Saturnastra Woden by Teresita Blanco (1 Review)    Price verified one minute ago

PrefaceWoden is the 11th book in the Saturnastra Series. Can you believe I already completed 11 novels? I still have three other books remaining in the series. Still, I feel quite happy that I am already in the final hurdle of this project. When I get an idea in my head, I follow through it. Most people lack the follow-through to become writers. They get bored or out of ideas by page 11. I am always full of cookie ideas. When the thoughts do not come to me, I dream them up. I have always had a fertile imagination. This is needed to write what I consider a fantasy book. When I started this, I chose a theme and then went with it. Though, in the long scheme of things, all the books of these series do not fall under a specific genre. The only thing they have in common are the familial ties, and the world that the characters inhabit. Woden already made a couple of cameos in other books of mines. This will be her stand alone story. It will take place over the course of a couple of days. Sometimes the most important events in people's life take place in a short amount of time. I think this book might actually be what people consider fantasy. The main girl is a magic type of person, and I do feature a decent amount of spells here and there. Then again, how this book ends up getting categorized is all up to the store that is selling my books. I have a particular way of looking at the world, and this viewpoint is reflected somewhat in this book. If you are already up to book 11th in this series, you already know to expect the unexpected. IntroductionI originally said in my first book that you did not need to read the entire series in order. This remains true for this book as well. Woden is its own stand alone novel. What it has in common with the other books is the setting. It takes place in the world that her family calls Saturnastra. The local lifeforms call it something else, as it is to be expected. The book focuses on the first couple of days of Woden away from her ...

An Expert Look at Love, Intimacy and Personal Growth by Robert M. Gordon (5 Reviews)    Price verified 10 minutes ago

After thirty years of theoretical formulations, I pull them all together in my comprehensive model of love relations by integrating evolutionary psychology, psychoanalysis, cognitive and social psychology. This theoretical model lets us see why relationships can be so irrational. Why do so many people have problems with love and intimacy? Why do some parents scapegoat their children? What is Parental Alienation Syndrome? What is the MMPI? Can we predict dangerousness? Why do we have ground rules in therapeutic relationships? Why must we grieve loss? Are the years in psychoanalytic psychotherapy worth it? How does one achieve personal growth? How do psychologists detect lying and defenses? Which theory of psychotherapy is best? Is self-esteem important or is it a pop-psych myth? Is it the divorce that hurts children or what came before the divorce? What is a psychotherapy session like? "This collection of papers spans 30 years of Dr. Robert Gordon's pioneering work in love, intimacy, and personal growth. Set against the backdrop of a psychoanalytic and social psychology perspective, Gordon draws upon his vast experience as a scientist and practitioner to provide the reader with unique insight into the dynamics of intimate relations. This book is a gem that is filled with clinical perspicacity. It has all the makings of a classic, and it is a must-read for anyone interested in broadening their perspective on what it takes to foster healthier intimacies." Frank M.

Cropsy by David Lee Veroux (64 Reviews)    Price verified 46 minutes ago

During Billy Powell's summer camp experiences he discovers a world of unimagined adventures, friendships, romance, and a horrifying secret. In this dual novel, as a past war between campers and a poor farmer escalates to tragic proportions, Billy battles his own demons in the form of raging hormones, cruel peers and counselors, and a terrifying camp legend that alters the course of his life. Excerpts: "The lead abductor jabbed the machete at each camper in an intimidating head count, then led us into the abyss, slashing at real and imagined forest undergrowth like a demonic safari guide. Treetops blocked the moonlight so effectively upon entering the jungle that we had to hold the shoulder of the person in front of us to keep from straying out of line. Descending the hill, essentially blind, the terrain I had once traversed in a panic was now foreign territory under my feet. The procession halted at some point, I estimated, close to the spring. We then continued, veering into the trees, I sensed, where I had once glimpsed a genuine phantom hovering in the shadows. Of all the places to explore at Aerie, this would have been my very last choice. Still, I had no option but to follow. The concept of breaking free and trying to find my way back to camp alone never entered my mind. We soon stumbled into a clearing, made visible by moonlight pouring in through a gap in the forest canopy. My eyes slowly adjusted, only to behold a dreadful sight. It could only be the ruins of Aerie's original pool. The large man-made oval contrasted appallingly with the dark earth surrounding its unearthly outline. Moonlight bounced off invisible water onto an ancient stone wall directly across from us, the reflections dancing a tragically slow waltz in time with the rhythm of serenading crickets. Dark stains and splotches of organic matter soiled the stone. It was as if we had traveled backward in time only to witness the decay of the future. In a state of pure awe, it ...

Silent Hill: The Terror Engine (Landmark Video Games) by Bernard Perron (University of Michigan Press) (130 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

Silent Hill: The Terror Engine, the second of the two inaugural studies in the Landmark Video Games series from series editors Mark J. P. Wolf and Bernard Perron, is both a close analysis of the first three Silent Hill games and a general look at the whole series. Silent Hill, with its first title released in 1999, is one of the most influential of the horror video game series. Perron situates the games within the survival horror genre, both by looking at the history of the genre and by comparing Silent Hill with such important forerunners as Alone in the Dark and Resident Evil. Taking a transmedia approach and underlining the designer's cinematic and literary influences, he uses the narrative structure; the techniques of imagery, sound, and music employed; the game mechanics; and the fiction, artifact, and gameplay emotions elicited by the games to explore the specific fears survival horror games are designed to provoke and how the experience as a whole has made the Silent Hill series one of the major landmarks of video game history.

Jolie Gentil The Mysteries Continue: Books 10 and 11 and a Fun Novella (Jolie Gentil Cozy Mystery Series) by Elaine L Orr (20 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

The Mysteries Continue Life goes on in Ocean Alley, but change is underfoot. Unexpected Resolution opens with a surprise guest at Jolie and Scoobie's wedding, and an unidentified body in the Ocean Alley Hospital emergency room. Jolie has to help Scoobie dig through family skeletons -- and solve a murder.. The Twain Does Meet is a novella that relays the story of Jolie and Scoobie becoming parents. While there is lots to discover, it's not a traditional cozy mystery. It didn't seem right to combine such a joyous even with a corpse. In fact, it's called it a Jolie and Scoobie novella. The series moves ahead three years with Underground in Ocean Alley. As a mom of toddlers, Jolie Gentil has sworn off butting into other people's business. To those who know her, it sounds as far-fetched as finding used bubble gum on Mars. Nothing could drag Jolie into solving crimes. And then a request for help comes from the most unlikely source... Publisher's Weekly Review: Orr's family-focused 10th Jolie Gentil cozy mystery finds sometimes sleuth Jolie and her fiance Scoobie preparing for their intimate New Year's Eve wedding in Ocean Alley, NJ. Then Scoobie's long-absent father shows up in the local hospital... Orr successfully delivers a quiet story about unexpected life events and the honest love that binds no matter what.

How to Receive the Promises of God by Gerald Obeng (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

In the midst of the storms and difficulties of this life, the child of God is still expected to stand out as an exception. When the spirit behind the word of God is discovered to the fullest extent so much that the child of God is filled with the knowledge of the will of God in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; there is an explosion of the unfeigned glory of God that cuts across all facets of life. As a result, this explosion will generate a magnetic field which will attract others to us. Eventually, they would experience the inexplicable love of God that is at work within us. This publication explains why the 21st century Christian must not succumb to the wiles of that old serpent no matter what. Some believers have been held in bondages of sickness, fear, and poverty. Thus, rendered them in a state of confusion or uncertainties about the future. Why should darkness have rule over light? Why should princes walk and servants be on horses? Why should the roar of the enemy scare believers? Believers everywhere must walk under the open heavens where they experience the fullness of God's promises in every aspect of life's journey. Having knowledge of these promises is key to unlocking the doors of heaven over your life, ministry, family, business or whatever you are engaged in. This book reveals key fundamentals in receiving the promises of God and the antecedents to avoid the contrary as a child of God. The expositions are Biblical and trustworthy in uplifting the spirit of readers as truths about the differences between the reality on the ground and solution from above are explained for proper application of the word of God in different situations of life. I see this publication as a divine opportunity to reinforce God's perfect will for his children. Be blessed as you discover how you can also receive all the promises God has for your life, ministry, family, business and anything you're involved in the pages of this book.

One Life Well and Truly Promised by Richard D. Parker Price verified 4 hours ago

It began six thousand years ago, before the birth of the Akkadian Empire, with a pair of young lovers. Destinies entwined around a first, pure love, a tragic ending, and a promise. "I want you to promise me a life," she whispered so softly he barely heard her. She slowly sat up and searched the gloom of the hut warily. "Akhila!" Akintunde hissed quietly, glancing about fearfully. It was strictly taboo to speak of future lives and a well-known harbinger of ill luck. If an attentive god should hear, whether good or evil, they might strike you dead so that you could quickly begin the new life you so coveted. Akhila flinched but quickly regained her resolve. "I'm afraid Tunde," she admitted and then leaned closer and lowered her voice. "The gods could all be gone... or dead. One life... just one full life... promise." Akintunde paused, straining his senses, wildly searching for the presence of a god. Of course, he failed in the endeavor, but his eyes fearfully scanned the interior of the hut nevertheless. "I promise," he mouthed, just above a whisper and a wave of dread swept through him. Though there was no outward sign of change, he knew his words were the beginning. He could feel it. The destiny of his soul had been forever changed. Spanning the breadth of recorded history, this timeless historical saga follows two unfortunate lovers across the globe in their never-ending quest to fulfill a promise of love and life. Through the Polynesian South Pacific, to the tribal lands of the Iceni in early Britain, fortune contrives again and again to keep the entangled souls apart. From war-torn Japan in the twelfth century, to the mountainous tea regions of Darjeeling, Bengal, the two lovers struggle to reunite. Until finally, in the fertile fields of the American Midwest, the story culminates in ways even destiny could not have imagined.

Beautiful preteen twins Rachel and Janie Lemon are desperate to avoid the fate of their older sister Mary, who at thirteen was forced to marry the polygamous Prophet of Sheba Hill.

Printing and Prophecy: Prognostication and Media Change 1450-1550 (Cultures Of Knowledge In The Early Modern World) by Jonathan Green (University of Michigan Press) (5 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Printing and Prophecy: Prognostication and Media Change 1450-1550 examines prognostic traditions and late medieval prophetic texts in the first century of printing and their effect on the new medium of print. The many prophetic and prognostic works that followed Europe's earliest known printed book---not the Gutenberg Bible, but the Sibyl's Prophecy, printed by Gutenberg two years earlier and known today only from a single page---over the next century were perennial best sellers for many printers, and they provide the modern observer with a unique way to study the history and inner workings of the print medium. The very popularity of these works, often published as affordable booklets, raised fears of social unrest. Printers therefore had to meet customer demand while at the same time channeling readers' reactions along approved paths. Authors were packaged---and packaged themselves---in word and image to respond to the tension, while leading figures of early modern culture such as Paracelsus, Martin Luther, and Sebastian Brant used printed prophecies for their own purposes in a rapidly changing society. Based on a wide reading of many sources, Printing and Prophecy contributes to the study of early modern literature, including how print changed the relationship among authors, readers, and texts. The prophetic and astrological texts the book examines document changes in early modern society that are particularly relevant to German studies and are key texts for understanding the development of science, religion, and popular culture in the early modern period. By combining the methods of cultural studies and book history, this volume brings a new perspective to the study of Gutenberg and later printers.

It discusses how a person can build something beautiful from scratch and also how to maximize the resources at hand in order to get the best results.

They talk about one that gives them the answers to questions that they have. When dealing with a book that aims to better your existence, the common idea that comes to mind is something like the usual and common 10 ways to do this, 100 ways to do that, or 101 ways to get things done, but because this book is not your regular self-help or life hack book, it undoubtedly has to go beyond the regular things that are all over the place. So, it is pretty simple. The author didn't write the classics: the 100 things no one has ever told you, the 5 habits that will change your life, 101 ideas to improve your life, or something like that, which are the whole number in marketing and communication as a means of persuasion and attention grabbing, and this should suggest to you that this book contains information that you cannot find randomly at any location.

She's moved home, but can she move on? One night with professional bull rider Trent Campbell had been everything that Kelly Sullivan had fantasized about. Unfortunately, it cost her everything. When she became pregnant, her father threw her out because she wouldn't tell him the baby's father was his rodeo hero -- the hero who ghosted her when she tried so many times to tell him about their daughter. Trent Campbell never forgot the best night of his life. It was what kept him going when a 2,000-lbs bull ended his career and almost his life. Throughout his long recovery, thinking of Kelly and wishing he still had his stolen phone so he could contact her, were what got him through the tough days -- that, and his bull-headed stubbornness that he'd not only walk again, he'd ride. When Kelly returns to Last Stand, Texas, in a last-ditch effort to keep her family from selling the Three Sisters Ranch, she has a plan to make her father proud of her again by turning part of the land into a portrait studio location. Her father, however, has already temporary leased Trent some land for a rodeo school. Kelly and Trent still have the same explosive chemistry, but now the stakes are higher. If she lets Trent into her life, it won't only be her heart he breaks this time if he leaves, it will be their daughter's.
