Book Description
Marjorie Stelmach's new collection, The Angel of Absolute Zero, seeks to engage its readers in thoughtful reflection on our difficult times. The opening section of the book, entitled Canticle of Want, introduces the collection's governing characteristic: these poems want a lot. They ask us to view our damaged planet and acknowledge our complicity; to question "how it is we have come to this" and take heart in our wish to be more worthy; to accept suffering and loss and yet feel gratitude, expect joy. In short, these poems aspire to "teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom."

Book Description
Saving the dead isn't as simple as promised. It was supposed to be a standard routine...that is, until we discovered that I was the first Soldier of Light to receive visions of the souls' worst sins. The very sins that put them in the Dark Realm with the devil. Sins that are unforgivable. Hayden, my sexy guardian angel, tells me there are consequences if I don't save these lost souls. But how do I save souls that have committed such despicable acts, especially when I have to live through their death in order for them to move on? To make matters even more complicated, the devil believes he sees a darkness in me that matches his own. And to tell you the truth...I fear he may be right. Because each soul I must save makes me despise the world I'm forced to live in even more. The one silver lining keeping me grounded is Hayden, until I come face to face with a secret he's kept from me since the beginning. *** "An entertaining ride with great characters that pulls you in and makes you emotionally invested, whether you want to be or not." "A really well-written, romantic, and creative book that touches your heart. It will make your jaw drop at the end and wish you had the next book already." "Excellent writing with a compelling, unpredictable plot set against an intriguing and imaginative paranormal background."

Book Description
This book presents my view of God and his relationship to what he created. God is totally good and wants all people to turn from evil and live good lives, putting their trust in his Son Jesus. But making Jesus Lord and Master of our lives does not provide immunity against what naturally happens in a world that has gone bad. The Evil One has a strong foothold on Planet Earth and causes trouble by getting his followers to make bad things happen to good people. God's love for us is shown through his Comforter, who gathers us in his arms and carries us close to his heart. God also shows his love by providing a place for us in his Kingdom his Son Jesus will eventually reign over. God himself causes some disasters to remind us not to store up treasures on earth. We look upon birth defects, crippling diseases, painful mishaps, and torture in concentration camps as God's way to let us see what happens to those cast into outer darkness where there is suffering with no sympathy or relief. This book presents God as totally good and ready and willing to provide good things for us.
