She asks for a light. You reach in your pocket and dig out your Bic, strike the flint, and touch the flame to her cigarette. She inhales. The tip roils cinder. A line of flame draws down the paper, crossing the band, down the filter. It touches her lips and her entire face is a blaze. Engulfing, disappearing her hair, climbing down her throat, down her shoulders and arms and chest and belly, down her pants to her shoes. Washed in pumpkin light. She waves her arms, spinning in circles and howling. You run. Collected fiction.

When disaster strikes, can Jen and Sydney find the strength to lean on each other? Find out in this women's fiction meets family adventure novel.

WHAT IS "SEXUAL HEALING," BESIDES BEING THE NAME OF MARVIN GAYE'S LAST GREAT RECORD? The goal of sacred intimacy is to facilitate self-knowledge through erotic pleasure. Sacred intimates approach sexuality with the understanding that it's related to spirituality. They help people identify, embrace, and practice desire as holy, to see sexual embodiment as an expression of the soul. They hold the body as sacred and view erotic energy as a crucial component of human life and spiritual health. Their primary intention is that of healing -- not just addressing the wounds to the spirit and the flesh caused by sexual abuse, addiction, or disease but also acknowledging that the fun and the pleasure, the vitality and the divine mystery of sex have nourishing properties in and of themselves. Inspired by the visionary teachings of Joseph Kramer and the Body Electric School, Don Shewey shares his journey of building a sacred intimate practice and cultivating the capacity to treat each client as a combination of Daddy, lover, and God. This unvarnished account of his unfolding discoveries will be both illuminating and validating to past, present, and future practitioners, to seekers of sexual healing, or simply to sentient beings with an interest in the varieties of human sexual experience.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of Space Corps Marines were incinerated before they ever set foot on Kanaris. They turned out to be the lucky ones. When Eamon Tauk crawled out of the wreckage of Wasp-Three, he was pummeled by the realization that they were separated from their objective by hundreds of kilometers of hostile rainforest. For infuriating reasons the young cadet could not even begin to comprehend, there would be no effort to rescue them. Their only chance at survival lies in carving a path through an alien jungle to the lost colony of Narman's Pyke, hoping that whatever claimed the outpost's inhabitants was no longer lurking there. Along with Jella Duverii, an expert in alien zoology who grew up in "The Pyke," Tauk fights to keep his troops alive in a place where death awaits them at every turn. To survive the jungle, they must confront nightmarish predators, nearly impassible terrain, and the creeping madness brought on by the unrelenting Kanarisian rain. As they approach the unknown horrors that await them at their destination, Tauk begins to recognize that, as ferocious and merciless as the beasts that prey upon them are, the gravest threat to the lives of his troops and the woman he has come to love just might be themselves. Narman's Pyke is the electrifying first book of a new military sci-fi series. If you like character-driven, high-adventure space-thrillers with blood-chilling creatures, alien intrigue, romance, and suspense, then you will love J.E. Park's sprawling space saga!

The saga continues. Book II of the Cleelok series, The Cabal of Lochom, picks up where the first book left off. Their new mission, commanded of them by a Beleg, one of the creators of the world, is to destroy the secretive Cabal of Lochom whose members are rarely spoken of, let alone seen. While searching through empty and ruined towns for clues, they must struggle against darkness embodied in smoke made solid, the Tlana. At least they will have the assistance of several Yavens, the eternal creatures of Law that the Belegs sprang from.Clerin, the great communicator between the Belegs, has been given the mission. It must be solved before she can finish her previous quest. Croy's dreams have become even more vivid and demanding. He must confront an old mentor, which he is hesitant to do. Trela must stave off ruling her realm to command the mission. The amount of warriors on the adventure has shrunk considerably from the army she amassed to become Queen, but she has graciously brought the most skilled with her. Vrric, one of the only mages known to have fought against a Tlana and lived, must bring his increasing powers to bear. There is little room for error against the forces stacked against them all.

The very mention of the word "poverty" is directly linked to inference of erosion, limitation, and spiritual blindness. The adoption of poverty as a mindset be it knowingly or unconsciously, produces disdain for ingenuity and hard work, or faith in one's ability to reach higher gains when those most affected by it cannot see themselves doing any better. Subliminally, through gifting of government subsidizes the mindsets of millions are conditioned to accept being an afterthought isn't as bad as some say when their bellies are full, taking a hot shower is commonplace, access to healthcare and housing are also part of their living threads of existence. Even though it is at the lowest quality, the conditioning is so severe most cannot recognize the paralysis because there is some level of provision.Even Malcolm X highlighted the blight of the Negro as being caught up in social wars controlled by politics; Liberals vs Conservatives and not much has changed. In fact, the liberal agenda has the largest budget that does not have an end date nor room enough to accommodate the very populace it claims to represent. It can only mean one thing, "No representation."The very agencies run by erudite CEOs funded by scholarly politicians represents the essence of what a secret society looks like in plain sight and the oversight.
