Download or read book A Series of Unfortunate Events 01 The Bad Beginning written by Lemony Snicket and published by Egmont Books (UK). This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is nothing to be found in the pages of A Series of Unfortunate Events but misery and despair. You still have time to choose another international best-seller to read. But if you must know what unpleasantries befall the charming and clever Baudelaire children read on . . . In The Bad Beginning the three youngsters encounter a greedy and repulsive villain, itchy clothing, a disastrous fire, a plot to steal their fortune and cold porridge for breakfast. Then again, why trouble yourself with the unfortunate resolutions? With 5 million copies sold in the UK alone, one might consider Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events to make him one of the most successful children’s authors of the past decade. We, however, consider these miserable so-called adventure stories and the Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey that accompanied the books for children as nothing more than a dreadful mistake.

Download or read book The Sound of Light written by Don Cusic and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2002 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sound of Light is a sweeping overview of the history of gospel music. Powerful and incisive, it traces contemporary Christianity and Christian music to the 16th century and the Protestant Reformation after examining music in the Bible and early church music. From the psalms of the early Puritans through the hymns of human composure of Isaac Watts and the social activism of the Wesleys, gospel music was established in 18th century America. With the camp meeting songs of the Kentucky Revival, the spirituals that came from the slave culture, and the hymns from the great revival after the Civil War, gospel music advanced through the 19th century. The 20th century brought recording technology and electronic media to the table. Gospel music has developed with Christian revivals and the history of American gospel music is the history of Christianity in America. Gospel music reflects the American spirit of freedom and the free market as a Christian culture emerges in the 20th century, providing a spiritual as well as economic foundation. The Sound of Light presents gospel music as part of the history of contemporary Christianity. It is a work broad in scope that defines a music essential to understanding American culture as well as American music in the 20th century. Don Cusic is the author of ten books, including the biography Eddy Arnold: I'll Hold You in My Heart and an encyclopedia of cowboys, Cowboys and the Wild West: An A-Z Guide from the Chisholm Trail to the Silver Screen. He joined the faculty at Middle Tennessee State University in 1982, teaching courses in the music business. He earned a Masters and Doctorate in Literature from MTSU. Since August of 1994, Cusic has been Professor of Music Business at Belmont University.

Named One of the Best Books of the Year by NPR, the San Francisco Chronicle, and Southern Living Lois Clary is a software engineer at General Dexterity, a San Francisco robotics company with world-changing ambitions. She codes all day and collapses at night, her human contact limited to the two brothers who run the neighborhood hole-in-the-wall from which she orders dinner every evening. Then, disaster!

She must keep it alive, they tell her—feed it daily, play it music, and learn to bake with it. Lois is no baker, but she could use a roommate, even if it is a needy colony of microorganisms. Soon, not only is she eating her own homemade bread, she’s providing loaves to the General Dexterity cafeteria every day. Then the company chef urges her to take her product to the farmer’s market—and a whole new world opens up.

Download or read book The Covenant of Wickersham Hollow written by Thomas A. Bradley and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wickersham Hollow holds the dark secret of a deal made in hell, a deal made on Halloween night in 1697. The secret is kept within a house - a house with a will of its own, a house long empty of living souls - a house with a heart of pure evil. Sequestered within that house, within its walls and hallways, is the memory of a covenant, a pact born of a man's lust for the body and soul a young woman. A pact forged in witchcraft by Torrance Wickersham, the founder of Wickersham Hollow. Now, three hundred years later, led by Tommy Vorland, seven teenagers (Henry Travis, Amy Pritchard, Lucy Darrow, Matt Holloway, Janet Egan and Tina Farley), in search of a Halloween night thrill get more than they bargained for, when they make their way into the old Wickersham house and awaken a malevolence that has lain dormant for centuries. Their nightmare begins when they discover that the house has a malicious mind of its own and Lucy is gruesomely murdered by one of its tricks. Things go from bad to hellish when Tommy is beset by a ghostly apparition that drives him insane, leaving Henry and Amy to take charge and find a way to get everyone out. But escape becomes no more than an elusive shadow when Wickersham's spirit once again roams free and turns his lustful desires toward Amy. Now, trapped in a dungeon at the mercy of Wickersham and the demon incubus he summoned, Henry and Amy must prepare themselves for the unthinkable. But this battle is not yet over, as an unexpected ally rises to turn the tide. The spirit of Mother Cassandra, a voodoo priestess who lost her daughter and her life to Wickersham all those years ago, bestows upon the group a gift and a curse - the ability to read each other's thoughts and summon a power none knew they held within. But all gifts come with a price. And when a dark deal is proffered, Henry accepts and is given a way to lead the group to safety. Their nightmare was over.Or was it? Seventy years later, Henry Travis, now eighty-six, discovers that his granddaughter, Annabel, and her husband, Brian, have purchased and renovated the old Wickersham place. He now knows the time has come to unveil its secrets - and his. He also knows that the time has come to honor the deal he made all those years ago. Somehow he must convince Annabel and Brian to abandon that house before it's too late. When his attempts to dissuade them fail and they take possession of the house, the nightmare begins again, and their only hope for survival depends on the reunion of old friends, and the assistance of a descendant of Torrance Wickersham, the only man who know the secret within the secret, and may just hold the key to ending the nightmare once and for all. The questions are: can they summon the courage to go back into that house; are they strong enough to defeat a festering evil that has three hundred years to grow stronger, and are they prepared to face what just might be their last stand?
