It's a Grimm Life
Cultures throughout the world have folktales that carry warnings hidden within. They illustrate what could happen if we surrender to our brutish nature. The first accounts can be found in the oral traditions of a people, passed from generation to generation, before pen touched paper. One of the most notable collections to be later recorded is Kinder- und Hausmarchen, translating to 'Children's and Household Tales', published by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm in 1812. The impact this project has had on all parts of our lives, and throughout the world, is nearly incomprehensible. It's a Grimm Life is a tribute to these resounding folktales from the past, placing them in a modern setting. Each story is germinated from a Grimm seed, embracing the darker side of humanity and the world that we know to exist in the shadows, just out of sight.
Ghosts of Their Fathers
Abe is a Holocaust survivor who suffers from post-traumatic stress. His visions and dreams recount his loving father who was killed by the Nazis during the Holocaust. Now he believes the ghost of a martyred priest is asking him to protect a certain cathedral and its pastor. Monk, the pastor, is haunted by his failure to fulfill his mother’s expectations. He has memories of a father who abandoned him. He questions his “marriage” to the Church and blames his father for his alcoholism and other moral lapses. This homeless Jewish man and despondent Catholic priest share their spiritual values and establish a deep connection. Juanita, a Mexican psychologist-combatant and undocumented immigrant, complicates their efforts. She works for Special Forces at Homeland Security and uncovers a plot to cripple the Catholic Church and destroy an ancient cathedral. Now, Abe and Monk have two weeks to combat malevolent forces and save the Church. Can these anguished souls, with the help of ghostly protectors, save themselves, or will their suffering drown them both?

I Told You So
A Collection of short stories from the creative mind of Steve Sloane
Sex and the Shield
In this exciting autobiography, Steve Stanulis, a former male dancer that became a decorated New York City police officer, tells a tale filled with wild sex, street cop action, pathos and hilarity. This amazing-but-true tale alone would make it a stand apart must read. That said, consider what happens when you add a little item called "celebrity security" as the cherry to the top of an already tasty narrative mix (male stripper/big city police procedural). Sitting up? Here's more: moonlighting while still on the NYPD, Steve's role was to mingle with the stars, keeping things festive while maintaining a watchful eye. This access along with his real guy charm and movie star good looks led to many nights when he was every bit the naughty reveler as were his high-profile clients. The story doesn't end there either, as Steve would eventually leave the force to become a noted film and stage actor and producer in his own right. The fact that Steve has finally decided to tell his one-of-a-kind life story is already starting to generate a buzz. You'll feel the excitement too, page after page!
Really!?
Facts, facts, facts! We are surrounded by facts: some strange, some horrific, some unbelievable, and some funny. Those facts make us who we are. Humans are a curious species and we all want to know the truth. Astronomy, animals, plants, the human body, science, history, people, war, and the Earth are all interesting subjects about which most of us know very little. This book contains many known facts that you probably didn’t know before, but will make you say, “Really!?” Did you know that our galaxy, the Milky Way, and our nearest neighbour, the Andromeda Galaxy, are on a collision course? But not to worry, the two galaxies won’t collide for about four billion years. Really!?
