Creation Abomination
A brilliant research scientist, William Mears, is working on his thesis to receive his doctorate from the University of Southern California. The focus of his dissertation is to discover how to repair injuries to the human body that are considered to be irreparable leveraging adult stem cells. After many failures, he comes to the conclusion that the only way to truly repair these tissues is through the use of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). But these cells can't come from just any source - they need to be ESCs from the specific individual in need of healing. In other words, William needs to figure out a way to create a human embryonic clone. While William's intent is innocent and focused on the betterment of mankind, he has unknowingly opened up the door to a malevolent evil that reveals itself in ever increasing dreadful ways. Creation Abomination explores human ethical dilemmas in a fast-paced, high-tech story involving ingenious scientists, complex relationships and the battle between good and evil, bringing together realistic scenarios with the supernatural.

Keeping Poultry and Rabbits on Scraps
“Keeping Poultry And Rabbits On Scraps” is an extensively illustrated guide to keeping rabbits and chickens, with a special focus on doing so as cheaply as possible. The first half of the book explains how the maximum number of eggs can be obtained from the minimum amount of imported food, while the second half aims to give practical instructions and tips. This book will appeal to those with an interest in low-cost poultry keeping. Contents include: “Poultry Farming”, “Cuniculture (Rabbit Farming)”, “Eggs From Scraps”, and “Keeping Rabbits on Scraps”. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on poultry farming.
A Hollow Cup
A HOLLOW CUP recounts the murder of a beautiful young woman and the effort, twenty-five years later, to find her killer. The novel has three parts. In "The Island" we see the characters growing up in the segregated South. Like most of the book, it presents events from the perspective of the two main characters, Pete Johnson and Luke Stanley. Luke is the first black student to attend New Hope's all-white schools. He and Pete become "friends," a relationship that weaves the strands of the novel together. The "charmed" childhood of the white children is compared to the more turbulent lives of their black contemporaries. The social issues of the day - the milieu in which the book's characters are formed - are examined. "The Mainland" is the end of childhood. Set in 1966, it describes the events that usher Luke and Pete into "the sepia world of grown-ups." They still play children's games, but the harsh truths of life and death increasingly order their lives. "New Hope," at the beginning and end of the book, describes the present-day (1991) action. Pete and Luke, still scarred by the past, return to town to investigate the crime and discover the "truth."
Light This Candle
The definitive biography of Alan Shepard, America’s first man in space, with a new Foreword by Chris Kraft “One of the finest books ever written about the space program.”—Homer Hickan, author of Rocket Boys “A wonderful and gripping biography . . . meticulously reported in the best tradition of David Halberstam.”—Buzz Bissinger, New York Times bestselling author of Friday Night Lights Alan Shepard was the brashest, cockiest, and most flamboyant of America’s original Mercury Seven, but he was also regarded as the best. Intense, colorful, and dramatic, he was among the most private of America’s public figures and, until his death in 1998, he guarded the story of his life zealously. Light This Candle, based on Neal Thompson’s exclusive access to private papers and interviews with Shepard’s family and closest friends—including John Glenn, Wally Schirra, and Gordon Cooper—offers a riveting, action-packed account of Shepard’s life.
