Book Description
The zombie apocalypse was years ago-old hat. Besides, there's a cure and plenty of bullets yet to take care of the rotting stragglers. The threats these days are the survivors. Charlotte Heiman is a young woman who has achieved a stable life in the remains of Killeen as a zombie hunter but can't stay any longer. She hasn't seen her little brother Blake since her family dropped him off at camp that fateful summer, but now that she has the supplies, she's headed his way. Meanwhile, Arthur Deering has achieved his own stable life in a rural home, with no companions besides his bow and arrows. He has long since come to believe that he's the only man alive-so it comes as quite a shock when Charlotte finds him. Quite an infatuating shock, as a matter of fact. Although Arthur turns out to be much more of a suitor than a menace, he's not the only survivor Charlotte meets. It's a long walk to Hunt, filled with those who lost everything and aren't afraid to take whatever they can. It will take Charlotte and Arthur both to get past survivors that threaten to take their supplies, bodies, and lives.

Book Description
Winner of the Parliamentary Book Award, best memoir by a Parliamentarian, 2016 From the condemned slums of Southam Street in West London to the corridors of power in Westminster, Alan Johnson’s multi-award-winning autobiography charts an extraordinary journey, almost unimaginable in today’s Britain. This third volume tells of Alan’s early political skirmishes as a trades union leader, where his negotiating skills and charismatic style soon came to the notice of Tony Blair and other senior members of the Labour Party. As a result, Alan was chosen to stand in the constituency of Hull West and Hessle, and entered Parliament as an MP after the landslide election victory for Labour in May 1997. But this is no self-aggrandizing memoir of Westminster politicking and skulduggery. Supporting the struggle of his constituents, the Hull trawlermen and their families, for justice comes more naturally to Alan than do the byzantine complexities of Parliamentary procedure. But of course he does succeed there, and rises through various ministerial positions to the office of Home Secretary in 2009. In The Long and Winding Road, Alan’s characteristic honesty and authenticity shine through every word. His book takes you into a world which is at once familiar and strange: this is politics as you’ve never seen it before…

Book Description
This is a book on how the U.S. and other governments have changed their thinking about energy issues over the past four decades, a change triggered by increasing concern about the role of fossil fuels in global warming and climate change, greater awareness of the risks of nuclear power, and the emergence of viable renewable energy sources. It will help understanding of how this change came about in the United States from the unique perspective of a well-placed participant and observer. It will enhance understanding of the global energy transition that is finally getting underway in the second decade of the 21st century at an accelerating, even dizzying, pace. The book’s main purpose is to illustrate how the U.S. government moved along its winding path to where it is today in getting ready for a renewable energy future. Target audiences are the young people who will inherit the transition and shape its future, those in government who currently shape our public policies, and those colleagues, friends, and family members who lived through many of the times and events discussed in the book.

Pentecost! I might have wished that I had never heard the word. In my entire life, nothing else has affected me more profoundly, caused me more anguish, or consumed me more completely than Pentecost! I loved it. I hated it. It shaped me. It destroyed me. It saved me. One way or the other, Pentecost is the story of my life. And I still believe. It has been a LONG WINDING ROAD.
