In this compendium, you will find poems that are not too long, that will encourage you to read and enjoy poetry. Delightfully entertaining, humorous short stories. Quirky, innovative and thought-provoking observational prose. And a set of five pieces of written work that the author - so far - has not been able to, or does not want to classify, for want of a superlative title. Nigel says, "All of my works mentioned above are helping you to escape from the hell of the modern media world, which you are now, unfortunately, standing in up to and over your head." This, Mr. Wilson's second book, Straining Your Psyche Through the Veil, like his first book, Stories for All the Children of All the Worlds, is yet another perfectly fitting key to the unlocking of the door of escapism. "With my books, I'm pulling you up and away from out of the modern-day brainwashing swamp of the media." "Enter and close the door of escapism behind you by opening my book, and now that you have escaped, lock it, by reading and turning the pages!" To paraphrase and quote Nigel again: "The book that is now in your hands is your ticket fully out of here. And so, it is worth more than every penny. I hope that this for you is naturally and unnaturally clear, And doubt that that goes for the many."

Already a bestseller in France where it was nominated for several literary prizes, this brilliant theological thriller asks--and answers--perhaps the most compelling question there is: "What if God's existence was proven, undeniably and irrefutably?"

This is a revision of my first book. I wanted it to be a smaller, handier book to hold and carry (pocket-sized). It's full of Yorkshire humor and I hope this gives a respite from the serious poems. Above all I hope you like it and thanks to all my friends who supported me whilst writing it.

To An Untrained Mind is a collection of short stories, poems and articles by Robert N Stephenson. These are works written over a 20 year period and have never before been seen, or published. These are imperfect appearances, there are faults with them all, from spellings to typos, from accidents in science and the limitations of knowledge. This book was not created to wow the reader with its prowess but more created to warehouse decades of material. If you have a copy, then you do indeed have a rare bird. Like the old Saab's Robert loves to own and drive, this book is also limited. Severe mental illness has distorted some visions and limited some expressions but never let you be controlled by such conditions, rather take control of them and thrive. The cover for this volume of imperfections is by the incomparable Conny Valentina and inside the image is another story. Rejoice in discovery, and forgive in measure.

A brand new series from New York Times bestselling author Chloe Neill. Seven years ago, the Veil that separates humanity from what lies beyond was torn apart, and New Orleans was engulfed in a supernatural war. Now, those with paranormal powers have been confined in a walled community that humans call the District. Those who live there call it Devil's Isle. Claire Connolly is a good girl with a dangerous secret: she’s a Sensitive, a human endowed with magic that seeped through the Veil. Claire knows that revealing her skills would mean being confined to Devil’s Isle. Unfortunately, hiding her power has left her untrained and unfocused. Liam Quinn knows from experience that magic makes monsters of the weak, and he has no time for a Sensitive with no control of her own strength. But when he sees Claire using her powers to save a human under attack—in full view of the French Quarter—Liam decides to bring her to Devil’s Isle and the teacher she needs, even though getting her out of his way isn’t the same as keeping her out of his head. As more and more Sensitives fall prey to their magic, and unleash their hunger on the city, Claire and Liam must work together to save New Orleans, or else the city will burn…

Declan is on a vital mission, but after he’s detoured by an ambush and subsequent crash, he must learn a whole new way of life and recover his memories. Pish wants power, and he doesn’t care who gets hurt along the way. Chris was a regular kid who grew up to be a regular guy, until he found out that he wasn’t. From his birth, he was chosen or maybe volunteered. Either way, he has a purpose greater than he ever imagined. And time may be running out.
