Download or read book Oil! written by Upton Sinclair and published by . This book was released on 1927 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First edition of Sinclair's savage satire, loosely based on the life and career of Edward L. Doheny, and the Teapot Dome scandal of the Harding administration. Although Sinclair's famous novel The Jungle deals with Chicago's meatpacking industry, he moved west to Pasadena in 1916 and began writing novels set in California, the best of which was Oil!, the story of the education of Bunny Ross, son of wildcat oil man Joe Ross after oil is discovered outside Los Angeles. The novel was the basis for Paul Thomas Anderson's 2007 film There Will Be Blood. In California Classics, Lawrence Clark Powell called Oil! "Sinclair's most sustained and best writing."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law & Order meets Men in Black in this graphic novel adaptation of an unproduced TV pilot script by the author of A Game of Thrones—a never-before-seen story brought to life for the first time! SECOND CITY. FIRST CONTACT. Ten years ago, representatives from an interstellar collective of 314 alien species landed on Earth, inviting us to become number 315. Now, after seemingly endless delays, the Starport in Chicago is operational, a destination for diplomats, merchants, and tourists alike. Inside, visitors are governed by intergalactic treaty. Outside, the streets belong to Chicago’s finest. Charlie Baker, newly promoted to the squad that oversees the Starport district, is eager to put to practical use his enthusiasm for all things extraterrestrial; he just never expected to arrive on his first day in the back of a police cruiser. Lieutenant Bobbi Kelleher is married to the job, which often puts her in conflict with Lyhanne Nhar-Lys, security champion of Starport and one of the galaxy’s fiercest warriors. Undercover with a gang of anti-alien extremists, Detective Aaron Stein has no problem mixing business with pleasure—until he stumbles upon evidence of a plot to assassinate a controversial trade envoy with a cache of stolen ray guns. Now the Chicago PD must stop these nutjobs before they piss off the entire universe. Based on a TV pilot script written by George R. R. Martin in 1994 and adapted and illustrated by Hugo Award–nominated artist Raya Golden, this bold and brilliant graphic novel adaptation at last brings Martin’s singular vision to rollicking life. With all the intrigue, ingenuity, and atmosphere that made A Game of Thrones a worldwide phenomenon, Starport launches a new chapter in the career of a sci-fi/fantasy superstar.

All she had to was pay back taxes on the old family house and it was hers to keep. So she did. But she didn't know about the other occupant that never left, not until it was much too late. Piper Williams is barely keeping her larder stocked, and is way behind on the rent when for the price of the back taxes she can claim a house that has been in her family for generations past. Seeing it as a solution to her financial woes and an opportunity to be left alone to work in peace Piper empties what is left of her bank account and moves in. Yet old places need work and everything is on the fritz. But 'old' doesn't account for the face that sometimes appears in the window. And old doesn't account for that stain that keeps returning on the rug. And 'old' doesn't account for the old armoire that holds an ancient cloak that is only sometimes dry. When events turn hellishly evil and Piper finds herself in the battle of her life, can she find a way to put the house to rest or like all her passed before her, will she be destroyed and bound to the house forever?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to old English manor houses, there are always rumours about them being haunted, but no one believes it. Especially when they are eagerly buying one for a song. But perhaps that's a big mistake? The old manor seemed the perfect place for a bed and breakfast, and Alison put all of her money into it, determined to make a go of it. But from the start, something wasn't quite right. The locals didn't want to work for her, and the rumours of odd happenings were disturbing. Then, when items went missing, and were later found in odd places, Alison rationalised - ghosts didn't exist, did they? But there was no making sense of the rows of keys that kept appearing, always in the same place, and never where she'd left them. When a knife sliced her boyfriend chef's hand, and their friend was tipped off a ladder and injured, whilst alone in a room, Alison began to get really nervous. But she couldn't give up - could she? Then the kitchen was trashed, and the knives and pokers came flying at her, and she barely escaped alive. It was time to admit that there was a problem - a very deadly problem. Can Alison fix whatever ails Blakely Manor before someone gets killed? Or is it too late already?
