Suddenly, the race against time is on. Can Justin convert his vintage motorbike into a time machine, rescue his mum and discover the identity of their resident spy in less than a week ... or will the dreaded Thyme Curse claim another life?
Download or read book Private Avenues Born of Solitude written by Michael S Ball and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-11-03 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the first I included poetic lines, from my novella ‘Stand and deliver, to my setting in the places of my childhood, my longest tale, Upon this tree. Either spoken or as a feed to a chapter. An example is the poem 'Remember me (included in full in the 'Love' section) Almost a biographical theme, I mostly write in rhythm and rhyme, a natural instance that appeals to me, though I feel it isn’t a necessity in story verses, where it can appear tedious. Like most poets this selection comes from life, love and memories, recollections dear to my heart, whether it may be the love of nature, film, music, yearnings to love, or simple nonsense, where throughout any merit I attribute to God and his encouragement. Also I feel I must add the helping hand of a precious Godly soul, Patricia Tijerina, whose inspiration and encouragement was immeasurable. I hope all who venture to read a part of my life find pleasure and enjoyment in doing so, to know and sense a little of the rapture I convey, whether it be my innermost feelings, or the life-long love of nature, film and childhood. Written under pressure that I assume most could not bear, this book of verse is long overdue. I hope it gives an insight into my life, feelings and memories. Thank you to all who read my first volume of verse, knowing part of my life and ever loving memories, interlaced with the love of nature, film and lighter moments. Michael S Ball

Download or read book Justin Thyme written by Bert Hornback and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this book should have been that of its main story: "Dick Nerdsford and Co." But Dick is the least interesting of its three main characters, and agreeing that such is the case, he gladly stepped back into the background. And Basil Basil-Basil, in a more than friendly gesture, stepped back with him. That left Justin Thyme to bask in eponymity--which frightened his shyness so much that his feet grew numb and he felt damp under his arms. Basil's mother, Rosemary, would have been quite comfortable as our central character, in a sort of sons-and-lovers role. But she wasn't asked. Nor was the requisite American in our story, Dona Nobis. In our discussions of a title for this story Dona had offered "Peace at Nether Wallop," which (as we shall see) could have been appropriate. Dick Nerdsford was not involved in the discussion of this book's title, though he is one of its central characters. He would not have thought of himself as such, but Basil did, and so did Basil's mother.

But little do they know that the ill wind that blew in the stork is an ominous harbinger of things to come. Saradopoulos officially arrives at 12:01 a.m. on Friday the thirteenth. The first twenty-five pound baby with a full set of teeth, she is quickly named Sarah for practical purposes. After Sarah bites a nurses finger clean off with her enormous set of choppers, word spreads about the unique child; she is immediately isolated, provided with a custom-made muzzle, and ushered out of the hospital in the dark of the night so as to avoid the crush of curious onlookers. Despite several attempts by her parents to abandon her, Sarah manages to grow up, attend law school, marries, and become an attorney. In this tongue-in-cheek, satirical tale, Sarah throws herself headfirst into a life filled with adventure, a band of misfit friends, and a never-ending quest to be normal in what turns out to be a very abnormal world.
