Vengeance knows no bounds Emergency Landing Station No. 17, light-years away from our solar system, has rarely been used since the Space Corps developed bigger and better ships that can bypass the planetoid as they head into deep space. Yet all the E.L.S.’s, including No. 17, are still manned by intrepid volunteers from an overpopulated Earth. Dave Perry and his family are drawing to the end of a three-year assignment on E.L.S. 17. Their time at the station passed relatively uneventfully, the simulated weather and high-tech holograms mimic Earth well enough that it’s easy to forget it’s all an illusion. Until the incidents begin—flawless machines start to malfunction, anomalies appear in the holograms, foreign bodies materialize within the airtight walls of the space station’s dome. At first Dave tries to convince himself that it is mere coincidence, or that the years of isolation have induced a kind of mass hysteria around unconnected events. But then the incidents increase in ferocity and communication with Earth is cut off. It becomes clear a vicious saboteur walks among them. Millions of miles from aid, Dave will need to rely on raw instinct to outsmart the sadist stalking his family.

'I was pulled into simple living before I knew what it was. It crept up on me using the smallest of steps and didn't reveal its true beauty and real power until I was totally hooked. I was searching for a way to live well while spending very little money. What I found was a way of life that also gave me independence, opportunity and freedom.' Rhonda Hetzel gently encourages readers to find the pleasure and meaning in a simpler life, sharing all the practical information she has gathered on her own journey. Whether you want to learn how to grow tomatoes, bake bread, make your own soap and preserve fruit, or just be inspired to slow down and live more sustainably, Down to Earth will be your guide.

Counting by 7s meets See You in the Cosmos in this heartwarming coming-of-age story perfect for the budding geologists and those fascinated by the mysteries of the universe. Henry has always been fascinated by rocks. As a homeschooler, he pours through the R volume of the encyclopedia (to help him identify the rocks he finds). So, when a meteorite falls in his family's field, who better to investigate than this rock enthusiast--with his best friend, James, and his little sister, Birdie, in tow, of course. But soon after the meteorite's arrival, the water in Henry's small Maine town starts drying up. It's not long before news spreads that the space rock and Henry's family might be to blame. Henry is determined to defend his newest discovery, but his knowledge of geology could not have prepared him for how much this stone from the sky would change his community, his family, and even himself. Science and wonder abound in this middle-grade debut about an inquisitive boy and the massive rock that came down to Earth to reshape his life.

Back when I started www.rahulmookerjee.com - - I never, ever thought it would morph into a full time business like it is now. From Fast and Furious Fitness – to Gorilla Grip – to 0 Excuses Fitness – Gumption Galore, and everything else we’ve put out thus far, it’s been a wild wild ride, and it promises to get even better! The comments and feedback we receive on a regular basis via social media and email etc is something that makes it ALL worth it. If there is something that folks love about us, it’s our direct, in your face, NO nonsense style - - not just with regard to fitness instruction, but the 0 Excuses Fitness philosophy as well – as well as our daily fitness tips that we put out on a regular basis that people wake up to every morning! It is THESE fits, and the “rambunctious” ovation to these tips that I put out the first Edition of Fitness Central – then the second – then the third – all in all, a mind boggling 153 fitness tips - - but now (and despite the feedback I’ve gotten), I’ll go one BETTER. Instead of purchasing all three fitness manuals separately, you can now purchase them all as ONE reader - - one giant MOTIVATIONAL fitness package as it were - - with all the same tips as in the three books - - but at a reduced price. Truth be told, I could charge you upwards of $100 for EACH of the fitness books, and you’d still get your money’s value and THEN SOME. Truth be told, even ONE of these tips by themselves is worth their worth in GOLD – spades – mucho dinero – what have you! And truth be told, the BENEFITS you’ll get from following even one of these tips far, far outweighs what you’ll get from following the “staid ole routines” at the gym for years! Now, if you’re with me thus far, and if you’ve cracked open even one of the Fitness Central books, you KNOW the benefits you’ll get from these books. Just in case you aren’t though, and just in case you chance upon this package “first up”, here are (at a glance) some of the benefits you’ll get from this book - - -Finger tip pushups, and what you really need to know about them!-Why the way your muscles “look” aren’t the most important – or even a little bit important. -The skinny on grip strength and building rock solid, coruscating levels of “kung fu” like grip strength. My manuals on grip training do a great job here ... and these tips are but the icing on the cake - - but a much needing icing! -The truth about calluses that most people will NOT tell you. -The one exercise combo that will give you explosive gains all over your upper body. Once you go this route, you’ll never go back … trust me! -How shorter workouts can be just as - - in fact, way more effective than the long, drawn out workouts you’ve been advised to do - - and how they benefit your HEALTH and MINDSET more than you could ever imagine! -How foreign devils in China workout - -and why these workouts are so brutally effective! Yet another one “for the books” as it were … -Why your breath is literally the most important thing you should focus upon during your exercise routine - - and how you can burn fat off your frame almost instantly once you start applying the right breathing techniques. Believe me - - THIS tip alone is something most folks would be happy to drop more than a hundred smackers on to learn! -You’ll learn about my much vaunted and much famous (all over the Internet) hill climb from China, and how it benefited me, and how similar workouts can benefit YOU! -You will learn how to get cardio workouts in like NEVER before – workouts that take less than 15 minutes, and leave you soaked in sweat, burning fat like never before and feeling on TOP of the world! -How to lose weight rapidly – and do it FAST. This is unconventional. You won’t see this information anywhere else. And yet … does it work? You bet your “betsy” it does! And much, much more, my friend. Grab it now - and write back and let me know how you do!!

Jessica stared at her father in disbelief as she said to herself, No Dad, she was not mistaken. You would not believe me if I told you it was Asa.

"This is not a detailed autobiography or a comprehensive anthology, because my life demands neither. It is, however, a brief account of certain people and events in what has been an entertaining and unusual life not yet completed. The story begins during the early years of my immigrant father's life, who was born in 1889, and it spans my life through 2009."--p.xi.
