Cult Child by Vennie Kocsis (714 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

This book is intended for those who want to understand the dissection, confusion and mindset of child growing up in a fundamental, evangelical cult. Embark on a gripping memoir that delves into the profound depths of Sila Caprin's tumultuous journey. From the tender age of three, Sila finds herself ensnared within the clutches of an evangelical, end-times cult known as Sam Fife's Move of God. Within the towering walls of isolation, she is thrust into a realm detached from the outside world, confined to the two compounds that shape her existence. Yet, amidst the suffocating grasp of this foreign and desolate environment, Sila's spirit burns bright, an unwavering flame that defies the darkness that seeks to consume her. Cult Child invites you into Sila's world, as she narrates her harrowing experiences through the prism of her own eyes and thoughts, offering an intimate and profound perspective of her arduous journey. As Sila traverses the treacherous path towards adolescence, her determination ignites like a flickering ember, and she dares to dream of escape. Within the pages of this memoir, witness the intricacies of her plotting, the blossoming of her spirit, and the threads of hope interwoven amidst the tapestry of her existence. Yet, just as her plans take shape, a sudden incident shatters the fragile equilibrium, forever altering the course of her life. With haunting prose and raw emotion, Cult Child unveils the heart-wrenching tale of resilience and transformation, painting a vivid portrait of a life irrevocably changed by the shadows of a clandestine world. "Poignant, gripping and ultimately triumphant, Vennie Kocsis' "Cult Child" will leave you inspired by the pure strength of will that children use to cope themselves through trauma. Her fortress is no bigger than the space between her ears; but through quiet internal resistance, Sila halts her opponents and outlasts their ten year siege." Dolon Hickmon, author of "13:24".

The Forever Pact (The Bachelors of Paradise Valley Book 1) by Jaimie Casey (486 Reviews)    Price verified 5 minutes ago

What's that saying? What can go wrong will go wrong? I think that should be the saying for my life. I'm Pippa Chase. I was about to become Pippa Snothead, but then my fiancé cheated on me, and I called off the wedding... I'm heartbroken, but at least I avoided a horrible last name. And now, I'm on my way to Paradise Valley, Montana, to lick my wounds and figure out what's next in my life. I'm going to live with my childhood best friend, TJ Wyatt, on a ranch he bought. Ever since we were young, we had a pact that if one of us needed the other, we would be there for each other. Granted, TJ and I haven't seen each other since we were thirteen, and we stopped our barrage of letters and emails when we were eighteen. However, we still send Christmas cards yearly, and in one of them, he did say, "If you're ever in this part of the country, drop in." I don't think he meant it as literally as I took it. So, that's how I ended up living on a remote ranch, in a log cabin with a man who didn't seem quite as happy to see me as I thought he would be. But maybe it didn't help that I showed up in my wedding dress, and everyone in town thought I was his new bride. Oops! This may not have been my best decision, but I'm hoping that Paradise Valley can help to mend my broken heart.

Finding Genius: Understanding Cancer: 30 Questions, 70 Geniuses, 200+ Amazing Insights by Richard Jacobs (11 Reviews)    Price verified 47 minutes ago

This book is for three kinds of audiences: 1) curious amateurs interested in science or overall wellness, 2) anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer or knows someone who has, and 3) medical, bioengineering, or other professionals who have a general knowledge of and curiosity about any or all aspects of cancer biology and treatment, but who are not experts in the field. This book is the result of 70+ interviews of genius-level medical and science professionals, primarily in cancer biology, research, and medicine. They have all been asked the same set of questions, and have answered to the best of their ability and knowledge. What you're about to read is the answers to these questions, not from all the individuals, but from the most interesting 4 to 9 who answered each question. At the start of my journey in science, I already had a B.S. in Chemical Engineering, but that was from 1998, certainly not 2016 when I started. Reading scientific papers was difficult at first - I understood about 10% of what I was reading. As I interviewed more scientists, researchers, clinicians and others, I started to pick up the vocabulary and thinking process needed to read scientific papers. After a year of reading, my comprehension increased, and now stands at around 70%, typically. In the areas of physics or other sciences in which I'm not conversant, I understand about 30%. In advanced math, since it's a language unto itself, especially at high levels, I am back to the 10% level. Apply yourself, and you'll be surprised by what you can learn in a year's time.

Roberta und der ägyptische Mumiendelphin (German Edition) by E. Dence (85 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Was haben Delphinkinder und Menschenkinder gemeinsam? Beide mögen es nicht, aus ihrer gewohnten Umgebung herausgerissen zu werden. Als Roberta mit ihren Eltern wegen eines Siedlungsbauprojekts umziehen muss, ist ihre Welt nicht mehr in Ordnung. Am meisten stört sie, dass sie ihren besten Freund zurücklassen muss. In der neuen Umgebung hat Roberta nur Erwachsene in ihrem Umfeld und diese haben leider ziemlich wenig Zeit für Roberta. Natürlich findet sie auch hier neue Freunde, aber sie trauert ihrem besten Freund dennoch nach. Zum Glück gibt es dort keine Schule und Roberta kommt vor Schulbeginn wieder zurück in die alte Siedlung. Doch alles hat sich verändert. Die Siedlung und sogar ihr altes Höhlenabteil scheinen geschrumpft zu sein und ihr bester Freund ist auch nicht so, wie sie es erwartet hat. Auch die Schule wird problematisch, denn Roberta hat sich von ihren Freunden im Bauprojekt hauptsächlich Eigenschaften zu eigen gemacht, die für einen Delphin ihres Alters vielleicht unpassend sind. Ihr bester Freund macht ihr durch seine Mentalität noch zusätzlich jede Menge Sorgen, aber sind ihre Sorgen auch gerechtfertigt? Während Roberta aus alter Gewohnheit hauptsächlich in der heimischen Höhle lernt und trainiert, glänzt ihr bester Freund schon seit Jahren in der Siedlung mit Abwesenheit. Man weiß nur, dass er zufriedener wirkt, seit Roberta wieder da ist. Als die Haie frecher werden und nicht nur den Strand, sondern auch die Delphinsiedlung bedrohen, beginnen sich auch gleichzeitig ein paar Geheimnisse zu lüften. Werden Roberta und Ignazius wieder zusammenfinden? Die Vorzeichen sind nicht sehr günstig, denn zu allem Überfluss beginnt bei den Jungdelphinen gerade auch noch die Pubertät. Dieses eBook enthält für Kinder, Jugendliche und jung Gebliebene auch einige Überraschungen. Ich wünsche viel Spaß beim Lesen.

(This book is a sweet, low-heat, closed-door romcom. If you're looking for a spicy read, you won't find it here!) I deceived him for four years. Ash and I were childhood pen pals. He thought I was a boy, and I never told him I wasn't. Since we lived in different states, he'd never find out. Right? Wrong. Well, he didn't figure it out when we were kids, but now we're sitting a few tables away from each other in a downtown Chicago restaurant, and I'm about to be exposed as a fraud. I know what you're thinking: Just keep your mouth shut, and he won't know who you are. Wrong, again. My lunch companion and co-worker, Wendy, knows him. Wait. Let me amend that. She's infatuated with him. Oh, yes. My newest friend has a crush on the boy I betrayed. What are the odds? Infinitely low. That's what they are. To top things off, Ash's brother just saved me from choking to death. It's been an eventful lunch, to say the least. And now Wendy is determined to stop by their table to thank him again and to flirt with Ash. He's going to hate me, right? Please tell me I'm wrong. More Than Pen Pals is a childhood-friends-to-lovers Throwback RomCom set in the late 1980s. It reads like a contemporary romance novel with all the tropes, closed-door chemistry, and banter, but the relationship evolves without the use of cell phones or the Internet. Dating was a whole different game in the 80s!

Persia in the Great Game: Sir Percy Sykes – explorer, consul, soldier, spy by Antony Wynn (Lume Books) (69 Reviews)    Price verified 7 minutes ago

Percy Sykes was sent by Army Intelligence in the 1890s, first as an explorer and spy, then to open consulates along Persia's eastern borders. His job was to deter Russian expansion towards India. In his time, Sir Percy Sykes was a legend of empire: unpaid, he rode through thousands of miles of the harshest desert, marsh and mountain, often with his indomitable sister. He did whatever he felt necessary to protect his country's interests: when consul at Meshed during a very turbulent time, he bugged the Russian consulate and, armed only with diplomacy, single-handedly faced down a Russian attempt to annex north-east Persia. But Sykes was not the typical servant of empire. He hunted gazelle with princes, read Persian poetry, sat at the feet of dervish masters and got to the heart of the country. Persia in the Great Game explores Sykes' 25 years in Persia with humour and domestic detail, to give an insight that is instructive today. Praise for Persia in the Great Game: 'A vivid reminder of the extraordinary lives and times of those who once played the Great Game. Percy Sykes was one of the ablest, if most controversial, of these. A valuable addition to Great Game literature' - Peter Hopkirk 'Very entertaining biography of an extraordinary character' - Goodreads Antony Wynn read Persian and Turkish at Balliol College, Oxford, and has spent many years working in and around Persia. As well writing books, he is a reviewer, columnist and lecturer.

The Far Shore by Edward Ellsberg (577 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

June 6, 1944, D-Day: Allied forces took the beaches at Normandy -- and the naval engineering genius of Edward Ellsberg would play a crucial part. Before World War II, Edward Ellsberg had already established himself as a true innovator and master naval engineer, revolutionizing the salvage and rescue of sunken vessels like no one before. Then, having served his country for over a decade, he retired to private life. But his work was not finished. Within hours of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the aging and physically ill Ellsberg was on a train to Washington, DC, to offer his services once again. And they would be needed for the greatest military invasion in human history. In The Far Shore, Rear Admiral Ellsberg describes in detail the meticulous preparation and efforts behind the Normandy Invasion -- efforts that would keep the flow of men and materials streaming onto the beaches and into the heart of Europe. From dealing with the extremes of engineering possibilities to wrestling with the knowledge that countless lives would depend on the success of his intricate planning, Ellsberg would work himself into exhaustion to do his part. His achievements would eventually earn him the Distinguished Service Medal and lead to his appointment as an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. Vividly described by a man who saw firsthand the horrors of war and the cost of victory, The Far Shore takes readers through the brutal surf, onto the bloody beaches, and into the mind of one of World War II's little-known heroes.

This classic study profiles serial killers, gentleman murderers, and every stripe of madman in between Benjamin Pitezel should never have trusted H. H. Holmes. In 1894, the two men conspired to fake Pitezel's death for the sake of a $10,000 insurance settlement. But Holmes decided murder would be simpler. He killed his partner, kidnapped three of his children, and tried to claim the insurance money as his own. The scheme unraveled and Holmes killed the children as well. When he was caught, the police had no idea they had captured one of the vilest murderers in American history. The Pitezel murders were only the tip of a very bloody iceberg. The chilling case of H. H. Holmes -- famously recounted in Erik Larson's award-winning bestseller, The Devil in the White City -- is but one of the true crime tales contained in this remarkable work. Author H. B. Irving understood the public's lurid fascination with murder, and in this seminal study he shows readers the many faces of evil.

Flight of the Forgotten: A True Story of Heroism and Betrayal by Mark Vance (161 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Flight of the Forgotten is the true story of one of the most closely-guarded American military secrets of all time. It is intriguing, controversial and thought-provoking. The story traverses 50 years, two generations and the realities of our physical world. The triggering event is the tragic loss of an American Eighth Air Force bomber crew in 1945 under mysterious circumstances while enroute home after the end of World War II. The loss represents a 50-year-old aviation mystery, officially "forgotten" by the United States Government. Details described and amplified within the story remain permanently "buried" inside a top-secret O.S.S. file to this day. This book is a public counter to official efforts by the United States Government to have the events permanently erased from the public record. The author's extensive research indicates that those events involve murder, conspiracy and sabotage by the O.S.S., the forerunner to the modern CIA.
