Book excerpt: Now in Mass Market. An Epic Battle Against Mind-Controlling Alien Invaders as Only Robert A. Heinlein, the Best-Selling Grand Master of Science Fiction, Could Tell It. “One of the most influential writers in American literature.” —The New York Times Book Review. First came the news that a flying saucer had landed in Iowa. Then came the announcement that the whole thing was a hoax. End of story. Case closed. Except that two agents of the most secret intelligence agency in the U.S. government were on the scene and disappeared without reporting in. And four more agents who were sent in also disappeared. So the head of the agency and his two top agents went in and managed to get out with their discovery: an invasion is underway by slug-like aliens who can touch a human and completely control his or her mind. What the humans know, they know. What the slugs want, no matter what, the human will do. And most of Iowa is already under their control. Sam Cavanaugh was one of the agents who discovered the truth. Unfortunately, that was just before he was taken over by one of the aliens and began working for the invaders, with no will of his own. And he has just learned that a high official in the Treasury Department is now under control of the aliens. Since the Treasury Department includes the Secret Service, which safeguards the President of the United States, control of the entire nation is near at hand .

Book excerpt: From riches to rags, Milena is growing up in the city of Prague at the turn of the twentieth century. Her parents' once prosperous theatre lies in disrepair and her life seems to be in ruins, and has been since that fateful night her father died in a tragic accident and Milena's beautiful, talented Mother went missing. No trace of her has been found. But Milena has never lost hope that she will come back. The day she meets the flamboyant Puppet Master and his menacing protégés, the twins Zdenko and Zdenka, under the shadow of Prague's famous Astronomical Clock in the Old Town square is, coincidentally, the date of her mother's birthday. And it's the day Milena's grandmother chooses to reveal to her the story of her ancestors... and of her legacy. Or perhaps it's not such a coincidence. Joanne Owen's debut novel skilfully mingles the legends of Bohemia in a story rich in the traditions of circus, theatre and magic, all set in a city waiting to lay bare a myriad of secrets. Longlisted for the Branford Boase Award 2009 and the Carnegie Medal.

Download or read book Tales of the Puppet Master written by Pierre S. Freeman and published by Wheatmark, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The published works of H. Spencer Lewis, founder of the Rosicrucian cult AMORC, have been read by millions over the past hundred years. Many who believed that his writings contained the secrets of the universe soon found themselves controlled and brainwashed by an organization they hoped would bring enlightenment. For twenty-six years author Pierre S. Freeman was one of these victims. Now he is speaking out to help prevent others from falling into the same trap. In Tales of the Puppet Master: Emperor (Imperator) Speaks, Freeman examines five of H. Spencer Lewis's well-known publications. The truths exposed include how Lewis: • was able to gain the public's trust and boost his intellectual and scientific platform by posing as a public watchdog for subliminal messages, all the while seeking to administer his own mind control program • used questionable cosmology and science to shape himself into the image of God • explained his doctrine of reincarnation through a lame, fictional story of early man • had connections to Nazi Germany, Mussolini, and other anti-Semitic movements This compelling exploration examines the dangers of brainwashing and how one individual has been able to exude power over others through his writings and methodologies. Never before has anyone challenged AMORC and its founder's works so directly.

Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive history of the most successful straight-to-video horror franchise of all time: Puppet Master. It provides an in-depth exploration of all 14 films to date--including a made-for-TV crossover and a theatrical reboot--and the action figures, comics, and other merchandise that have helped to keep the brand alive for the past 30 years. Puppet Master was the first film for independent producer extraordinaire Charles Band's Full Moon Entertainment, launching a franchise and a micro-budget studio that have both continued to this day. What led to the film's success? How did a little movie about killer puppets, designed to cater to the then-booming video market, wind up surviving video stores themselves? How did a series that had never even had a theatrical entry wind up with an unusually successful toy series? All of these questions are answered within these pages. Featuring new interviews with some of the biggest creative minds behind the franchise, as well as dozens of behind-the-scenes photos, this book is the ultimate guide to horror's most murderous marionettes.
