Download or read book The Big Day and other stories written by Dave Lauby and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-06-25 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do invisible rats, aspiring rapists, axe-wielding gorillas, coffee shop ninjas and clown-faced kidnappers all have in common? They’re just some of the shady miscreants and dubious heroes who populate the pages of the twisted tales making up Dave Lauby’s rollicking short fiction collection The Big Day (and other stories). From the wimpy 13-year-old boy spurred on to criminal acts by his best friend from a Bizarro universe to the arctic survivalist whose sense of day and night (and pain and pleasure) become snow blinded and indistinguishable, the characters of Lauby’s nine exuberant narratives pinball-collide themselves against tragedy and comedy and all the emotional bumpers in-between. Weaving in and out through a maze of twisting turns, unexpected jolts and surprise endings, TBD(aos) provides the reader with a well-balanced and intellectually nutritious nine-course story meal while tasting every bit like dessert with every bite. It’s a guarantee that you’ll want to come back for seconds.

Download or read book Captain Niblick written by John Michael Wade and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient oaks of one of England's major forests had just about seen it all - wars, droughts, fires, floods, you name it, they've survived it. But how would they cope with a maverick golf club skipper, one Captain Mashie Niblick, intent on demolishing old dogmas and bringing in his New Model Army to put matters to rights? As it happened, the New Model Army turned out to be an Old Model Army, the bow and arrow brigade of one Robin the Hoodie who was keen on extending his domain from Sherwood to the back of beyond. In an age of mobile telephony and electronic tablets, the Outlaw was proven to be out of his depth. Niblick was not. As last man standing in the captaincy stakes Mashie Niblick strode purposefully up to the plate when duty called. Eventually he fell off it. Yet he could count himself one of the heroes of the age because, surely in the 123-year history of the golf club, there was no captain as lousy at golf as was Niblick. Here is a true tale of a loser. It is a story like no other. Niblick survived and the forest survived by gobbling up the Captain's golf balls by the dozen. This is golfing life in the English countryside and on the links of the Costa del Sol. It tells what it is like to be a leader of men and a bleeder of golfing hearts. Mashie Niblick is unique. We shall not see his like again in the captaincy stakes, so sit up and join him on his incredible journey.

Download or read book Blue Country written by Mark Wentling and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unexpected twists and turns keep the reader guessing about what will happen next. Throughout this entertaining novel is weaved a one-way dialogue between a dying prisoner who tells repeatedly his sad story to a hungry jailhouse rat, which only lives to eat. The story moves from the death and destruction of one town to the amazing rebuilding of a new town by survivors who lived to tell the tale. The human foibles of many of the book's characters are displayed. Miracles make possible survival, love, and marriage, but evil lurks beneath the surface, and unforeseeable events determine the future of a people and their country. Heroes live and die by the hand of hidden forces beyond their control. The eyes of an innocent young man, offspring of a saintly mother who died giving birth to him, are opened to social injustices caused by an elitist power structure. The ambitions and interests of a few are pursued to the detriment of the majority. Fortunes are decided by a violent border dispute and a heated soccer match that leads to a brief war between two countries. The story begins with hopes created by salvation found in the protection of an old church and ends uncannily in the same church, where a handful of assorted protagonists find they have been given a new lease on life. Yet the question is left open as to which forces will ultimately rule: good or evil? No mention is made of the sacrifices necessary for good to triumph over evil. Will people be willing to work long and hard enough for the good of their country, or will they be guided by their own selfish interests and incapacity to understand what is really at stake? These questions and others are left to the reader to answer. Other questions remain unanswered. Will unscrupulous leaders succeed in manipulating people to support them? Is divine intervention for the good of the people possible? How many chances will good people be given to make the wrongs of society right? Will unanticipated events continue to govern the course taken by a people and their country? Which way will the wheel of time turn, and who will benefit? Nobody masters completely with certainty their destiny. Fate will be what it will be. Several readings of this book could yield some answers to these questions, but good answers to these eternal questions will continue to be beyond the grasp of mere mortals. In the end, it is up to each individual to decide whether or not their life made a positive difference that endures for generations. Or maybe this book is only an engrossing superficial story that has nothing to do with any of these heavy questions or any deeper meaning. Each reader will have to decide for themselves what this book is about.
