Miss Manhattan
$9.99Miss Manhattan truly captures the richness of diversity and the simultaneity of life happening in New York. The text is rich, tumbling, and layered, yet never chaotic as the sensations of people, cars, birds, flowers, and all forms of city life cascading around the speaker’s (and reader’s) attention. This unique collection cleverly displays the inherent resonance of life in the city, in a beautiful, joyful, and sometimes riotous, but always with a sense of life and creative force, not destruction or entropy. These poems live in the individual body, even as they describe an external and collective experience.

Reflections of Humanity: A Tapestry of Perceptions
Price range: $3.99 through $8.99This collection will take on different meanings at different points in time. Many of the key themes have multiple messages. This is also the case in many interpretations of the vocabulary. Everyone has an individual perception of what truth is. These works are representative of this writer’s understanding of that entity.
It is my hope that this collection will inspire the realization within each reader that the true wisdom in life is one’s ability to believe in oneself. Thus, will it become possible to accept responsibility for our own actions? Once this end is accomplished, we can, each in his own right, make beneficial changes. Many have had this same dream since the dawn of time. It is this writer’s most ardent hope that this work will find acceptance within the heart of each reader. A further hope is that these perceptions will serve as an inspiration to each to establish a positive sense of self and a more cohesive view of the people around you.
Try to set gender aside in these works. Wherever possible, substitute people and situations within your own life and the lives of the loved ones around you.

Heaven!… Boring?
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99Eternal life-is it a dream come true or an ominous threat? For those who worry that floating on clouds and playing harps sounds incredibly dull, this book offers a unique, engaging, and compelling perspective on heaven. Heaven! Boring? departs from typical explorations of Heaven to inspect the concept of life-ever-after from fresh vantage points. Author Greg Thomas, MD brings history, biology, cosmology, philosophy, and life experience, together with whimsical and relevant anecdotes to stimulate the intellect while simultaneously entertaining. Examine how modern science sheds light on the relationship between the temporal and the eternal, and how this can actually deepen our appreciation for the biblical promise of eternal life. Explore how our present sensory experiences both reveal and conceal the eternal. Most importantly, Thomas offers reflections on how the gospel promise of eternal life is indeed good news! The promise of eternal life is not a sentimental notion or wishful thinking; it is serious business. This book is for everyone who has ever asked, Will I get bored in Heaven?

Michael and the Ice Princess: A Mystical Romance
Price range: $3.99 through $11.99A lyrical novel with a fairy-tale plot, this fresh presentation of the enduring quest story is a fascinating literary introduction to Western mystical thought. “Drawing on rich and eclectic sources, Mary Mendenhall has produced a memorable tapestry of great power and beauty,” a London reviewer wrote about the first edition.
An unpaid debt. A cursed king. The chilling reminder, “There is a power greater than yours,” when his wife dies in childbirth, his daughter is lost, and his kingdom crumbles.
Sensing that all is not right, the forgotten princess embarks on a journey of self-discovery alone, misunderstood and confused, wandering in search of home… So begins the story of Michael, a medieval craftsman craving fulfillment who stumbles across a cold and aloof stranger. But the Ice Princess is not like the fairy-tale figures of the Snow Queen, North Wind, or the White Witch: she is a flesh-and-blood woman with a quest of her own.
Reminiscent of the storytelling styles of Elizabeth Goudge and George MacDonald, Michael and the Ice Princess: A Mystical Romance offers an ideal ‘bedtime story’ in the old oral tradition. Suitable for older youth and anyone who craves spirituality linked with old-fashioned romance, this classic novella is an enchanting journey through the world of sages of long ago who still have something to say to modern souls.
