Download or read book Sam Minot Reader written by Sam Minot and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These are two works of fiction that have a common statement, mainly that the human experience and the anomaly of life itself exists for a purpose, to discover God. The first story, The Red and the Green, takes a wild trip into the future where men and women are separated by a type of cosmic divorce. There are two gods that have created the human race and they are represented by the opposite colors: red and green. The author is summoned to this era through the touching of a fern and it is his duty to create a painting that will liberate one of the diseased gods. The second story, The Last Tear, touches an archetypical myth of the lost goddess, Sofia, whom was ousted from Christianity; for in the early Gnostic teachings there was Sofia and Jesus in the more allegorical rather than literalist teachings. In this story a young woman gets thrown into this goddess-like existence after a car accident. She wanders around spreading the word of peace and salvation to anyone who is receptive enough. The world reaches a boiling point and an earth-destroying comet hits annihilating everything but the souls of the pure.

A murder on the high seas. A remarkable detective duo. A demon who may or may not exist. It's 1634, and Samuel Pipps, the world's greatest detective, is being transported to Amsterdam to be executed for a crime he may, or may not, have committed. Traveling with him is his loyal bodyguard, Arent Hayes, who is determined to prove his friend innocent. Among the other guests is Sara Wessel, a noblewoman with a secret. But no sooner is their ship out to sea than devilry begins to blight the voyage. A strange symbol appears on the sail. A dead leper stalks the decks. Livestock dies in the night. And then the passengers hear a terrible voice, whispering to them in the darkness, promising three unholy miracles, followed by a slaughter. First an impossible pursuit. Second an impossible theft. And third an impossible murder. Could a demon be responsible for their misfortunes? With Pipps imprisoned, only Arent and Sara can solve a mystery that stretches back into their past and now threatens to sink the ship, killing everybody on board. Shirley Jackson meets Sherlock Holmes in this chilling thriller of supernatural horror, occult suspicion, and paranormal mystery on the high seas.

Book excerpt: When Cisco Collins returns to his home town thirty years after saving it from being swallowed by a hell mouth opened by an ancient pirate ghost, he realises that being a childhood hero isn't like it was in the movies. Especially when nobody remembers the heroic bits – even the friends who once fought alongside him. Struggling with single parenting and treated as bit of a joke, Cisco isn't really in the Christmas spirit like everyone else. A fact that's made worse by the tendrils of the pirate's powers creeping back into our world and people beginning to die in bizarre ways. With the help of a talking fox, an enchanted forest, a long-lost friend haunting his dreams, and some 80s video game consoles turned into weapons, Cisco must now convince his friends to once again help him save the day. Yet they quickly discover that being a ghostbusting hero is so much easier when you don't have schools runs, parent evenings, and nativity plays to attend. And even in the middle of a supernatural battle, you always need to bring snacks and wipes...

With each quest he sends them on, things become clearer—and more confusing. He wants to build a town, but why? What need does he have for a dangerous drunk, or a monster hunting assassin?

Download or read book Children of the Storm written by Michael Ryan Hahn and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At summer camp, a combative collection of Boy Scouts becomes the first to face a shocking event out of a horror film: a bizarre storm mysteriously appears over the forest one night and spins above their camp. This otherworldly tempest moves in a way that no normal storm should: willfully. Predatory monsters that can only be seen in reflections rain down to earth wherever the storm goes. They bite and paralyze their victims before feeding on them and prey on everything that moves. The storm soon races its way to suburbia and into the city, leaving chaos and few survivors in its wake. One of the Scouts is brought together by the mayhem with other young survivors from different parts of town, and these kids, who would never have met otherwise, become fast friends as they come to believe they can survive—or even stop—the storm. But first they must outwit adults who would rather hurt them than follow them. Invisible monsters are not the only things that kill.
Download or read book The Dagda s Harp written by Sharan Newman and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2014-01-30 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharan Newman’s acclaimed first novel, The Dagda’s Harp, written for young adults, is a fresh and beautiful interpretation of the classic Irish myth. Upon its publication in 1976, the Philadelphia Children’s Reading Round Table selected it as its Book of the Month. This is the story of Michael, a young Druid apprentice and his quest for a lost harp which will save his homeland, Ierne, from conquest by the evil Formorians. Michael’s childhood friend, Shana, is of the immortal race of Tuatha, sworn enemies of the Formorians. They are guided by Broga, a tiny, pipe playing Lipricanni, to a strange and mysterious lake where they meet the boastful centurion, Colinus. At the home of Michael’s warrior father, they meet Patrik, an educated Christian slave, who will help them look for the harp. They encounter many strange enchantments on their journey, including the fearsome Maebdh, queen of the Formorians and Michael’s stepmother. But it is at the great battle of Magh Tuiregh that the group discovers the true power of the Dagda’s Harp and the heroism that is necessary for good to triumph over evil. PRAISE: “The Author has created her lusty romance on ancient Irish legends. It’s an artful evocation of times when magic-benign and baneful- was taken for granted. The lad Michael is a reluctant druid apprentice. But he’s urged into derring-do when the plight of Shana and her mother are revealed to him. They had been taken in by Michael’s people by order of the chief Druid, Proinsas, when they had fled from the wicked Formorians. Proisnas now asks for Michael’s help, a quest for Shana’s uncle and the mysterious, supernatural harp of Dagda, ruler of the underworld. The young man literally goes through fire to save his people and his honor. It would be hard to find a more pleasurable way to spend a couple of hours than in the company of the romantic characters celebrated in Sharan Newman’s story. (12 and up)” —Publishers Weekly “Her well planned structure, fully drawn characters and suspenseful narrative become a colorful cornucopia bursting with the unpicked fruit of Gaelic mythology…Ms. Newman’s story can be enjoyed equally by parents and their young alike, especially if they are of Irish descent and want to understand Ireland’s cultural legacy. This book really excited me.” —Eleanor Eby, The Philadelphia Inquirer “Newman has faceted a well paced story with more dialogue, which will appeal to children not as versed in the fantasy realms.” —Booklist

Download or read book Running the Amazon written by Joe Kane and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-12-14 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The voyage began in the lunar terrain of the Peruvian Andes, where coca leaf is the only remedy against altitude sickness. It continued down rapids so fierce they could swallow a raft in a split second. It ended six months and 4,200 miles later, where the Amazon runs gently into the Atlantic. Joe Kane's personal account of the first expedition to travel the entirety of the world's longest river is a riveting adventure in the tradition of Joseph Conrad, filled with death-defying encounters: with narco-traffickers and Sendero Luminoso guerrillas and nature at its most unforgiving. Not least of all, Running the Amazon shows a polyglot group of urbanized travelers confronting their wilder selves -- their fear and egotism, selflessness and courage.
