Wrath and Penance |
|
A Modern Day Story of Job |
|
By:
Randy Davis |
|
| Orphaned at a young age, Sam Nelson had strived his whole life to attain that which he wanted most; a family. And now husband to a loving wife and father to four young children, Sam was happy and content. It was the perfect life of a good man. Then one night Sam had a dream that exposed him to some of the great mysteries of heaven and though he couldn’t remember the dream after waking the next day, his rich full life would soon be over.
While on vacation with his family in San Antonio a few weeks later, the city is attacked by middle-eastern terrorists during the height of the annual week-long fiesta celebration. The terrorists explode four powerful bombs that kill tens of thousands attending the parades. As a result of the attack, Sam’s family is killed; he himself is gravely injured after selflessly trying to fight four heavily-armed men. Succumbing to his wounds, Sam lay in a coma for three long years. Upon awakening, the harsh reality of his loss pushes him to the brink of insanity and suicide. With the help of a kindly old man, Sam begins to heal only to find himself a pawn to the forces of good and evil. Learning that one of his children may have survived the attack, Sam with his new friend Ben, begin a search that reveals the wrathful nature of mankind as well as the humble penance that can also be ours. In an epic struggle between heaven and hell, the Creator calls upon Sam to fulfill a destiny he could never have imagined while Lucifer sees Sam as a tool that can finally provide him with the single victory over Heavenly Father he has always sought, and in the end, Sam may have no choice but to give Lucifer his prize.

The Control Sickness |
|
By:
Robert Black |
|
| Written in a similar style to Catch 22, Robert Black in his first novel has added a persistent dark cloud to a clever humorous satirical look at the New Zealand justice system and laws seen through the eyes of a young barrister: "BUT as he started to drive home he changed his mind. He drove up the hilly coastal dirt road and parked overlooking the sea below him. He waited until the last remnants of light died. He got out of the car, climbed over the wire fence and walked a short distance to the edge of the cliff. This part of the cliff was well known, as occasionally people would commit suicide there by jumping. Below him, the ocean roared and foamed white against the blackness. And it occurred to him then, sadly, that those brave souls who jumped had been mistaken, that the ocean would not have cared about their demise at all, not even blinked, though that may have been their last dying wish.
But why had they jumped? Flint said suicide was the only true crime, as it was the only unnatural act that a human being was capable of doing. In such a simple, beautiful country as New Zealand, why did so many people take their own lives? Especially young ones? Perhaps Dodds was right. Maybe there were too many controls, too many laws, too many restrictions on our behaviour. In such a small population, was it too hard to say what we really felt and do what we really wanted to do? Maybe it was like a sickness, as he had said，a control sickness." The author is a lawyer with nearly ten years of criminal defence and family law experience in New Zealand. This novel, written by a lawyer, gives the reader a rare insight into the true world of criminal law, the lawyers, judges and police.
It also deals with the sad realities that family lawyers face:
"IN child custody cases the welfare of the child was paramount. At the end of a case the prize for the jubilant parent was day to day care of the child. A fucked up child, but still a child. A perfect mould for their flesh and blood. But far from a whole person. The wounds and scars were easily observed by anyone who cared to look except the applicant and respondent. Each parent had their own special brand of poison invisible ink that splintered like glass and sliced red beneath the soft skin and trusting eyes."
At last a down to earth lawyer has ripped down the pretentious veils of mystery that lawyers and judges hide behind and written an entertaining, satirical, chillingly truthful book, that exposes them painfully close to the core. Read more |

| Sword of Fyre is the story of Gabryela, a girl who, when abandoned by her father, must uncover the truth of his disappearance and face down the fire within her. Gabryela is the daughter of the local blacksmith in the small town of Paelin. One night, her father leaves with the promise to return, but no sooner has he left before Gabby's house burns down and she finds herself hunted. She searches for her father, her every move forced by the people relentlessly searching for her. Her view of the world moves from simple to complicated and confusing; her best friend is a thief who stands to die for his crimes, she is beginning to start fires when her emotions get the best of her, and she struggles to define the line between defending herself and harming others. Armed only with her father's final gift to her, a sword he crafted that has strange power all on it's own, Gabby discovers a world of Ancient, immortal beings alongside the human world, a war that will define the fate of both worlds, and two kings that could hold her life in the balance. She learns her father wasn't the man she thought he was and with that knowledge comes massive burdens for her shoulders.

A Fright A Day |
|
By:
Judith Thomson |
|
| Sailing around some of the most isolated and treacherous coasts in the world is challenging enough for experienced mariners. When we set out from Sydney Harbour to sail 6,500 nautical miles around the north of Australia and down the wild west coast to Fremantle to make the most of our retirement, we were told we were marvellously brave or absolutely mad . . . we had no ocean sailing experience, we had not sailed through squalls, overnight or alone into unfamiliar anchorages.
By extreme good luck, we chose Aurora III, a small proven yacht that had circumnavigated the world. And with a brief study of coastal navigation and meteorology and advice soaked up from trusted sailors, we prepared our little ship and set out. One piece of advice became our mantra: “If the weather’s not right, don’t go.”
This is the story of our two-year voyage: the exhilaration, the frights, the friends we made along the way, our struggle to complete the undertaking, and the enormous sense of achievement. It is a story of a journey in our relationship, a move away from our habitual behaviour and the shift in our perspective of the world, the sea and wild places.
The book includes a list of favourite books for your onboard library and a check-list for choosing your ideal cruising yacht. Click here to see more from the author and listen to her speak about her voyage http://bookhabit.com/newsdetail.php?nid=31 Read more |

The Fake Celebrity In China |
|
By:
Robert Black |
|
| Written in the customary Robert Black flavour of darkness, a debaucherous, no holds barred tale of booze, sex, drugs and prostitutes in China, as a Kiwi English teacher stumbles from place to place and adventure to adventure, drunkenly navigating his way through early stages of culture shock. This is is a hard hitting controversial book exposing many of the truths about China, the mainland Chinese, their culture and thinking.
From teaching in Shenyang to being holed up in his apartment during SARS time in Beijing, to beautiful coconut beaches and sexual debauchery in tropical Hainan Island.
Fans of Charles Bukowski should enjoy this book but be warned it is not for the squeamish or easily offended. This is no touchy-feely travel book:
"ONE morning you wake up feeling dead. You are thirty-five. Single. Lonely. The dreams you had as a boy never came true. Your mind, body, soul and spirit have been savaged by years of drugs and alcohol and sin. You sweat for no reason. You cannot remember the last time you felt good. Or the last time you really laughed. You had the girl then you lost her. Then you had another and lost her too.
You despise most human beings. This is nothing new. But now you realise with horror, that you have become one of the very crawling abominations that used to nauseate you, and that every word uttered from your lips over the last few years was bullshit. And not even real bullshit. Weak, watered down bullshit. But you believed it because you were too lazy and lifeless to bother to think.
Years ago you had the secret. You knew about purity. About love and power. But, day by day, it all slipped away. This morning when you look at your tired, hung over flesh in the mirror and study the lines of disappointment and failure, you know you can no longer call yourself a good person. God has you on your knees, but you still fight him.
You are desperate. You need friends. You need clean air and beaches and solitude. You need a cold night in a country cottage, with the sound of heavy icy rain on the roof, a log fire burning, and a beautiful girl who loves you, curled up next to you, purring like a kitten.
But the last woman who agreed to sleep with you wanted money and, like a nightmare, like the worst joke anyone has ever played on you, you remember. It is hot. It is dirty. There are mosquitoes. There are lies and there is money. You are in Shenyang and this is China.
Fuck China, fuck the world, fuck life, fuck yourself, fuck anything if it helps!"
Reading this novel it is easy to see Robert Black has matured as a writer and found his voice. A compelling second novel and follow up to The Control Sickness.

The Olympian |
|
By:
Peter Templeton Neale |
|
| Dear Mr Neale I am writing to inform you about the qualities of your book, The Olympian. It was very enjoyable, and I'm sure it will be a giant success. The Olympian was indeed a brilliant tale. it had precise doses of action, emotion, and adventure. The sentences were perfectly built, and flowed into one another, like a tributary into a river. I'm sure that people would read it over and over again just to refresh their minds with your fascinating story. I very much liked the mystery of the void and the diamonds, and most certainly was happily surprised by many a twist. The characters were so realistic they could of actually existed. I loved the way you get into their emotions and show their feeling with description. I very much enjoyed the part where it got complicated because there were 2 Joeys. And it was clever how you turned Ivo into their other cat, plus the belief room was ingenious. I wish I had one! The only problem with your superb book is that once I didn’t get why a word was in the place it was. Other than that it was totally flawless. Over all your book is impeccable and, if I were a publisher, would pay £1000 for The Olympian. Thankyou for letting me read it.
Yours truly Daniel Read more |

The Last Rose |
|
By:
Denese Wyatt |
|
| In 1939, the winds of war herald dramatic changes in the lives of Welsh school girl Elizabeth Davies and young Australian David Rogers.
Elizabeth enjoys an idyllic life and all the privileges that wealth can offer, but with the outbreak of war, her safe and secure world disintegrates. Meanwhile, David’s family has always struggled to make a meagre living and he sees the declaration of war as a chance to join the forces and experience a life of adventure. Instead, he discovers only death and destruction.
Amid the hell of the London Blitz, David and Elizabeth meet and after narrowly escaping death they decide to marry. Following the declaration of peace, Elizabeth begins her new life in Australia, but instead of the exotic love nest she had envisaged, she encounters isolation, poverty and depression and she struggles to come to terms with the undemonstrative, often violent Aussie culture. Just when the future looks bright, tragedy strikes and it is not until an old school friend makes an unexpected visit, that doors open to a world Elizabeth could never have imagined. The Last Rose is inspired by true events. Read more |

By:
Sibel Hodge |
|
| Is it really possible to change your life in fourteen days? When accident-prone Helen Grey finds a thong stuffed into the pocket of her boyfriend’s best work trousers, it’s time for her to move on. His excuse that he needed to dust the photocopier and just thought that it was a rag, sounds like a lame excuse.

To try a completely new experience every day to gain more confidence and so – hopefully – unleash a new world of possibilities.
From a nude art class to speed-dating, a healthy eating club to singles’ night shopping, and a hen night with Hell’s Angels, Helen meets quirky and unusual characters she just wouldn’t normally come across. But the last thing she expects is a crazy mobster stalker. And just when she thinks things can’t get any worse, along comes Ayshe’s brother. Read more |

This House Divided |
|
A novel based on a true story of multiple personality disorder |
|
By:
Sukie Lang & David Haggith |
|
| In 1979 Sukie and Chris Lang adopted a baby girl in Seoul, Korea, not knowing she was probably one or two years older than her birth certificate stated. From the moment the couple first held the child, she was lethargic and weak, and showed signs of an eating disorder. As the years progressed, her behavior became more erratic and difficult to understand with wild stories of abuse that didn’t seem possible. Thinking their daughter was possessed, the Langs turned toward their church for help. After several failed exorcisms and suicide attempts, they took the child to a psychologist who diagnosed her as having Multiple Personality Disorder.
This House Divided is the narrative account of the Lang’s true experience. Unable to find a psychologist who could take her child on as a long-term client, Sukie became concerned that Karmie’s bewildering disorder would become even more complicated as she continued to develop new personalities. So, Sukie dropped her career in the financial world and pursued a Master of Arts in Counseling in order to become her own daughter’s counselor.
This House Divided is an intensely emotional mother-daughter drama about a family that cracks under stress, then pulls together under a new and unusual definition of family. It is a story of religious faith maturing from reliance on pat answers into a deep and healing strength. And, in the end, it is a story about healing from MPD. Read more |

Meet Your Neighbors |
|
By:
Emma Swift |
|
| This book is made up of vignettes about people I have met in cyberspace and at S&M clubs between 1988 and 1996 in and around Los Angeles, California. If you saw these people on the street, you wouldn't give them a second glance. They look and act like ordinary men and women. They are like you. They are like your neighbors. They may be your neighbors. These people come from all walks of life and include lawyers, psychologists, film writers,college professors and school teachers, newspaper reporters, small business owners, office workers, construction workers and supermarket clerks. They share at least two things in common: they are kinky and their entire lives seemingly revolve around their sexual interests. I have become friendly with many of these people,and have had S&M sex with more than a few of them. The stories about them are true, although I have changed names and other identifying information to protect the guilty. For those readers who may find it hard to believe that these people really exist, remember the old saying, "Truth is stranger than fiction". However, if you are
a police officer or other agent of social control, and want to ask me
about any of these people, you must understand that they are all
figments of my imagination. They don't really exist. I know nothing
about anything. I'm more than a little senile, and if really pushed, I'll take the Fifth. Furthermore, any similarities to people, living or dead,is purely coincidental. Read more |
