Ask Hagan anything. Anything at all. Even how to outwit a madman … Once a promising young novelist with big literary dreams, John Winsley wakes up on the other side of forty as a third-rate hack with a perpetual hangover. Fueled by bitterness, he creates an obnoxious online persona as something of a lark—a funhouse version of Ann Landers named Hagan T. Stone with mad eyes, a black beard shaped like a spade, and an irreverent wit. The Ask Hagan advice column becomes a surprising worldwide hit. And it makes Winsley a very rich man. Wracked with guilt about the wife and daughter he abandoned, Winsley feels conflicted about his anonymous success … until an imposter claiming to be Hagan T. Stone shows up to reap all the rewards. Now Winsley only has to answer one question: How far will he go to get what he deserves? This taut, suspenseful tale kicks off Carter's latest collection. From a mysterious elevator in an Iowa cornfield to a crowded superstore where android spouses are bought like toasters, these six provocative forays into Carter's wide-ranging imagination never fail to surprise.

Lucifer's campaign to stop the prophecy of the coming Messiah has begun. As King David's life is threatened, the world needs a defender, born of man, raised by angels. Defender tells the story of Daniel, a young boy taken by the archangel, Michael, to the Valley of Eternity, home of angels. It is in this land of angels that Daniel is transformed into the mighty defender, trained by a flawed angel with a mysterious past. He must fulfill his destiny to battle the black-hearted giants of Lucifer. The fate of Christianity hangs in the balance. Cast from heaven, Lucifer, the Prince of the Earth, spreads destruction, hatred, and evil throughout the world. Well aware of the prophecy that a Messiah will descend from the line of David, he and his demons are on the loose, believing the time has come to once and for all destroy the plans of God. Archangel Michael and the army of God's angelic warriors will stand in his path, led by a young defender, Daniel, trained by the mysterious Hagan. It has been a long time since Lucifer has seen Hagan, yet their paths are about to cross again. Defender: A Story of Angels and Demons is a story of love, honor, and ultimate redemption as the curtain is pulled back on the spiritual world, revealing the battle of good versus evil. Which side will be victorious in the clash of God's angels against the demons of Lucifer?

WWII had gone into its fourth year. For Germany, the war is looking ever bleaker and this on many war fronts. Of course the one in the east is no exception. The German army is being pushed back continuously. Often enough, military formations are passed over by the foes and get surrounded. This is the story of just such a unit, which suddenly finds itself being cut off by the Russians and end up miles behind enemy lines. The sudden and vehement onset of the east’s famous hard winters makes things worse for the men of the Fifth Company. They must not only fight a relentless enemy, but harsh weather conditions to boot. Will they make it back to the own lines, which are also moving back? And if they do, who will be left behind, dead and frozen stiff far, far away from home?

In today's deeply divided world where discussions can quickly become heated and uncivil, churches need to learn how to talk about sensitive issues. Our society needs brave churches where people can talk about the real struggles they are experiencing without fear of being dismissed, shamed, or judged. Brave Church helps congregations talk about controversial topics with sensitivity to those who see the world and have experienced life differently from themselves. It guides readers to think through how they can foster conversations about such challenging topics as infertility/miscarriage, mental health, domestic violence, racism, and sexuality. In this 6-week small-group study, pastor Elizabeth Hagan weaves personal and theological reflections with scripture, discussion questions, and real-world examples to move readers from exploration to action. Brave Church includes a Leader's Guide and suggests resources for further reading and action.

In its 95-year history, the Kentucky Wildcats have won more games than any other college basketball team. Their winning percentage is the highest in the country. They share the record for the most 20-win seasons. They are second in all-time number one rankings. And despite no longer holding the record for winningest coach, Adolph Rupp will always be a giant in the pantheon of college basketball. When The Winning Tradition first appeared in 1984, it was the first complete history of the Wildcat basketball program. Bert Nelli pointed out that, contrary to the accepted mythology, Adolph Rupp arrived at a program already strong and storied. Nor did Rupp bring an entirely new style of play to the Bluegrass. Instead he adopted—and perfected—that of his predecessor, John Mauer. What Rupp did bring was an ability to charm the news media and a fierce determination to turn out winning teams, making him the undisputed "Baron of Basketball." This new and expanded edition of The Winning Tradition brings the history of Kentucky basketball up to date. Nelli and his son Steve turn the same unflinching gaze that characterized the honesty of the first edition on the scandals that marred Eddie Sutton's tenure, the return to glory under Rick Pitino, and a full accounting of Tubby Smith's history-making first year. The start of basketball season is welcomed in the Bluegrass with an unmatched enthusiasm and intensity. Each year brings a new team, new stars, and new glory. Other books have documented individual seasons, individual players, or individual coaches. But The Winning Tradition remains the only complete and authoritative history of the most celebrated college basketball program in the world. A book no fan can afford to be without, The Winning Tradition brings alive the agonies, frustrations, and glories of each season of Kentucky basketball, from the first team (fielded by women) to the surprising victory in the 1998 NCAA tournament.
