The Warrior and The Dragon: A Tale of Magic, Transformation, and Discovery. Weary from the Succession War, Jason seeks peace in Smoky Springs. Tasked with delivering an athamé and unlocking his inner magic, he is pursued by Erlender, a necromancer who covets the kalasha he carries.
He meets Akela, a wolf who shifts into a human. She helps him change into a dragon. He discovers he is ful lling a prophecy about which he knew nothing. When he, in his dragon skin, thwarts a kidnapping, he exposes the vulnerability of his community. He teaches them hand-to-hand combat and how to use quarter staffs, converting the resident women and
children into warriors.
He repels a brutal attack led by a necromancer. The residents successfully defend their home using techniques he taught them, but the battle leaves him seriously wounded. With the valley healer’s aid, he unlocks his inner magic, and a fae teaches him to use it.
Six years of pursuit culminated in a chilling whisper on the wind: Erlender has found Smoky Springs, forcing Jason to choose between his quest and the safety of those he promised to defend.

In a world where technology gallops ahead and surveillance seeps into every corner of life, one man dares to rewrite the rules. It Is Good to Be Bad is a razor-sharp thriller that opens the Chronicles of the Guild trilogy with style, substance, and a touch of rebellion.
Meet Christopher Martin-Olsen: brilliant, ambitious, and not quite the villain you’d expect. When opportunity knocks-loudly-he seizes the chance to build something extraordinary: a network of discreet operations designed to help the ultra-wealthy and powerful dance between the raindrops of legality when doing what is still ethically acceptable.
But no good disruption goes unpunished. As governments grow more watchful and institutions more ruthless, Christopher must navigate a web of competing interests, shifting loyalties, and morally murky waters. A secretive cabal supports his vision-though their motives remain as layered as their influence. Consequently, when allies falter and enemies strike, survival demands more than ingenuity; it calls for boldness, sacrifice, and perhaps a few well-calculated risks.
This is no dry lecture on financial trickery or bureaucratic overreach. With wit, grit, and a fast-paced narrative, It Is Good to Be Bad explores the thin line between principle and pragmatism. Its characters are complex, flawed, and painfully human-each facing their own internal battles as they clash with external forces that are as real as they are relentless.
Is Christopher a mastermind or a pawn? A hero or a villain? That’s for the reader to decide. What’s certain is this: once you enter his world, nothing will seem quite as black and white again. Clever, suspenseful, and unsettlingly plausible, this novel is for anyone who enjoys being challenged as much as entertained. Because sometimes, in a world stacked against you, it’s not about being good-it’s about being good at being bad. Get your copy of It Is Good to be Bad: Chronicles of the Guild by E.E.

What if Scripture could speak to us not just through its words, but through the hearts of the people who lived it? In The Word in Their Voices, poetry becomes a window into the living Word of God—seen through the eyes of Mary at the foot of the Cross, of Judas in his agony, of the Centurion, of Peter, Stephen, and the unnamed ones who walked beside Christ.
This collection invites readers to experience sacred Scripture as a living drama, unfolding in human voices that echo across centuries. Written by a Catholic pilgrim bearing the baptismal name Augustine, this book emerges from a life steeped in both healing and searching.
After decades dedicated to medicine, the author now turns to the deeper healing of the soul, offering meditations shaped by personal devotion, Church tradition, and love for the Word of God. Each poem is paired with reflection and scriptural insight—designed not to instruct from above but to walk beside, as a fellow traveler might. These are not just retellings of biblical stories; they are invitations to dwell in them, pray with them, and live them.

Across the world, every autumn, thousands of young people leave their homes to study at a university, and, then, to find work in a city. Most expect to avoid cruelly hard work, with the plough, the spade, or the loom, and to find congenial work, in the air-conditioned office, at meetings, or writing reports.
Then there are all the young people who will not make it to college, for one reason or another (usually, poverty). But all of you need learning and understanding, and some of it can come from writing your own poetry, or reading others’.
Call Douglas’s poems candles in the wind, which have illuminated his life, and others’ too, and may do the same for yours, as we all face up to the realities of our situations and societies. Seeing what is true, in our corner of civilization, may be more useful to us, and more easily communicated, than creating or analysing verses which conform to a culture’s prevailing values.
Bring your critical faculties to bear on my poetry – ask yourself, what is true in these poems, and what is not? And learn.

Uluru is a massive, sacred sandstone monolith in Australia’s Northern Territory, known for its deep cultural significance to the Indigenous Anangu people and its striking appearance at sunrise and sunset. It is located within Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, alongside the Kata Tjuta rock domes.
Eight lone walks around Uluru gave the author not only extraordinary experiences, but also profound insights from the Rock that is a gift for Life.
The reader follows the author’s walk every day while she is connecting deeper and deeper to Uluru. The understandings and the information that she received, changed her for Life. The walks were not only deep and insightful, but also playful and even spiced with humor.
The main insight that Uluru gave to the author is about the roles of man and woman. … which many indigenous cultures may know all too well, but a subject that has become a bit blurred in modern times.
This is an easy reading book. The author has passed on the insights in as undiluted a form as possible. The male and the female … we can find out about these everywhere in Nature …. Uluru .. this huge monolith … gives it out loud and clear.
