MEG: A Novel of Deep Terror is the book that launched New York Times bestselling author Steve Alten's franchise and inspired an international blockbuster starring Jason Statham. Seven years ago and seven miles below the surface of the Pacific Ocean, Dr. Jonas Taylor encountered something that changed the course of his life. Once a Navy deep-sea submersible pilot, now a marine paleontologist, Taylor is convinced that a remnant population of Carcharodon megalodon—prehistoric sharks growing up to 70 feet long, that subsisted on whales—lurks at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Offered the opportunity to return to those crushing depths in search of the Megs, Taylor leaps at the chance...but his quest for scientific knowledge (and personal vindication) becomes a desperate fight for survival, when the most vicious predator the earth has ever known is freed to once again hunt the surface.

Thrones, Dominations by Dorothy L Sayers,Jill Paton Walsh Pdf

WATER dripped from the next cell over, and faint screams echoed off the walls of the dungeon corridor. Rats squeaked and scurried outside the cell door but were too plump to fit through the gap between the cold, stone floor and iron band holding together the rotten, wooden planks of the door. Weak torch light from the hall filtered into the room from the iron grate at the top of the door, but it failed to illuminate the straw littering the chipped and pitted stone floor. Being musty and dank, it did little to alleviate the cold for the one who huddled upon it. Sitting in the corner on the thickest pile of worn-out straw, Salina shivered, arms wrapped around her drawn-up knees. Unable to see the sun in this underground pit of terror, agony, and unimaginable misery, she wasn't sure how long she'd been here. Nine months? Ten? Had a year passed already since being knocked-out and bound, then dragged here? . . . Everyone else who'd arrived at the same time had long since been released from their pain and misery, for Death had come for them. But not her. Because of her cursed healing ability, Death never even looked her way. . . . . . If this kept up, if no one came for her and Death continued avoiding her, she could only imagine what her future held. . . Lifting her head to glance at the faint light seeping into the cell, she murmured, "Death, be a dark knight and save me. Please." In a land rife with strife and overrun with evil, the Fates are hard-pressed to find someone with enough strength, courage, and mental fortitude to champion their cause. Someone who possessed not only a will of iron to stand up for what is right, no matter who might oppose him, but also the compassion and mercy needed to make a difference in the lives of the common people. So when a half-breed dragon mage appears with the ability to sense evil, they know they've found their man. But in a land torn apart by war and attacked by vicious creatures of the Underdark, can Callidor Blackfury, with his inhuman looks, tainted blood, and hellsteed mount, convince anyone to let him help? And if so, can one man alone, even with the magic powers bestowed by his mixed-heritage and dual nature, be enough to combat the forces of evil? Not only on the battlefield, but on the home front as well? It won't be easy. He is going to need help. A select few, an elite group that has the strength, skill, and resolve to do whatever it takes to wipe out darkness in all its vile forms, to protect those who cannot protect themselves, and to save those who sit in hopeless darkness, with pain and misery their only companions. Yes, with the right men and plenty of resources, the forces of evil just met their match.

The fourth novel in Peter Clines' bestselling Ex series. When he’s awake, George Bailey is just an ordinary man. Five days a week he coaxes his old Hyundai to life, curses the Los Angeles traffic, and clocks in at his job as a handyman at the local college. But when he sleeps, George dreams of something more. George dreams of flying. He dreams of fighting monsters. He dreams of a man made of pure lightning, an armored robot, a giant in an army uniform, a beautiful woman who moves like a ninja. Then one day as he’s walking from one fix-it job to the next, a pale girl in a wheelchair tells George of another world, one in which civilization fell to a plague that animates the dead…and in which George is no longer a glorified janitor, but one of humanity’s last heroes. Her tale sounds like madness, of course. But as George’s dreams and his waking life begin bleeding together, he starts to wonder—which is the real world, and which is just fantasy?
This enhanced eBook features read-along narration. A unique monster-under-the-bed story with the perfect balance of giggles and shivers, this picture book relies on the power of humor over fear, appeals to a child's love for creatures both alarming and absurd, and glorifies the scope of a child's imagination. One night, when Ethan checks under his bed for his monster, Gabe, he finds a note from him instead: "Gone fishing. Back in a week." Ethan knows that without Gabe's familiar nightly scares he doesn't stand a chance of getting to sleep, so Ethan interviews potential substitutes to see if they've got the right equipment for the job—pointy teeth, sharp claws, and a long tail—but none of them proves scary enough for Ethan. When Gabe returns sooner than expected from his fishing trip, Ethan is thrilled. It turns out that Gabe didn't enjoy fishing because the fish scared too easily.

Subud is a direct and spontaneous spiritual experience that allows people to receive a contact with the Great Life Force. It re-awakens their inner feeling and puts them in touch with their own guidance, eventually bringing to the surface their true nature which was before obstructed and cluttered with erroneous beliefs, ancestral patterns of behavior, culture, education and their family malfunctions. Many have found a deeper understanding of their own religious beliefs from the evidence they receive for themselves. Others have come to actualize their true talent and work. There are Subud groups in eighty countries, bringing together harmoniously people of many different religious and ethnic backgrounds. The spiritual practice, or latihan, arises from within. It is a natural process that occurs without effort or study. This book is the result of the collaborative effort of three women who have practiced the latihan of Subud for decades. It compiles testimonies of Subud members from all over the world, on different topics. Each chapter begins with a short account of observations, experiences, receivings and dreams on the subject. People interviewed were of different age groups, social and ethnic backgrounds, some newly opened in Subud, some older members, some second and third generation Subud. The opening latihan when one first receives this contact - is a ceremony of introduction into the spiritual exercise after a three-month period of inquiry referred to as the probation or investigation period. Through the latihan people renew their contact with the power of God and become aware of the latent powers that reside in all of humankind. The central feature of Subud is the latihan kejiwaan, or inner training, which takes place for half an hour up to an hour, two or three times a week, and is practiced by men and women separately. Subud has little doctrinal teaching except for the belief in divine power and higher centers of consciousness. The implication is that people practicing the latihan align themselves with those higher centers. It is available to any person seventeen and older who has a sincere wish to worship God and wants to receive this contact. The action of the latihan within each person allows the power of God to express itself spontaneously through singing, chanting, shouting, moving, dancing, crying, laughing, etc. Subuds founder, Bapak Muhammad Subuh, explains that in this way, when in the latihan we make a complete surrender to the Power of God (or the Great Life Force), we can receive the education of our inner selves, free from interference by our minds and hearts and according to our own individual needs. Participants have often reported strong feelings of rapture and release, psychological and physical healing. During latihan, one lets go of thoughts and emotions in order to follow what surfaces: those movements and sounds that spontaneously arise from deep within. It is a form of cleansing which allows the worship of God to become stronger and less obstructed, a training that lets individuals get in touch, develop and trust their inner guidance, enabling the complete self to emerge through an action that comes from beyond the thinking and the will.
