Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This acclaimed post-apocalyptic novel of hope and terror from an award-winning author "pairs well with 1984 or The Handmaid's Tale" and includes a foreword by N. K. Jemisin (John Green, New York Times). When global climate change and economic crises lead to social chaos in the early 2020s, California becomes full of dangers, from pervasive water shortage to masses of vagabonds who will do anything to live to see another day. Fifteen-year-old Lauren Olamina lives inside a gated community with her preacher father, family, and neighbors, sheltered from the surrounding anarchy. In a society where any vulnerability is a risk, she suffers from hyperempathy, a debilitating sensitivity to others' emotions. Precocious and clear-eyed, Lauren must make her voice heard in order to protect her loved ones from the imminent disasters her small community stubbornly ignores. But what begins as a fight for survival soon leads to something much more: the birth of a new faith . . . and a startling vision of human destiny.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A murder on the unforgiving Icelandic coast unearths a dark past in this thriller by the acclaimed author of Last Rituals. Attorney and single mother Thóra Gudmundsdóttir is on the west coast of Iceland, where a client named Jonas is turning an old farm into a New Age spa. In this ruggedly beautiful region of lore and superstition, Thóra has no patience for local tales of hauntings. But some horrors are all too real—as when a young woman is brutally murdered, and Jonas becomes the chief suspect. As Thóra digs deep into the farm's past, discovering long-buried secrets, her once-solid view of reality begins to waver. Could the farm truly be haunted? And more importantly, does its eerie past have some connection to the murder? When another body is discovered—looking very much like the first—Thóra is forced to put aside her doubts and confront a twisted killer.

Download or read book Parable of the Talents written by Octavia E. Butler and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parable of the Talents celebrates the classic Butlerian themes of alienation and transcendence, violence and spirituality, slavery and freedom, separation and community, to astonishing effect, in the shockingly familiar, broken world of 2032. Long awaited, Parable of the Talents is the continuation of the travails of Lauren Olamina, the heroine of 1994's Nebula-Prize finalist, bestselling Parable of the Sower. Parable of the Talents is told in the voice of Lauren Olamina's daughter&...from whom she has been separated for most of the girl's life&...with sections in the form of Lauren's journal. Against a background of a war-torn continent, and with a far-right religious crusader in the office of the U.S. presidency, this is a book about a society whose very fabric has been torn asunder, and where the basic physical and emotional needs of people seem almost impossible to meet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a decade the Sower's Seeds books have been a wonderful resource for teachers, preachers, and anyone who has to speak in front of an audience. Now author Brian Cavanaugh has revised and expanded his original volume--with twenty new stories--for old fans as well as a whole new audience. He includes stories of inspiration, warmth, and insight arranged around numerous universal themes ranging from awareness, compassion, perseverance, and wisdom, to such unusual themes as baseball, Thomas Edison, hospitality, and risk-taking. While the majority of stories are anonymous, there are some attributed to well known names like Zig Ziglar, Mickey Mantle, and Theodore Roosevelt. Years before there was Chicken Soup, Sower's Seeds was making readers laugh, cry, and come away with a warm heart. The newest book--like the others in the series--is ideal both for quiet inspiration and for handy, on-the-run fun. This is storytelling at its best.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "River Mist and Other Stories" is a collection of short fiction by Kunikida Doppo, a prominent writer of Japan’s Meiji era. The anthology reflects Doppo’s blend of romanticism and realism, exploring themes like personal failure, nostalgia, nature, and inner struggle. The title story, River Mist (Kawagiri), follows Ueda Toyokichi, a man who leaves his hometown with high hopes but returns after 20 years, defeated by life’s hardships. Doppo’s vivid descriptions of the mist-covered riverbanks capture both the beauty of nature and the melancholy of unfulfilled dreams. Through this and other stories, Doppo expresses his fascination with human vulnerability, often influenced by English romantic poets like Wordsworth. The collection showcases Doppo’s talent for introspective storytelling with moments of subtle humor, tragic endings, and philosophical reflection, revealing the author’s own personal trials and emotional evolution. 1 River Mist 2 Old Gen 3 The Bonfire 4 The Deer Hunt 5 Those Unforgettable People 6 The Stars 7 Third Party 8 Woman Trouble 9 Poetic Images The white cloud over the hill The two travelers Barren ground The wayside plum 10 Phantoms 11 Musashino 12 The Self-Made Man 13 Letter From Yugahara 14 Bird Of Spring 15 Meat And Potatoes
