Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The beloved Fannie Flagg is at her irresistible and hilarious best in I Still Dream About You, a comic mystery romp through the streets of Birmingham, Alabama, past, present, and future. Meet Maggie Fortenberry, a still beautiful former Miss Alabama. To others, Maggie’s life seems practically perfect—she’s lovely, charming, and a successful agent at Red Mountain Realty. Still, Maggie can’t help but wonder how she wound up living a life so different from the one she dreamed of as a child. But just when things seem completely hopeless, and the secrets of Maggie’s past drive her to a radical plan to solve it all, Maggie discovers, quite by accident, that everybody, it seems, has at least one little secret. I Still Dream About You is a wonderful novel that is equal parts southern charm, murder mystery, and that perfect combination of comedy and old-fashioned wisdom that can be served up only by America’s own remarkable Fannie Flagg.

Book excerpt: The world is in a struggle amongst those who have faith. An organization known as the Agnostic Alliance, or the Double A, has tested the faithful enough to make ninety percent of the world's population Agnostic. Gwendolyn Anderson, a peaceful yet ambitious journalist and devout Christian, is the strongest voice of the remaining ten percent of the people holding onto their faith as she tries to uncover flaws and contradictions in the methods of rationalization that the Double A has implemented on all faith. The Double A has proposed one of the biggest projects yet that will expand the entire globe. Gwendolyn must figure out their real agenda. She visits the numerous buildings known as "Palaces of Scientific Theory" newly built around the world seeking the truth behind the mask of the Double A, even if it means going face to face with the ruthless and psychopathic leader of the Double A, Eliza Roark. The Alpha Jan describes the extreme view known as agnosticism along with the understanding of true belief through a dystopian tale of a world that chooses to abandon faith for instant gratification with temporary results.

Download or read book The Border written by Robert McCammon and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling author “pulls out all the stops for this exhilarating alien-invasion epic . . . One of his finest” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). It happened one day in April. Huge explosions in skies across the world heralded the coming of the Gorgon ships, sparking a worldwide panic. Indestructible, they blasted Earth’s greatest cities into rubble. Then, through portals opening in the air, came the skeletal Cyphers. And Earth became a battlefield in a war between two alien races bent on mutual destruction. In Colorado, just over a hundred survivors have found sanctuary in the ruins of an apartment complex—and it’s not just the Gorgons and Cyphers who threaten them. They are regularly besieged by the Gray Men, humans mutated by something in the atmosphere into monstrosities straight out of nightmares. With their ammunition and supplies dwindling, the remaining humans face a bleak future. Then one day, a teenage boy appears, seemingly human, seemingly the victim of catastrophic injuries. He can’t remember where he came from, but he senses a power within himself—one that causes an earthquake to repel a horde of Gray Men. A voice speaks to the boy in his sleep, telling him to find “the white mansion.” Now, the one thing the survivors need most of all is blossoming within them: hope. But only if they choose to trust in a boy who has no memory and only three words from a dream to guide him . . . “A prime example of a master storyteller/writer returning to the type of novel that made him a master and an excellent addition to the alien invasion flavor of the Apocalyptic Novel canon.” —SF Signal

Book excerpt: `A tense, creepy page-turner´ Ian Rankin, New Statesman `Malone is the master of twists, turns and the unexpected´ Herald Scotland _______ Annie surged forward, but she was too slow, too late. A hand came over and down, and she felt a sharp pain at the back of her neck. Then all became smoke, and silence. Hiding from the world in her little white cottage on the shores of a loch, Annie Jackson is fighting to come to terms with the world of the murmurs, a curse that has haunted female members of her family for centuries. While she is within the ancient, heavy stone of the old dwelling, the voices merely buzz, but the moment she steps outside the door they clamour to torment her all over again, bringing with them shocking visions of imminent deaths. Into this oasis comes her adoptive mother, Mandy McEvoy, begging for Annie's help. Mandy's nephew Damien has gone missing, after dropping off his four-year old son at his mother's home.

Download or read book Island of Dreams written by Katherine Stone and published by Katherine Stone. This book was released on 2022-03-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bestselling author Katherine Stone sweeps you from Venice and Denver and from Carmel to New Orleans in this shimmering sequel to A MIDNIGHT CLEAR. “I wonder what happens to a dream when you get too close.” “Maybe,” Pierce said softly, “it gets even better.” They came closer, then, to different dream. He began the journey, touching her gently. Her eyes glowed yes with wanting, yes with wishing, yes with wonder, and her lips opened to his, welcoming, wanting, wishing. Yes. Yes. Then no. No. “I can’t do this. It’s madness, Pierce.” “It’s gladness, Ana.” “No, Pierce. You don’t understand. I am going mad.” Two courageous, gifted, lovely women. Two fiercely honorable and passionate men. Two hauntingly beautiful love stories embroidered together in a glittering tapestry of the bravest journey of the heart . . . the soaring journey from the loss of hope to the splendor of love. For Boston-proper librarian Ana Finch, life has been quiet, certain, safe, until an incident at a wedding changes everything. The headaches begin then, as does the bone-chilling cold. She feels compelled to move to Denver, even though the Mile High city is a place she has never been. She knows that dreams of love are not for her, they must not and cannot be, and yet there he is, a man who touches the lonely and wishing places deep inside her as no man ever has . . . Denver architect Pierce Rourke believes in dreams—for others—and in love, for others, too. His masterpiece, the Island, is spectacular proof of his beliefs. It is there, on rock as white as snow and amid shimmering fountains spun from molten glass, that he has created a place just for weddings, for the celebration of the glorious gifts and promises of love. Pierce’s work is his passion. He’s not looking for anything more. But there she is, Ana. The dream he never knew to dream. And now the man who has built a place for dreams and the woman who has never dared to dream must try to find, together, a way to triumph over destiny. Praise for Island of Dreams and the Novels of Katherine Stone: “Katherine Stone’s characters live with the shadows over their lives and make the best of them, honorably, courageously and generously.
