Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nine Lives Of Cats is a fantasy story aimed at young and grown up adults too. The book is of the humour cum thriller genre. The book evolves around the theme that cats have nine lives and the protagonist of the story is Jimbo a young cat whose mistress is Meera. She prays to God to do something for Jimbo so that he can survive in his own and her prayers are answered because an angel as messenger of God comes to them with a device called a Cat Life Device CLD for short. The device can be used by Jimbo only and with it lives can be extracted from cats and stored in the CLD, similarly lives stored within the CLD can be transferred back to cats. Transfers and extractions of lives can be done only if the concerned cat gives his consent to the procedure, in this regard the device can detect consents which though explicitly given but the concerned cat did not mean it from its heart the CLD will abort the process. This protects cats who have been intimidated to give their consent and this feature leads to numerous amusing incidents. Initially all cats think that the CLD is a hoax a scam to make money but slowly he gets the confidence of people and there are humorous interchanges with a cat who is a gossip columnist and also with a cat who is a punk. Then there is the question of legislating permission to carry on the CLD business and this process wends and weaves its way through the senate with numerous amusing incidents. While waiting for the trading license there is an urgent need for a CLD intervention on a precariously ill young cat; as it is illegal to use the device in Catland they decide to subvert the law by using it in Dogland where Catland laws do not apply and because of this numerous thrilling incidents happen. While Jimbo is in Dogland he gets more clients for the CLD. Finally the trade license comes through and Jimbo can commence his CLD banking business in Catland. While commencing business Jimbo encounters several problems such as collecting on loans made and there is also a run against the bank; then there are marriages the CLD way where the husband and wife exchange their lives, here they are warned that one of them may be left hanging at the altar if the love of any one of them is not genuine. Then there is the question of using the CLD on lions and tigers all belonging to the cat family. Finally the story ends when the CLD gets lost and how it is recovered using the services of ace cat detective Merlock Jomes!

Book excerpt: When Dominic agrees to join his boyfriend Alec and his kids for a weekend away at the annual Eggstravaganza in Mount Angus, Wisconsin, he’s expecting a boring, if kitschy, experience. He isn’t expecting to discover Alec is cheating on him, and he certainly isn’t expecting an exploding cow to drop him in the middle of a deadly mystery. Suddenly single and surrounded by a town’s worth of suspects, Dom finds himself oddly drawn to playing the sleuth, especially if it will get him closer to Kiko, the owner of the niche shop Yolks on You. Together the two men navigate a web of intrigue and lies, and the sniping of a jealous Alec, in a town filled with murder and Easter-themed mayhem. Will they manage to make it through the Eggstravaganza alive, or will the murderer leave them much more than just Shell Shocked ?

What is it that angers Chesterton and fills him with grim forebodings for the future of his island? Many things and, especially, many persons. But chiefly the capitalists, the upper middle class, the usurers, or however they be termed, and the fear of the servile state, the state in which art and literature and science and efficiency and morality and everything else that has value in the eyes of mortal man become the humble servants of the money-changers, in short, the "utopia of usurers." --The Dial, 1918.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a chaos-filled summer, Kiko and Dom are ready to ease into a more laidback autumn and really put in some quality time together. Allowing Dom's ex roommate to crash with them, however, turns out to be a mistake when the guy won't leave. Dom struggles to cope as Travis dredges up things from his past he'd rather not remember and slowly casts doubts on his relationship with Kiko. Just when the tension seems to be too much, a murder after a Halloween party reignites the spark between Kiko and Dom. But when the body count begins to rise, it becomes clear that this is no ordinary killer. With few leads and no end to places the murderer could strike, this could either be a Halloween for Kiko and Dom to remember, or their very last.

He wrote on philosophy, ontology, poetry, plays, journalism, public lectures and debates, literary and art criticism, biography, Christian apologetics, and fiction, including fantasy and detective fiction. Chesterton is often referred to as the "prince of paradox". Whenever possible, Chesterton made his points with popular sayings, proverbs, and allegories—first carefully turning them inside out. Chesterton is well known for his reasoned apologetics and even some of those who disagree with him have recognized the universal appeal of such works as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. Chesterton, as a political thinker, cast aspersions on both progressivism and conservatism, saying, "The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of the Conservatives is to prevent the mistakes from being corrected." Chesterton routinely referred to himself as an "orthodox" Christian, and came to identify such a position more and more with Catholicism, eventually converting to Roman Catholicism from High Church Anglicanism. George Bernard Shaw, Chesterton's "friendly enemy" said of him, "He was a man of colossal genius".
