The God Had Gone to Sleep is a good story rooted in Yoruba custom and tradition, enlivens the mind of the readers as it unveils and resolves tension associated with kingship and dictatorship - Moshood Folorunsho, author of When the Melon Speaks (A play) and Programme Offi cer, Educare Trust, Nigeria. This is a really lovely book, I have enjoyed reading. There is an established African style, which adds to the telling of a Nigerian story, I would not say that it should be anglicised as the style adds fl avour and character ...good language and the ability to tell a story, build tension and so on. Well done, Dele, you clearly have talent as a writer -Angela Marshall, Senior Lecturer in Law, Coventry University, UK

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Answers one of the biggest barriers to belief. Christians are increasingly seen as outdated, restrictive and judgmental when it comes to sex before marriage, cohabitation and homosexuality.

Although some leaders still blame colonialism for the poverty that is ravaging the continent today, it cannot be denied that poor governance, corruption, greed among many other ills are causing Africa's current problems. The essays in this collection The Gods Sleep Through It All discusses Africa's leadership problems and how most countries still rely on former colonisers for help despite boasting of untold natural wealth.

Book excerpt: C. S. Lewis excelled at plumbing the depths of the human heart, both the good and the bad, the beautiful and the corrupt. From science fiction and fantasy to essays, letters, and works of apologetics, Lewis has offered a wealth of insight into how to live the Christian life. In this book, Rigney explores the center of Lewis's vision for the Christian life—the personal encounter between the human self and the living God.

Download or read book Redux written by SEAN MCKEITHEN and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is about the way that people feel about the world and what makes it possible. Since it is completely fictional it is not an educational book but a thought on what we know is normal as opposed to what we want to think about as normal. The book does not cover everything but is fun to read and when it is a story is actually interesting to experience. Once in a while a book comes out that is original and Sean Mckeithen hit a home run on originality with the book Redux. The book is a little long and the editing will be interesting some times the voice fails slightly but if it is printed it will be a good book for children.
