Download or read book The Chronicles of Gabriel written by Robert A. Melos and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is not what mortals think, and neither are angels and demons. Celestials have been around since the dawn of time, occasionally being seen for what they really are and then being immortalized in pictures and in print, such as in the Bible. However, as Gabriel and Michael would both be quick to point out, those are mortal man's versions of them. Angels and demons are not good and evil, but simply two sides with differing political views, both vying for control over the balance of power, and mortal man just happens to be in the line of fire. Add to this mix a third part, Pure Souls, mortals who are somehow untainted by the standard negative energy that touches most mortals. The Pure Souls are the key to a prophecy that changes the rules. Lucifer Morningstar and his faction are in pursuit of a Pure Soul, Billy Strong, who is unaware of his key role in the grand scheme of things. Alas, Billy is an attractive young man, and Archangel Gabriel is smitten with the young man. As the saying goes, you can't help with whom you fall in love. What ensues is a action packed romp through the world of the celestial beings, and a lot of soul searching for the Archangel and the object of his affection. The gay erotic tale of celestial love and politics takes on global proportions, and traverses several levels of Heaven and Hell.

Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude weaves the political, personal, and spiritual to bring a new consciousness to storytelling.

Book excerpt: Gabriel Alden was living the fairytale... after a nightmare. He'd replaced his childhood ghosts with a lovably neurotic family. The shadows that chased him were finally laid to rest. He'd adopted a son and was about to marry the girl of his dreams. So why did he keep waiting for the other shoe to drop? Probably because it always does. After a prison break from the heart of the Privy Council, the supernatural community is shaken to the core. Despite Carter's insistence that everything is business as usual, agents are still being targeted, Barnes' forces are growing, and it's impossible to know who to trust. In the days leading up to his wedding, Gabriel finds himself questioning all kinds of things he'd believed to be certain. Can a person with his history make a decent father? Can he learn to operate within the same ethical boundaries as the others? Will his compass ever point true north, or will it always be a little skewed?

Download or read book The Scandal of the Century written by Gabriel García Márquez and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The articles and columns in The Scandal of the Century demonstrate that his forthright, lightly ironical voice just seemed to be there, right from the start . . . He’s among those rare great fiction writers whose ancillary work is almost always worth finding . . . He had a way of connecting the souls in all his writing, fiction and nonfiction, to the melancholy static of the universe.” --Dwight Garner, The New York Times From one of the titans of twentieth-century literature, collected here for the first time: a selection of his journalism from the late 1940s to the mid-1980s--work that he considered even more important to his legacy than his universally acclaimed works of fiction. "I don't want to be remembered for One Hundred Years of Solitude or for the Nobel Prize but rather for my journalism," Gabriel García Márquez said in the final years of his life. And while some of his journalistic writings have been made available over the years, this is the first volume to gather a representative selection from across the first four decades of his career--years during which he worked as a full-time, often muckraking, and controversial journalist, even as he penned the fiction that would bring him the Nobel Prize in 1982. Here are the first pieces he wrote while working for newspapers in the coastal Colombian cities of Cartagena and Barranquilla . . . his longer, more fictionlike reportage from Paris and Rome . . . his monthly columns for Spain's El País. And while all the work points in style, wit, depth, and passion to his fiction, these fifty pieces are, more than anything, a revelation of the writer working at the profession he believed to be "the best in the world."
