From the Ashes
In the early years of the 21st century, the world was rapidly going to Hell...and Ben Walker was determined not to go down easy. From his tiny community of Paradise, Ben and Jesse--his younger brother--tried to keep a spark of civilization alive so that one day, like the legendary Phoenix, a new world might spring up from the ashes of the old... But there were those among the remnants of the old world who were not as anxious as the Walkers for the return of a civilized world. And they would stop at nothing to thwart the plans of Paradise. Two reluctant heroes must therefore join forces to save their world in a world torn apart... This is the first world-wide printing of this prophetic novel.
The Ultimate Selection
In a large city, it's easy to remain anonymous, be careful who you talk to... The Ultimate is London's slickest vigilante. He is almost invisible; silently creeping around the capital, looking for wrongs to right. After overhearing a man bragging about abusing his girlfriend, The Ultimate has his first victim and is spurred into irrevocable action. Once he starts, he can't stop. He leaves no trace and is careful not to be the one with blood on his hands. His role is only to dictate how his targets will meet their demise. Nothing seems to link him to the crime or the dead. As his reign gathers pace, The Ultimate forces a clueless New Scotland Yard to pull former topdog detective turned reporter, Terry Bane, out of his TV studio and back to the force. He teams up with his old crimefighting partner, DCI James McFarland, only to be sent on a cat and mouse chase. Will they ever be able to catch the man who leaves no clues?
Brian Donlevy, the Good Bad Guy
Brian Donlevy (1901-1972) was an underrated film actor with surprising range and a little-heralded gift for comedy. Often typecast as a villain, he played the definitive bad guy in such films as Destry Rides Again, Union Pacific and Beau Geste (all in 1939). He showed his versatility in the title role of Preston Sturges' political satire The Great McGinty (1940) and impressed both New York critics and the Soviet government as the cooly authoritative Major Caton in Wake Island (1942). Donlevy was fondly remembered as globe-trotting U.S. Special Agent Steve Mitchell in the television series Dangerous Assignment (1952) and as Professor Quatermass in two acclaimed science fiction films. This first ever biography of Donlevy covers his colorful early life as a boy soldier, his years playing comedy roles on Broadway and his long career in Hollywood.

Brotherhood of Fire
A small rural fire department in North Idaho has only four full-time members, a chief, and an office manager. The district relies heavily on volunteers to provide a proper service to the rural community. The chief is relatively new, anticipating this fire district would operate at a much slower pace than the one he came from in southern California, but he was sadly mistaken. Malfunctioning equipment and insufficient funds to conduct the repairs started resulting in loss of buildings and loss of life. Chief Keeting had seen plenty of that in California, including loss of his own new wife and unborn child when his house burned down while he was gone on a job interview. He was just out of engin...
