Book Description
Why? The simple question asked by Ravenhawk, the creation of a corrupt corporation used to covertly infiltrate and steal data—or lives—at her creator’s orders resulted in the synth escaping their control. Unsure what her purpose for existence was, she nevertheless wielded her considerable combat abilities to cost those hunting her dearly. Viktor Chernovich, in desperate need of a webrunner to keep his reputation as a fixer from utter destruction, reaches out to the infamous "murder-bot" to hire her. With embedded technology so ubiquitous that lacking it is considered treasonous, Ravenhawk is perplexed confronting her first pure human. Together, they discover something even more terrible than the insidious corruption of the world governments by corporations.

Book Description
Where is the line between being real and being synthetic? In a world run by corrupt corporations and a government that has decreed all humans must have artificial intelligence implants or synthetic parts, pure humans are on the verge of becoming extinct. Even pets aren’t safe as they are subjected to the same decree. As the government continues to outlaw any pure human without any artificial intelligence, Cybercorps Corporations’ synthetic human hybrid Ravenhawk and her pure-human companion Viktor Chernovich are determined to put a stop to this practice and have joined forces with Caïssa’s Gambit, a secret group that aims to rid the world of governmental control. When Viktor’s past threatens their future, Ravenhawk must contend with her synthetic and human intelligence as she struggles to come to terms with her human side known as Sara. Will humankind survive or will the human race finally become replaced with artificial intelligence?

Does turning our emotions and memories “inside out” tell us who we are? What can Toy Story and Wall-E teach us about being human? Is hakuna matata really such a problem-free philosophy? If you’ve ever asked who you are, what is right, or what your purpose is, Disney and Philosophy will spark your curiosity and imagination with a whole new world of unexpected insight into the Magic Kingdom.

Book Description
Can you actually avoid fate? You, along with millions of others, probably do it every day by following ... superstitions! Dodging black cats. Walking around an open ladder. Sidestepping cracks in the sidewalk. Each foretells calamity if you do not follow the rules of superstition. Have you mastered your own destiny by practicing these old myths? Or not? From the origins of the most popular and obscure beliefs and old wives’ tales to the songs that have been written about them, author Toni Klein (Passport to Heaven’s Angelic Messages, Fairies, Ian Greets The World) takes a fascinating look at the superstitions that guide our daily lives and why we observe them so unquestioningly.
