Rosie and Alex are destined for one another, and everyone but them seems to realize it. Rosie’s best friend since childhood, Alex never did live down the fact that he didn’t invite her to his all-boys 10th birthday party.

Where America Went Wrong, and How to Regain Her Democratic Ideals by John R. Talbott |
| DESCRIPTION: |
America has a problem. The world knows it. Most Americans feel it. What exactly is it? Where America Went Wrong exposes the problem and shows what we must do about it. The problem is that America over the last forty years or so has become increasingly more undemocratic. Our government is dominated by powerful special interests, especially corporate interests that have gained untrammeled dominance over American life. Not only are governmental questions important to average Americans not addressed, but in granting special favors to the wealthiest Americans and American corporations our government assures our free market economy can not operate fairly and properly. John R. Talbott demonstrates that greater direct democracy is the solution to what ails America, and also to what ails most of the developing world. As Al Smith observed, surely “…the ills of democracy can be cured by more democracy.” Here Mr. Talbott makes a powerful argument on behalf of the people that their system of governing has a fundamental flaw that prevents it from being responsive to the electorate. |

“I’d stand in line in the rain for one of ‘Stu’ Byrne’s stories,” said Gene Roddenberry. Find out why. Fans of Star Trek, Farscape, and Star Wars will love this classic series! Read the First Two Complete Star Man Novels for One Low Price? A space accident sends modern astronaut Steven Germaine to the Earth colony at Alpha Centauri in the 25th century. In “Supermen of Alpha” (Star Man adventure #1), Germaine is drawn into an undreamed of new life of adventure and cosmic intrigue. First, Germaine finds himself to be “property” of the insidious tycoon, Vincent Cardwell, who rescued him. But, soon he is caught up in the riptides of an interstellar revolution against a tyrannical Earth government, and a growing love for Cardwell’s beautiful “contract woman,” the mutant Anne. However, Vincent Cardwell has his own schemes for Germaine. There is a secret about the astronaut known only to Cardwell, a secret he plans to use as a hidden “ace” in his own game of empire. Meanwhile, Germaine faces the deadly challenge of the heavy-gravity planet Thulone. Somehow, he must find the will to determine his own destiny and overcome the world’s crushing gravity–or die centuries and light years away from Earth. If he fails, he knows he will never see Anne Cardwell again, and the galaxy will suffer in slavery for centuries to come! If he lives, Germaine will become one of the rare cross-overs who survive Thulone, one of the “Supermen of Alpha”–humanity’s one slim hope. In “Time Window” (Star Man adventure #2), Germaine escapes from an interstellar prison, to land in the secret stronghold of the Thulonian Independence Party (T.I.P.) on the jungle planet, Alpha Minor. Reluctantly, Germaine becomes involved with the rebels cause, never realizing he is destined to be the vital key to Man’s first interstellar revolution. On Alpha Minor, he makes remarkable new friends such as “Si” the human cyborg, and Paul Traynor, the mutant strongman. He also learns the awesome secret of Anne Cardwell, and of Cardwell’s hold over her. Planning to strike directly at the heart of the tyranny and use Traynor’s formidable paralysis weapon to take over Earth government, Germaine and his new friends must smuggle Traynor’s ship, “Night Song,” in among the cargo in an interstellar star-train. But, but they must risk discovery and act quickly, for Germaine’s own destiny and the fate of worlds is being narrowed down to an inescapable tine window.

The Seeds of Life: A Golden Age SF Classic by John Taine |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Is This the Book That Inspired “Flowers for Algernon” and the movie “Charlie”? Some sf historians think so. Here is the classic story of a main raised from subnormal to superman overnight! At first he plans to benefit human kind. But when the transformation proves temporary, he wonders if he should save humanity or expunge it from the face of the Earth. Seeds of Life is science fiction tragedy on the level of grand opera. It is also an enthralling hard science story with a very human heart, mixing such unlikely ingredients as a black widow spider, a two-million volt X-ray tube, chicken eggs which hatch out reptilian monsters, and other equally strange plot threads. When Dr. Andrew Crane of the Erickson Foundation tries to make a man of Neils Bork, his laboratory assistant, whose interest in bottled inspiration is his chief weakness, he succeeds in a spectacular manner. Bork himself contributes to the end result in his own drunken way, and there emerges Miguel De Soto, a superman in every sense of the word. His rate of thinking and perceiving has accelerated many thousand times beyond that of any human being who has ever lived. He is a partial, accidental anticipation of what humanity will become in the millenniums ahead. Seeds of Life is science fiction of a high order, a novel involving believable people in unusual situations, written in the smoothly entertaining style which characterized all of John Taine’s novels. No wonder Analog magazine (then Astounding) hailed the first edition of Seeds of Life as “top notch Taine” and praised the author for his “unique, memorable science mysteries, full of outrageously daring flights of the scientific imagination.” Analog critic P. Schuyler Miller wrote that “As in most of his books the theme is biological–the sources of life, and of the forces which mold life. An accident remakes the blundering alcoholic technician Neils Bork, into the mutant superman, Miguel de Soto, and at the same time sets in motion other processes which attract the attention of Bork’s employer, Andrew Crane, and the very competent Dr. Brown. “the author keeps several mysteries at the boiling point–what has happened to Bork, to the black widow spider, to Bertha the hen; what is the theory of evolution and devolution around which the whole book is built.” John Taine (1883-1960) was Eric Temple Bell, Professor of Mathematics at the California Institute of Technology. His sf novels were based on cutting edge science and experiments he learned first-hand from his the top scientists of his day. As Taine he was the author The Forbidden Garden, The Greatest Adventure, The Time Stream, The Iron Star, and other Golden Age sf classics. |

| DESCRIPTION: |
From the first moment he saw Diane, dancing in another man’s arms, Burt Carlisle knew she was the woman for him. The handsome and charismatic attorney swept the young and innocent Diane off her feet. After a fiery romance led to an unplanned pregnancy they married, settling into what seemed like the perfect life. Now it’s twenty years later. Their only child is in college, Burt’s career is at an all time high, and he’s still as deeply in love with his wife as ever. But he’s far from the model husband and after years of feeling second to Burt’s career, Diane has become restless. With the passage of time she not only lost her confidence, she lost her sense of self, her independence, and the ardent feelings that she once had for her husband. When Diane announces that she has to return to their hometown to take care of her elderly aunt, Burt is supportive. But when he hears that she’s taken a job there and that her old flame is in town, he suddenly realizes that he could very well lose the woman he adores unless he is willing to fight for her. Starting Over is a compelling story about a couple lucky enough to have found one another in their youth and smart enough to go in search of themselves as adults. As always, Barri Bryan does a fabulous job of capturing the love and the desire: the desire to rekindle faith in one’s self and the passion in one’s marriage, the desire to admit what’s gone wrong and to make changes, and the desire to simply commit to Starting Over. |

Running into Trouble: Four Novellas About Gay Men Who Run by Devon Rudolph |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Running into Trouble is a collection of four novellas about gay guys who run outside for exercise and the trouble they encounter along the way. The first story, “The Honeydipper,” is about a runner who lives in the inner city with his lover. They have been together for five years and have grown apart. And so, on their five-year anniversary, they move from the inner city, where they live close to the Gay life, to the more sedate suburbs where they think their relationship will have a better chance of surviving. Once settled into the suburbs, the next-door neighbor (a married man) complicates things. The second story, “The God Zeus,” is about a new neighbor the runner sees occasionally. From afar he becomes infatuated with this god-like man who likes to putter around his front yard in very little clothes. One day the neighbor materializes from out of the mirror and joins him. They proceed to make passionate love, thus fulfilling his long held fantasies of the man. The third story, “The Woodsman,” is about a runner who meets up with a handsome and seductive man dressed like a lumberjack. This man is not aware that he is being observed. He believes he is alone in these woods and begins to have subtle sex with himself. Eventually though, he does spot the runner and they have sex. The fourth story, “The Married Man,” is about a runner and his lover of ten years who have grown apart due to inattentiveness. They work different shifts and so they do not see that much of each other during the week. The runner finally meets a cyclist on one his running trails, and finds that he just can’t resist the temptation. He does not exactly feel as though he is cheating, since, he surmises, that what he would be giving away is nothing his lover wants anyway. But is this the jolt their relationship needs? Will it cause them to rediscover their love for each other and therefore enjoy a loving and passionate life together once more. |

Spiritual and Religious Journey by Shyam Mehta |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The author believes that a religious journey is not about finding God. It is about helping nice people to be happy.
You need to start with yourself: lead a normal life, sort out what you are going to be doing with your life, deal with all the issues that everyone needs to do, marry, have children and so forth.
As you gain experience and think things over quietly, over time you become ready to help people. You need in your life to develop strong ethical principles.
In contrast to this, what happens in practice? A nice young man or a nice young woman goes to a church, or goes to a temple, or becomes associated with some “ashram” and loses his or her way. He or she spends his or her life dreaming, chanting, wishing things were different and so forth. Someone who started with good intentions achieves nothing. Do you want advice from someone who spends his time chanting, rather than from someone who has been through life and experienced what ordinary people experience? What money or other tangible benefit can this person give you?
God created normal people so that they could lead normal lives. This is the religious journey. In this book, the author sets out all the information that he believes a normal nice person needs to proceed on this religious journey.

Quite Contrary by John F. Chabot |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The unusual thing about the collection QUITE CONTRARY is the range of subgenre. Although these are all crime stories, each is vastly different in its approach to the crime. One story, “A Step Above The Beasts,” borders on horror, following the actions of a highly ethical murderer. “Time, The Thief,” which is set in a piazza in Italy, shows the power of imagination, and comes dangerously close to being a romance. In several of the stories, notably “Five Points Of View,” who the bad guy is may come as a surprise or even remain a mystery. There is humor here and even a bit of parody, as in “Detour On Mean Street,” the dilemma of a hard-boiled PI caught up in a cozy. These stories have appeared in seven different publications. Two of them (“Quite Contrary” and “The Plot Thickens”) won contests and one (“Quite Contrary”) has since appeared in a mystery anthology printed in Japan. |

The Examined Life by Virgil Jose |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Gil Rodrigues, private eye, was in a tight spot. His close friend David Chang had been murdered, apparently in a botched carjacking attempt on a quiet street in a peaceful LA suburb, just doors from a Buddhist temple. But David’s daughter Sabrina was sure she knew better. The circumstances were wrong. The neighborhood was wrong. And no one could explain her dad’s odd behavior in the preceding few days, to say nothing of the mysterious phone calls he had made. Sure that the police are taking the easy way out, Sabrina brings her suspicions to Gil. He reluctantly agrees to take the case even though his specialty is insurance fraud, not homicide. As Gil hacks through a confusing thicket of evidence in the racial and ethnic mix of Southern California, we meet a lively cast of characters. There’s Quon, the suave diplomat, Lt. Hara, the homicide professional in charge, Jeff Ming, David’s worldly boss, and Diana, Gil’s beautiful girlfriend and David’s sister. It is only when Gil and Diana find themselves under suspicion for David’s murder that Gil goes all out to find the killer. He exacts a diabolical revenge–something he does with both relish and style. Readers will love the shocking solution to this fast-paced story. Drawing on his own varied experiences as a real-life private eye and former Army intelligence analyst, author Virgil Jose shows us the underside of international commerce–the legal, and the not-so-legal. We learn how a private eye exposes insurance fraud and uses sources as elementary as the public library or county recorder to help solve a murder. And we learn how high-tech American products can end up in the hands of potential enemies, something our government would like to prevent whenever possible. |

Dave has also included in this book all of the important points from a book written by Donald Trump, so you don’t have to read it yourself. Plus he explains how to tip, how to negotiate for everything (including bridge tolls), how to argue with your spouse about money, and how much allowance to give your children (three dollars is plenty).

Love-Lies-Bleeding by Don DeLillo |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Love-Lies-Bleeding, Don DeLillo’s third play, is a daring, profoundly compassionate story about life, death, art and human connection. Three people gather to determine the fate of the man who sits in a straight-backed chair saying nothing. He is Alex Macklin, who gave up easel painting to do land art in the southwestern desert, and he is seventy now, helpless in the wake of a second stroke. The people around him are the bearers of a complicated love, his son, his young wife, the older woman–his wife of years past–who feels the emotional tenacity of a love long-ended. It is their question to answer. When does life end, and when should it end? In this remote setting, without seeking medical or legal guidance, they move unsteadily toward last things. Luminous, spare, unnervingly comic and always deeply moving, Love-Lies-Bleeding explores a number of perilous questions about the value of life and how we measure it. |

The Good Son by Craig Nova |
| DESCRIPTION: |
“The Good Son is the work of an artist in full command, and those of you entering it for the first time can only be envied.”–From the foreword by Jonathan Yardley. Chip Mackinnon returns from World War II a changed man. After being shot down over the desert and imprisoned by the enemy, the world of privilege to which he belongs seems shallow. But in the shadow of his older brother’s death, the full weight of his father’s expectations falls on Chip. Pop Mackinnon–whose money is new but just as good as anyone else’s–has designs on the upper echelons of society. The polo ponies and expensive education he bought for his son weren’t gifts; they were an investment in the family’s future. Now it’s time for Chip to pay him back by marrying a girl who can finally bring the Mackinnons into society’s inner circle. A shrewd and cunning man, Pop is used to getting his way–until the arrival of Jean Cooper, that is. This Midwestern beauty awakens Chip’s passions, and the two embark on an affair that threatens to destroy Pop’s social-climbing plans. A battle of wills between father and son ensues, one that tests the boundaries of their relationship and strays into the place where love turns irrevocably to hate. Originally published in 1982 to wide acclaim, The Good Son remains Craig Nova’s undisputed masterpiece. This classic of contemporary American literature artfully explores the complicated web of emotions that exists between fathers and sons–ambition, jealousy, loyalty, love–in a tale that compels with its simple, searing honesty. |

Whale Season by N. M. Kelby |
| DESCRIPTION: |
One Christmas Eve, Whale Harbor is visited by a man who thinks he’s Jesus and claims to be looking for a game of poker. But, as usual, things are not quite what they seem. Having some version of the Lord in town for his birthday creates a strange effect on the locals: unlikely couples are breaking up and making up and making out; a luxury mobile home that belonged to an elderly couple from New Jersey (until they disappeared after a run-in with “the Lord”) is won by a down-on-his-luck gambler in an unbelievable hand of poker; the area’s most well-known and long-forgotten tourist attraction is rising up from a hole in the ground; and a gun no one has used in years is suddenly in hot demand. In the steamy climes of southern Florida, you take your miracles where you can get them–and if that means being led to salvation by a schizophrenic with a rap sheet, so be it. In the rollicking tradition of Carl Hiaasen’s Tourist Season, with the heart of Garrison Keillor’s Lake Wobegon, and peopled by the kind of colorful characters who would be quite at home in any Tom Robbins novel, N. M. Kelby’s Whale Season is a sharp and funny novel made up of equal parts comic adventure and serial-killer inspired mayhem. |

Love and Other Impossible Pursuits by Ayelet Waldman |
| DESCRIPTION: |
With wry candor and tender humor, acclaimed novelist Ayelet Waldman has crafted a strikingly beautiful novel for our time, tackling the absurdities of modern life and reminding us why we love some people no matter what. For Emilia Greenleaf, life is by turns a comedy of errors and an emotional minefield. Yes, she’s a Harvard Law grad who married her soul mate. Yes, they live in elegant comfort on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. But with her one-and-only, Jack, came a stepson–a know-it-all preschooler named William who has become her number one responsibility every Wednesday afternoon. With William, Emilia encounters a number of impossible pursuits–such as the pursuit of cab drivers who speed away when they see William’s industrial-strength car seat and the pursuit of lactose-free, strawberry-flavored, patisserie-quality cupcakes, despite the fact that William’s allergy is a figment of his over-protective mother’s imagination. As much as Emilia wants to find common ground with William, she becomes completely preoccupied when she loses her newborn daughter. After this, the sight of any child brings her to tears, and Wednesdays with William are almost impossible. When his unceasing questions turn to the baby’s death, Emilia is at a total loss. Doesn’t anyone understand that self-pity is a full-time job? Ironically, it is only through her blundering attempts to bond with William that she finally heals herself and learns what family really means. |

Strapped: Why America’s 20- and 30-Somethings Can’t Get Ahead by Tamara Draut |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Drowning in student loan and credit card debt? Can?t afford to get married, buy a home, have children? At last, a book for the under-35 generation (and their parents) that explains why it is not their fault. Strapped offers a groundbreaking look at the new obstacle course facing young adults–the under-35 crowd–as they try to build careers, buy homes, and start families. As Tamara Draut explains, getting ahead is getting harder. A college degree is the new high school diploma–but it now costs a fortune to get that degree, and students graduate with crippling debts. Good jobs are scarcer thanks to stagnant wages and disappearing benefits. And, the cost of everything–starter homes, health coverage, child care–keeps going up and up. Budding families, even those with two incomes, struggle to pay the bills, while Visa and Mastercard have become the new safety net. Young adults are starting out behind the financial eight ball–borrowing their way into adulthood and wondering whatever happened to the American Dream. Is this the way things have to be? Not at all, argues Tamara Draut, a leading young commentator and a fresh voice for change. She shows how the obstacle course bedeviling young adults didn?t just happen–it was allowed to happen by a generation of leaders more interested in serving wealthy interests than in investing in the nation?s future. Strapped brims with ideas for a new kind of America where every young person can go to college, buy a home, and start a family. Strapped will help jump-start a national conversation about where the country is failing–and how we can make it right again. |

How We Compete: What Companies Around the World are Doing to Make It in Today’s Economy by Suzanne Berger |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Based on a five-year study by the MIT Industrial Performance Center, How We Compete goes into the trenches of over 500 international companies to discover which practices are succeeding in today?s global economy, which are failing–and why. There is a rising fear in America that no job is safe. In industry after industry, jobs seem to be moving to low-wage countries in Asia, Central America, and Eastern Europe. Production once handled entirely in U.S. factories is now broken into pieces and farmed out to locations around the world. To discover whether our current fears about globalization are justified, Suzanne Berger and a group of MIT researchers went to the front lines, visiting workplaces and factories around the world. They conducted interviews with managers at more than 500 companies, asking questions about which parts of the manufacturing process are carried out in their own plants and which are outsourced, who their biggest competitors are, and how they plan to grow their businesses. How We Compete presents their fascinating, and often surprising, conclusions. Berger and her team examined businesses where technology changes rapidly–such as electronics and software–as well as more traditional sectors, like the automobile industry, clothing, and textile industries. They compared the strategies and success of high-tech companies like Intel and Sony, who manufacture their products in their own plants, and Cisco and Dell, who rely primarily on outsourcing. They looked closely at textile and clothing to uncover why some companies, including the Gap and Liz Claiborne, choose to outsource production to foreign countries, while others, such as Zara and Benetton, base most operations at home. What emerged was far more complicated than the black-and-white picture presented by promoters and opponents of globalization. Contrary to popular belief, cheap labor is *not* the answer, and the world is not flat, as Thomas Friedman would have it. How We Compete shows that there are many different ways to win in the global economy, and that the avenues open to American companies are much wider than we ever imagined. |

The Skills to Pay the Bills: The Story of the Beastie Boys by Alan Light |
| DESCRIPTION: |
In 1987, three white Jewish boys from New York City were the most fascinating phenomenon in the burgeoning rap music scene. No, really. The Beastie Boys, barely out of their teens, had just released Licensed to Ill, which quickly became the first hip-hop album to reach number one on the charts. Pairing vulgar and hilarious lyrics with heavy-metal-derived musical backing and a punk DIY attitude, the Beasties–MCA (Adam Yauch), King Ad-Rock (Adam Horovitz), and Mike D (Michael Diamond)–changed the face of rap forever by bringing it into the mainstream. In the years that followed, they would change it again and again–musically, culturally, and politically. To create The Skills to Pay the Bills, Alan Light spent years taping conversations with the group, their friends, roommates, producers, engineers, collaborators, and other artists from Madonna to Chuck D. Here, as told from the inside, is the fascinating tale of three rump-shaking, innovative rappers whose albums still go platinum and whose tours continue to fill arenas after more than two decades of making music. The Skills to Pay the Bills chronicles the Beasties’ unique journey from the hardcore New York underground to the top of the Billboard charts. It is a story of larger-than-life personalities, noble causes, funky beats, and truly one of the most influential and ambitious groups of all time. I said, Where’d you get your information from, huh? “The first time I met them, I thought I was on Candid Camera.”–D.M.C. “I think I made out with Adam Yauch once in their dressing room.”–Madonna .”One of my favorite groups is the Beastie Boys.”–Bono |

Rebel in Chief: Inside the Bold and Controversial Presidency of George W. Bush by Fred Barnes |
| DESCRIPTION: |
You can’t worry about being vindicated, because the truth of the matter is, when you do big things, it’s going to take a while for history to really understand.” –President Bush, in an exclusive interview with Fred Barnes for Rebel-in-Chief. With Rebel-in-Chief, veteran political reporter Fred Barnes provides the defining book on George W. Bush’s presidency, giving an insider’s view of how Bush’s unique presidential style and bold reforms are dramatically remaking the country–and, indeed, the world. In the process, Barnes shows, the president is shaking up Washington and reshaping the conservative movement. Barnes has gained extraordinary access to the Bush administration for Rebel-in-Chief, conducting rare one-on-one interviews with President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and many other close presidential advisers. That access, along with Barnes’s extensive independent reporting and interviewing, produces an eye-opening look at this highly consequential–and controversial–presidency. Rebel-in-Chief reveals: How Bush acts as an “insurgent force” in the nation’s capital–”a different kind of president” who is turning the Washington establishment on its ear; How Bush is redefining conservatism for a new era–and creating a new Republican majority; The inside story of how Bush has revolutionized American foreign policy–and how the president’s crusade for democracy would have been anathema to Bush himself only five years ago; When and why Bush decided to go into Iraq, even knowing that he was putting his political future at risk; How a White House aide you’ve probably never heard of is shaping the Bush vision; The surprising and important ways Bush’s faith affects critical presidential decisions; How Bush has outmaneuvered his political opponents and surprised members of the press who have dismissed him as an intellectual bantamweight; How Bush routinely defies conventional wisdom because of his contempt for elite opinion and halfway reforms (“small-ball,” he calls them)–and why he usually wins. George W. Bush billed himself as a “different kind of Republican.” He has proved to be a different kind of president, too. And Fred Barnes’s riveting behind-the-scenes account helps us understand how much this “Rebel-in-Chief ” is reshaping the world around us. |

You’re Wearing That?” Understanding Mothers and Daughters in Conversation by Deborah Tannen |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Deborah Tannen’s #1 New York Times bestseller You Just Don’t Understand revolutionized communication between women and men. Now, in her most provocative and engaging book to date, she takes on what is potentially the most fraught and passionate connection of women’s lives: the mother-daughter relationship. It was Tannen who first showed us that men and women speak different languages. Mothers and daughters speak the same language–but still often misunderstand each other, as they struggle to find the right balance between closeness and independence. Both mothers and daughters want to be seen for who they are, but tend to see the other as falling short of who she should be. Each overestimates the other’s power and underestimates her own. Why do daughters complain that their mothers always criticize, while mothers feel hurt that their daughters shut them out? Why do mothers and daughters critique each other on the Big Three–hair, clothes, and weight–while longing for approval and understanding? And why do they scrutinize each other for reflections of themselves? Deborah Tannen answers these and many other questions as she explains why a remark that would be harmless coming from anyone else can cause an explosion when it comes from your mother or your daughter. She examines every aspect of this complex dynamic, from the dark side that can shadow a woman throughout her life, to the new technologies like e-mail and instant messaging that are transforming mother-daughter communication. Most important, she helps mothers and daughters understand each other, the key to improving their relationship. With groundbreaking insights, pitch-perfect dialogues, and deeply moving memories of her own mother, Tannen untangles the knots daughters and mothers can get tied up in. Readers will appreciate Tannen’s humor as they see themselves on every page and come away with real hope for breaking down barriers and opening new lines of communication. Eye-opening and heartfelt, You’re Wearing That? illuminates and enriches one of the most important relationships in our lives. |

He went back to the wilderness again, as these old hunters almost invariably do, on one pretext or another. They cannot endure civilization for very long, its noise and racket and the omnipresence of broad-clothed humanity proving more trying to their nerves than the dangers of the desert. |

The Prophetic Ministry by Rick Joyner |
| DESCRIPTION: |
What is prophecy? Who is to prophesy? Is it right to seek prophecy? Since we have the Bible for guidance, do we really need prophecy today? How do the prophetic gifts and ministries function in the local church? Why do we need prophets if all God�s people are able to hear His voice? Can a true prophet miss a prediction? How can we recognize counterfeit gifts of the Spirit? These are just a few of the common questions being asked in the church today. If the church does not provide biblical answers, we can be sure the vacuum created by ignorance will be filled with deceptions. If you refuse to settle for less than all God has for you? If you won’t be intimidated by those who claim that God doesn’t still speak today. This book will answer your questions and challenge you to know God and hear from Him as you never have before! |

Bible Nobodies Who Became Somebodies by Lance Wubbels |
| DESCRIPTION: |
One of the lessons gained from the staggering success of The Prayer of Jabez is that even the most obscure biblical characters and stories have profound lessons to teach God’s people. The Bible is filled with many fascinating individuals who lived their lives in the shadowlands of insignificance. Tucked away here and there in the pages of sacred Scripture, we may have passed over them as irrelevant nobodies, yet many of them lived their lives in faith and obedience to God despite facing overwhelming odds. God included their stories in the Scriptures for a reason, and though we might consider them Bible nobodies, they truly were somebodies. We discover that God used people from all walks of life, not just the familiar superstars. The moments of destiny in the lives of these ordinary people will rekindle a spark of hope for that same destiny for our lives today. Fifty engaging biblical characters are set forth in Reader’s Digest-length readings, and each chapter is filled with insight, inspiration, and practical application. Compiled and significantly adapted or rewritten for today’s reader from the classic writings of numerous legendary Christian expositors, such as Charles Spurgeon and others, these readings provide timeless truth that is as relevant today as the day they were penned. |

The Supernatural Power of a Transformed Mind by Bill Johnson |

Moving in the spiritual realm should be as much a part of a believer’s routine as prayer, worship and reading Scripture. Yet all too often, Christians practice an intellectual faith, which lacks any supernatural punch. Healing, deliverance and signs and wonders are an inheritance for all followers of Jesus Christ. The Supernatural Power of a Transformed Mind teaches you how to remove the blinders of religious limitation to redeem the lost and transform communities. You too can tap into an abundance of miracle-working authority and unleash the power of God’s glory. |

| DESCRIPTION: |
The author of three New York Times bestselling masterworks of tense and unrelenting drama, the phenomenal Andrea Kane returns with an electrifying thriller that takes romantic suspense to a breathtaking new level “I’ll be watching you…” the cryptic e-mail read. Taylor Halstead, psychologist and successful radio personality, is terrified that she’ll never be safe again. Coming on the heels of a series of tragic and terrible events, the e-mail sends chills racing up her spine. Her safe, secure world has already been violated by her cousin Stephanie’s boyfriend, Gordon Mallory, in her own apartment. Only the door buzzer and Stephanie’s intervening voice rescue her, but not before Gordon promises to return. Soon after, he is killed along with Stephanie in an inexplicable explosion aboard his yacht. Or is he? The e-mail is just the beginning. The terror campaign escalates when an electronically disguised voice on Taylor’s telephone threatens to kill her, and her life becomes a nightmare. It seems the only one she can turn to is attorney Reed Weston, her confidant, protector, and, ultimately, lover. But is Reed’s determination to protect her enough to avert disaster? And can Taylor trust Gordon’s identical twin, Jonathan, who always seems to show up when she least expects him? Grief and dread unravel Taylor’s sanity, playing tricks with her mind and heart. Someone out there wants her dead–a crazed fan or the troubled teenage boy she’s been counseling or, impossibly, Gordon himself. His vow to return and those final menacing words–”I’ll be watching you”–haunt her day and night. Whoever is out there is coming closer, and Taylor Halstead has nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. |

The Yoshinobu Mysteries, Volume 2 by John A. Brousssard |
| DESCRIPTION: |
These four mysteries are part of a current twelve volume series. The protagonist is a young, Japanese/American attorney. Her specialty is criminal law, and these cases where she represents individuals charged with or suspected of murder reveal an attorney who is deeply devoted to defending her clients. The setting is mainly Elima, a composite of the Hawaiian Islands where Kay Yoshinobu is practicing criminal law along with her husband Sidney Chu and senior partner Qual Smith. Kay specializes in thoroughly investigating the lives of her clients. And truthfulness is not the most frequent virtue of the people Kay chooses to defend. Sid is a brilliant trial attorney, who is frequently exasperated by Kay’s avocation as an investigator. Qual is the stabilizing force in the firm. Widely respected in the community of Napua, where their practice is located, his legal experience goes far in contributing to the firm’s success. Craig Thomas, Qual’s significant other, is a contributor to the firm’s cases in the form of information about some of the marginal activities on Elima and in Honolulu. Leilani Pak is the firm’s longtime receptionist/secretary, invaluable in that she seems to be related to most of the island’s inhabitants and knows virtually all the other. Homicide Lieutenant Hank DeMello of the Napua Police Department is the sometimes friend, sometimes foe, of Kay and her colleagues. Hank never forgets that his job is to find and arrest criminals. Sergeant Corky Honda shares Hank’s views but she is far more prone to provide help to Kay, knowing that the help will be reciprocated. You can expect to find a wide-ranging series of mysteries here, beginning with the life and loves of Smith, Chu and Yoshinobu’s newest attorney, Laura Correa. Despite her successful career as a lawyer, Laura is having endless problems with her love life. When she finally finds what seems to be an ideal mate, her world comes crashing down. And then there’s the strange setting where a body falls out of an elevator at an exclusive apartment complex. Kay’s efforts on behalf of her client who has motive enough to have been the killer lead her into strange byways and expose her to a danger she had never anticipated. An even stranger setting is the Hobart dishwasher at a resort hotel. Why would anyone stash a body in the maw of this monster? Since the dead man turns out to be the hotel’s owner, on vacation with some of his staff and family from his home in Japan, there’s plenty of pressure, both local and international, on the police to solve the crime–pronto. A plane crash off of San Francisco becomes central in Kay’s efforts to find out the true nature of her client, accused of killing the wife of a local business executive. Kay’s client is murdered, even before she has a chance to even organize his defense. Unusual for them, Kay and her husband Sidney Chu, feel compelled to carry on their investigations on the Mainland. Their trip is far more revealing than even they had anticipated. |

The Boundaries of Her Body: The Troubling History of Women’s Rights in America by Debran Rowland |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Whatever your political beliefs, if you are a woman, you must know what the law says about you. The Boundaries of Her Body is the definitive history of the cycle of advances and setbacks that characterizes women?s rights in America. Author Debran Rowland covers emotionally charged issues with thoughtful detail, offering insight into the strategies used by politicians and lobbyists to defeat long-standing law. The defeat for women?s rights is an emotional and often polarized debate: a debate over what a woman is, what a woman ought to be, and what a woman should, therefore, be allowed to do. Today, the future of women?s rights is in jeopardy. “If I had to guess at the future for women, I would say we stand to lose many more significant battles?and the rights that go with them?if we don?t begin to abandon the niceties of a comfortable life with educated opinions and start waging the kind of aggressive, no-holds-barred guerrilla war that our opponents have been riding to victory.” ?from the Epilogue to The Boundaries of Her Body Rowland combines provocative arguments with exhaustive research and affirms that, in spite of advancements, the boundaries of women?s bodies will continue to be a source of bitter contention in the law. “Debran Rowland brilliantly argues the continuing inequality of women?s rights in America with the most meticulous and comprehensive research in our times.” ?Betty Friedan author of The Feminine Mystique |
