Louisa challenged him with her mercurial moods and yearnings for money and fame. The other prize she deeply coveted—her father's understanding—seemed hardest to win.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story begins the age before the beginning of anything, when everything was nothing; when there was no heaven or earth, time or space; there was no God as there was nothing to rule. It was the age when the Being called God was all alone but engorged with the Food He ate, the Food which consisted of both Evil and Good, of Light and Darkness. The SUPREME BEING exists all alone before the beginning but is engorged with Food which He eventually separates into beings, the Gods of Light, first of whom is named YO, through whom comes his betrothed, a she-man named EL-SHEKINAH, and zillions of other beings of light. The same Food separates into His faecal waste which becomes Death, through whom comes another set of beings, the Gods of Darkness, starting with LEVIATHAN, all of whom are today called demons, all of whom are later quartered in the large intestine of creation bathed in darkness called The EARTH, awaiting the day of their defecation, just like faeces that they are. El-Shekinah is given Earth to govern, indeed a betrothal period, but in matrices of cobwebs of events he becomes corrupt, a corruption instigated by the Gods of Darkness, a means by which they adopt him as their son. And in a huge dose of rage for being spited by Yo, El-Shekinah leads the very first war of Darkness against Light, which results into the destruction of the first Earth with its humans, animals and vegetation, which necessitates its recreation by Yo. And so the praxis that the Biblical Adam named ISHI in this story is not the first man recreated and is not the one made in the image and likeness of the Gods is then explored. This motif brews with the evidence that the White races are the first to be recreated; they are the ones made in the image and likeness of the Gods, attributes that are steeped in the ability to have everything in dominion; the capacity to create things that are both useful and lethal, and the propensity to multiply. They are created by Yo but humanized by the great two Gods - Yo the leader of Light and El-Shekinah, the evidence of which is seen today in the double helix of man’s DNA structure, being two serpents coiled upon a spine. Ishi, the Biblical Aadam, is then formed as a baby but humanized all alone by Yo who instructs him to be the one to teach true righteousness and true worship to the Whites, the rulers, so they can rule in righteous royalty. Ishi is given a she-man which is named ISHA, who is to be helpmeet to him and not a wife, but he eventually makes her his wife. El-Shekinah enters into a sexual union with Isha, while promising her a worldwide rulership, and the resultant pregnancy becomes the biblical Cain who is named ODACHI. Eventually Isha herself, in keeping to the mandate given her by El-Shekinah seduces Ishi into having sex with her in order to corrupt him and in order also to be a ruler sitting upon all men as she is promised by El-Shekinah. As an aftermath of sex with Isha, Ishi is made to hear the consequences of his action and is shown a vision in which he sees El-Shekinah emblazoned in the night sky with arms outstretched and two legs joined together, a quintessential Cross, which depicts sun and moon worship, the enigmatic symbol of false worship birthed in all religions, through which El-Shekinah deceives the whole world into false righteousness and false worship. During this exposition he is also made aware of the falsehood that shall descend upon man such as the baking of truth and falsehood as Scripture in all religions; people worshipping El-Shekinah thinking they are worshiping God in all religions, the virgin birth deception, the false Jerusalem and false Israel deception, the falsehood of one man being made to die for the sin of the whole world and so many others. The story then cascades to its end, with Yo allowing El-Shekinah the lordship of Earth from thence till the end when Darkness, just like Faeces becomes expelled, a certainty also made known to Ishi by one of the sons of God.
Book Synopsis Outcasts United by : Warren St. John
Download or read book Outcasts United written by Warren St. John and published by Random House. This book was released on 2009-04-21 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BONUS: This edition contains a reader's guide. The extraordinary tale of a refugee youth soccer team and the transformation of a small American town Clarkston, Georgia, was a typical Southern town until it was designated a refugee settlement center in the 1990s, becoming the first American home for scores of families in flight from the world’s war zones—from Liberia and Sudan to Iraq and Afghanistan. Suddenly Clarkston’s streets were filled with women wearing the hijab, the smells of cumin and curry, and kids of all colors playing soccer in any open space they could find. The town also became home to Luma Mufleh, an American-educated Jordanian woman who founded a youth soccer team to unify Clarkston’ s refugee children and keep them off the streets. These kids named themselves the Fugees. Set against the backdrop of an American town that without its consent had become a vast social experiment, Outcasts United follows a pivotal season in the life of the Fugees and their charismatic coach. Warren St. John documents the lives of a diverse group of young people as they miraculously coalesce into a band of brothers, while also drawing a fascinating portrait of a fading American town struggling to accommodate its new arrivals. At the center of the story is fiery Coach Luma, who relentlessly drives her players to success on the soccer field while holding together their lives—and the lives of their families—in the face of a series of daunting challenges. This fast-paced chronicle of a single season is a complex and inspiring tale of a small town becoming a global community—and an account of the ingenious and complicated ways we create a home in a changing world.
Book Synopsis A Worse Place Than Hell: How the Civil War Battle of Fredericksburg Changed a Nation by : John Matteson
Download or read book A Worse Place Than Hell: How the Civil War Battle of Fredericksburg Changed a Nation written by John Matteson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize–winning author John Matteson illuminates three harrowing months of the Civil War and their enduring legacy for America. December 1862 drove the United States toward a breaking point. The Battle of Fredericksburg shattered Union forces and Northern confidence. As Abraham Lincoln’s government threatened to fracture, this critical moment also tested five extraordinary individuals whose lives reflect the soul of a nation. The changes they underwent led to profound repercussions in the country’s law, literature, politics, and popular mythology. Taken together, their stories offer a striking restatement of what it means to be American. Guided by patriotism, driven by desire, all five moved toward singular destinies. A young Harvard intellectual steeped in courageous ideals, Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. confronted grave challenges to his concept of duty. The one-eyed army chaplain Arthur Fuller pitted his frail body against the evils of slavery. Walt Whitman, a gay Brooklyn poet condemned by the guardians of propriety, and Louisa May Alcott, a struggling writer seeking an authentic voice and her father’s admiration, tended soldiers’ wracked bodies as nurses. On the other side of the national schism, John Pelham, a West Point cadet from Alabama, achieved a unique excellence in artillery tactics as he served a doomed and misbegotten cause. A Worse Place Than Hell brings together the prodigious forces of war with the intimacy of individual lives. Matteson interweaves the historic and the personal in a work as beautiful as it is powerful.

Book excerpt: A female spy, an Eden monk, and a man with no memory must reveal a corrupt leader while keeping their hearts safe-an impossible task. Former stunt woman, Toni Reid, has adopted Eden as her new home. What's not to like with naked hunks walking around and women being worshipped by them? She doesn't mind the distraction of spying on one of the leaders of the Ruling Circle too much, but just as she discovers his secret, she's caught. Akasha is next in line to ascend to the Triad panel, those who determine which men are morally good enough to receive a portal chip. His connections to people have been minimal to keep his future judgements unbiased, but when he discovers Toni spying, he has no choice but to capture her and discover what she knows. Sandale is busy learning about who he was before his memory wipe. Traveling to Naralina to rescue Toni is a good excuse to meet his family and find himself again. He discovers Toni is more than a task, she is a force to be reckoned with, and his focus quickly shifts. Akasha and Sandale are soon embroiled in a plot that could well send Eden back into another world war over women. The only way to stop it is to work together with Toni, but working to stop a world war is easy when compared to laying siege to Toni's heart.

Book excerpt: On the alien, sunless planet they call Eden, the 532 members of the Family shelter beneath the light and warmth of the Forest’s lantern trees.

The Oldest among the Family recount legends of a world where light came from the sky, where men and women made boats that could cross the stars.

Already remarkably acclaimed in the UK, Dark Eden is science fiction as literature; part parable, part powerful coming-of-age story, set in a truly original alien world of dark, sinister beauty--rendered in prose that is at once strikingly simple and stunningly inventive.

Book excerpt: Roberta Prescott Reed is both her father's namesake and his nemesis, and has been diametrically opposed to everything her father stands for in his business practices at Reed Public Relations for as long as she can remember. From her first impulsive and very public stand against him chained to a tree in a mud-spattered old growth forest in Oregon, she has devoted her life to countering the disinformation her father and his firm, representing the most egregious and corrupt polluters on the planet, disseminates to discredit the environmental movement. After ten years on opposite sides of every environmental issue, his sudden death in 1994 turns her life upside down when she, his business partners and his clients, are shocked to learn that Robert Reed, in his Last Will and Testament, names her CEO of Reed Public Relations. With her friends by her side, brothers Evan and Steven Manning, and her best friend Summer Sparrow, a new generation of leaders takes the reins at RPR, a generation who possess a deep reverence for the tiny blue planet we call home and feel that environmental activism must be a top priority of every business. She makes it her mission to bring her father's clients, now her clients, into a 21st century mindset of true corporate environmental responsibility. Not only must she counter the attitudes of her father's generation, but she must match wits with her cousin David Reed, the acolyte and presumed heir apparent at the firm who seethes with anger and conspires against her leadership, and her explosive and passionate French lover, Michel Manon, an award-winning environmental photojournalist, who continually reminds Roberta of the suffering that nature endures at the hands of the companies she represents. In the final, dramatic conclusion on the beaches of the south of France amidst a catastrophic environmental disaster caused by one of her clients, she learns a bitter lesson as she is forced to come to grips with the evil her father has unleashed on the world. From the corridors of power in Washington, D.C to the sophisticated shores of the Cote d'Azur, The Outcasts of Eden is filled with complexity and unexpected surprises, and tells the moving and powerful story of the opposing forces of environmental activism and business, and the generational shift in thinking as the movement struggled to become accepted as an essential and expected part of doing business around the world.

Book excerpt: From the Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning Adrian Tchaikovsky, The Doors of Eden is an extraordinary feat of the imagination and a page-turning adventure about parallel universes and the monsters that they hide. They thought we were safe. They were wrong. Four years ago, two girls went looking for monsters on Bodmin Moor. Only one came back. Lee thought she'd lost Mal, but now she's miraculously returned. But what happened that day on the moors? And where has she been all this time? Mal's reappearance hasn't gone unnoticed by MI5 officers either, and Lee isn't the only one with questions. Julian Sabreur is investigating an attack on top physicist Kay Amal Khan. This leads Julian to clash with agents of an unknown power - and they may or may not be human. His only clue is grainy footage, showing a woman who supposedly died on Bodmin Moor. Dr Khan's research was theoretical; then she found cracks between our world and parallel Earths. Now these cracks are widening, revealing extraordinary creatures. And as the doors crash open, anything could come through. "Tchaikovsky weaves a masterful tale... a suspenseful joyride through the multiverse." (Booklist)
