Book Description
Lois Phillips Hudson is recognized as a major chronicler of America's agricultural heartland during the grim years of the Great Depression. Reapers of the Dust, now reprinted for a new generation of readers, vividly evokes that difficult time. From Hudson's childhood in North Dakota spring these unusual, moving stories of simple, joyful days, of continuing battles with hostile elements, and of a family's new life as migrant workers on the West Coast. "Hudson writes with grace and beauty and an abiding understanding of the meaning of those bitter, tragic years."--Chicago Tribune "These tales are to 'discomfit civilization,' in the tradition of personal accounts of the settling of the West by such writers as Mari Sandoz, Wallace Stegner, and Walter Van Tilburg Clark."--The Nation

Book Description
The Great Plains has long been fertile ground for literature. The Nature of the Place is a comprehensive study of novels and stories by such Plains writers as Willa Cather, Wright Morris, Mari Sandoz, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Frederick Manfred, Wallace Stegner, and Bess Streeter Aldrich. Throughout, Diane Dufva Quantic is aware of the region’s collective social and cultural history—aware of the immensely fruitful clash between that complex history and Plains myth (such as “Garden of the World” and “Great American Desert”). In the vast and changeable Great Plains, as Wright Morris once remarked, “Many things would come to pass, but the nature of the place would remain a matter of opinion.”

Book Description
Miles Lechler is nothing special. Like a million other highschoolers, he spends his days blissfully unaware of the comings and goings of life, absorbed in his own world of school, football and crushes. That is, until one rainy afternoon, when a fatal car accident changes what he thought he knew about death. Lance is a predator. A prodigy of the reapers, a sect of human souls overseen by the angels themselves, Lance mercilessly hunts the recently departed, dutifully carrying them onwards to paradise. That is, until one rainy night, when a rogue burst of spiritual power changes what he thought he knew about life after death. Now Lance, or as he was once called, Miles, must move quickly, fighting in both the physical and spiritual realms against nightmarish creatures born of sin, ancient demons hungering for pain, and perhaps most frighteningly, a growing hatred for humanity bred within the angels themselves. The fate of both worlds hangs in the balance.
