Book Description
Wil Wheaton--blogger, geek, and Star Trek: The Next Generation's Wesley Crusher--gives us five short-but-true tales of life in the so-called Space Age in Dancing Barefoot. With a true geek's unflinching honesty, Wil examines life, love, the web, and the absurdities of Hollywood in these compelling autobiographical narratives. Based on pieces first published in Wil's hugely popular blog, www.wilwheaton.net, the stories in Dancing Barefoot chronicle a teen TV star's journey to maturity and self-acceptance. Far from the usual celebrity tell-all, Dancing Barefoot is a vivid account of one man's version of that universal story, the search for self. If you've ever fallen in love, wondered what goes on behind the scenes at a Star Trek convention, or thought hard about the meaning of life, you'll find a kindred soul in the pages of Dancing Barefoot. In the process of uncovering his true geeky self, Wil Wheaton speaks to the inner geek in all of us. The stories: Houses in Motion - Memories fill the emptiness left within a childhood home, and saying goodbye brings them to life. Ready Or Not Here I Come - A game of hide-n-seek with the kids works as a time machine, taking Wil on a tour of the hiding and seeking of years gone by. Inferno - Two 15-year-olds pass in the night leaving behind pleasant memories and a perfumed Car Wars Deluxe Edition Box Set. We Close Our Eyes - A few beautiful moments spent dancing in the rain. The Saga of SpongeBob VegasPants - A story of love, hate, laughter and the acceptance of all things Trek.

The King of Heart
Author: H. J. Stellian
Publisher: Virtualbookworm Publishing
ISBN: 9781589392618
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 508
Book Description
"The King of Heart" is an allegory of the Bible in fairytale/fantasy form. Although not intended for children, the form chosen for this work is used in the same manner as traditional folk tales were used to pass on eternal truths to others whilst remaining hidden from materialistic scrutiny. Clearly, this novel isn't so subtle as to its source, but may well enlighten the reader as to how the Bible develops and its overall message to mankind. As one journeys through the novel, the reader may become aware of how the level of consciousness gently rises through centuries and continues right into our immediate future. In its pages, the reader will enjoy mystery, drama, suspense, action and humor. The novel is in seven parts: 1. The Beezle Affair (The fall of Satan) 2. The Mountain Children (The fall of Man) 3. Alomonia (The establishment of Israel) 4. Jesse (The Christ story) 5. The Fishcart (The rise and decline of the Church) 6. Rocky (The last Pope or spiritual leader) 7. King Beezle (Reign of Anti-Christ, concluding with the second coming of Christ).
