Happy Conklin Jr. is the only 10-year-old who has to shave three times a day. Hap's dad is a brilliant inventor of screwball products, and being a Conklin kid means sometimes being experimented on. So Hap has his beard, and his five sisters each have their own unique--and often problematic--qualities too. And although Hap's dad has made a fortune with his wacky inventions sold via nonstop TV infomercials, all of that money has gone to Hap's tyrannical Grandma. While she lives in an enormous mansion, the rest of the family lives in two rooms in the basement. All Hap has ever wanted is to have a normal life, so when he sees a chance to get rid of Grandma, he takes it! He only means to swap out Grandma, but when he--oops!--sells his whole family to the aliens, he wants nothing more than to get them back. He just has to figure out . . . how?
Download or read book Bloodlines written by Adelle Krauser and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-03 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sarabeckah Abraham Weiss is suffering from more than her share of middle-aged malaise. She has always felt subordinate to all the dynamic, high-achieving men in her life, and she has been unable to find fulfilling work of her own. Now separated from her controlling husband, she is longing for him, missing the strong physical relationship that had kept them together for years. She is also increasingly disturbed by elements in the lives of their two sons, who are away at graduate school, and she bears the bulk of responsibility for her mother, who has Alzheimer's. Then, while sorting through her mother's papers, Sarabeckah uncovers a secret that her parents had carefully hidden all of her life. Everything she had thought she knew of her genetic makeup was false. None of the hereditary traits of the Abraham and Loewenthal families had ever applied to her. Whenever she had looked into a mirror to detect family resemblances, she was destined to fail; whenever she had filled out a doctor's questionnaire, her answers were lies. All the things that people routinely know of their physical and mental propensities are mysteries to her. But in the unexplored tangle of her chromosomes, there must be some valuable clues. She needs to explore them-but first she needs help to find them. Perhaps then she can dispel the nagging sense of incompleteness she has been feeling for years, a feeling only intensified on the day she discovered who she was not.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sci-fi action meets steamy paranormal romance in Gini Koch’s Alien novels, as Katherine “Kitty” Katt faces off against aliens, conspiracies, and deadly secrets. • “Futuristic high-jinks and gripping adventure.” —RT Reviews Planning any wedding is hard enough, but Katherine "Kitty" Katt and Jeff Martini have a lot more to worry about than seating arrangements, because multiple inter-stellar invasions, Alpha Team in mortal peril, and inter-alien conspiracies are all on the guest list—and the gifts they've brought contain some explosive surprises. The discovery that Martini is actually a member of the Alpha Centaurion Royal Family brings additional bad news—emissaries are on their way to see if Kitty's royal bride material. And they're not the only things coming from the Alpha Centauri system. Amazonian assassins, spies, alien beasties, shape-shifters, and representatives from the Planetary Council, combined with a tabloid reporter who's a little too on the mark, create a deadly situation for Kitty and the rest of Alpha Team. When the assassins strike far too close to home for anyone's comfort, Kitty realizes it's going to come down to more than throwing a bouquet—she's going to have to face an entire planetary consciousness and dethrone a monarch in order to make it to the church on time... Alien in the Family is the thrilling third installment of the Alien novels.

Anthony Sanchez, Author of UFO Highway, Conference Organizer of SACUFOCON Angels, Aliens and Prophecy is astonishing! I can hardly put it down." Best-selling Author of The Tujunga Canyon Contacts and renowned Earth Mysteries Investigator Ann Druffel One of the better books I have read of late as it draws upon the author's wealth of knowledge and ability to tie all the elements together--aliens, religious visions, alien abductees, time travel, parallel universes and prophecy. This special book brings up many fascinating questions, but provides many tantalizing answers to the mysteries in our world that most books in this genre fail to do." Posted on Amazon Books Awesome reading! Thank You." Dori – Florida About Angels, Aliens and Prophecy Betsey Lewis, intuitive, earth mysteries investigator and host of Rainbow Visions Radio Show since 2009, explores the mysterious connection between angels and aliens since recorded history, and the startling prophecies given by these beings in her new book, Angels, Aliens and Prophecy. Is it possible ancient aliens and time travelers have changed time lines and events? Absolutely, says Lewis who investigated these enigmatic subjects for the past forty years. In 1983, Lewis uncovered surprising information about her UFO encounters from the hypnosis session conducted by renowned UFO investigator Ann Druffel, included in the book. A secret was given to Lewis as a child, but erased from her memory until recently. She reveals the secret, her startling predictions for 2012 and beyond, and the connection between angels and aliens.

There’s none of that happening for Angus MacNamara and Erin O’Shea from a primitive 1950s Earth who are trying as hard as they can to make the best of their alien situation. MATCHMAKER ABDUCTION The big blue planet that most call New Earth desperately needs matchmakers. The original matchmakers are dead, and much worse, their DNA is no longer viable for cloning.

It's Angus and Erin versus aliens in this humorous Science Fiction Romance. NATE'S FATED MATE After a hundred years and four other wives, he should have been over her.

New Earth humans call him alien, but it is they who are strange. His fierce appearance ensures no human bride will choose him. Humans and their drama—he wants no part of it. No. That is a lie.

Author Note: It’s challenging to describe the full range of romantic humor in these books, but if you like movies like Galaxy Quest, Spaceballs, or more recently, Guardians of the Galaxy, then you’re definitely going to like this series.

Download or read book The David Suzuki Reader 2nd Edition written by David Suzuki and published by Greystone Books Ltd. This book was released on 2014 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revised and expanded edition of his collected writings, David Suzuki continues to explore the themes that have informed his work for more than four decades -- the interconnectedness of all things, our misguided elevation of economics above all else, the urgent need to deal with climate change -- but with an increased emphasis on solutions to the myriad problems we face, his inspiring vision for the future, and the legacy he hopes to leave behind. There is also more emphasis on the personal, as he recounts episodes from his childhood and early adulthood and speaks eloquently about old age, death, and the abiding role of nature and family in his life. Written with clarity, passion, and wisdom, this book is essential for anyone who is an admirer of David Suzuki, who wants to understand what science can and can't do, or who wants to make a difference. Published in Partnership with the David Suzuki Institute.
