Since George Romero's Night of the Living Dead came out in 1968, the world of zombies has been defined as one in which the lumbering dead shamble about in search of brains. Spectacle PMG has dug a little deeper to stretch the genre and bring you tales of the dead from across town and across the centuries. Scatter through bitter mountain passes with what remains of Napoléon's legion, hunt an unseen horror in the darkest hour of the frontier night, and test your sword against an undead horde in defense of your plague-ridden realm. But one need not look back over hundreds of years to find the dead among us; what about that posh dinner party in Manhattan or the man who just passed you on the street? You will find that these things, too, are not what they seem. This collection will show you what the history books left out, as well as what lurks in a town much like yours today. "When the first church knight was bitten, he used his body as a shield to protect the other two, fighting on and taking the claws and bites meant for them. He was eaten alive while he fought. The second knight was bitten, but in a moment of respite, he fell upon his own sword. He stood again a few moments later, and Grehle stove in his skull with her anointed mace." And so it might have been during the plague years, a Darkest Age. This is one of many visions Spectacle PMG brings to you in a collection focusing on zombie tales and cannibal comforts. Step into these pages and you will find that the history books might be hiding something. So, too, might be the courteous neighbor down the street. With prize winning stories from Nick Pugliese and Yen Ooi you can light a candle and enjoy well-rounded and genre bending evenings of horror.

Tell me what you want" "care for my children, they have nothing" For many, thoughts of suicide come easily during times of debt, doubt, and pain. Mike was no different as he sat alone, drowning his pain in drink, plotting his own demise. In contemplation, during what would have been his last moments, he came to glimpse the mysterious ways in which God, the Savior works. In the journey to knowing God, experiencing Him, and finally allowing Him to be part of his life, Mike rode a roller-coaster, battling every obstacle and cherishing every calm moment, before discovering the purpose of his life.

Through faith and perseverance, his journey delivered help, touched the lives of thousands, and nurtured new relationships of true friendship across the continents.

This book serves to further support those in need as proceeds will go directly towards efforts to help the underprivileged in various groups overseas. This is managed through Mike's charity, the East African Service and Empowerment Organization (EASE: http://easeorg.com), which has recently expanded to include impoverished areas in Asia, and his current church in Hong Kong, the International Fellowship North (IFN).

"It seems that a rich and famous author has some valuable statues that keep disappearing from his house. His very secure house. His extremely locked up house that no one goes into except one long-time servant and the author's agent. There have been four robberies in four months and he's distraught about the disappearances. He's filed a police report, but it's not exactly a priority at headquarters." Chuckling softly, she added, "Like I said, sounds like a Sam Osborne case." Sam Osborne and his secretary, Casey Jones, join us once again in the second book of the Sam Osborne Detective Series, where Sam takes on the job of sleuthing out the disappearance of valuable Kuan Yin statues from the home of successful romance novelist Jacob Hardy. Jacob seldom smiled and seldom became angry. In fact, he was very much like one of the statues he collected-cold to the touch, but beautiful in appearance. These statues have been Jacob's solace and inspiration, a gift to himself, and their disappearance has unsettled his very structured life. Rosalie wasn't certain if it was the house or just her nerves, but she was trembling Rosalie McGovern, a typing assistant hired at the suggestion of Jacob's agent, has disrupted his surroundings even more, causing Jacob to question his novels, his life purpose, and most of all, his sheltered heart. Sam puts everyone in Jacob's life on a list of suspects to discover who could be behind the thievery of Jacob's statues, and surprising everyone, something a little Wretched comes along...

Wretched Fate

Private Investigator Sam Osborne returns in the latest installment of Genilee Swope Parente &amp; F. Sharon Swope's 'Fate' mystery series! This time the case hits close to home, as Sam hurries to unravel the very-public kidnapping of a child... a kidnapping that mirrors his own son's heartbreaking disappearance. Sam's assistant, Casey Jones, wheeled after him into his office and deposited yesterday's mail on the desk. "You have an appointment with Margaret Turner tomorrow afternoon at one o'clock." "Why is that name familiar?" "A couple of years back, her daughter was kidnapped. She paid the ransom and the police and FBI launched an investigation, but never located the child." Sam was frowning now. "I can't help her," he said firmly. It had been fourteen years since his own son, Davie, had disappeared. Despite the fevered investigation he launched, Sam had never found his son and had come across very few clues. Meanwhile, the hunt had cost him his job and contributed to his divorce. His wife blamed him for their loss; he blamed himself. Struggling through his own past, the lingering guilt and sense of failure, Sam is determined that this mother won't be left with these same burdens. Unfortunately, there are far more dirty little secrets in her tranquil hometown than the grief-stricken Maggie Turner ever could have guessed. Everyone, from nosy neighbors to old high school flames to members of a countryside Amish community, seems to be jumping onto the list of suspects. Can Maggie's own ex-husband be trusted? Could there be some mistaken identity at play? Is it blackmail or simply money that the villain wants? Are there other children in danger? And why can't Sam keep his client off his mind? He's never felt less professional... or more hopelessly attracted. With his own self-doubt compounding, can Sam lead authorities to the little girl's rescue in time? Or will he fail her, and her violet-eyed mother, just as he did his own little boy?
