The Jon Ryan of the distant future has an uncontrollable knack for mischief. Now it's really gotten him in trouble. If the universe had a principal's office, he'd be sitting outside it for the next million years! They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Look that up and you'll find Jon's picture in the Wikipedia article. After the evil clan no-time Earth, he simply wanted to restore his home world. And Jon did, but was he satisfied? No.Then he decided to try to repair that time line to the exact one it had originally been. Talk about a harebrained notion. In the mean time, in the new timeline here at home, a bizarre and unstoppable threat is heading toward Earth. Gigantic building superstructures cruising through space are destroying star systems and using the raw materials left over to make copies of themselves. No civilization, no matter how advanced, has been able to even slow their progress. Facing certain destruction, a desperate future version of Dr Toño DeJesus risks teaming up with the new-timeline human version of himself. They hatch a plan to save humankind so ludicrous that it just might work. I the post-resurrection timeline, there is, of course, a version of Jon Ryan. With the original Jon off on his crazy quest, the two scientist decide to talk the new Jon in to becoming an android. Then-like his counterpart before him-he can save our collective bacon. Why would two intelligent men of science think the new Jon, a veritable rookie, could save us? Well, because their plan incudes placing a back-up copy of the future Jon in the present one's head. The Toños figure two Jons are not only better than one, but that that combination alone could potentially stop the juggernaut Earth faces. And no, neither Toño was drunk when they came up with this scheme. But dealing with the new Jon may well drive them to drink. He's as impossible to handle as his namesake. But, if humans are to survive as a species, it's Jon Ryan to the rescue or it's curtains. Now, no overly-complicated, absurd scheme can be too convoluted, right? Yeah, so the new Jon Ryan's interactions with his older copy yield a most unexpected twist. If the old Jon is to help the younger one, they must first save the present-day copy of his wife, Sapale. And she's about to be executed on Kaljax. How many saves can Team Ryan pull off? And even if the younger Sapale can be freed, how are the Jons going to stop the mean buildings-in-space? Confused yet? Well they sure are. Read Ryan's Resolution to see if they're achieving even one goal is gonna happen. And please, if you figure out what's going on, let the Jons know. This time out, they're going to need all the help they can get!

There is hope, but first you must find it. Jon Ryan has saved humanity time and again. But he is called upon by fate to once again defend his species. As He prepares for an horrific war with the vicious and ruthless Berrillians, a new, more deadly threat arises. A mythical race know as the Last Nightmare enters our universe, intent of destroying it. They have consumed twelve universes in the infinite past they've lived. So far, no force has been able to even slow their conquest. The annihilation of everything looks to be a certainty.As the last hope to combat the indomitable threat, an alliance is made between old friends and bitter enemies. Every civilization realizes that defeat is so certain that only such a cooperation might stop the Nightmare. Humans are gifted the fantastic technologies to walk among the stars to help in the fight. To be so close to a magical era for humanity yet so likely to perish is a crushing weight. Can Jon pull one more miracle out of his hat?

Who is Jon Ryan? The Earth is doomed. Jupiter has been thrown out of its orbit and in less than a century it will collide with our planet. A desperate scheme is hatched. Jon, a fighter pilot, volunteers to be the first human to transfer to an untested android host. If Jon survives he can then endure the rigors of long space flights. He will search the nearby stars hoping to find humankind a new home. Can he succeed or will he become the sole survivor lost in space forever? A more important question is whether the galaxy is ready for Jon Ryan. Probably not. Poor aliens. You have to feel kind of sorry for them. This brilliant first installment of The Forever pairs the best selling The Forever Life and The Forever Enemy. The book is designed to accompany the audiobook version published by Podium Publishing and performed by the outstanding actor Scott Aiello.

If you can't be dead make sure someone pays for that fact dearly. When he was a human, Jon Ryan always looked forward to a better future. We all do. But his tomorrows turned out poorly. Ripped from his original time, he's being tested severely two-billion years down the time stream. He only wants to protect the shapeshifting teens he rescued from genocide. The Adamant and his evil twin aren't going to make that easy. After he nearly rescues the teens Jon slips into a deep funk. All the while the teens are being probed and tortured by a cruel priestess bent on discovering their transformative secrets. Jon must resort to infiltrating the Adamant ranks in a covert attempt to learn where his precious kids have been taken. The alternate Jon Ryan is becoming more insane and more determined to take the shapeshifters for his own dark purposes. A magical galactic dragon volunteers to take the teens under her wing and teach them. But can the Adamant or either Jon let them go?

Sometimes, in order to live you have to die first. Jon Ryan has met and won many insurmountable challenges. Now he faces one he never expected and seems unable to master. All the fighting, all the death, and all the suffering are changing him. He's growing darker and less human with each passing crisis. Will he become the emotionless machine he is housed in?The dark forces of The Berrillians are relentless. Having lost the technological war to The Alliance, they revert to guerrilla tactics. They threaten to terrorize the galaxy into submission. It's a game they are very good at. With no relief in sight, humanity turns once again to a weary Jon Ryan for answers. He develops a plan, but if it succeeds it's brutality threatens to push him over the edge. Jon must answer the question as to whether survival is worth his soul?

If it's peace you want don't ever be Jon Ryan. He's lived two billion years in the android host he transferred to when asked to save humankind. Darn thing won't wear out. Since successfully ensuring the survival of the population of doomed Earth, Jon wanted to die. He was switched off with the promise of never being powered up again. Yeah, Jon's never been that kind of lucky. He was forced to fight and win a war with the most powerful enemy he'd ever faced, the Berrillians. Then he longed for rest.Not in a universe that Jon lives in. A few hundred years after the Berrillian War whispers of a new and existential threat began to be heard. People disappeared without a trace. Planets vanished without leaving a pebble behind. And some one was hiding impossible elements at the scenes of these mysteries. Anti-gold sitting right out in the open where it could not possibly be stable.For better or worse Jon came to learn that the impending invasion of our universe would be by a species calling themselves the Ancient Gods. This malevolent, destructive, and merciless horde was bent on one thing alone. They wanted to have fun destroying our universe. They'd done it to others and couldn't wait to get the party started here. One factor, one force of nature stood between the Ancient Gods's success or their failure. You have to know it was the reluctant Jon Ryan.But could he pull another miracle out of his hat? Could he triumph over the unbeaten Ancient Gods? If Las Vegas still existed no one there would touch Jon's odds.Jon assembles his old crew, Toño, Sapale, Al, and his ship's AI Stingray. But they have little time to learn about their enemy and less chance of victory that ever before. After all they were facing god this time out. But, if there was an unwinnable fight anywhere Jon Ryan would rather be at the center of it than waiting to hear how badly it went. Yeah, #fighterpilot. You gotta love those jet jockeys.

A rapturous, perhaps obsessive, tale of seven cities of gold has led hundreds, if not thousands, to their demise or to a lasting mental weakness over the past several centuries. Is this myth or truth?The patriarch of the generations-old, dysfunctional Burns family has bequeathed a lasting memory of an irrefutable ordeal to family members who barely know one another.Shrine of the Apache is an exciting 21st Century story of temptation, infatuation, and greed that leads the kin on a quest for what may only be legend, in a place that is historically notorious, and where the lore and the lure are unnatural.Historian George Johnson wrote: "Everyone who goes into the mountains leaves behind a little bit of themselves."

Butterflies are beautiful, fascinating, and in trouble. What can a school class do to help? They can build a butterfly garden at their school.

As the butterflies come to the BUTTERFLY INN, the children watch the life cycle of the butterfly from hungry caterpillars through metamorphosis into adults. With lovely illustrations, Nancy Derey Riley shows what children can do to help butterflies and other pollinators. Nancy's niece, Jennifer Martinez, an elementary school music teacher, turned the story into a song and the book is complete with sheet music and guitar chords. You will be flitting like a butterfly after you learn it. Plus, there are plenty of butterfly facts and gardening tips for eager readers, budding entomologists, teachers, and caregivers.

Believing that we are sustaining the natural state of mind while we are caught up with ordinary thinking is not much use. We need to identify the genuine, the authentic -- this is important. We need to identify that which is utterly empty, utterly naked, not confined to anything, totally clear and cognizant yet not fixated on anything.                                                                                                Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche
