Rylie and Arthish leave the School in hopes to find a safe haven for them to rest and grow stronger. However, in their travels they quickly begin to see the grotesque reality that is man. Being hunted by bounty hunters and forced to have death matches in this sick game, who’ll say that anyone will make it out alive. Even more unusual than the events Art and Rye find themselves forced into, are the absolutely strange and almost lunatic-like people they encounter. Some rather harmless in their own right. Others, quake the earth as they walk. With such a strange phenomenon in such an unknown place, how could they ever expect to win this sick game. A game in which invites only the most intelligent and strong people of the world. From all walks of life, they come. Heroic soldiers and commanders to petty thieves and wanted men. Warrior tribe members, cultists, secret groups of assassins and even secluded hermits. They all leave their home to participate in this Gyros Game, this guards game.

This is a book of all 55 poems I wrote when I was fourteen divided into chapters of times in my life. Each poem will have three backslashes when it’s done “///”. They cover many different topics including: sexual assault, self harm, suicide, love, healing, politics, and many more. You may not like every poem, that is totally okay!! If there is one you don’t like I would suggest just skipping it and going to the next page. All of these poems are real, all things, thoughts, or feelings I have seen, gone through, or felt. You are awesome. You are loved. Keep going. ~Chloe

At one point in the various forest tracks Mike is camping alone and gets a bought of malaria, delirium and all. Despite the danger and difficulties described there is no Conradian darkness. The forest and rivers are beautiful it’s the people that bring the problems.

This is the terrifying story of the most dangerous radical-right hate group to surface since the Ku Klux Klan first rode a century ago. The Silent Brotherhood attracted seemingly average citizens with their call for pride in race, family, and religion and their mission to save white, Christian America from a communist conspiracy. Here is how they became criminals and assassins in their effort to establish an Aryan homeland. 8-page photo insert.

In this bold interdisciplinary work, Geoffrey Galt Harpham argues that asceticism has played a major role in shaping Western ideas of the body, writing, ethics, and aesthetics. He suggests that we consider the ascetic as "the 'cultural' element in culture," and presents a close analysis of works by Athanasius, Augustine, Matthias, Grünewald, Nietzsche, Foucault, and other thinkers as proof of the extent of asceticism's resources. Harpham demonstrates the usefulness of his findings by deriving from asceticism a "discourse of resistance," a code of interpretation ultimately more generous and humane than those currently available to us.
