Book excerpt: A trio of friends from New York City find themselves trapped inside a mechanical board game that they must dismantle in order to save themselves and generations of other children in this action-packed debut that’s a steampunk Jumanji with a Middle Eastern flair. Nothing can prepare you for The Gauntlet… It didn’t look dangerous, exactly. When twelve-year-old Farah first laid eyes on the old-fashioned board game, she thought it looked…elegant. It is made of wood, etched with exquisite images—a palace with domes and turrets, lattice-work windows that cast eerie shadows, a large spider—and at the very center of its cover, in broad letters, is written: The Gauntlet of Blood and Sand. The Gauntlet is more than a game, though. It is the most ancient, the most dangerous kind of magic. It holds worlds inside worlds. And it takes players as prisoners.

What’s stopping you from making the changes your business needs to thrive? The most dangerous move in business is the failure to make a move at all.

Book excerpt: London Wingo, an ordained minister and a fourth-year student at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary is struggling to reconcile his desires for further education with his financial worries that accompany many young couples awaiting the birth of their first child. When he applies for a church in Linden, Missouri, and, accepted by the deacons there, he feels that he has found security for his family. He does not realize that in return for this security the people of Linden expect him to defer to their practices and ideas and will use church law as well as social pressure to ensure conformity. The struggles of London and his wife Kathie to keep both their church and their spiritual integrity, rise to a powerful climax when Kathie becomes seriously ill. London realizes he must choose between Linden and the people who contributed to their unhappiness and a rich metropolitan parish where he might escape to a contented and more profitable life. James Street went to a Baptist seminary and had his own church for a few years before devoting himself to writing full-time. It is from his experiences as a young pastor that he can speak so well about the challenges facing London and Kathie Wingo ― discord, feuds, rigid mores, lack of privacy, balancing selfless service and a personal life, as well as the maturity and deepening that evolves as one hurls through life's obstacles
