Event: A Dystopian Apocalyptic Horror Novel by Charles Welch (260 Reviews)    Price verified 12 minutes ago

For Mike and Hattie Hayes, their cabin on a pristine Colorado lake has always been a refuge, a weekend escape from the hustle and bustle of Denver. Both are particularly excited their daughter and her husband have joined them for a weekend away. Their time with her is rare and precious. Long walks, fishing, and lunch in the nearby historic town of Rustic are all a part of the allure. The star-filled night sky viewed from their small boat is the clearest they have ever seen. The heavenly views offer a glimpse of other worlds, of faraway places not seen from the city. Their private mountain retreat is their slice of paradise. It is perfect, until... Until the night a blinding light sweeps over them, the lake, and the surrounding forests. Until their daughter subsequently vanishes. Until their cabin is trashed, and a mysterious note is left behind. Until an unknown beast stalks them through the woods that surround their cabin. Until they discover the terrible truth behind the light that drastically changes their world. Until they understand the blazing light wasn't a shooting star or a falling satellite, it was the EVENT.

MAN VS CRAZY: a memoir of mental illness, maturity and mortality (Revised Edition) by Matthew James Elwell (5 Reviews)    Price verified 7 minutes ago

"It'd only been a little over 18 months since I'd dared to leave the comfort of my childhood bedroom where the walls were still plastered with movie posters and action figures were lined up on the window ledge. And now, I had a front-row seat to psychosis, drug-addiction, sexual abuse, post-traumatic stress and self-harm. And that was only my personal life... " 18-year-old wannabe writer Matthew finds himself washed-up on the English Riviera, forced to take up work as a carer in a low-rent Nursing Home just to keep a roof over his head. He soon crosses paths with childhood friend Roxy; a streetwise aspiring musician suffering from schizophrenia, who opens up a world of chaos and colourful characters, and convinces Matthew to take a job on a secure Psychiatric Unit. There, he quickly realises that he's traded "changing nappies and soaping up old people's saggy bits" for a daily onslaught of abuse, restraints and genuine insanity. But when he falls into a relationship with ex-patient Laura, a single-mum with a troubled past, things really do start to get crazy. Always bitingly honest, sometimes darkly funny and occasionally tragic, "Man vs Crazy" is a coming of age memoir about the true price of the often traumatic journey into adulthood.

We have figured out nothing except the way to live: The way of captives rather than orphans, The captivity of being rather than the freedom of nothingness. The way of control without freedom rather than freedom with the risk of disorder, The structures of society rather than the void of individuality.

Illusion is the cornerstone of lies, Lies are the cornerstone of dreams, Dreams are the cornerstone of joy, The dreams behind the lies we live by. This is the poetry of Hippolyte Flandrin.

Suga Sucka by P.J. Douglas (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

"Suga Sucka" A drug addicted psychopath. An orphaned sharecropper. A driven but devious war veteran. All are ready for biblical levels of divine intervention but only one is chosen to receive supernatural abilities from the archangel, Michael. The other two will receive a fate from the chosen one. Will it manifest as an angel of death or an angel of mercy? Find out in this spellbinding, multi-narrative, and half-century-spanning story. The great American novel is back in style and its name is: "Suga Sucka." ***CAUTION*** From the author: I hope you read this tale with an open mind and a forgiving heart. "Suga Sucka" touches on a lot of different themes (child neglect and abuse, racism, drug abuse, sexism, domestic abuse) which I caution readers who are sensitive to stories about abuse to proceed with caution. If you do decide to read this tale, my hope is that you find more love and forgiveness in your heart, and breathe. If you feel so inclined, please leave a review. Excerpt from "Suga Suga," by P.J. Douglas. He yelled and repeatedly moaned, "Kill me! Kill me! Kill me!" When you have exhausted every tear and shrieking cry that you can muster and are reduced to the low whimper of begging mercy, mortals will do anything to end some of the pain. Some pain manifested as physical trauma, while other pain presented as mental suffering. The hurt spreads throughout the ages, slowly eating one's humanity, one betrayal at a time. Like Satan himself took a knife called malice, sat on the front porch of hell and whittled away at your soul. Slowly, whistling and cutting away, Satan did not make something pretty but made the foul and wretched waste of woman and man. Gutted skeletons remained, bereft of any uncorrupted flesh or feelings of faith, light and hope. Sometimes, it's a quick job. It's clean and swift. One point of a bony finger and one slice of a scythe. Sometimes, the reaper shows up with a larger, more maintained Afro. No Grim Reaper, it's a white ...

While these things sound good from the outside, the world is becoming well aware of what they're doing to our insides.

Not to mention, it's also pumped with add-ins that are causing a long list of scary health problems to anyone who goes near them. When we eat these kinds of food, we are prone to develop heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and cancer along with many other fatal diseases. It's time we put our foot down to the problem. It all starts with food... And not just any food, but whole food. This includes succulent fruit, crisp veggies, savory whole grains, creamy full-fat milk, and tender grass-fed meat.

30-Day Whole Foods Slow Cooker Cookbook: Irresistible Recipes for a New and Healthier Life by Vanessa Olsen (224 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Over 80% of Americans have a slow cooker. If you're one of them, you need this cookbook, and you need to start cooking healthy whole-food recipes with it! The slow cooker as we know it has been around since the 1970's, and has yet to go out of fashion. It's convenient, easy to use, easy to clean, and as you'll soon learn, the perfect way to prepare whole-food meals for the whole family. What are whole foods? It is food as nature intended it - unprocessed and unrefined. So many foods in stores today have had their nutrients stripped out, and are built back up with artificial add-ins, sugar, and other junk to make them bigger and taste "better." If you eat this food, the results are poorer health, weight gain, and vulnerability to diseases as serious as diabetes and cancer. With whole foods, however, all the nutrients have been preserved, so you're getting the real deal. It's grass-fed beef, butter, wild-caught fish, organic vegetables and fruit, whole-grains, and so on. You'll be getting all the nutrients like fiber, calcium, and fatty acids that your body craves. The slow cooker is one of the best ways to prepare whole foods, because the nutrients are preserved better than other cooking methods, thanks to the low temperatures. The slow cooking process also creates rich flavors, which are made richer when you add in spices and herbs, so you'll never have to worry about healthy food being tasteless. This book walks you through everything you need to know about slow cooking, from good brands to how to troubleshoot common problems. You'll also find a chapter on how to stock a pantry full of whole foods and what you can expect to feel like after a month of eating well. The heart of the book is, naturally, the recipes. You'll find good eats like: • Ham and spinach frittatas • Sweet 'n sour chicken • Spicy sloppy joe's • Dijon and apple pork chops • Clam chowder • Butternut squash and bean chili • Homemade pizza sauce • Almond banana bread You'll ...

What a Nice Guy by Phil Torcivia (25 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Do you know any nice guys? Perhaps you're married to or good friends with one. Well, consider the possibility that this nice guy is so frustrated with his relationship failures that he needs to vent to keep from turning into a bad boy with anger issues. Then, try not to spit hot coffee as you read his sarcastic rants about why men and women don't seem to fit. Excerpt from What a Nice Guy -- Snippity Doo Dah My initial vasectomy consultation is scheduled for today and I can't get this song out of my head: Snippity doo dah, snippity aye, My, oh my, what a wonderful day! None of my sperm is going to stray. Snippity doo dah, snippity aye. Mister blue balls getting older, No child support It's so practical. Everything's satisfactual! (Everbody now... ) Snippity doo dah, snippity aye, Rubberless feelings coming my way! If you're staring at this page with mouth agape, you're either my mother or a fertile woman. Men, can I have an amen? You betcha. Look, ladies, I turn fifty this year. I need offspring like I need square dancing lessons. If I were to have one of my little guys actually find an egg, that would make me almost seventy by the time Junior went to prom. I'd be riding my daughter down the aisle on my scooter. I've done the math. It costs $800, which is equivalent to twenty morning-after pills, two abortions, or a case of Silver Oak wine. I'll sacrifice the latter for peace of mind. It is also one-hundredth the cost of a college education, one-tenth the cost of a used car (plus repairs), and half the cost of outgrown sneakers. I know, I know. "You still need to wear condoms. What about STDs?" That's true (and it sucks), but it makes the whole process less stressful when breakage or slippage occurs. Actually, I think I've only had a rubber break once in my life.

Cow Dung - A Down-To-Earth Solution To Global Warming And Climate Change by Dr. Sahadeva dasa (Soul Science University Press) (42 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Environmental crisis is for real and it's coming around faster than you think. It's not a brainchild of some conspiracy theorist but a tangible, perceivable fact, proven by the catastrophic events all over the world. But for most of us, caught up in the daily grind, it's hardly a subject worth pondering over. Common man in the streets of London, New York or Delhi has very little time to worry about some ozone layer up there or some damn iceberg in the North Pole. At best, it is a snow bear's problem. But the scientific fraternity and many political leaders don't think so. They are waking up to the horrors of global warming and climatic change. Hectic efforts are on to contain the damage but with very little success. This book provides a simple solution to this grave crisis which has the potential to wipe out life altogether. This is a calamity of unprecedented proportions coming our way and a point of no return for the industrial civilization. One of the arguments sceptics throw back at you is that the climate has always changed, and that is absolutely right. It's the rate of change that is the problem right now. It's changing so quickly that it exceeds our adaptive capacity. We are in a hole and it's time to stop digging.

When it comes to old English manor houses, there are always rumours about them being haunted, but no one believes it. Especially when they are eagerly buying one for a song. But perhaps that's a big mistake? The old manor seemed the perfect place for a bed and breakfast, and Alison put all of her money into it, determined to make a go of it. But from the start, something wasn't quite right. The locals didn't want to work for her, and the rumours of odd happenings were disturbing. Then, when items went missing, and were later found in odd places, Alison rationalised - ghosts didn't exist, did they? But there was no making sense of the rows of keys that kept appearing, always in the same place, and never where she'd left them. When a knife sliced her boyfriend chef's hand, and their friend was tipped off a ladder and injured, whilst alone in a room, Alison began to get really nervous. But she couldn't give up - could she? Then the kitchen was trashed, and the knives and pokers came flying at her, and she barely escaped alive. It was time to admit that there was a problem - a very deadly problem. Can Alison fix whatever ails Blakely Manor before someone gets killed? Or is it too late already?

La cólera de Aquiles: La «Ilíada» de Homero narrada para todos los públicos (Los héroes) (Spanish Edition) by Jeanie Lang (30 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Esta versión de la Ilíada de Homero está especialmente pensada para jóvenes lectores: las aventuras del final de la guerra de Troya se narran cronológicamente y de forma sencilla y entretenida para casi todas las edades. Tras nueve años de asedio y no mucha actividad guerrera, los griegos aún confían en tomar la ciudad de Troya. Todo se precipita con la famosa cólera de Aquiles: el gran rey Agamenón deshonra al mejor de los griegos, que entonces se niega a luchar contra el enemigo. Sin su lanza, el ejército griego no es rival para los soldados de Héctor, el gran comandante troyano. Comienzan los duelos de los héroes de ambos bandos y las hazañas de héroes como Áyax, Diomedes y Odiseo. Sin embargo, los griegos solo podrán conquistar Troya cuando Aquiles deponga su cólera y regrese al campo de batalla. Basado en el relato de Jeanie Lang, este libro cuenta lo más importante de la Ilíada de Homero, eliminando las partes y pasajes más pesados y las repeticiones típicas de la poesía épica. Al contrario que la mayoría de la literatura juvenil sobre mitos griegos (que suelen limitarse a compilar resúmenes de muchos personajes o mitos), este libro presenta un relato cohesionado de extensión adecuada para jóvenes (¡y adultos!), todo ello narrado vivamente sin necesidad de recurrir a imágenes.
