Oh, a drug dealer shall tremble when hearing "yes... but family."Perhaps you would prefer dancing a macabre waltz with Dorothy and her friends in the land of Oz? What about "revenge, sweet revenge"?Worry not, you can keep the fury of the gods and a flesh feast for dessert. After all... the author well knows there's no end like an ancient course to tie up this bouquet of nightmares.Did this seem to shudder? Wait until you turn the first page, it won't let you go. You'll find yourself smiling more than once, it will awake your most disturbing side.Ten stories to steal your sleep -and your mind.Enjoy.Mar Garcia - TBM Horror ExpertsDark Thoughts is an awesome collection of fast-paced tales of a wide variety of horrific topics that will keep you at the edge of your seat.

Devil in the Details: The Practice of Situational Leadership

Devil in the Details provides a step-by-step pragmatic guide to leading teams. The experiences Kevin Kennedy shares here are real and will help you practice your own leadership in a new way -Penny Herscher, president and CEO of FirstRain Inc. "In the bloated world of management books, this is an all-too-rare license to think. The chapter on working with the board alone is worth the cover price" -Ric Andersen, partner, Milestone Partners "When journalists, technology beat writers, or business historians write the story of a high-tech company, they tend to lapse into clichés. Devil in the Details is the opposite of such books. It allows you to observe things at close range and get an unvarnished picture of how management and leadership really work. Kevin Kennedy is direct and unafraid" -Betsy Atkins, president and CEO of Baja Corporation "In business as in other aspects of life, the best leaders balance emotion and inspiration with a meticulous understanding of the details. With respect and compassion for aspiring leaders at all levels, Kevin Kennedy guides the reader using situational techniques that work equally well in the back office and the board room" -The Honorable Gregory W. Slayton, founder and principal of Slayton Capital; former US Consul General and US Chief of Mission to Bermuda "An insightful journey through real-world case studies of leadership, both the good and the not so good" -Marty Kaplan, chairman of the board, JDSU
