With strong characters, “In Search of Taflerk” is the perfect combination of sci-fi, drama, and romance to keep you glued until the cliff hanging ending! I can’t wait to see what’s coming up next for Taflerk! A huge round of applause to BK Garner for this piece of work!" "What a wonderfully fast and fun read. It’s a sweet love story wrapped around an adventurous story of survival by our heroic extraterrestrial visitor." Space explorer Taflerk crashes on the alien planet Kurlandia, one infamous for its hostility towards aliens. His whole life he has been warned to never make contact with the planet. Fearing for his life, he tries to find shelter and safety from the hostile locals. A group of friends, who call themselves The Scorpions, find Taflerk, totally unaware he is not from their own planet. Taking him in, they do not realize the trouble they just got themselves into. Taflerk soon finds out that not all people on Kurlandia are hostile towards aliens, but still finds himself relentlessly hunted by the military. After escaping near death situations, he learns that Kurlandia is none other than the planet earth. Being hunted, unsure who is friend and foe, can Taflerk get off earth alive with the help from the Scorpions? Or will he fail to return to his home planet and his family?

Entrepreneurial Borrowing: Do Entrepreneurs Seek and Receive Enough Credit? reviews the extant literature on entrepreneurial borrowing and provides insights into some of the key concepts and findings in the literature. The term 'entrepreneurial borrowing' is used as shorthand for 'borrowing by Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs)'. The emphasis on the term 'borrowing' as opposed to 'lending' indicates there is a particular interest in exploring issues related to the demand for credit. In this respect, issues of entrepreneurial cognition and cognitive biases, along with related insights from the behavioral finance literature, receive due attention insofar as they may affect entrepreneurs' borrowing decisions. Finally, one cannot review this literature without examining the other (supply) side of the equation (that is, 'banks' and 'lending' to SMEs).

"I found myself considering those rare things only books can do, feats outside the purview of film or fine art . . . Gorgeous." —Samantha Hunt, The New York Times Book Review It is New Year’s Eve 1990, in a small town in southeast Australia. Ru’s father, Jack, one of thousands of Australians once conscripted to serve in the Vietnam War, has disappeared. This time Ru thinks he might be gone for good. As rumors spread of a huge black cat stalking the landscape beyond their door, the rest of the family is barely holding on. Ru’s sister, Lani, is throwing herself into sex, drugs, and dangerous company. Their mother, Evelyn, is escaping into memories of a more vibrant youth. And meanwhile there is Les, Jack’s inscrutable brother, who seems to move through their lives like a ghost, earning both trust and suspicion. A Loving, Faithful Animal is an incandescent portrait of one family searching for what may yet be redeemable from the ruins of war. Tender, brutal, and heart–stopping in its beauty, this novel marks the arrival in the United States of Josephine Rowe, the winner of the 2016 Elizabeth Jolley Prize and one of Australia’s most extraordinary young writers.
