Book excerpt: This novel is a science fiction adventure with aliens and mutants and immigrants struggling for survival in East Africa, where deception, savagery and death are an inherent part of daily life, and where indigenous hatred and unimaginable horrors fuel anarchy and rebellion.The Mbili are the ruling class. The Ine the underclass. In a land populated by these grotesque mutants, one thing is clear. They will never live together in peace. It is not peace the Mbili seek. It is total domination. When Paul Henry, an accountant for an international accounting firm, decides to emigrate to Uhuru, he knows only that he can never return once exposed to the deadly Lassa fever, that Oneida, the love of his life, is scheduled to join him in two weeks, and that his life is pretty damn good. He is disavowed of the latter even before Uhuruan Airways Flight 100 lands in Mombasa, when he sees things out the window of the unmanned Tristar that challenge his sanity.How does an outsider like Paul Henry cope in this environment? He is no ordinary immigrant. He is a survivor. And his every instinct is to fight back. Not only to escape, but to keep his fianc e Oneida from flying down to join him in the Hell that is Uhuru.Unknown to the mutants and immigrants, there is an alien spacecraft circling Earth, which has more than a passing interest in the events unfolding in the Rift Valley. Will these visitors from another planet stop Paul Henry if the Mbili and Ine prove incapable? And what is their plan for the civilized world? Especially Great Britain?

Download or read book Written Under Quarantine written by Hawken Stone and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-26 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How To Get Through ANY Crisis And Have People Desperately Looking to You For Leadership Even If the Power Goes Out, the Stores Run Out of Food, and Your Bank Shuts Down You don''t want to make these fatal mistakes in a crisis... It was March 2020, and I was taking a normal trip to the grocery store when I noticed the parking lot was overflowing with vehicles. Inside the store, people were flying back and forth with their carts piled high with supplies. My skin grew cold from the uncertainty as I dodged my way down the isles with cans of soup rolling by. I made it to the egg section of the store when I looked on with the horror of a father catching his son sticking crayons up his nose. The shelves were completely empty, except for a few broken egg shells dripping sadly onto the floor. People were absolutely PANICKING. And when they panicked they became DANGEROUS. You know exactly what I mean, you probably saw it yourself, we all did....They didn''t care about who they hurt as long as they got what they wanted. It taught me a lot about people - and a lot about fear. Here''s the interesting part: All of the survivalists, preppers, homesteaders, and farmers were suddenly looked to for guidance. I was one of them, and if anyone knew how to deal with a crisis it was me... I grew up having to survive things most people can only read about. I did without utlities, lived in a van, survived on squirrel, and even experienced multiple natural disasters. It''s not the backstory of your typical Millenial these days, but it gave me skills that are invaluable for getting through a crisis....and it was those skills that had people asking me for help. Well, I ended up getting sick and being quarantined. Shortly after, I was furloughed from my job, giving me a lot of time on my hands. I''m sure many of you know what I mean, huh? I knew I couldn''t just sit around and be lazy. I had to do SOMETHING to help. I knew that in times like these people needed certainty, which means they needed a plan of action. Not some book on 1001 knots or 11 ways to build an eco-friendly chipmunk trap. So I wrote and illustrated "Written Under Quarantine" as a way to help everyday people know what to do in a SHTF scenario (when a crisis hits and their food/health/safety is in danger). In this illustrated guide you will discover lost secrets and common sense plans of action like: The step-by-step P.A.N.I.C. Process that gives you the blueprint to keep you and your family out of harms way and fed during a crisis so you don''t have to buy 50 different books to prepare. Essential lists of prepping supplies that you will need to survive a crisis so you can prepare beforehand and not have to fight a dangerous hungry mob to get stocked up. The hard-learned secrets to creating a safe homestead for long term survival...even if you don''t have money, electricity, water, or you live in an apartment in the city. (You''ll also learn why that makes you vulnerable) With this system you will also discover the counter-intuitive skillset that brings people to your side to have them begging you for help in a crisis, and not the other way around. If you are tired of being uncertain about the future and feeling that dread of having to stock up at the last minute everytime a storm comes, or riot breaks out then Click the "Add to Cart" button to get your book instantly and discover the simple ways anyone can be prepared for the worst, without looking crazy or going broke. ***This high quality printed books price is reflective of printing costs for a rich color book***

Download or read book Stand Firm written by Svend Brinkmann and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-27 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pace of modern life is accelerating. To keep up, we must keep on moving and adapting – constantly striving for greater happiness and success. Or so we are told. But the demands of life in the fast lane come at a price: stress, fatigue and depression are at an all-time high, while our social interactions have become increasingly self-serving and opportunistic. How can we resist today's obsession with introspection and self-improvement? In this witty and bestselling book, Danish philosopher and psychologist Svend Brinkmann argues that we must not be afraid to reject the self-help mantra and 'stand firm'. The secret to a happier life lies not in finding your inner self but in coming to terms with yourself in order to coexist peacefully with others. By encouraging us to stand firm and get a foothold in life, this vibrant anti-self-help guide offers a compelling alternative to life coaching, positive thinking and the need always to say 'yes!'

Download or read book A Beginning at the End written by Mike Chen and published by MIRA. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four survivors unite in the aftermath of a global pandemic as the nation rebuilds in this character-driven postapocalyptic tale of family, love, and hope. From the New York Times–bestselling author of Star Wars: Brotherhood Six years after a virus wiped out most of the planet’s population, former pop star Moira is living under a new identity to escape her past—until her domineering father launches a sweeping public search to track her down. Desperate for a fresh start herself, jaded event planner Krista navigates the world for those still too traumatized to go outside, but she never reaches out on her own behalf. Rob has tried to protect his daughter, Sunny, by keeping a heartbreaking secret, but when strict government rules threaten to separate parent and child, Rob needs to prove himself worthy in the city’s eyes by connecting with people again. Krista, Moira, Rob and Sunny meet by circumstance and their lives begin to twine together. When reports of another outbreak throw the fragile society into panic, the friends are forced to finally face everything that came before—and everything they still stand to lose. Because sometimes having one person is enough to keep the world going. “This postapocalyptic slice-of-life novel from Chen delivers big emotions by keeping the focus small. . . . By foregrounding family, Chen manages to imbue his apocalypse with heart, hope, and humanity. Sci-fi fans will delight in this lovingly rendered tale.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review, PW Picks) “Sometimes it is not the violent battles of post-apocalyptic stories that pull readers in; it is the emotional connection of humanity finding their way. Chen’s prose lights a brilliant, fragile path through the darkness.” —Library Journal (starred review) “The best kind of dystopian novel: one rooted deeply in the hearts of his characters and emphasizing hope and connection over fear. Chen has a true gift for making the biggest of worlds center around the most complex workings of hearts, and his newest is compelling, realistic, and impossible to put down.” —Booklist (starred review)

Download or read book Space Struck written by Paige Lewis and published by Sarabande Books. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This astonishing, self-assured debut leads us on an exploration to the stars and back, begging us to reconsider our boundaries of self, time, space, and knowledge. The speaker writes, “...the universe/is an arrow/without end/and it asks only one question;/How dare you?” Zig-zagging through the realms of nature, science, and religion, one finds St. Francis sighing in the corner of a studio apartment, tides that are caused by millions of oysters “gasping in unison,” an ark filled with women in its stables, and prayers that reach God fastest by balloon. There’s pathos: “When my new lover tells me I’m correct to love him, I/realize the sound isn’t metal at all. It’s not the coins rattling/ on concrete, but the fingers scraping to pick them up.” And humor, too: “...even the sun’s been sighing Not you again/when it sees me.” After reading this far-reaching, inventive collection, we too are startled, space struck, our pockets gloriously “filled with space dust.”

Download or read book The Story of Me written by Marjorie Worthington and published by University of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autofiction, or works in which the eponymous author appears as a fictionalized character, represents a significant trend in postwar American literature, when it proliferated to become a kind of postmodern cliché. The Story of “Me” charts the history and development of this genre, analyzing its narratological effects and discussing its cultural implications. By tracing autofiction’s conceptual issues through case studies and an array of texts, Marjorie Worthington sheds light on a number of issues for postwar American writing: the maleness of the postmodern canon—and anxieties created by the supposed waning of male privilege—the relationship between celebrity and authorship, the influence of theory, the angst stemming from claims of the “death of the author,” and the rise of memoir culture. Worthington constructs and contextualizes a bridge between the French literary context, from which the term originated, and the rise of autofiction among various American literary movements, from modernism to New Criticism to New Journalism. The Story of “Me” demonstrates that the burgeoning of autofiction serves as a barometer of American literature, from modernist authorial effacement to postmodern literary self-consciousness.

Download or read book This Is How You Die written by Matthew Bennardo and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If a machine could predict how you would die, would you want to know? This is the tantalizing premise of This Is How You Die, the brilliant follow-up anthology to the self-published bestseller, Machine of Death. THIS IS HOW YOU DIE Stories of the Inscrutable, Infallible, Inescapable Machine of Death The machines started popping up around the world. The offer was tempting: with a simple blood test, anyone could know how they would die. But the machines didn't give dates or specific circumstances-just a single word or phrase. DROWNED, CANCER, OLD AGE, CHOKED ON A HANDFUL OF POPCORN. And though the predictions were always accurate, they were also often frustratingly vague. OLD AGE, it turned out, could mean either dying of natural causes, or being shot by an elderly, bedridden man in a botched home invasion. The machines held onto that old-world sense of irony in death: you can know how it's going to happen, but you'll still be surprised when it does. This addictive anthology--sinister, witty, existential, and fascinating--collects the best of the thousands of story submissions the editors received in the wake of the success of the first volume, and exceeds the first in every way.
