We hide in shadows. Our planet is lost. We are the last humans, and we must go home. Two thousand years ago, aliens destroyed Earth. Our fleets shattered. Billions died. The last humans fled a burning planet, heading to the stars. Today we are still refugees. Hungry. Afraid. Our enemies hunt us everywhere. So we hide. On distant asteroids. In rundown space stations. In deep caves on frozen worlds. And we dream. Of green hills. Blue skies. Golden fields. We dream of Earth. And for the first time, we have hope. A few of us, just a handful of brave souls, form the Heirs of Earth. We are humans who stand tall. Who fight back. Aliens call us terrorists. The humans we save call us heroes.

Os textos que aqui apresento foram escritos entre 2012 e 2016. São recortes de um tempo desértico em minha vida. Tempo em que oscilei entre a angustiante ânsia por empreender coisas e o desespero de me encontrar presa ao passado, como quando ainda não rompemos com a corrente que nos prende próximos à gaiola. Ao finalizar este livro, me encontro grávida. Exatamente de 34 semanas, ou seja, daqui alguns dias entro no 9° mês. Não há nada mais simbólico para mim: quando dou à luz ao futuro e quando me percebo recém-nascida.Aqui, contos de deserto, enquanto espero a chegada de um tempo que não se conta nos dedos ou nos ponteiros de um relógio. Antes, são observações do mundo, algumas vezes sem julgamento, em outras, escrutinados por olhos esfomeados. Algumas personagens me representam, outras são inspirações que encontrei no caminho, mas incorporo em todas, como que usando seus corpos, seus sentidos, seus pensamentos e sentimentos para expressar realidades diversas, realidades que não me cabe condenar ou absolver, apenas considerar.

Smashing a birthday cake into her brother's face without touching it- that's how 14-year-old Abby Woods discovers she has telekinesis. She is soon visited by a woman who invites her to the Isle of Peritia for the summer; a place where people who have other kinetic and paranormal gifts learn how to strengthen and control their mind. Once on the island, Abby is labeled as a Newlie (someone who is the first in their family to have abilities) which is somewhat rare. Even more astonishing is the fact that she has more than one, which she should not since she is a Newlie. This causes her to question why she is so special. She can pick up heavy furniture with her mind when she shouldn't be able to pick up more than a golf ball at this stage of training. And she can make an entire lake freeze solid when she should only be able to freeze a glass of water. The creator of the island and head of the school, Asher Dae, gives her lessons to help deal with the extra abilities and tame the strength they come with. As Abby continues to search for a reason why her mind is so strong, she learns of Asher's twin brother, Vago, who is wanted for murder. She soon finds out that she is The Kinetic Keeper, a child foretold of having gifts never before witnessed. And because of this, Vago is coming after her, to have her abilities for his own.

When the right dom is all wrong! Even in a BDSM universe, where everyone is bisexual and identifies as dom or sub, finding the right partner isn't always easy. Matt is a big star on the hit TV show, Collar Crime, and he's looking for a dom who ticks all the right boxes, including being as tidy and organised as himself. That definitely isn't his chaotic co-star, Rick, with his spanking fetish and habit of tying a different sub to his bed every night. When Matt meets the perfect dom he's swept off his feet, but he soon discovers that being pursued by a handsome, controlling billionaire isn't the erotic fantasy he'd imagined. Maybe the right dom for him is the one he thought was all wrong...

DO YOU WANT YOUR CHILDREN TO SUCCEED? I have three children who are still in school, and like you, I also want my children to succeed in life. Our children's success is what inspired me to write this book. Research shows that the more vocabulary words an elementary student knows, the more likely he or she is to do well in middle and high school. Research also shows that there is a direct link between a student's vocabulary and their reading comprehension skills. Consequently, the more words elementary school students learn, the better readers they will be, and the more likely they will be good students in high school and successful as adults. I became concerned when my daughter began to show difficulty with reading comprehension. Her biggest problem appeared to be not knowing the meaning of many important words in her reading material. In speaking with my daughter's teacher I was shocked and disturbed to learn that with the new Common Core requirements, teachers don't have the time to teach the definitions of words like they used to. Instead, they are forced to concentrate on spelling and teaching a limited number of definitions. So I began to look for a way that parents can help their children learn the definitions of words so that reading is fun . 4th Grade Vocabulary Building Crossword Puzzles is the result.

It has been estimated that 3.7 million people in America are living with an undiagnosed heart condition. I lost my Dad suddenly to undiagnosed heart disease in 2007. I always think about what he could have done differently to change the outcome. I became a health coach in 2015 so that I could prevent other people from experiencing the same traumatic loss. I created this book with the hope that I could save or extend the life of at least one person who may also have undiagnosed heart disease or other diseases brought on by an unhealthy lifestyle. Everyone knows that a healthy diet and exercise will improve their health, but many don't know where to start or what to do. Blue Collar Health contains simple preventative measures; nutrition tips; simple ways to increase physical activity; and stress management techniques. At the end of the book, there are two 20-week improved health/weight loss guides. Please consult your physician before beginning this or any other health program.
President Hilda Rodman, the 44th president of the United States, concluded her "Peace In The Middle East" speech to a Joint Session of Congress and stood basking in the glow of a prolonged standing ovation. I won, she gloated. ... As if on cue, a member of Rodman's security detail approached. "Madam President, Secretary Alexander has been trying to reach you." General Donald O'Neil, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, caught up with Rodman and Sarah Bloomberg, "Madam President," he said softly, "I've received a very troubling report concerning an al-Qaeda video broadcasted at 2 p.m. My staff considers the threat valid. Secretary Alexander is at Kirtland Air Force Base, and we think a nuclear attack is imminent. "... Still carping about Alexander, Bloomberg walked beside Rodman toward the presidential limousine. "That fool has the military taking the terrorists seriously." President Rodman laughed. She was about to reply when a brilliant, white light, many times brighter than the sun, appeared directly in front of her. The atomic detonation destroys America's central government. Can America survive? The answer is the story told in books 2 through 6 of the series. Behold, an Ashen Horse is the story of survival and retribution. Usama bin Laden spent years setting up his final operation against the Great Satan, Allah's Rings. It would be his last and most audacious terrorist attack, detonating five atomic devices in five American cities. President Bush's response to bin Laden's 9/11 attacks disrupted the operation and became dormant. An Iranian Ayatollah obtained control of the operation and waited for the ideal time to activate it-a plan to bring the Great Satan to its knees and establish the Islamic Empire, the Caliphate. When the ayatollah learned Rodman would address a Joint Session of Congress, he activated the operation and set the detonation time when he expected Rodman to be outside the Capitol building with the top tier of the U.S. government. Behold, an Ashen Horse is the second book of an alternative history series based on the assumption one or more historical events happened differently. Hilda Rodman defeated George Bush and became the 44th president.

Sometimes a little heat is all it takes to lighten a heavy heart. Shannon Daniels is afraid of men, but when Matthew Ellis literally falls into her lap, fear is the last thing she feels. For the first time in years, she desires a man, and she plans on taking advantage of her new craving. Shannon hatches a plan to satisfy her sudden hunger, but dancing with the devil will get you more than a one-way trip to hell, and Shannon finds out quickly that even the best-laid plans go awry. Matthew Ellis swears he will never get caught in the tangled web of a woman. After a devastating heartbreak, he's determined to die a bachelor. When he meets Shannon, a chubby redhead with a firecracker personality, he decides to add her to his list of conquests. The good news is she's okay with a hot and heavy fling. The bad news is, for the first time since he was a teenager, being caught doesn't seem that unappealing.
"Jimmie John Hall wasn't anything until he was a killer, and Betty Dienhardt wasn't anything until she met Jimmie John Hall. When they get together, sparks fly and bullets follow. The first to go are Betty's parents, but Betty isn't bothered. She only wants to be with her man - the first person to ever make her feel special."They set off on a cross-country spree, killing for gas money and food, killing to swap their car for one the police aren't looking for. As the dragnet draws tighter, they only grow closer, riding a road that leads to death because death has surrounded them all the time."That's the copy on Dreamscape Audio's excellent audiobook, expertly narrated by Alan Sklar, and I'd be hard put to improve on it. It's worth noting, though, that the novel derives from and was inspired by the real-life (and real death) rampage of Charles Starkweather and Caryl Fugate in 1950s Nebraska; the novel itself is set fifteen years later, and does not attempt a literal reconstruction of the original case.It's a powerful work of fiction, a penetrating look at two disturbed and disturbing individuals, and a breakneck tear across the American Midwest. Like Such Men Are Dangerous and The Triumph of Evil, it was originally published under LB's Paul Kavanagh pen name, but as soon as he could he resides all three books under his own name, and is pleased to make them available now in the Classic Crime Library. THE CLASSIC CRIME LIBRARY brings together Lawrence Block's early crime novels, reformatted and with new uniform cover art.
