Book excerpt: Coyote Gold By: John R. Thomas Luis and Sergio met while working at Flores Cantina, waiting tables, washing dishes, and running errands for tips. They grew up understanding the financial failures of their city. Jobs were few and the pay was low. When the Mexican Cartel offered them a job as Coyotes, they were ready for adventure and willing to do whatever was necessary to fill their pockets with money, or so they thought. Quickly becoming the best Coyotes in the Mexican cartel, they are the first choice of Arturo, head of the cartel in Reynosa, to take tourists, as he calls them and illegal drugs through the desert, across the Rio Grande, and into America. When they find themselves staring into the cold, unforgiving pistol of the bloodiest cartel enforcer in Mexico, who thinks they are stealing from Arturo, they know they will need a miracle to survive. But do miracles really happen? What they discover in the desert will change their lives forever.

Download or read book Coyote Tales written by Thomas King and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2017-10-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two tales, set in a time “when animals and human beings still talked to each other,” display Thomas King’s cheeky humor and master storytelling skills. Freshly illustrated and reissued as an early chapter book, these stories are perfect for newly independent readers. In Coyote Sings to the Moon, Old Woman and the animals sing to the moon each night. Coyote attempts to join them, but his voice is so terrible they beg him to stop. He is crushed and lashes out — who needs Moon anyway? Furious, Moon dives into a pond, plunging the world into darkness. But clever Old Woman comes up with a plan to send Moon back up into the sky and, thanks to Coyote, there she stays. In Coyote’s New Suit, mischievous Raven wreaks havoc when she suggests that Coyote’s toasty brown suit is not the finest in the forest, thus prompting him to steal suits belonging to all the other animals. Meanwhile, Raven tells the other animals to borrow clothes from the humans’ camp. When Coyote finds that his closet is too full, Raven slyly suggests he hold a yard sale, then sends the human beings (in their underwear) and the animals (in their ill-fitting human clothes) along for the fun. A hilarious illustration of the consequences of wanting more than we need.

Download or read book Coyote Doggirl written by Lisa Hanawalt and published by Drawn & Quarterly. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coyote is a dreamer and a drama queen, brazen and brave, faithful yet fiercely independent. She beats her own drum and sews her own crop tops. A gifted equestrian, she’s half dog, half coyote, and all power. With the help of her trusty steed, Red, there’s not much that’s too big for her to bite off, chew up, and spit out right into your face, if you deserve it. But when Coyote and Red find themselves on the run from a trio of vengeful bad dogs, get clobbered by arrows, and are tragically separated, our protagonist is left fighting for her life and longing for her displaced best friend. Taken in by a wolf clan, Coyote may be wounded, but it’s not long before she’s back on the open road to track down Red and tackle the dogs who wronged her. An homage to and a lampoon of Westerns like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Lisa Hanawalt’s Coyote Doggirl is a self-aware, playful subversion of tropes. As our fallible hero attempts to understand the culture of the wolves, we see a journey in understanding and misunderstanding, adopting and co-opting. Uncomfortable at times but nonetheless rewarding and empowering, the story of these flawed, anthropomorphized characters is nothing if not relentlessly hilarious and heartbreakingly human. Told in Hanawalt’s technicolor absurdist style, Coyote Doggirl is not just a send-up of the Western genre but a deeply personal story told by an enormously talented cartoonist.

Download or read book Saga Tales written by Charles E. Miller and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fact that Miller classifies his tales as “historical” requires an explanation. One of them, his accounts of the first murder recorded in Scripture, is historically accurate in its spirit and its conscription of evil. His second “historical” tale narrates the story of Noah and the construction of his ark, precedent to the global flood. That Noah, by faith alone, constructed his massive ark in the middle of a rainless desert marked him for “strange” and for the ridicule of his village. The balance of the tales deal with the histories of their central characters, and for that reason, the author includes them in his parameter of “historical”. This collection marks his fourth volume of short stories.

Download or read book Rescue From Planet Pleasure written by Mario Acevedo and published by WordFire +ORM. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The national bestselling author of Werewolf Smackdown brings back “irresistibly entertaining” vampire detective Felix Gomez (Rick Riordan, #1 New York Times–bestselling author). Planet Pleasure. The one place in the galaxy you seriously want to avoid, but it’s the next stop for Felix Gomez, detective-vampire and undead enforcer. His mission: rescue the bodacious vampiress, the hyper-sexual Carmen Arellano, from the clutches of ruthless warrior aliens. Her captors have doomed themselves by honing their military prowess at the expense of their libido, and Carmen is their last chance in regaining their mojo before they die out. Felix can’t waste any time because Phaedra, the ruthless bloodsucking ingénue—now with extra-superpowers—is making good on her threat to destroy the Araneum and take over the undead underworld. Luckily, Felix is not alone in his quest to save Carmen and stop Phaedra. That redheaded whirlwind with a gun, Jolie, has got his back. Also lending a hand is everyone’s favorite down-and-out trickster sage, Coyote, and he’s brought along his mom . . . la Malinche . . . aka La Llorona! Here it comes, ground zero of a mega-ton story bristling with action, interstellar double-crosses, skin-walkers, Hopi magic, and trigger-happy goons. Exactly what you’d expect from Felix Gomez. Praise for the Felix Gomez series “Acevedo is a very disturbed man—and I mean that in the absolute finest sense of the term.” —Tim Dorsey, New York Times–bestselling author “Decidedly good, clean, unwholesome fun.” —The Baltimore Sun “A witty, fast-paced, detective tale that also manages to update vampire lore in clever and imaginative ways.” —El Paso Times
