![]() If you’re not a believer, it is unlikely you will understand the nature of these decisions and similar ones that will come in the future.Īnother change I’ve made on my web store is that I don’t entice you with juicy upsell offers that include books which teach fornication if the book you’re buying is not of that topic. In other words, I don’t want my work to be actively used to lead men into sin or to enable them to commit it, and while it’s true that “evil” can lead to good, as it did in my case, though at excruciating cost, I don’t want to directly aid men in evil pursuits. ![]() I will share more about these decisions in the future, but as of now I’ll say that I can no longer be a central node that men use to commit morally questionable acts. This action coincides with my decision to forbid casual sex discussion on my forum, though not discussion of other game mechanics like meeting women and dating. You can no longer buy them from my web store and new copies will soon be removed from third-party outlets. ![]() I have taken the following eleven books out of print. ![]()

![]() ![]() The rogue?s Unseelie heritage brings him into conflict with Lord Andrell, and the city?s peace is threatened. ![]() Meanwhile, a rogue Fae launches a vicious slaughter at Calgary?s largest public event, and Jason is dragged into an investigation and pursuit of a monster far more powerful than he is. Backed by the highest authority, the new Lord Andrell is there to build an Unseelie Court from nothing, and he will brook no interference, no challenges. He has spent half a year building relationships with the existing power structure?but all of that is thrown into chaos when the Fae leadership dictates that Calgary?s Court split into Seelie and Unseelie factions. Jason Kilkenny is a quarter-human Vassal of the Queen of the Fae and the neutral arbiter of supernatural affairs around the Fae Court in the Canadian city of Calgary. ![]() Bringing shadows that could burn everything down ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() After showing up with a bandaged proboscis, Elephant proceeds to tell the "long crazy story" of how it happened. SLJ"Įlephant and Piggie remain in the storytelling mode of We Are In A Book! (2010). The style may now be familiar, but the "Elephant & Piggie" stories remain fresh, amusing, and relevant to readers, who will sit on the edge of their seats as they eagerly anticipate the surprising turn of events. Willems's now classic and predictable formula, complete with an uncluttered background, large-type word balloons, and expressive characters, is as effective as ever. As readers expect, there is more to the story of Gerald's bandaged trunk than first imagined. Rhino shows up and he wants a turn, so Gerald lifts them both onto his trunk, and so on, until he has lifted Hippo, Rhino, and Hippo's big sister and her piano on his trunk. As Gerald tells Piggie, "a hippo on your trunk is heavy." But there is more to it. When he was playing with Hippo, he had the idea to lift him with his trunk. Gerald the Elephant recounts to Piggie the crazy story of how he broke his trunk. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Every scene was so well depicted, I missed nothing, every new detail was mine to be seen. It was so easily for me to be lost in the Outback with these men, to discover new butterflies, to fall in love. Yes, the plot is curious, I never heard or read a story like this one, but what perfectly worked here was the writing. I was very happy to meet Nicholas and Dave again, I remembered their story and the particularity of the plot caught my attention at the time. That said, I’m surprised to say I quite enjoyed the novel and I upgraded my rating at four stars and a half. I’m not sure how much this just released second edition of Butterfly Hunter is different, from what I understood the author made just minor editing. I read the previous edition of this title in the 2015 and I gave it three stars. ![]() As Dave teaches Nicholas everything he needs to survive in the Outback he discovers that he too has quite a bit to learn – and that very often the best way to locate something really important is just not to want to find it… However Nicholas Goring is no ordinary tourist, his search is far from straightforward, and it’s starting to look as if the butterflies don’t want to be found. ![]() It started as a simple assignment for Aussie bush guide Dave Taylor – escort a lone Englishman in quest of an unknown species of butterfly. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Unsuccessful in prosecuting his kidnappers, Northup continues upriver to New York, where he is finally reunited with his family and where he meets his grandson, Solomon Northup Staunton, for the first time. The white man’s defense, then, centers on the ludicrous assertion that the black Northup told Burch he was a slave and that “in fact he would like to go south.” The result is that Burch is absolved of all charges against him, and justice is left unsatisfied. Remarkably, Burch is allowed to testify on his own behalf, but Northup, being black, is not. Faced with overwhelming evidence against him, Burch can’t deny that he kept Northup a prisoner. Burch, the slave trader guilty of kidnapping and initially enslaving Solomon.īurch’s trial is something of a circus. Next, they travel to Washington, D.C., where they stay for a time in an attempt to pursue criminal prosecution against James H. ![]() First, in New Orleans, they secure an official certification from the State of Louisiana verifying that Solomon is indeed a free black man.

Ultimately, those same men would create edifices of mud, brick, and stone, and with them effectively divide humanity: on one side were those the walls protected on the other, those the walls kept out. With esteemed historian David Frye as our raconteur-guide in Walls, which Publishers Weekly praises as "informative, relevant, and thought-provoking," we journey back to a time before barriers of brick and stone even existed-to an era in which nomadic tribes vied for scarce resources, and each man was bred to a life of struggle. ![]() ![]() "A lively popular history of an oft-overlooked element in the development of human society" ( Library Journal)-walls- and a haunting and eye-opening saga that reveals a startling link between what we build and how we live. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Please see extended rules for appropriate alternative subreddits, like /r/suggestmeabook, /r/whatsthatbook, etc. ‘Should I read …?’, ‘What’s that book?’ posts, sales links, piracy, plagiarism, low quality book lists, unmarked spoilers (instructions for spoiler tags are in the sidebar), sensationalist headlines, novelty accounts, low effort content.
