrorized by a man named Mark Charles Cloyd. During that time, nine women were taken. Of the nine, six were murdered, one was rescued, and two, ten years later, are still missing, presumed dead.

Cloyd, who was never captured, either made some big life changes or this was one helluva horrible coincidence. But Tillery didn't believe in coincidences, horrible or otherwise, and she didn't believe in big life changes. What she did believe, was that the killer was either a member of law enforcement or one of the two missing victims. She unconsciously crossed her fingers and hoped for the former.

Siren's Song: The Allure of War by Antonio M. Salinas (33 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

"First you will come to the Sirens who enchant all who come near them. If anyone unwarily draws in too close and hears the singing of the Sirens, his wife and children will never welcome him home again, for they sit in a green field and warble him to death with the sweetness of their song. "There is a great heap of dead men's bones lying all around, with the flesh still rotting off them. Therefore pass these Sirens by, and stop your men's ears with wax that none of them may hear." (Odyssey. Book 12, 188-191). Everyone dreams. However, some of us dream about a nightmare that is a timeless character in civilization: war. The Siren's Song of war has a hold upon much of mankind, in that some of us are drawn to it like nothing else. Some of us fantasize about this experience called war. We read books, watch movies, and play video games about combat. Some wonder if they'd be brave enough to face the enemy and stare death in its face. Others wonder what the sound of a bullet flying overhead makes or how it feels to lay eyes upon the enemy for the first time. Do you wonder what war is like? This is a story of one man who was captivated by the Siren's call to war. The Sirens of war awaited him in the Pesh River Valley of Kunar Province, Afghanistan. There in Kunar, he finally learned the truth about war. If you are curious about this nightmare, or perhaps lived through it yourself, you are welcome to share in this journey. You will walk amongst the training grounds and experience war. These are one man's reflections of combat, taken from his war journal and originally written within hours of firefights, while his ears were still ringing from the cacophony of battle that all warriors intimately know. You are invited to this Afghanistan, a place where savage beauty and death coexist in every moment and with every breath.

1997 remembered by Paul Hirons (5 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

1997 was a year worth remembering. Among its many gifts to us were Tony Blair, the death of Princess Diana and the Young British Artists, including a young Damien Hirst. In this comedy memoir, we're introduced to Martin, a troubled, downtrodden man, who launches himself into 1997 like there's no 1998. When he turns up at the Glastonbury Festival in June, he's hopelessly unprepared for the muddiest festival ever and what it's about to throw at him. Set against a backdrop of iconic music and the dying days of Britpop, we're whisked through the year via extracts from Martin's scabrously funny journal. His running commentary is cynical, jaundiced, scathing, mocking, brazen, sweary, ribald, unfeeling, recalcitrant and opinionated - and that's on a good day! As the year unfolds, he lurches from one disastrous situation to the next, ruining relationships and antagonising the people around him. As his demeanour darkens and his behaviour deteriorates, the people around him try to see the funny side. Are they laughing with him? Or at him? When he emerges from the wreckage of Glastonbury, only one question remains - who's going to save him from himself?

Stary by Michael Sichok (1 Review)    Price verified 5 hours ago

Nadya Illyushin spends her teenage days at Institution, like most young residents of Stary Sovok. Stary is a bleak colony of Russkaya Amerika, established several hundred years ago, after the Great Intercontinental War of 1983. Nadya's nights are spent caring for her widowed, State-employed father and enjoying the company of her sparkling younger sister, Saski. She has never known anything outside of the lackluster world of State-regulated life: an existence of overly restrictive regulation, meager survival, and dependency upon a bureaucracy, which is ever so callously referred to as "Betterment." That is, however, until she stumbles upon a mysterious place in the forest - that changes everything, about her past, present and future. Nadya uncovers a secret place of escape - an alternate, parallel reality, where truths are revealed and destinies changed in unpredictable ways. She soon learns that the price of change does not come easily, but once the constraints of rote Stary life have been stripped away, Nadya takes the first steps into realizing her own pivotal role in shaping the future, all while navigating the all-too-human process of self-discovery into adulthood.

The Sapphire Sea: A Matt Ransom Mystery by Bobby Underwood (1 Review)    Price verified 5 hours ago

With its sexy mix of thrilling action and tangible sensuality, and a willingness to tackle subjects such as abuse and incest, suicide and faith within an entertaining sci-fi/mystery series often focused on global conspiracies in a world devoid of real love, The Sapphire Sea might just be the finest and most entertaining entry yet in the Matt Ransom canon. Big and sprawling -- there are over thirty pivotal and recurring characters -- yet almost uncomfortably intimate at times, the world of Matt Ransom is both intoxicating and addictive. By the seventh entry the world of Matt Ransom had moved from a dystopian Earth to one nearly fully recovered. In the previous entry, A Matt Ransom Christmas, readers were treated to intrigue as well as an ode to that most cherished of holidays. A startling story-line began to emerge that promised to rock this world to its foundations. That promise is fulfilled in The Sapphire Sea, a morally and sensually complex tearing down of everything readers thought they understood about this world. The Sapphire Sea remains true to all the intricate story-lines which preceded it, not to mention those all-important relationships, yet takes this most unique series in new and fresh directions. A Matt Ransom entry with one poignant moment after another, more achingly sensual encounters than can be counted, and a thrilling revenge and conspiracy story which moves like lightning despite being interwoven with the moral quandary Matt finds himself facing. The Sapphire Sea is the most ambitious Matt Ransom entry to date, which is saying a great deal. Stunning and heartbreaking, this one is so shocking, readers will find themselves asking: "Did that just happen?" A lot does happens here that could not have been anticipated by readers, including some deeply moving departures of beloved characters. A tearful yet uplifting ending make this one of the most memorable entries in the entire Matt Ransom canon.
