Book Description
In a world no longer blessed with virtue, there remains a place among the moving icebergs, cradled between the twilight of dreams, yet hidden from the nightmare of man. It is a sanctuary that has miraculously clung to its innocence, a faraway place, a place called SEALSSONG. A dying girl is about to find out that there are more things in life to fear than death itself. Born with gifts beyond that of natural reasoning, young Emma finds herself spirited away by an evil relative desperately seeking out her angelic powers in order to fulfill a most diabolical prophecy. Her aunt Decara, a tear-stealing villainess on a dastardly quest to find a sacred teardrop housed inside a purple stone, possessing enormous powers, will first have to find one orphaned baby seal named Miracle, who must learn to survive in a fantastic world confronting deadly seal hunters and the bloodshed they bring. For it is he who now inherits the powerful, tear, and it is he whom Emma soon comes to realize—that she must kill!

Book Description
As legends go, it was one of the best, a Pawqua medicine woman, a sacred black panther and an orphaned girl all meet one fatefull night deep in the hollows of the Ozark Mountains. Myths, magic, life, death, love and loss intertwine. Was Hazel a witch or a miracle worker? Miracle from the Mountain is a love stroy of a different kind. Hazel is a kind, loving character, but with a strong mind and body. The author has a talent for characterization. Even the secondary characters are well developed. The plot is facsinating. It captured my attention from the first page and held it to the last. 4 out of 5 star rating Readers Favorite Review 05/09/2010 I just loved this book!

Book Description
For centuries prior to the development of an effective vaccination against rabies, the bite of a "mad" dog was linked to a horrific ailment marked by convulsions, an utter dread of swallowing liquids, uncontrollable thrashing, and even the tendency to bark and attempt to bite others-a horrid prelude to an agonizing death. Drawing on learned theories of medical practitioners and beliefs of the common people, The Bearer of Crazed and Venomous Fangs investigates the cultural mythology of the ailment known today as rabies. By exploring the cultural history of science, traditional belief, and folk medicine, it reveals the popular myths and learned delusions that came to define the disease. Among the arresting topics explored are the attribution of rabies to a worm beneath the tongue, the notion that the disease could arise spontaneously, the idea that it could be "cured" by the application to the wound of special stones or animal parts, and, if all else failed, the treatment of it by the suffocation of the human victim. Rich in detail and brimming with historical intrigue, The Bearer of Crazed and Venomous Fangs engages students of medicine and the history of science, veterinary studies, folklore, psychology, and anyone interested in how mankind's best friend could be thought of as its cruelest, fiercest enemy.

Book Description
No One will ever forget this prom! When the Prom Queen is brutally murdered at our vampire academy’s first dance, I find myself trapped in a living nightmare. Unless I can catch the killer within seven days, Alessandro, one of the most powerful night stalkers in the world, will expose my darkest secret to the entire supernatural world. As if that’s not enough pressure, someone has stolen a precious artifact from the student’s lair. I am told it is a potential catalyst for an all-out war between species if it falls into the wrong hands. With time ticking away and very little evidence to work with, I face insurmountable odds. Like I said--I’m living in a nightmare. It all began innocently enough when my students asked for permission to hold a Spring Dance. I am the administrator of Fangsters, a school for delinquent, teenage, vampires on the outskirts of Mystic Keep, a small town in the Pacific Northwest, housed in a renovated bordello, filled with secrets and scandals. A celebration seemed like a good idea to me at the time. Little did I know it would lead to murder. I have backup. There’s Onyx, my nemesis, who runs security and wants me gone; Leroy, the ruggedly handsome, werewolf enforcer who wants me to stay out of trouble; and my witch sisters and their supernatural cop husbands who never miss an opportunity to lecture me. Whether any of these people can help me is questionable. My name is Rebel Black. I never imagined I would be pulled into the dark, and bloody world of the vampires because of one little secret. Yet here I am, trying to solve a murder in the school of the rising dead. Welcome to my Mystic Keep World, where witches, warlocks, werewolves, and vampires coexist with norms. Fangs for the Memories is the third installment in the Fangsters series, a heart-pumping urban fantasy with a slow-burning romance. While it can be read as a standalone, it's best enjoyed after book one, Fangsters: The Novel, and book two, Fangs for the Bite. Brace yourself for non-stop drama and danger as you enter a supernatural realm unlike any other

Book Description
From sheepdogs to wombats to coyotes to jellyfish, animals serve important biological roles in the world. But those who love animals know there's more. We know our connection to other creatures is more than fur, scale, or feather deep. In Saints of Feather and Fang, writer and lifelong animal lover Caryn Rivadeneira looks at the ways that animals--from the pets who share our homes to the mysterious creatures of the deep--serve as spiritual guides for our hearts, minds, and souls. Christian scripture teems with mammals, birds, and reptiles, and research on animals' sensory responses suggests that we not only care for our beloved animals but they, at times, care for us. A therapy pony who visits stroke victims, a rescued pit bull who shows restraint, hedgehogs that scurry down highways made just for them: these stories offer entrŽe to tender, whimsical, and deeply theological reflection on creaturely delight, instinct, curiosity, adaptation, fear, and awe. In them we discover and connect with the God who beckons, rescues, and shelters us with stretched-out wings.
