Download or read book The Chosen One written by Rick Hall and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to his death, legendary vampire hunter, Abraham Van Helsing, began the establishment of three unique academies to train vampire hunters. He never lived to see them completed. With his dying breath, Van Helsing uttered a prophecy that stated that one day a student would arise from one of the academies and this student would be the greatest vampire hunter of them all. To date, that prophecy has yet to be fulfilled. Ethan, a small, timid, and clumsy orphan, is seen by many of his instructors as the worst student ever to be trained by any of the academies. Few expect him live long enough to graduate let alone enter the trade. This all changes when he is the sole survivor of a group of vampire hunters that are ambushed by a vampire prince and his nest. The fact that the youth manages to survive the massacre is nothing short of a miracle. Alan Spangler is the head physician of the Van Helsing academy located at Lexington, Kentucky. After he and a group of physicians interview and observe the youth, he becomes convinced that the youth is the prophetic Chosen One and begins an investigation into the youth's background. As his investigation expands, Alan finds that there is more to the youth than meets the eye. Before the doctor can test his theory, Ethan and dozens of other hunters are sent on a suicide mission to destroy a vampire prince and his nest.

Book excerpt: This saga centers around the Chesapeake Bay and Mark Hopkins, a charismatic former SEAL, who juggles his family life with running a steel mill (Bethlehem Steel at Sparrows Point), leasing part of the land to a research institute for the study of nudity, and wheeling and dealing in art. After finding a Remington bronze in a thrift store, which is sold for a $450,000 profit, his steel mill is sabotaged by a millionaire to avenge the court martial of his corrupt son. Woven into the overtly-comic storyline are several protégés: a hair-stylist who's transformed into a TV astrological forecaster; a tech writer, into a cabaret singer; and a knuckleball pitcher, into a pro-baseball scout whose first discovery is a young Navajo catcher from Taos, NM. The action, suspense and pace are crafted to have you turning pages to see what happens next. Expect suggestive double-entendre one-liners to tickle your funnybone.

Book excerpt: The delightful, amusing, and deeply mysterious second novel to feature Vish Puri, a man after Hercule Poirot's heart, in a series that has already won diehard fans on three continents. The bizarre murder of an Indian scientist in public by the goddess Kali is no laughing matter.

Download or read book The Case of the Missing Servant written by Tarquin Hall and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Watch out Alexander McCall Smith! Here comes the first novel by the highly acclaimed writer Tarquin Hall in an entrancing new mystery series set in India. The portly Vish Puri is India’s most accomplished detective, at least in his own estimation, and is also the hero of an irresistible new mystery series set in hot, dusty Delhi. Puri’s detective skills are old-fashioned in a Sherlock Holmesian way and a little out of sync with the tempo of the modern city, but Puri is clever and his methods work. The Case of the Missing Servant shows Puri (“Chubby” to his friends) and his wonderfully nicknamed employees (among them, Handbrake, Flush, and Handcream) hired for two investigations. The first is into the background of a man surprisingly willing to wed a woman her father considers unmarriageable, and the second is into the disappearance six months earlier of a servant to a prominent Punjabi lawyer, a young woman known only as Mary. The Most Private Investigator novels offer a delicious combination of ingenious stories, brilliant writing, sharp wit, and a vivid, unsentimental picture of contemporary India. And from the first to the last page run an affectionate humour and intelligent insights into both the subtleties of Indian culture and the mysteries of human behaviour.
Download or read book Obesity Wars written by Saskia van Ryn and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the world turned its back on your best friend for being fat, would you turn your back on him too? At a time when the obesity problem is headlining at world health conventions, one small nation struggles to find solutions to the rising cost of healthcare. Campaigning on promises to clamp down on obesity, Shape Up – led by the charismatic William Tanner – claims a landslide victory. Honouring its campaign promises, laws targeting fat people are swiftly introduced. Government obesity squads – the GO squads - roam the streets in black vans with a license to enforce the laws by any means, whipping up violence towards fat people. Teenagers Monty and Levi have been best friends since kindergarten. Levi is smart, funny and loyal – he’s also obese. As the obesity laws become harsher and fat people increasingly disaffected, Monty begins to resent his friend, eventually disowning him. When Levi is brutally beaten by the neighbourhood bullies, Monty hardens himself to the injustice, blaming Levi for not doing more to lose weight. But when Levi disappears, Monty realises that something more sinister is at play. Recruited to an underground anti-government organisation, Monty seizes the opportunity to fight back in the hopes of finding his friend and restoring balance in a society gone mad.
