She was no ordinary woman. She was beautiful and irresistible. And yet she had a deformity, a mutation, which compelled her to take any man who aroused her, latch onto him with her legs around his face, subdue him with her narcotic secretions, and ride him until his life was taken from him to fill the aching void in her womb. The police would find her eventually, but would that be an end to it?

The reverberations of the rifle shots that killed four students on May 4, 1970 echoed across the nation and beyond. Nowhere, perhaps, did they echo with more persistence and poignancy than at the place where it happened, the Kent State University campus. For more than ten years the university's name has been a symbol of the Sixties protest movements as the causes of the event were debated, lawsuits embroiled participants and victims, and concerned people struggled for appropriate means for...

This is a true story of faith, hope, and love that happened to two average people who came from small towns in Iowa, the heartland of America. God has blessed both of us with miracles, time and again, asking nothing in return except for love and reverence for Him. This is our testimony. As we look back at our lives, it often becomes clear that God intervened, at times and in ways that we did not understand. His plans for us aren't always or even very often understood, but they are always p...

There can really be no excuse for this last book of trite and beautiful sayings. I do not attempt, in any way, to palliate this great wrong. I would not do so even if I had an idea what palliate meant. It will, however, add one more to the series of books for which I am to blame, and the pleasure of travel will be very much enhanced, for me, at least. There is one friend I always meet on the trains when I travel. He is the news agent. He comes to me with my own books in his arms, and tells...

Skills, power, prestige—Gongja’s got things he could only dream of in the previous timeline. None of that, however, comes close to the recognition of the great five guild leaders as well as the tentative trust of the strongest hunter in the Tower—all of them people who, despite their constant bickering, clearly care deeply about their fellow hunters and without whom society would crumble. That’s why Gongja’s determined to ensure their safety by singlehandedly paving the way to the twentiet...
