Joined by a stranded Chinese tourist, The Supinator sets out to right injustice and protect the weak on the dangerous streets of downtown DC. The world is about to witness the madness of a modern knight errant. But will that madness prove to be a miracle? As smaller crimes roll into a more terrible plot than anyone suspected, DC just might realize it sorely needs just such a hero! (#3 in the Tangled Eons, but also a completely stand-alone story)

Book Description
How do you hold on to hope when you’re being repeatedly wrenched between worlds? College student Bailey Jones is plucked from his world by a mysterious and unpredictable force known as the Rift, which appears to move people at random from one world to another. Stranded on an alien planet, he is relieved when he meets a fellow human, the self-styled Riftmaster, who is prepared to assist him. Although curious about his new companion’s real identity, Bailey hopes that, with years of experience of the Rift, this cosmic traveller can help him find a way to return to Earth. But first, as the two of them are ripped without warning from one hostile planet to another, Bailey must rely on the Riftmaster to show him how to survive. Riftmaster, an adventure, an exploration, is concerned with loss, and letting go, while still holding onto your humanity and identity, even when life seems hopeless. Cover art: Miles Nelson

The Gospel of Buddha
Author: Paul CarusPublisher: Jazzybee Verlag
ISBN: 3849678385
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
The best evidence that this book characterizes the spirit of Buddhism correctly can be found in the welcome it has received throughout the entire Buddhist world. It has even been officially introduced in Buddhist schools and temples of Japan and Ceylon. The eminent feature of the work is its grasp of the difficult subject and the clear enunciation of the doctrine of the most puzzling problem of tman, as taught in Buddhism. So far as we have examined the question of tman ourselves from the works of the Southern canon, the view taken by Dr. Paul Carus is accurate, and we venture to think that it is not opposed to the doctrine of Northern Buddhism.
