Book excerpt: It's a perfect beach day, or so thought the family, young couple, a few tourists, and a refugee who all end up in the same secluded, idyllic cove filled with rock pools and sandy shore, encircled by green, densely vegetated cliffs. But this utopia hides a dark secret. First there is the dead body of a woman found floating in the crystal-clear water. Then there is the odd fact that all the children are aging rapidly. Soon everybody is growing older--every half hour--and there doesn't seem to be any way out of the cove. Levy's dramatic storytelling works seamlessly with Peeters's sinister art to create a profoundly disturbing and fantastical mystery. Praise for Sandcastle "Begins like a murder mystery, continues like an episode of The Twilight Zone, and finishes with a kind of existentialism that wouldn't be out of place in a Von Trier film." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "Sandcastle is a fast 112-page read you won't be able to put down." --Cleveland.com "Peeters and L vy convey some profound, if profoundly unsubtle, truths about the human condition. Weighty stuff, expertly told." --The Comics Bulletin

Book excerpt: Earth is a small blue world in a solar system barely hanging on to the edge of a galaxy between 200 and 400 billion stars. The race of beings that inhabit this world, the more ancient and evolved races of the galaxy consider to be quite primitive. They are isolated, still absorbed in themselves, and alone in their view of the universe. That was how their world was supposed to stay...until one of the most war-driven race s of the galaxy discovers a rare resource on this tiny, backwater planet, and they want it. Duke Ross is unusual for a brash young fighter pilot. Underneath the head strong and cocky exterior is the heart of a family man who loves his wife and child, and enjoys the peace presented by an unusual, non-aggressive martial art. As hostile invaders from the stars tear his world out from under him, Duke finds himself becoming the chosen champion of alien beings that wish to defend the Earth, and restore its rightful peace in the galaxy. They bestow upon him a secret which can unlock an unimaginable power, and grant the Earth and humanity it's salvation. But the journey to the mythical Air Force base in the Nevada desert, known to pilots as "Dreamland," will be long and dangerous for a pilot without wings... Accompanied by his faithful wingman, an incorrigible ex-girlfriend turned reporter, and a few other skilled allies, Duke must complete a sojourn across a devastated American landscape. They must fight their way past and elude a very persistent alien general, who has made it his mission to capture Duke and the technology he holds. But not even Duke knows the full extent of the secret power he carries, or what will be revealed when he reaches his goal. And in the shadows an even more sinister and ancient power plots the downfall of much more than just the tiny island fortress known as "Earth".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era that has reclaimed many aspects of the feminine, Margaret Starbird’s The Woman with the Alabaster Jar stands out as a courageous exploration of the scorned feminine in the Western religious tradition. But espousing the marriage between Jesus and Mary Magdalene created a personal crisis for this Catholic scholar. In The Goddess in the Gospels the author tells how she was guided in her ever-deepening study of the New Testament and the gematria--number coding of the Greek alphabet--by an incredible series of synchronicities that mirror the inner and outer worlds and which reveal the Sacred Marriage of male and female--the hieros gamous--leading to her own personal redemption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the daylight hours: sun and fun, sandy beaches, laughing children, and sparkling waters that seem to merge with the cloudless sky above. But at night, in the darkness, at the stroke of midnight, things change. Sand castles crumble and the seashore shifts slightly beneath your bare feet, belying the things that lurk, buried there, out of sight. A full moon looms over a dark and dangerous sea, and a midnight tide can bring forth horrors that one could scarcely imagine… Ronald Kelly, the Master of Southern Horror, presents three original novelettes of seaside terror that might give you second thoughts about taking a trip to the beach… - A handicapped man must fight an earthbound demon for possession of his only son in a hellish cave on the shores of the Alabama gulf.- A vacationing family discovers that the Coral Sea of Australia possesses forgotten treasure in its depths… treasure guarded by a legion of creatures that will hungrily keep it in its clutches, at any cost.- A nurse finds that a rash of disappearances along the Florida coast, as well as a gruesome souvenir washed up by a nocturnal tide, points toward a mysterious stranger with a tragic past.

Download or read book Picasso's Lovers written by Jeanne Mackin and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tangled and vivid portrait of the women caught in Picasso’s charismatic orbit through the affairs, the scandals, and the art—only this time, they hold the brush. The women of Picasso’s life are glamorous and elusive, existing in the shadow of his fame—until 1950s aspiring journalist Alana Olson determines to bring one into the light. Unsure of what to expect but bent on uncovering what really lies beneath the canvas, Alana steps into Sara Murphy’s well-guarded home to discover a past complicated by secrets and intrigue. Sara paints a luxurious picture of the French Riviera in 1923, but also a tragic one. The more Sara reveals, the more cracks emerge in Picasso’s once-vibrant social circle—and the more Alana feels a disturbing convergence with her own life. Who are these other muses? What became of them? What will become of her? Desperate to trace the threads, Alana dives into the glittering lives of the past. But to do so she must contend with her own reality, including a strained engagement, the male-dominated world of art journalism, and the rising threat to civil rights in America. With hard truths peeling apart around her, it turns out that the most extraordinary portrait Alana encounters is her own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Think of nature and you’re likely to picture a forest, not a freeway. But how natural is nature really? We live in a world of constructed wildlife reserves, rainbow tulips, designer babies and cultured meat. We control a tomato’s biology so precisely, you can hardly call it natural anymore. Meanwhile, our grip on the Internet and the financial markets has grown so slight that they’re coming to resemble forces of nature. Using countless well-known examples and scientific insights, Koert van Mensvoort shows how a technosphere is evolving on top of a biosphere billions of years old. He’ll take you on an epic journey full of businesses that breathe, woods that smell like shampoo, and creatures that live on plastic. Along the way, a totally new view of the natural world will unfurl – one that’s not only more realistic but infinitely more creative, exciting and beautiful. To cope with the immense challenges facing the world today, we need to go forward, not back, to nature.
