Coming in March, 2010 from your favorite online or local bookstore,
Wyndano's Cloak, a fantasy novel
by A. R. Silverberry, is a tale of madness, friendship, and courage,
Wyndano's Cloak is an absorbing tale of the transformative
power of love and forgiveness, and the terrible consequences of
denying who you really are.
Jen has settled into a
peaceful life when a terrifying event awakens old fears—of being
homeless and alone, of a danger horrible enough to destroy her
family and shatter her world forever.
Jen is certain that
Naryfel, a shadowy figure from her past, has returned and is
concentrating the full force of her hate on Jen's family. But how
will she strike? A knife in the dark? An attack from her legions? Or
with the dark arts and twisted creatures she commands with sinister
cunning?Wyndano's Cloak may be Jen's only hope. If she can only
trust that she has what it takes to use it . . .

Biblical Freedom from Religious
Oppression (Featuring
the Every-Verse Method), by K. Scott Schaeffer, takes on those who
would pick and choose from Bible verses, using only those they can
claim support their beliefs. It's an interesting look at what the
Bible really says about many issues.
Dr. Walt Jesuncosky, Pastor,
Audobon, NJ, says in his back jacket notes, “A well-researched,
thought-provoking challenge to Christians to examine many long-held
beliefs in the light of the totality of Scripture.”

The Last Train to Dachau
by Robert B. Niklewicz
Based on the true story of the Miller family's efforts to survive ioccupied Poland during World War II. Follow the horrors and obstacles this Polish family faced and had to overcome, to not only to stay together but to stay alive.
It enables the reader to experience the ordeals of war endured by a family much like yours. You can place yourself in their situations and ask, "What would I have done?"
Robert B Niklewicz based the book on family stories he’s heard since childhood, mostly told by his mother, now 78 (she was 8 when the story begins), who told him, after reading the book, that it was like he was “standing beside her when the events happened.” Can’t get much closer than that.
Reading it as an editor, I often found myself working much longer and later than normal, because I was so caught up in the story. Highly recommended.
Available from www.authorhouse.com (best price), Amazon, Borders, and others.

Rumi and Self Psychology
(Psychology of Transquility)

White Coat Wisdom
by Steve Busalacchi www.whitecoatwisdom.com
Mr. Busalacchi is a veteran medical journalist who reported for
Wisconsin Public Radio for 15 years. His close relationships with
physicians led to extensive interviews with many doctors about how
they got into the profession, what medical school is like, how they
think about their work, and how they do it. The advice they offer is
as pertinent to prospective medical students and as it is to
patients. This should be required reading for anyone considering a
career in medicine, and for everyone with an interest in how their
doctors work, think, and advise. Highly recommended. |

No Perfect People, Please
by Dianne Asitimbay;
www.culturelinkpress.com
As if to
prove that no author should be type-cast, after writing What’s
Up, America? Diane Asitimbay has followed it up with a very
funny children’s book, No Perfect People, Please, with poems
(and illustrations) about 26 imperfect, but perfectly normal and
human kids—one for each letter of the alphabet. Every kid in school
will recognize these types, as will every adult who’s been to
school—and it should serve to remind us all that none of us are
perfect. Highly recommended.
