Storm of Reckoning

With the able assistance of her loyal ghostbusting team, of course... and the unexpected powers of Trevarr, a fiercely driven demon-hunter from another dimension. Their last mission--a supposedly simple haunting that turned into a demonic free-for-all--left them battered and ready for some R&R. But rest has to wait. Garrie and her team are summoned by an old friend in Sedona who desperately needs some occult assistance. Making matters worse, Trevarr has reappeared, bloody and bruised... and exiled forever from his homeworld. While happy to have Trevarr back at her side, Garrie is shocked to discover that Sedona's ethereal breezes are quiet, the usual paranormal activity nearly nonexistant... except for some oddball power surges that don't "taste" like our world at all. Then Garrie's friend disappears and all hell seems about to break loose as Sedona's ghosts rise up against Garrie and her team. With Trevarr's "not-cat" bond-partner hinting at dire trouble on their trail and Trevarr himself seeing enemies at every turn, Garrie is running out of time to figure out just what's happening in the Southwest...and to put a stop to it.

Henry VIII

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Graves, Michael A., PUBLISHER: Longman Publishing Group, Few historical figures are as familiar as King Henry VIII. Few kings have popular images created out of so much misinformation: that he was short, had six wives and a legion of mistresses, contracted syphilis and became a Protestant. Henry was a maze of contradictions and the object of much contemporary praise and criticism, adulation and condemnation. He had impressive strengths but also formidable weaknesses, amongst them inconstancy, financial irresponsibility, and a capacity for brutality. At the same time, his rule was vibrant, often exciting and dramatic, and of major significance for England's future. Michael Graves examines this complex personality and sorts out the reality from the myths to provide a highly readable study of early modern kingship as practised by one man.

Dare to Dream!: 25 Extraordinary Lives

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Humphrey, Sandra McLeod, PUBLISHER: Prometheus Books, Magical heroes like Harry Potter, Spiderman, or Catwoman provide plenty of entertainment for kids, but in real life heroes are made of sterner stuff than celluloid fantasies.

Starting with only their dreams, they worked hard and overcame obstacles to make their dreams come true. Some overcame physical handicaps, others psychological barriers like extreme shyness or feelings of inferiority; some faced racial discrimination or educational disadvantage, others financial burdens. In spite of these frustrations and discouragements, all of these people discovered in themselves the patience, perseverance, and determination to pursue their dreams beyond every obstacle. The message is clear: No matter who you are or where you come from, you too can accomplish extraordinary things, as long as you dare to dream and never, never, never give up

In Milton Lumky Territory

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dick, Philip K., PUBLISHER: Tor Books, In "The Novels of Philip K. Dick," Kim Stanley Robinson says that ""In Milton Lumky Territory"... is probably the best of Dick's realist novels aside from "Confessions of a Crap Artist,"" and calls it a "bitter indictment of the effects of capitalism." Dick, on the other hand, in his forward, says "This is actually a very funny book, and a good one, too." Milton Lumky territory is both an area of the western USA and a psychic terrain: the world and world-view of the traveling salesman. The story takes place in Boise, Idaho, with some extraordinary long-distance driving sequences in which our hero (young Bruce Stevens) drives from Boise to San Francisco, to Reno, to Pocatello, to Seattle, and back to Boise in search of a good deal on some wholesale typewriters. He falls under the spell of an attractive older woman, and of Milton Lumky, a middle-aged paper salesman whose territory is the Northwest. And then Bruce and the others slowly sink into the whirlpool of Bruce's immature personal obsessions and misperceptions. A compassionate and ironic portrayal of three characters enmeshed in a sticky web of everyday events, who have a basic failure to communicate, "In Milton Lumky Territory" stands out among Dick's early works.

Elizabeth Healy's Literary Tour of Ireland: See Ireland
