Soul Searcher: The Reckoning details the journey of one man, Rork, as he strives to find his past and answers to the strange memories and images which have plagued him for the past ten years. In making this journey, he will discover who he really is ... and was. Along the way, Rork gathers to his side an enigmatic forester with ties to a long-forgotten race, that young man's secret protector, and a boisterous islander with pride as large as the open canyon country. In the end, Rork finds himself torn between what he must do for himself and what he can do for others around him, for he learns of friendship and caring, and that is hard for a man with only half a soul. The past cannot be changed, and for some, the reality of that may prove too much to accept.

A thought-provoking and passionately written book, The Struggle for Freedom reflects on the culture of African political development in the early years of independence, and offers a penetrating analysis of despotic military regimes. Focusing on the author's native Nigeria, the book highlights the political struggle of the pro-democracy movements, the lives of the patriotic leaders involved, the bitter confrontation between the movements and the military regimes, and the eventual overthrow of a military dictatorship. It is a reflection on the struggle for ideals against the forces of oppression. The Struggle for Freedom also explores the dichotomy between Africa and African-Americans, and the seeming disconnect between the two. It discusses the need for understanding and a closer relationship based on shared values and a history linked by destiny. The book opens up a panorama of historic perspective and connects us to our roots. Moses Adeola grew up in Nigeria, West Africa and currently lives in Indianapolis, Indiana. Mr. Adeola's motivation for writing The Struggle for Freedom is his patriotic commitment to a pro-democracy movement in Nigeria.

Maureen Philpott Napier had just turned forty years old. Personally and professionally, she was at the top of her game. But on March 26, 2006, she suffered a paralyzing multiple sclerosis attack. Her life, her work, and her identity changed forever. During that first year of her diagnosis, she changed from being a food scientist by trade to a scientist exploring her soul. In this memoir, Maureen shares her battle with this progressive, destructive disease for which there is no known cure. Through her emotional, personal story and through poetry, Maureen narrates the challenging, but rewarding healing journey back to life. The path was often dark, painful, and lonely. But The Soul's Power describes how she came to understand the Divine gift given to her and how she continues to recreate her life and write her words of wisdom from her soul. An inspirational story of self-awareness, The Soul's Power demonstrates how one woman faced her demons and realized her greatest strength was buried deep within her.

Religious themes, concepts, imagery, and terminology have featured prominently in much recent science fiction. In the book you hold in your hands, scholars working in a range of disciplines (such as theology, literature, history, music, and anthropology) offer their perspectives on a variety of points at which religion and science fiction intersect. From Frankenstein, by way of Christian apocalyptic, to Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, and much more, and from the United States to China and back again, the authors who contribute to this volume serve as guides in the exploration of religion and science fiction as a multifaceted, multidisciplinary, and multicultural phenomenon.

WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE • From the bestselling author of To the End of the Land comes a searing story of loss and survival. In a dive bar in a small Israeli city, Dov Greenstein, a comedian a bit past his prime, takes the stage for his final show. Over the course of a single evening, Dov’s patter becomes a kind of memoir, taking us back into the terrors of his childhood. And in the dance between comic and audience, a deeper story begins to take shape as Dov confronts the decision that has shaped the course of his life—a story that will alter the lives of several of those in attendance. A Horse Walks Into a Bar is a poignant exploration of how people confront life’s capricious battering.
