Book excerpt: From an Eisner Award–winning author, a supernatural thriller about a man who confronts a ghost while searching for artifacts of a Native American tribe. Vaughan Beadles, Professor of Anthropology at Creighton University, is at the top of his game. Not only does he have a beautiful wife and baby son, Beadles has just taken possession of the largest uncatalogued post-Anasazi Indian collection in the world. Creighton has long maintained the existence of the Azuma, a previously unknown and extremely belligerent southwest Amerindian tribe. When a scorpion crawls out of a bowl and stings Beadles’ student, his world turns upside down. The university charges Beadles with theft and the police charge him with homicide. He loses his job, his wife, and his future. Beadles’ only chance at redemption is to prove the Azuma existed, setting him on a path that will inexorably lead to a terrifying confrontation in the Arizona desert with a creature beyond belief. “Mike Baron is like Quentin Tarantino on paper.” —Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times–bestselling author

Book excerpt: NEW NOVEL IN JOHN RINGO'S BLACK TIDE RISING SERIES From his corner office on the forty-fourth floor of the Bank of the Americas tower on Wall Street, Tom Smith, global managing director for security, could see the Statue of Liberty, Battery Park—and a ravening zombie horde. Officially, Smith was paid to preserve the lives and fortunes of employees, billionaires, and other clients. And with an implacable virus that turned the infected into ravenous zombies tearing through the city, the country, and the world, his job just got a lot harder. Good thing Smith, late of the Australian special forces, isn’t a man to give up easily. But saving civilization is going to take more than the traditional banking toolbox of lawyers, guns, and money. Smith needs infected human spinal tissue to formulate a vaccine—and he needs it by the truckload. To get it, he will have to forge a shady alliance with both the politicians of the City of New York and some of its less savory entrepreneurs. But all of his back-alley dealing may amount to nothing if he can’t stave off the fast-moving disease as it sweeps across the planet, leaving billions dead in its wake. And if he fails, his only fallback is an incomplete plan to move enough personnel to safe havens and prepare to restart civilization. What’s more, there are others who have similar plans—and believe it or not, they’re even less charitable than a Wall Street investment banker. Sooner or later Smith will have to deal with them. But first he has to survive the Fall. A New Novel in John Ringo’s best-selling Black Tide Rising zombie apocalypse series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller John Ringo's Epic Zombie Series, Adapted by Comics Legend Chuck Dixon! A THRILLING ADAPTATION OF THE BEST-SELLING BLACK TIDE RISING SERIES The media calls it the Pacific Flu. The CDC calls it H7D3, and it spreads like wildfire. The virus combines the worst symptoms of Rabies and the common Flu, and is suspected to be man-made. The first reports of feral, cannibalistic “zombie-like” symptoms were met with disbelief and skeptical amusement, but nobody’s laughing now. Scientists, backed by the world’s governments and its wealthiest institutions, race against the clock to develop a cure as infections rise and cities fall. A glimmer of hope appears as a vaccine is discovered, but its production requires harvesting the spinal tissue of the infected, a grim task that tests the limits of human morality. With no other choices apparent, time is quickly running out before hordes of infected overwhelm the last remaining bastions of civilization. In the first days of the outbreak, a college history professor receives a cryptic warning from a trusted source. Its baffling, yet unmistakable message translates as: “PACK UP, GET OUT, AND GO NOW!” Steve Smith and his family don’t waste any time; they leave their normal, comfortable lives behind to get ahead of the inevitable panic and survive the end of the world!

BLACK TIDE RISING SERIES: Under a Graveyard Sky To Sail a Darkling Sea Islands of Rage and Hope Strands of Sorrow Black Tide Rising Voices of the Fall We Shall Rise At the End of the World At the End of the Journey The Valley of Shadows River of Night Praise for Black Tide Rising: The Graphic Novel: “A badass tale of the apocalypse, told John Ringo-style with an extra dose of awesome from Chuck Dixon! It isn't just about the end of the world; it's about what it takes to come out the other side.” —Larry Correia “So you think you've read every kind of zombie tale to be told? Wrong! Chuck Dixon and team pull out all the stops with Black Tide Rising and twist the genre on its ear by populating the story with characters you actually care about! That's almost sacrilege! With Santacruz and Smith on the art chores, this is a must have for the horror and zombie fan. Your library is naked without it.” —Graham Nolan “Black Tide Rising would seem fantastical — except the last few years have proved otherwise. Illustrates the importance of free thinkers, being prepared, being vigilant, and having a plan! I want to be in the movie!” —Dean Cain “[D]elivers all the zombie action fans crave, plus sly allusions to a western culture that has lost its way. Even better? Some eye-popping panels you'll want to blow up and frame for your movie room.” —Christian Toto “[A] terrific graphic novel that serves as both an allegory for our current COVID nonsense, as well as graphically (pardon the pun) depicting what a real viral pandemic would look like. Black Tide Rising strikes a blow for individual liberty and freedom, which is the only thing that stands in the way of the tyranny we are seeing established in the West, after its murderous run in Europe and the Far East.” —Nick Searcy About Black Tide Rising (anthology): “. . . an entertaining batch of . . . action-packed tales. Certainly, fans of Ringo’s particular brand of action-adventure will be pleased.” —Booklist “This anthology broadens Ringo’s Black Tide world, serving up doses of humanity amid the ravenous afflicted.

Seeking a simpler life, she moves to a quaint village in Crete, where she joins the Animal Welfare movement, a cause close to her heart. Yet she soon finds that attitudes toward animals in her new home are more complex than she expected. European vets make periodic visits, attempting to control the burgeoning population of ownerless animals. As her son discovers a newfound passion for their cause, they adopt a dog once trained for fighting. But life in Greece takes a darker turn when the far-right party, ‘The Golden Dawn,’ rises to power. The government harnesses an experimental ‘Superdog’ program, envisioning dogs not just as pets but as the new workforce, replacing human salaries. However, the unintended consequences of tampering with animal DNA pose a grave threat to the world at large. As the situation spirals out of control, it’s the mother and son who find themselves at the heart of this unfolding crisis, and it’s her autistic son who emerges as an unexpected beacon of hope.

Download or read book Lost in Venice written by Beverly Paik and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may have traveled to some of these destinations yourself, but chances are you've never become tangled in the predicaments that this pair of travelers has encountered. Beverly Paik is looking for adventure beyond the ordinary and usually stumbles onto it while her husband, always the skeptic, is traveling with her. The dialogue between them runs like a continuous thread, whether they are stepping onto a glacier from a helicopter or climbing among the ruins of a remote archeological site. The unexpected is always about to happen, whether on the streets of Paris, in a Tibetan monastery, or in the rain forests of Costa Rica. The highlights of Lost in Venice are the sympathetic and revealing portraits of the people that they meet along the way. There are interesting nuggets of information and commentary deftly tucked into each episode. Whether you are flying halfway round the world or happily ensconced at home, reading these endearing anecdotes will give the illusion of trudging right along beside them. The author claims her stories are ninety percent truth and ten percent fiction. Your challenge is to decide what is fictional and what is real.

Download or read book Serpent Rising The Kundalini Compendium Magyar Ford t s written by Neven Paar and published by Winged Shoes Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-29 with total page 779 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium a 17 éves Kundalini átalakulási utam végeredménye, miután 2004-ben egy teljes és tartós ébredésem után végérvényesen kitágította a tudatosságomat. Miután megtapasztaltam egy teljes vizuális frissítést, amely lehetővé teszi számomra, hogy naponta tanúja legyek a világ holografikus természetének, tudtam, hogy ami velem történt, az egyedülálló. Ezért életem következő részében úgy döntöttem, hogy kihasználom az adottságomat, és annak szentelem magam, hogy megtanuljam a láthatatlan energiavilág tudományát, amellyel szoros kapcsolatban állok, miközben kifejlesztem a megfelelő nyelvi készségeket, hogy felfedezéseimet átfogóan kommunikálhassam. A Kundalini felébresztése része a Lelked földi küldetésének. Végső célja, hogy optimalizálja toroidális energiameződet (Merkaba) és átalakítson téged Fénylénnyé, lehetővé téve a dimenziók közötti utazást a tudatosságon keresztül. Ha megfelelő ismeretekkel rendelkezel ezen a területen, képessé válhatsz arra, hogy átvedd az irányítást a Spirituális Fejlődésed felett, és beteljesítsd a sorsodat, hogy a következő életedben folytathasd az utadat a Csillagok között. Ezért írtam ezt a könyvet. Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium mindent tartalmaz, amit a Kundalini témájában tudni kell, beleértve a felemelkedési folyamat hatását az emberi anatómiára és az idegrendszer szerepét, hogyan szabadítsuk fel agyunk teljes potenciálját és ébresszük fel szívünk erejét, és hogyan használjuk a spirituális gyógymódokat, mint a kristályok, hangvillák, aromaterápia és tattvák, hogy növeljük csakráink rezgését. A könyv nagy részét a yoga filozófiájának és gyakorlatának szenteli (az Ayurvédával együtt), beleértve az ászanák, pránájámák, mudrák, mantrák és meditációk listáját, valamint azok használati utasításait. Részletesen tárgyalom a Kundalini felébredésének és átalakulásának folyamatát is, beleértve az állandó és részleges felébredéseket, a Lucid Dreaminget, a Siddhiket (pszichikus erők), a testen kívüli élményeket, az étel, a víz, a tápanyagok és a szexuális energia szerepét az integráció során, valamint a csúcseseményeket az általános átalakulási folyamatban. Mivel én voltam a tudós és a laboratórium egyben, ez a könyv tartalmazza az összes tudásomat és tapasztalatomat, amit a Spirituális utazásom során szereztem, beleértve azokat az alapvető meditációkat, amelyeket a Kundalini energia stagnálásával és elakadásával való találkozás során fejlesztettem ki. Végül, mivel az évek során sok Kundalini-ébresztett embernek segítettem, akik "a sötétben tapogatózva" keresték a válaszokat, az ő leggyakoribb kérdéseiket és aggodalmaikat is belefoglaltam. Serpent Rising: The Kundalini Compendium egy alapos és haladó jellegű ismertetés a Kundaliniről, amelyet mindenkinek kötelező olvasmány, aki érdeklődik a téma és a spirituális növekedés iránt.
