Category: Science Fiction

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Lydia Kalila, the Princess Royal of Mishnah, is forced into marriage with the son of her country’s mortal enemy for the sole purpose of producing an heir. Duty comes before personal choice for a princess, especially when her country has been at war for more than a thousand years. Lydia’s pregnancy removes her brother and new husband from their respective lines of succession, placing her yet unborn infant at the head of both queues. No one is happy about this, especially Lydia who dies during childbirth from wounds caused by the talon-like toenails of her very strange newborn son.

Grief stricken at the loss of his daughter, the Mishnese King hastily sends Senya, his infant grandson off to a decrepit inner city orphanage with the intent to retrieve him much later when things got sorted out. At the orphanage, Senya is protected by the invalid Sister Meri who instantly falls in love with the little fellow. She’s not bothered at all by his strange telekinetic and telepathic powers, flickering pupil-less silver eyes, or wicked clawed toenails. The House Father takes a shine to the lad too, and when Senya is six years old, he is summoned to the Father’s chamber. The Father ends up in flames, forcing Meri and Senya out into a snow storm running for their lives.

Thus begins the tale of Senya, a prince created to be king of a planet but tossed aside until his twelfth birthday when Lt. Taner, a Royal Guard detective is sent to retrieve him. It is unclear to all whether Senya is the product of something good or something evil, but in either case, it is very apparent that he is something more than just Lydia Kalila’s son.

*** Note to readers- This title contains graphic language, sexual situations and some violence. It is not intended for children or young teens.

Tea Cups & Tiger Claws, by Timothy Patrick, is free today in the Amazon Kindle store, and this book has received an average user rating of 4.3 out of 5 stars based 46 customer reviews.

Category: Thriller
 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

First comes the miracle and then comes the madness. The miracle is the birth of identical triplets, and the madness is all about money, of course. The year is 1916 and the rare occurrence of identical triplets turns the newborn baby girls into pint-size celebrities. Unfortunately, this small portion of fame soon leads to a much larger portion of greed, and the triplets are split up—parceled out to the highest bidders. Two of the girls go to live in a hilltop mansion. The third girl isn’t so lucky. She ends up with a shady family that lives in an abandoned work camp. That’s how their lives begin: two on top, one on the bottom, and all three in the same small town.

Identical in appearance and with the same blood in their veins, the sisters should have also shared united destinies. Instead, those destinies are thrown to the wind, and the consequences will be extreme. “Tea Cups & Tiger Claws” explores wealth and poverty, jealousy and conceit, and is ultimately a story about deadly ambition and how it will once again throw the sisters together. It’s a journey that spans fifty years, three generations, and the perilous gulf between the rich and the poor. Along the way, you’ll marvel at the opulence of a mansion where presidents are entertained, and you’ll walk cautiously through a shanty town that harbors the forgotten. So get ready for the unexpected, and let “Tea Cups & Tiger Claws” take you down the crooked byways of this captivating family saga.

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

More cherished than gold are the Jewels of Kinfairlie, and only the worthiest may fight for their love…The Laird of Kinfairlie has unmarried sisters, each a gem in her own right. And he has no choice but to see them all wed in haste.

Lady Madeline’s heart is not for sale…especially not to a notorious outlaw like Rhys FitzHenry. Yet Madeline’s hand has been sold, to none other than this battle-weary warrior with a price on his head. A more dutiful maiden might cede to the Laird’s command and meekly accept her fate, but Madeline has never been obedient. She decides to run away, though she never dreams that Rhys will pursue her. She does not expect this taciturn man to woo her with fanciful stories, much less that each of his enthralling tales will reveal a scar upon his shielded soul. She never imagines that a man like Rhys could imperil her own heart while revealing so little of his own feelings. When Rhys’s past threatens his future, Madeline takes a leap of faith. She dares to believe him innocent — and risks her own life to pursue a passion more priceless than the rarest gem.

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Richard Sherlock is back on the case of Moomah’s Moolah.

It starts with a simple kidnapping, proceeds to a botched ransom drop, escalates to a safe deposit box theft, and culminates in a missing four-million- dollar diamond necklace.

The timing is awful. It all goes down during Sherlock’s two summer weeks with his daughters, Kelly and Care. The suspects are worse; Tiffany’s half-uncles, half-aunts, and other half-wit relatives. And, Moomah is the worst possible victim, because the Grande Dame of the insurance fortune now exists in an Oz state of mind.

In order to solve the case, Sherlock enlists the help of an odd group of associates, including Phoebe the Forger, Freddy the Fencer, Second Story Man, Shervy, and the Mona Lisa.

Sherlock will reluctantly figure out whodunit, but it won’t be easy.

Then hotshot lawyer Victor Manson is burned to death in his own back yard, and Adem finds himself using his unique skills to piece together the strangest crime he’s ever seen. Strange because the only possible suspect Adem can pin the murder on…is a mythical beast. A dragon.

Before Adem can unravel the mystery of Manson’s death, the Bureau loses jurisdiction to the secretive EDPA, an organization that investigates weird and deadly events. But Adem isn’t one for giving up, so he takes it upon himself to delve deeper into EDPA’s machinations, into the series of unfortunate events that led to Manson’s demise.

And what he finds may change the way he views the world — and himself — forever.

You never had cancer.

Category: Non-Fiction

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

People can become dependent on drugs and alcohol for many reasons and each person has their own underlying story. One common thread most people share when they become dependent on alcohol and drugs is the emotional and physical effects and consequences. An addiction effects self-esteem, relationships, work and eventually every aspect of your life.

I’ve interviewed top-selling authors including Todd Zalkins, Dennis Marcellino, Amy Lee Coy and Patty Holloran who each has a fascinating and inspiring story of addiction and recovery from drugs and/or alcohol. In addition an artist and blogger’s journey, Parker Lanier, who hit bottom and was able to turn his life around is included. Each of these individuals was very open and willing to share the tools and support they found helpful for getting beyond addiction. This book isn’t always easy to read as there is a lot of pain in the accounts. No one approach is emphasized because as a social worker I know that individuals do not all respond to the same method or approach. Some people work well with a 12-step approach and others find that they respond with other methods.

Some of the questions that each person addresses are:

Was there a moment when you felt you had to permanently change? What was it and what led up to it?

What type of inner dialogues entrapped you held you back and kept the cycle going?

Can you comment on the role that faith, willpower, intention and prayer play in your life and have helped in the recovery process?

What do you recommend for someone who says they can’t sustain their addiction-free life and that they continue to give in to relapsing despite having good periods?

As a therapist, I’ve observed that each person has to find his or her own solution or path to recovery. There are many paths to recovery; it’s important that every person finds the path that’s right for them. When this happens life becomes fulfilling again, self-esteem increases, relationships heal, and a person’s quality of life improves.

As a counselor, I’ve found that many of the turning point moments for my clients were precipitated by either reading or hearing someone’s personal story that was in a similar predicament. I’ve always been personally interested in what it takes to transform one’s life, let go of patterns and leap into another level of life.

Each person that was interviewed reveals a unique journey, tremendous depth into the darkest places we can descend, as well as the joy of liberation from an enslaving addiction.

There are different approaches and points of view regarding AA, psychotherapy and faith.

I am privileged to share the remarkable true accounts of these five brave people and their different ways of overcoming temptations and remaining clean or sober. You’ll find a deep honesty in each of their discussions on alcoholism, drugs and pain pill addiction.

Married to a Vegan, by Caren Albers, is free today in the Amazon Kindle store, and this book has received an average user rating of 5 out of 5 stars based 21 customer reviews.

Category: Non-Fiction

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

In her wedding vows, she promised “for better or for worse.” She also promised “to obey” but that wasn’t likely to happen. Her “for worse” arrived when her husband of thirty-plus years retired from working and adopted a healthy lifestyle, that included eating a strict, plant based, low-fat, vegan diet.

The “for better or worse” clause in their wedding vows was about to get tested.

Caren knew of Dean Ornish, a Harvard trained physician, whose research proved a low-fat, vegetarian diet paired with healthy lifestyle changes could actually reverse the effects of disease. She’d seen former president Bill Clinton interviewed on Dr. Sanjay Gupta Reports: The Last Heart Attack touting the health benefits of his conversion to a whole food, plant-based diet. But when her husband of thirty-plus years decided to try Dr. Neal Barnard’s 21- day weight loss kickstart (a low-fat, vegan diet), a part of her wanted to kickstart him to the curb.

Suffering for years with painful gout flares, high cholesterol, and elevated blood pressure, he was determined to turn his life around and get healthy, apparently, whether she liked it or not.

This book offers insights written from three perspectives. MY STORY – shares the humorous tale of how his conversion took their marriage from magic to mayhem. HIS STORY – offers the scientific reasons to embrace a plant based diet and his own amazing results. OUR STORY – shows the evolution of a couple finding their way together in a new world.

Although not a vegan cookbook, several delicious recipes are included that will delight vegan lovers, leaners, the vegan curious, or just about anyone. You’ll laugh, and learn new ways to live a healthier, happier, life!

“When someone decides to make the lifestyle change and take on a vegan diet, their spouse inevitably comes along for the ride. Married to a Vegan tells the story of one wife’s experience as her husband made the switch and took control of his health. As you will see, it becomes a positive, powerful experience for both of them. I am honored to have played a role in inspiring this story, and wish all the best to Caren and her husband, as well as any others who pursue a plant-based diet. For those who do, a happier, healthier future is in store.” – NEAL BARNARD, M.D., President, Physicans Committee for Responsible Medicine, and New York Times-bestselling author of 21-Day Weight Loss Kickstart.

Married to a Vegan is for anyone who likes to laugh as they learn new ways to live a healthier, happier life

Deleting Internet Bookmarks on an e-Ink Kindle

April 28, 2014 by Michael Gallagher Leave a Comment

It’s time to answer email again – while I usually reply back to the person individually, if I receive the same question multiple times I will try to send it out to the blog readers: I figure if several of you have the same question, many more of you do, too.  If you would like to write to me with a question, comment, tip that helps you on the Kindle, praise, and even complaints, you can do so by sending an email to michael at fkbooksandtips dot com (I write it that way in a small attempt to avoid the spam robots).

I received this question a couple of times this week via email: How do I delete a website bookmark from my Kindle Keyboard?

I had to think about that one for a few minutes – it has been a while since I have used my Kindle Keyboard (I’ve been using the larger Fire tablet and my Kindle Paperwhite).  I’ve done it before, but it has been a while.  While I do use the e-Ink Kindle’s Internet browser from time-to-time, I don’t use it that often due to every other gadget I have is faster from a web browsing standpoint.  However, I do use it on a rare occasion.

Here is how you delete a web bookmark from Kindle Keyboard’s web browser, and there may be slight variations depending upon if you are using any of the other flavors of an e-Ink Kindle.  Assuming you are starting from the Home screen, your wireless connection is on, and navigating to the Internet browser:

  • Click the “Menu’ key.
  • Click the “Experimental” option.  Click the “Web Browser’ menu option.
  • You should next see a list of websites; let’s assume we want to delete the “Facebook” bookmark; scroll down to the “Facebook” bookmark but do not select it.
  • To delete it, with the “Facebook” bookmark highlighted, move your cursor to the left, and you will next see the text underneath change to “delete bookmark.”  Select that option.
  • The “Facebook” bookmark has disappeared.

Now, let’s take this a step further and assume you wanted to rename the “Facebook” bookmark to something else.  Let’s call it “Time Waster” or something similar.  Again, starting from the Home screen, your wireless connection is on, and navigating to the Internet browser:

  • Click the “Menu’ key.
  • Click the “Experimental” option.  Click the “Web Browser’ menu option.
  • You should next see a list of websites; let’s assume we want to delete the “Facebook” bookmark; scroll down to the “Facebook” bookmark but do not select it.
  • To rename it, with the “Facebook” bookmark highlighted, move your cursor to the right, and you will next see the text underneath change to “edit bookmark’ and a popup screen with “Edit name: Facebook’ option with the word “Facebook” highlighted.
  • Type in the new bookmark name, Time Waster, then click ‘ok.’
  • The “Facebook” bookmark has been renamed to Time Waster.

Hope that helps!

Michael

A CONSPIRACY THRILLER

THE TRUTH ABOUT HUMAN HISTORY IS ABOUT TO BE REVEALED

WILL WE BE ALLOWED TO KNOW THE TRUTH?

For thousands of years the truth about human history has intentionally been suppressed and exploited.

For decades scholars have been saying that the truth about human history will be found inside the Great Pyramid of Giza, but up till now no one has ever been able to find it. Those who tried have been ridiculed and persecuted.

Will Daniel Rossler and Dr. Sarah Clarke be allowed to uncover the real and true message? As they come closer to the truth, skepticism out of the academic community is replaced by evil and malicious adversaries, dumping them into a very hostile world where violence, deceit and duplicity become their daily companions. The mysterious Orion Society with its deranged and psychopathic members, the CIA, the Marines, the Mossad and even the President of the United States become involved. Not all of them have good intentions.

THE TENTH CYCLE is a full-length novel, a provocative techno thriller about human history, conspiracies and an ancient society with power and money that will stop at nothing to reach their sinister goals.

Category: Thriller

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

When an old friend of Josh Henson’s is found beaten to death in the parking garage of the San Francisco radio station where he works, the former newspaper reporter turned Internet investigator is drawn from his home in the bucolic Florida Keys into a world of political maneuvering, intimidation and assassination, all parts of a battle not only for control of the country but for its very soul.

In a novel that anticipated the Occupy and Move Your Money movements, Henson begins covering a campaign to take back America from the corporate and political elites that have hijacked it for their own purposes and profit. As he does, he is drawn into another battle, this one fought quietly and without quarter by a shadowy group of men and women who bring their own “particular set of skills” to bear against forces that will stop at nothing in defense of wealth and power.

America Rising is a novel for our times, a novel of audacity and hope, where “change you can believe in” is more than just a slogan. It is not a screed. It’s a story of people banding together to ensure, in the words of Abraham Lincoln, that “government of the people, by the people and for the people will not perish from the earth.”

Case File #1 from the Files of Icarus Investigation

Murphy and Galveston realize there must be more to life than their mind-numbing cubical jobs. Over a barbeque lunch, Galveston attempts to convince his friend to join him in a daring new career as a private investigator. With nothing to lose, Murphy reluctantly agrees. Relying heavily on their humorous wit and questionable tactics, the men employ a creative approach to their investigations. For a time these methods prove successful, until they push too far and find themselves mired in the case of a lifetime.

An explosion rocks a New England university lab setting off a carefully orchestrated chain of events. A small device has been stolen, a key to the entire world’s energy problems, and the power that comes with controlling it. The fate of the device and its inventor lies with the newly self-proclaimed private detectives.

The two men, under the threat of arrest by the FBI, begin to criss-cross the country and the world, picking up clues to the puzzle of the missing device in England, Mexico, and even Brazil. Dead ends seem at every turn, but with the help of an outcast computer expert, a British spy and former flame of Galveston’s, and a new employee whom Murphy can’t seem to keep his eyes off of, the investigators unwind the case using their unorthodox approach, berating each other at every turn.

Who is looking to control this device and its destiny? Is it the huge multinational security firm, a devious billionaire, or a questionable member of Congress. Murphy and Galveston must find out why something so small is causing problems so large, because the hunters are quickly becoming the hunted.
