Book Description
Laser-sharp zingers and out-of-this-world puns pile up at an astronomical pace in this zero gravitas sci-fi spoof from the author of Witches Be Crazy. Never meddle with unidentified spying objects . . . The year is: The Future. Mars and Earth are like that divorced couple who don’t exactly like each other but have at least stopped fighting in public. Floating somewhere in between them, amid all the garbage and Gene Roddenberry’s ashes, a transport vessel called the SS Jefferson is homeward bound. Its crew might have even made it on time for once, too . . . Captain Cox is no stranger to encountering the odd pickle in space, but when a tantalizingly derelict ship crosses paths with the Jefferson, he unwittingly parks in the middle of a NASA-ty interplanetary squabble. Faced with a marauding Martian and a squad of snobby secret agents, Cox and crew embark on a mad scramble across the solar system, to save themselves from either murder-via-space rifle or imprisonment in the notorious Guantanamo Docking Bay. Maybe they’ll also get around to dealing with the biological weapon that accidentally wound up in their fridge, too. Logan J. Hunder’s Astro-Nuts in this riotously funny send-up of spaceships and space exploration. Discover adventure, love, loss, gain, losing what was gained, gaining some of it back, and all the different ways the Outer Space Treaty can be violated.

Book Description
BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

The Dragonstones of Acarnania
Author: Z. L. Penistan
Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing
ISBN: 1609767551
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
Soar into another land in an alternate dimension when you read The Dragonstones of Acarnania, the first book of a sensational new series for teens. Brant is a fourth generation wizard like no other. He has morals and he strives to do the right thing, despite his passions and ambitions. He sets out with his lifelong friend, Logan, to recover seven stolen dragonstones. Each dragonstone is a precious stone that contains the swirling image of the dragon inside. Logan, who has a distaste for just about everyone he meets, learns a valuable lesson in patience during this journey with Brant. They are joined on their quest by Zeata, a beautiful and feisty healer. Zeata's self-determination and stubbornness is also put to the test. On their adventures, the three survive dragon attacks, gully dwarves, deceit and each other! Join this unlikely trio on a sometimes comical journey, where secrets are revealed and gully dwarves prove to be the most annoying of little creatures. Z. L. Penistan of Johnstown, New York, is working on Book Two of the Acarnania stories. She was inspired to write the series because "I've had firsthand dealings with bullying and I wanted to write a book that would appeal to teens with dragons and wizards, but also bring subtle messages into the story and make it entertaining. It seems that these days, teens and some adults have no tolerance for those who may be different." http: //SBPRA.com/ZLPenistan
