The Gentle Stepper goes to the Holy Land, to fight a holy war, and of course she is only in it for the money, and to get away from the husband she deserted. She is Ju-Dan, the Living Saint, and yet not in any way a holy warrior. She is the Sword Maiden Princess, and yet not really royalty. Ju-Dan enters service to the Queen, and falls in love with the King, too bad he's only thirteen, and a leper. Ju-Dan, the Regina Imperator fights zealously, and that's before she's even given herself to the cause. When she comes to truly believe in the fight she's taken on, well by then her young King is dead of his disease, and the old Prince has taken on a young Queen. Is nothing going to go her way? Ju-Dan keeps fighting, and to her credit, she may just emerge victorious, if in need of some heavy stitches.

In fact, as her cynicism grows, she's ready to change everything in her life... and a man is the last thing she wants.When gorgeous bartender Jeremy wanders into her store, she's willing to reconsider what she wants right now, but he's off the menu-he's here for an engagement ring.But as Jeremy comes back again and again to look at the ring, Amber suspects it's not just the price that's keeping him from taking it home. She'd never dream of sabotaging someone's relationship, but is Jeremy about to make a huge mistake?

Footsteps in the attic. Toys that play by themselves. A dark presence in an upstairs room.Paranormal investigator Ellie Jordan faces a difficult new case. Her new clients are a family haunted by multiple ghosts and a poltergeist that wrecks their home at night. Their seven-year-old son's invisible friends may not be imaginary at all, but the restless spirits of dead children.To clear her clients' house of the dangerous entities, Ellie must unravel the mysterious deaths of another family who lived in the old mansion more than a hundred and sixty years ago-and she must do it before the ghosts can carry out their malevolent designs on her clients and their children.

The story is written in the first person as a series of journal entries. The narrator is a woman whose husband - a physician - has confined her to the upstairs bedroom of a house he has rented for the summer. She is forbidden from working and has to hide her journal entries from him so that she can recuperate from what he has diagnosed as a "temporary nervous depression - a slight hysterical tendency;" a diagnosis common to women in that period. The windows of the room are barred, and there is a gate across the top of the stairs, allowing her husband to control her access to the rest of the house.The story illustrates the effect of confinement on the narrator's mental health, and her descent into psychosis. With nothing to stimulate her, she becomes obsessed by the pattern and color of the room's wallpaper.

In this original work, the author (an abstract artist) demonstrates what he calls the 'many-folded forms' of artistic expression. Art cannot be outdone as a symbol both for variation and the transcendental. Art represents not just 'power' and 'motion, ' but arguably every type of genius. The author believes that genius can be taught, and introduces guidance on many aspects of aesthetics. Included are numerous illustrations showing how the categories of art theory are foundational for many aesthetic choices and techniques. The work is a propo in that it extends the functions and models available for the contemporary artist. This, the fifth volume of the encyclopedia is devoted to aesthetics out of a profound deference to its underlying importance in a wide variety of disciplines. In particular, it introduces a variety of techniques related to Hyper-Cubism, a form of art that the author calls 'the next iteration of Cubism'. It poses an exciting opportunity for the aesthetic connoisseur. It is perhaps the first concientious guide to modern art taking place during the very life of the movement.

A witty dialogue amongst diverse characters marks their spiritual progression as opposing elements square off in final confrontation.AVAILABLE IN BOOK / EBOOK.

The frontier West in America in the 1870s was rough, largely ruled by the gun. Survival sometimes demanded courage and a rawhide spirit. Cattle still grazed on empty range. Indians roamed free and often fought to preserve their way of life. The Llano Kid had been raised in Kentucky amongst his Cherokee kin before riding west into Texas, following the death of his Irish father and Cherokee mother. A half-breed, as folks often called Indians of mixed race, Llano is no pilgrim in this tough unfamiliar land, and not without his adversaries. Attempts to bully Llano only serve to prepare him with more of what he had learned from a savvy immigrant father. Intelligence is a common trait among the Cherokee. Bravery and good sense help Llano to survive where the cards are often stacked against him. Readers of all walks of life will enjoy following young Llano through the rugged Pecos hills to the parched desert sands of west Texas as he comes of age, carries his load, stands up to trouble, and earns the respect he comes to deserve. This is Llano's first adventure of seven frontier tales authored by PK Brown. Revised and reformatted.

You'll find this third volume in this series a valuable cross-reference manual to the music of the 1970's This capped off the period we call Classic Rock. The British Invasion had given way to American artists, but left an indelible impact on the face of music. The Beatles had released their final album in 1969 and would break up in 1970. A new wave of folk musicians joined the scene such as Harry Chapin, John Denver, James Taylor and Carole King. Disco overtook the charts and by 1974 was topping the charts. Disco started to fade by the end of the decade -- but what a decade it was!
