The Second Star Man Omnibus: #3 Interstellar Mutineers and #4 The Cosmium Raiders by Stuart J. Byrne |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Find Out Why Gene Roddenberry Wanted Stu Byrne for Star Trek! Forget the captains of the Enterprise, the real space hero is Steve Germaine, the Star Man, featured in two complete novels in this special omnibus edition. In the first sf epic, Steve Germaine, has sacrificed his love for the mutant Annex Cardwell to fight for human freedom on the worlds of Alpha Centauri. Accompanied by “Si,” the human cyborg, Paul Traynor, another mutant, and a handful of others, Germaine has snuck Traynor’s small ship, Night Song, into a long train of cargo being escorted back to Sol. Germaine’s goal is nothing less than to attack the tyrants of Earth, who hold the worlds in thrall, with the Night Song’s new paralysis weapon, Now, in the midst of a 4.3 light year voyage, Germaine finds himself and his mission threatened by conspiracies and power struggles. For behind the mission lurks a secret plotter who plans to use the revolutionaries as mere puppets on his way to grasping supreme power. Not knowing who to trust, Star Man must cut the strings of the puppet masters before they cut his throat. If he survives, he will have to capture Sol’s first cosmium-powered interstellar warship, which is protected by all the might of Earth’s space navy, before he can possibly think about returning to the woman he loves. In book four, Steve Germaine leads a desperate raid to Mars to break into the impregnable vaults that hold the dictators’ coveted hoard of cosmium, the metal of power. Cosmium is the key to Germains’ plan for overthrowing the tyranny that holds the stars in slavery. The problem is not only how to steal the cosmium but also how to escape with the booty with all Earth’s Navy on his heels. Also, Star Man’s long personal battle against the insidious schemer, Vincent Cardwell, could hold the vital key to human liberty on many worlds already aflame with revolt. What Germaine doesn’t know is that in discovering Cardwell’s secret, he will acquire the greater burden of becoming THE WORLD CHANGER. [Cover Art by Igor Varavin.] |

An erotic study of lost love–rediscovered! Everybody needs a second chance in life, career, and love. It is a subject of universal appeal. We all wonder about those turning points in our lives where things might have been totally different! What if…” It was a question that haunted David Carter for a decade: What if Connie Anderson had never left for California and a career in show-business? She would now be his wife! David had believed their love affair was ancient history when, years before, he had married her young sister Pat. But when Connie comes to visit, hot from a divorce, they suddenly discovered that their “One Summer of Love” had left unfulfilled hungers, that are now overwhelming. Her dreams of fame in show-business had been crushed by years of struggle. Here, in Small Town U.S.A., she had been popular, admired and loved. Now her need to heal rekindles the youthful hungers that had flamed so bright in David’s arms. The timing couldn’t have been worse! His job was up for grabs, and his marriage to Pat at a dangerous stage that could very easily end up on the rocks. Mr. Nuetzel writes: “Everybody has somebody they just missed out on. An unfinished love affair. I realized this was a wonderful place to explore raw human emotions.” The author reworked the book for Fictionwise and now offers a romantic novel of lost love rediscovered. |

Radiant Fire by Max Ibach |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Relentlessly emotional and gripping, Radiant Fire is told in the spirit of dashing adventure and the language of the current-day female warrior. The story contains strafing wit, a mindless helping of sexual indulgence, the airborne violence of war and the charged energy of two people being held apart by circumstances beyond their control. This tale propels the reader toward its ultimate conclusion with all the captivation and enchantment of a runaway train. When Shelley Baker’s mother is killed by a drunken driver, the young woman dedicates herself to her father and to personal excellence. What follows is her graduation as the valedictorian of her high school class and an appointment to the United States Air Force Academy. The first year of Academy training finds her thoroughly infatuated with upper classman, Cadet Captain Randall Cummings. A complex blend of romantic illusion and sexual mischief tracks the mental and physical torment of young love. Unfortunately, Randall is a linguist with a photographic memory and mother tongue fluency in five languages, two of which are Middle Eastern dialects. While they are engaged in the revolving mating dance of desire, Randall proposes marriage and when Shelley accepts, he gives her an engagement ring containing a rare and marvelously huge blue diamond. After his graduation, and six months before their wedding date, Lieutenant Cummings vanishes without a trace or the advanced knowledge of his intended bride. The Air Force denies any knowledge of his whereabouts, but Shelley determines through a former classmate that his personnel file has been transferred to a Black-Operations-Agency, instead of being terminated. While awaiting her beloved’s return, Shelley graduates from the Academy and pilot training; becomes a combat ready F-16 Fighter Pilot and participates in the air war of Operation Desert Storm. Nearly two years after their original wedding date, she discovers what happened to her beloved in an emotionally charged dramatic conclusion.

Gabriel’s Fate by Alice Duncan |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Railroading across the burnt brown landscape of a Southwest summer, fortune-teller Sophie Madrigal told the fortunes of anyone curious enough to pass the velvet curtain of her makeshift parlor–and Gabriel Caine was just such a man. The black-clad bounty hunter was on the hunt for a murderer, and nothing would stop him from bagging his prize. So when the gorgeous Gabriel laughingly offered his palm, Sophie felt compelled to reveal everything … or almost everything. What Sophie didn’t divulge was that she, too, appeared in his future. Or that she was at a loss to explain the heady scent of sweet spice that swirled around her whenever Gabriel was near. Or that her will seemed to crumble to dust beneath his chestnut gaze. “Magic,” claimed her wise old aunt, and Sophie feared the woman must be right. For nothing short of magic–unless it was love–would have ensnared her so completely in GABRIEL’S FATE. |

Before he knows what’s happening, they’re putting their heads together on the jobsite–and their bodies together in the bedroom … Unlike his relationships of the past, however, he has much to sacrifice should this one run amok. He can’t win the Key Award without her help, her friendship is irreplaceable … and after tumbling in the sheets amid double standards and a secret paternity suit, he can forget about regaining her respect.

Bent Coin by Stephen P. Byers |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Jack Haldimann was drunk the night he spent with an Oriental prostitute. Nine months later in September 1857, she left the result on his front porch. With his sister’s help, Jack raised the boy he named Joe. During the famous Chicago fire of 1871, Joe left home never to return. And so begins the saga of three generations of Jack’s descendants: his son Joe who amassed a fortune in Chicago real estate; his granddaughter Suzanne who made an unfortunate choice of husband; and his great-grandson Sam on whom nature bestowed the genes of that Oriental great-grandmother. Sprinkled with humor, wrought with pathos, interspersed with love, three generations of descendants live their lives and pass on their traits. When Joe drops dead in his office, Suzanne commits herself to preserve her father’s heritage against enormous odds. She rebounds from the devastation created by Joe’s death into the arms of a smooth-talking money-hungry charlatan who wants to take her for all he can get. When their son Sam comes into the world, born with the physical traits of his Oriental great-grandmother, Suzanne’s marriage begins to unwind. Her husband engineers a gigantic swindle against his underworld pals and escapes both their wrath and Suzanne’s. He is soon unmasked and left for dead. Meanwhile, Sam has grown up as a baseball prodigy. It is not his athleticism that distinguishes him, but his unusual managerial skills. Sam grows up, goes to war and comes home to marry. He buys a retail store completing his escape from parental control he has despised all his live. He organizes the South Chicago Softball League and finds fulfillment of his dreams. In the intervening years, Suzanne’s husband, while recovering from his beating, nurtures a dream of revenge for injustices he believes she engineered against him. He creates a deadly master plan that brings disastrous results when he finally swings into action. A mysterious Mafia character named Sergio Cellini winds his way through the tale. He amazes Suzanne with his clairvoyant capacity and advice in her moments of distress and anxiety. In speaking of her husband, Suzanne says, “No, Sergio, he is not a bad penny; he is a bent coin of worthless value.” The climactic ending sees the remaining progeny of Jack Haldimann’s promiscuous behavior meet their end, except Sam whose wife Eleanor says, “Well, they’re all gone now.” Each character displays strengths and weaknesses in this wonderful tale of Chicago life over a span of nearly one hundred years. This book was first published in 1999. This second edition (2005 by Stephen P. Byers) incorporates many revisions including a new first chapter; a closing paragraph in the last chapter explaining Sergio Cellini’s situation; and miscellaneous corrections and clarifications. |

Success by Lord Max Aitken Beaverbrook |
| DESCRIPTION: |
In the affairs of the world it (Success) is the supreme quality. How many men have brilliant schemes and yet are quite unable to execute them, and through their very brilliancy stumble unawares upon ruin? For round judgment there cluster many hundred qualities, like the setting round a jewel: the capacity to read the hearts of men; to draw an inexhaustible fountain of wisdom from every particle of experience in the past, and turn the current of this knowledge into the dynamic action of the future. Genius goes to the heart of a matter like an arrow from a bow, but judgment is the quality which learns from the world what the world has to teach and then goes one better. Shelley had genius, but he would not have been a success in Wall Street–though the poet showed a flash of business knowledge in refusing to lend money to Byron. |

Speeches and Letters of Abraham Lincoln, 1832-1865 by Abraham Lincoln |
| DESCRIPTION: |
No man since Washington has become to Americans so familiar or so beloved a figure as Abraham Lincoln. He is to them the representative and typical American, the man who best embodies the political ideals of the nation. He is typical in the fact that he sprang from the masses of the people, that he remained through his whole career a man of the people, that his chief desire was to be in accord with the beliefs and wishes of the people, that he never failed to trust in the people and to rely on their support. Every native American knows his life and his speeches. His anecdotes and witticisms have passed into the thought and the conversation of the whole nation as those of no other statesman have done. |

The Templar Legacy by Steve Berry |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The ancient order of the Knights Templar possessed untold wealth and absolute power over kings and popes … until the Inquisition, when they were wiped from the face of the earth, their hidden riches lost. But now two forces vying for the treasure have learned that it is not at all what they thought it was–and its true nature could change the modern world. Cotton Malone, one-time top operative for the U.S. Justice Department, is enjoying his quiet new life as an antiquarian book dealer in Copenhagen when an unexpected call to action reawakens his hair-trigger instincts–and plunges him back into the cloak-and-dagger world he thought he’d left behind. It begins with a violent robbery attempt on Cotton’s former supervisor, Stephanie Nelle, who’s far from home on a mission that has nothing to do with national security. Armed with vital clues to a series of centuries-old puzzles scattered across Europe, she means to crack a mystery that has tantalized scholars and fortune-hunters through the ages by finding the legendary cache of wealth and forbidden knowledge thought to have been lost forever when the order of the Knights Templar was exterminated in the fourteenth century. But she’s not alone. Competing for the historic prize–and desperate for the crucial information Stephanie possesses–is Raymond de Roquefort, a shadowy zealot with an army of assassins at his command. Welcome or not, Cotton seeks to even the odds in the perilous race. But the more he learns about the ancient conspiracy surrounding the Knights Templar, the more he realizes that even more than lives are at stake. At the end of a lethal game of conquest, rife with intrigue, treachery, and craven lust for power, lies a shattering discovery that could rock the civilized world–and, in the wrong hands, bring it to its knees. |

The Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier |
| DESCRIPTION: |
“Remember me when I’m gone” just took on a whole new meaning. The City is inhabited by the recently departed, who reside there only as long as they remain in the memories of the living. Among the current residents of this afterlife are Luka Sims, who prints the only newspaper in the City, with news from the other side; Coleman Kinzler, a vagrant who speaks the cautionary words of God; and Marion and Phillip Byrd, who find themselves falling in love again after decades of marriage. On Earth, Laura Byrd is trapped by extreme weather in an Antarctic research station. She’s alone and unable to contact the outside world: her radio is down and the power is failing. She’s running out of supplies as quickly as she’s running out of time. Kevin Brockmeier interweaves these two stories in a spellbinding tale of human connections across boundaries of all kinds. The Brief History of the Dead is the work of a remarkably gifted writer. |

Lipshitz Six, or Two Angry Blondes by T. Cooper |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Epic, ambitious, heartbreaking, and wholly original, T Cooper’s Lipshitz Six, or Two Angry Blondes is a literary tour de force that spans the twentieth century with one family’s search for a lost son. In Lipshitz Six, or Two Angry Blondes, author T Cooper chronicles the unusual history of the Lipshitz family, Jewish refugees who narrowly escape the bloody Russian pogroms of 1903. Upon landing at Ellis Island, Esther and Hersh Lipshitz lose their uncharacteristically blond-haired, blue-eyed son Reuven. Circumstances eventually force them to give up their fruitless search for Reuven and to join a relative living in the Texas panhandle. However, Esther never stops pondering the fate of her lost son, and when she sees a picture of the blond, blue-eyed Charles Lindbergh after his 1927 transatlantic flight, she becomes convinced that the aviator is her grown son Reuven. Esther’s obsession with Lindbergh (Reuven) slowly destroys those around her and will leave far-reaching effects on the entire Lipshitz family. In 2002 in New York City, we encounter the character T Cooper, the last living Lipshitz, who has received an unsolicited box from his estranged mother. In it, he finds clippings and letters to Charles Lindbergh and his family, all once carefully preserved by his great-grandmother Esther. When he is forced back to Texas to bury his suddenly and tragically deceased parents, T finds himself the inheritor of a family history filled with loose ends, factual errors, and maniacal behavior. An ex-literary golden boy who has quit writing to pursue a career as a bar mitzvah entertainer who impersonates the rapper Eminem, T struggles to make sense of all that came before him and-in light of his wife’s desire to have a baby-what legacy he might leave behind as well. |

Tenney’s Landing: Stories by Catherine Tudish |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The lives and histories of the denizens of Tenney’s Landing, a small Pennsylvania river town, intersect in ways both incidental and intimate as the townspeople learn that their capacity for hope and forgiveness is greater than they thought. In “Where the Devil Lost His Blanket,” Elizabeth Tenney embarks on an unexpected journey to return the remains of her deceased neighbor to South America. In “Jordan’s Stand,” a gruff old farmer forms an unlikely friendship with a young widow. In “The Springhouse,” a woman decides to leave her husband and return to Tenney’s Landing, where she becomes the unofficial guardian of all manner of community secrets. Evocative, resonant, and exquisitely tender, these stories capture moments of change–upheaval, renewal, and the quieter revolutions inspired by the small eventfulness of everyday life. Catherine Tudish’s remarkable debut illuminates the shared human condition through the particulars of a small American town. |

The Small Town Woman by Sami Un Nisa Asim |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The universe of The Girl’s Academy at Swapnviram to which they belonged was a large expanse of grass, trees and aging buildings. The place had once belonged to royalty. Kiran, Lalita, Bhanumati, Binnie, Ruby, Poornima and Dimple now belonged to it. It was theirs, like the very air that they breathed in. It was in the tears they wept. It was in the silent anguish that they each held within themselves. It was there as the lines permeated Kiran’s forehead that evening as she made her way back to her hostel. The monstrous universe was there in the glittering dewy peacocks that roamed the morning lanes. It was there in the trees, and it was there in the colourful parakeets in Ms. Lalita’s cage. Ms. Lalita had kept a cage full of these coloured birds. However an evil fate seemed to preside over her birds in the form of the cat that hovered about in the night. The love birds in Supremo’s cage had been dying out one by one. The blue, the green, the yellow and the albino fought each other and bled to death. Lalita could not understand why her peace loving birds had suddenly turned violent. Every morning Bhanumati balancing on her one good foot would clear out the mess, the carcass, and the feathers and wash out the stains of blood. Mutely and quietly she disposed off the dead. As the dead lay in the grassy rubble under the monstrous shadows of the trees, sounds emerged as if from another world. |

The Richest Man Who Ever Lived: King Solomon’s Secrets to Success, Wealth, and Happiness by Steven K. Scott |
| DESCRIPTION: |
Extraordinarily successful entrepreneur Steven K. Scott credits his many accomplishments in his life and work to the wisdom and insights he gained from King Solomon, who reigned over ancient Israel’s Golden Age and was known far and wide for his legendary wealth and his extraordinary knowledge of things both religious and secular. In The Richest Man Who Ever Lived, Scott shares the lessons he learned from King Solomon in the Book of Proverbs. Whenever he has followed Solomon’s advice, Scott has prospered enormously; the four times he defied Solomon’s wisdom, he lost millions of dollars and almost wrecked his marriage. In the book, Scott discusses the importance of diligence and how to achieve it, explains how to resolve conflicts and turn enemies into allies, and discloses the five qualities essential to becoming a valued and admired person at work and in your personal life. Scott underscores each of Solomon’s scriptural keys with anecdotes about his personal successes and failures, as well as those of such extraordinary people as Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Bill Gates, and Steven Spielberg. At once inspiring and instructive, The Richest Man Who Ever Lived weaves the timeless truths of the proverbs into an invaluable roadmap for successful living today. |

The Book of Understanding: Creating Your Own Path to Freedom by Osho |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The path to freedom is filled with questions and uncertainty. Is it possible to truly know who we are? Do our lives have a purpose, or are we just accidental? What are we meant to contribute? What are we meant to become, to create, and to share? In The Book of Understanding, Osho, one of the most provocative thinkers of our time, challenges us to understand our world and ourselves in a new and radical way. The first step toward understanding, he says, is to question and doubt all that we have been taught to believe. All our lives we’ve been handed so-called truths by countless others–beliefs we learned to accept without reason. It is only in questioning our beliefs, assumptions, and prejudices that we can begin to uncover our own unique voice and heal the divisions within us and without. Once we discover our authentic self, we can embrace all aspects of the human experience–from the earthy, pleasure-loving qualities that characterize Zorba the Greek to the watchful, silent qualities of Gautam the Buddha. We can become whole and live with integrity, able to respond with creativity and compassion to the religious, political, and cultural divides that currently plague our society. In this groundbreaking work, Osho identifies, loosens, and ultimately helps to untie the knots of fear and misunderstanding that restrict us–leaving us free to discover and create our own individual path to freedom. Doubt–because doubt is not a sin, it is the sign of your intelligence. |
