Book excerpt: An ordinary girl. Four dragons tied to her by an ancient destiny. And a world to save. I thought a lot about death. My death. I got used to the idea of dying. I always imagined it'd be peaceful, with slow-motion scenes and a nice background melody... like in a movie. But I was wrong. I was lost in the eerie quiet. It was cold and dark. My hair floated lightly in the air. No, not in the air, but in the water. Water surrounded me from every side. Frozen water that seemed to burn in my lungs. I was drowning and couldn't breathe. I tried to swim. Desperately, I kicked my legs and waved my hands, but I wasn't able to reach the surface. I felt all my energies slowly leave me. It was too dark, and I was tired, but I didn't want to give up. I didn't want to die. I tried to push harder with my feet, hoping to feel something solid underneath me, but there was nothing but the fluctuating light and darkness. It swallowed me and I didn't know what to do. I had always been afraid of two things in my life, water and darkness, so I wondered how the hell I had ended up here. My head was spinning due to the lack of oxygen. I kept fighting, but every cell in my body screamed to let it go. I had to breathe, so I opened my mouth and inhaled strongly. Water came into my lungs, but it had stopped hurting. I no longer felt anything when my body became numb and the darkness devoured me. And then I woke up with a start. My name is Emma and I'm just trying to get by. Between keeping up with my studies, working two jobs, and caring for my ailing father, it's all I can do to make it through a day. It'd be a lot easier if the Drakons hadn't come into my life and turned it upside down. Sometimes I think their mission is to make me miserable. And yet, no matter what they do, I can't shake the feeling there's something different about them. The Drakon brothers are unlike anyone I've ever known, and I'm about to find out why. Flames of Truth is the first book in The Lost Fae series, a paranormal reverse harem series intended for audiences eighteen and over. Oh, did I mention it features hot dragon shifters?

Download or read book Through the Flames written by Allan Lokos and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After miraculously surviving a plane crash in Myanmar, Allan Lokos shares what his long and painful recovery process is teaching him about humanity’s ability to survive—and even thrive—in the face of suffering. In Through the Flames, Allan Lokos tells the terrifying story of being on board a plane on Christmas Day with his wife, Susanna, when it crashed and exploded in flames. Lokos was severely burned in the accident, and in the days and weeks following the crash, Susanna was told by the many doctors who examined Lokos that he would not survive. As founder and guiding teacher of the Community Meditation Center in New York City, Lokos had spent decades cultivating compassion and non-attachment. Since the plane crash, his Buddhist practice has been mightily tested. In this inspiring account of his against-all-odds recovery, Lokos uses his experience as a window through which to examine the challenge of human suffering in general and addresses the question of how we can thrive in the midst of pain and uncertainty.
Download or read book Out of the Flames written by Lawrence Goldstone and published by Crown. This book was released on 2008-12-10 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Out of the Flames is an extraordinary story - providing testament to the power of ideas, the enduring legacy of books, and the triumph of individual courage. Out of the Flames tracks the history of The Chrisitianismi Restituto, examining Michael Servetus's life and times and the politics of the first information during the sixteenth century. The Chrisitianismi Restituto, a heretical work of biblical scholarship, written in 1553, aimed to refute the orthodox Christianity that Michael Servetus' old colleague, John Calvin, supported. After the book spread through the ranks of Protestant hierarchy, Servetus was tried and agonizingly burned at the stake, the last known copy of the Restitutio chained to his leg. Servetus's execution marked a turning point in the quest for freedom of expression, due largely to the development of the printing press and the proliferation of books in Renaissance Europe. Three copies of the Restitutio managed to survive the burning, despite every effort on the part of his enemies to destroy them. As a result, the book became almost a surrogate for its author, going into hiding and relying on covert distribution until it could be read freely, centuries later. Lawrence and Nancy Goldstone follow the clandestine journey of the three copies through the subsequent centuries and explore its author's legacy and influence over the thinkers that shared his spirit and genius, such as Leibniz, Voltaire, Rousseau, Jefferson, Clarence Dorrow, and William Osler.

Download or read book Witness to the Truth written by John Henry Scott and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational saga of one man's fight to enfranchise his community Witness to the Truth tells the extraordinary life story of a grassroots human rights leader and his courageous campaign to win the right to vote for the African Americans of Lake Providence, Louisiana. Born in 1901 in a small, almost all-black parish, John H. Scott grew up in a community where black businesses, schools, and neighborhoods thrived in isolation from the white population. The settlement appeared self-sufficient and independent—but all was not as it seemed. From Reconstruction until the 1960s, African Americans still were not allowed to register and vote. Scott, a minister and farmer, proceeded to redress this inequality. Ultimately convincing Attorney General Robert Kennedy to participate in his crusade, Scott led a twenty-five year struggle that graphically illustrates how persistent efforts by local citizens translated into a national movement. Told in Scott's own words, Witness to the Truth recounts the complex tyranny of southern race relations in Louisiana. Raised by grandparents who lived during slavery, Scott grew up learning about the horrors of that institution, and he himself experienced the injustices of Jim Crow laws. Without bitterness or anger, he chronicles almost one hundred years of life in the parish, including migrations between the two world wars, the displacement of African American farmers during the New Deal, and the shocking methods white southerners used to keep African Americans under economic domination and away from the polls. Chapter president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for more than thirty years and a recipient of the A. P. Tureaud Citizens Award, Scott embodied the persistence, strength, and raw courage required of African American leaders in the rural South, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s. His story illustrates the contributions of local NAACP leaders in advancing the human rights movement. Cleo Scott Brown, Scott's daughter, draws on oral history interviews with her father conducted by historian Joseph Logsdon as the basis for the book. She also uses personal papers, court transcripts, records of the East Carroll chapter of the NAACP, interviews with other East Carroll residents, family recollections, and her own conversations with her father to complete the biography.

Download or read book When You Are Engulfed in Flames written by David Sedaris and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2008-06-03 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "David Sedaris's ability to transform the mortification of everyday life into wildly entertaining art," (The Christian Science Monitor) is elevated to wilder and more entertaining heights than ever in this remarkable new book. Trying to make coffee when the water is shut off, David considers using the water in a vase of flowers and his chain of associations takes him from the French countryside to a hilariously uncomfortable memory of buying drugs in a mobile home in rural North Carolina. In essay after essay, Sedaris proceeds from bizarre conundrums of daily life-having a lozenge fall from your mouth into the lap of a fellow passenger on a plane or armoring the windows with LP covers to protect the house from neurotic songbirds-to the most deeply resonant human truths. Culminating in a brilliant account of his venture to Tokyo in order to quit smoking, David Sedaris's sixth essay collection is a new masterpiece of comic writing from "a writer worth treasuring" (Seattle Times). Praise for When You Are Engulfed in Flames: "Older, wiser, smarter and meaner, Sedaris...defies the odds once again by delivering an intelligent take on the banalities of an absurd life." --Kirkus Reviews This latest collection proves that not only does Sedaris still have it, but he's also getting better....Sedaris's best stuff will still--after all this time--move, surprise, and entertain." --Booklist Table of Contents: It's Catching Keeping Up The Understudy This Old House Buddy, Can You Spare a Tie?

Book excerpt: Before the Truth: Book 1 of the Burden of the Innocent Rose Series By: Mackenzie Childs Sometimes, you’re introduced to evil too early on in life, ripping your innocence and childhood away in an instant, forcing you to grow up too fast. True knows this all too well from the twisted past of his family, which led to his planned dark demise. Stuck living alone in a rotting apartment on the outskirts of New York City with nothing but his cigarettes, pistol, and thoughts, True’s fallen into evil’s plan for him perfectly. He’s living the same day over and over again, letting anything happen to him with no care of what the outcome will be. In spite of the fact that True is a lone wolf walking through life carelessly, he catches the attention of a few caring people in the same boat as him, and with the help of a next-door neighbor and his young daughter, True soon finds himself pulled back towards the light with a second chance to start over, the right way … or so he thought. Once exposed to the light, True realizes how comfortable he’s let himself become with the darkness and feels alienated around “normal” society, leading him to become trapped in his own mind, yearning for the comfort of something familiar. Eventually, something from the darkness within him hears this call and snaps. Now, True, has to face the repercussions of his past’s twisted secrets being uncovered by the light and learn how to live with something wanting to take his place. Pushing past his abnormal secret, True rebuilds his life from the ground up, establishing Underworld Agency to help fix a broken society filled with money-hungry Elites that once held him-and so many of society’s lower-class citizens-down. Finally, True believes he’s found his purpose for this confusing life. When a new threat arises, one much bigger than anyone anticipated, and challenges his Agency’s motives, True realizes he’s stepped into a battle lined with dirty tricks and secrets. And though True and the Agency do their best to stay out of the way of this new person of power, they realize his intentions are targeted directly onto them with no exceptions. With the Agency’s original goals to overthrow the Elite society hindered by the influence of outside power, they now have to decide what they will choose to do to save the city-regardless of what it takes from them.
