After miraculously surviving a plane crash in Myanmar, Allan Lokos shares what his long and painful recovery process is teaching him about humanity’s ability to survive—and even thrive—in the face of suffering. In Through the Flames, Allan Lokos tells the terrifying story of being on board a plane on Christmas Day with his wife, Susanna, when it crashed and exploded in flames. Lokos was severely burned in the accident, and in the days and weeks following the crash, Susanna was told by the many doctors who examined Lokos that he would not survive. As founder and guiding teacher of the Community Meditation Center in New York City, Lokos had spent decades cultivating compassion and non-attachment. Since the plane crash, his Buddhist practice has been mightily tested. In this inspiring account of his against-all-odds recovery, Lokos uses his experience as a window through which to examine the challenge of human suffering in general and addresses the question of how we can thrive in the midst of pain and uncertainty.

Ruethwyn's life was promising. Talented in magic, the young elven woman didn't fit in in her hometown, but was scheduled to attend the most renowned academy of magic in the kingdom, and was even building up the courage to confess her love in the hope that it might be returned.That all ended in a dragon's fire. Resvarygrath the Gilded, lord of the Golden Dominion, destroyed Ruethwyn's village, killed her parents and teacher, and stole away the young women of the village. Maimed by the dragon's flames, Ruethwyn was spared by a curious dark elf, who gave her a chance; she had two years to rescue her beloved, or risk losing her forever.Now, Ruethwyn has little time to recover as best she can. Missing an eye and an arm, her magic half-crippled and her wounds impossible to heal due to a curse, Ruethwyn's prospects at the academy are limited, but she refuses to give up. No matter what challenges she may face, she is determined not to surrender. She's lost too much and refuses to lose another.First, though, she needs to survive long enough, which proves more challenging than Ruethwyn expects.

The Tide of Poverty is a soberingly plausible account of how easy it would be to bring a nuclear device into our nation and to destroy not only the northern half of the State of Washington but to deliver four additional nuclear ‘dirty bombs’ to our nations’ capital. As wildfi res ravage our nation, as states secede from the union, as right wing hate groups gain leverage not only in local areas but in national politics as well the reader will begin to realize how perilously close to anarchy our nation has drifted. It is also a delightful account of how in many crisis ordinary people rise to what is demanded of heroes and thwart diabolical plots of massive intrigue and power. It is seldom the ‘super hero’ that ‘saves the day’. It is the ordinary person who lives up to the standard set by Robert Service when he in the 1800’s wrote “Carry On”. America needs to wake up to what is happening. For too long we have allowed political ideology to supplant common sense, science, even religion. You may deny that far right wing groups pose a danger to our nation and to your very last breath you may cast blame on others, yet when radiation burns your fl esh, when wildfi res consume your homes or fl oods sweep you out to sea you will still be dead. And so will your nation.
