  • - Moving Energy to Achieve Positive Outcomes
    af Paul Harry Simons
    207,95 - 286,95 kr.

    The Master Invocations are seventy-two invocations that summon Ascended Masters and Angelic Beings from the spirit realms for the purpose of both projecting and extracting energy, with the goal of creating the best possible outcomes in life. The Master Invocations were channeled over a fifteen-year period, from 2008 through 2023, by Paul Harry Simons, a spiritual medium who heals, teaches, and trains people from all walks of life in the ways of moving energy to create better outcomes. The invocations are meant to be used in concert with a Vogel Wand, a quartz crystal cut to the specifications of IBM research scientist Marcel Vogel, the inventor of liquid crystal displays and a specialist in the fields of crystals, the occult, and other esoteric studies. The wand is critical to create the cohesion necessary to attract, repel, amplify, store, and transmit Universal Life Force. All of the invocations can also be performed using holographic or telepathic mediumship, though they will have lesser levels of cohesion than when using a Vogel Wand. The Master Invocations offers detailed instructions and explanations, along with seventy-two invocations that can change outcomes in your personal life and interpersonal relationships, as well as business, health, transportation, collective consciousness, local, state, national, and global/planetary issues. No prior experience in energy work is required. All that is necessary is an open mind and willingness to work toward better outcomes for yourself, your loved ones, your community, and the universe.

    Pucci Riddle is not your average freelance journalist and blogger. Along with a zest for life and a deep knowledge of craft-made liquors, she was born with an unusual gift: she sees ghosts. Though her psychic abilities often interfere, Pucci tries to live a normal life. Let''s face it: Who would want to date a woman who talks to dead people? When Pucci goes to Grand Cayman for a working holiday, she is surprised by a ghost at a rum tasting. It quickly becomes clear that the ghost wants her help to solve a murder. Pucci has never solved a murder before, but she''s not the kind of woman who backs down from a challenge. After she innocently tells the police the location of the body- and becomes a suspect in the murder- Pucci enlists the help of an old flame, a detective from Scotland Yard. Together they set out to solve the mystery before them, a trail- strewn with kidnappings, riddles, sunken ships-that will lead them to hidden treasure, perhaps the greatest hoard ever found on British soil. But Pucci and her allies must make haste. Not only are the police after her. The Dark Entities and the ruthless Shadow Man are hot on her trail.

    The Rise and Fall of a Super Freak: And Other True Stories of Black Men Who Made History, is a pocket collection of stories, by award-winning journalist Mike Sager, about American Black men whose lives significantly affected the direction and zeitgeist of American culture. Rick James, known to all as Super Freak, was the first to wear African-inspired braids; his powerful funk beats powered the rollicking 1980s and can still be heard in music today. Sager met music''s King of Funk within the thick granite walls of historic Folsom State Prison, where James was serving the final weeks of a sentence for assault, false imprisonment, and furnishing drugs, the result of two separate crack-fueled incidents. After James left prison, the two men remained friends. Eric "Eazy E" Wright was a crack dealer who formed, along with icons Dr. Dre and Ice Cube, the seminal rap group Niggas Wit Attitude. Eazy''s business practices and lifestyle set the bar for hip hop. But in the end, shockingly, he succumbed to AIDS. Black motorist Rodney Glenn King''s videotaped beating, at the hands of Los Angeles police, was a watershed moment in American racial history, focusing massive public attention for the first time on the issue of racially motivated police brutality and the perils of driving while black. King''s sacrifices paved the way for movements like Black Lives Matter and worldwide calls for racial equality. A look at what happened that fateful night, from both inside and outside of King''s vehicle. Freeway Rick Ross didn''t invent crack. But he probably did more than anyone else to cause its spread. The way he sees it, Ross was a banker in a shadow economy-an American capitalist in the grand tradition of our country''s rags-to-riches folklore, bringing jobs and riches to his people and himself. How one illiterate man from South Central Los Angeles changed the course of history.*With additional interior art by WBYK.

    Set during the 13th century, Edge of Armageddon is the stirring climax in the Brotherhood of the Mamluks trilogy. The story brings together characters from Books 1 and 2: Duyal, the enslaved nomad boy who rose to command a reconnaissance unit; Leander, the French soldier who abandoned the Crusades to join the devout Islamic warriors he admired, and Baybars, a Kipchak from the Eurasian steppe who is now the charismatic leader of the elite Bahri Mamluks of Egypt. The novel introduces us to Esel, a respected bowmaker in her nomadic tribe who is seized, enslaved, and sold to a wealthy arms merchant in Syria. Overhearing her master plotting against Baybars, a nephew she has not seen since his adolescence, Esel risks her life to flee Damascus and warn Baybars of the coming betrayal. Embraced in Baybars'' camp, Esel plunges into the hazard and intrigue surrounding her ambitious nephew. Soon, she is aiding Baybars in his quest to win the sultanate and countering the efforts of a female spy who stalks the roving Bahri. Tension builds as the Mongol army slashes a bloody path through Mesopotamia and northern Syria, eyeing Cairo as its prize. In a fateful battle on the wide plain just east of the biblical site of Armageddon, Egypt''s Mamluks come face-to-face with the seemingly unconquerable Mongols, who sacked their Kipchak tribes twenty-four years prior. At stake for Esel and the Mamluks is the survival of their people, preservation of their fledgling empire, and the continuance of Islam itself. A gripping tale of betrayal and love, retribution, mercy, abandonment, and redemption, Edge of Armageddon is also a compelling account of the historical Battle of Ayn Julut-an unheralded clash whose outcome leaves crucial repercussions still felt today.  Author Graft, a former U.S. Marine officer, conveys to his characters an authentic understanding of combat and fighting men. His inspiration for the book started with the history of the Mamluk Sword, the saber worn traditionally by Marines as part of the dress uniform. Based on exhaustive research that took the author to Mongolia and the Middle East, the book is filled with vivid cultural details and battle accounts.

    af Peter Kravitz

    On Peter Kravitz'' first day as a teacher in an inner-city New York public school, a veteran principal taught him the mantra that would carry him through his next thirty-two years in front of classes: Treat the children as if they were your own. Those nine words got Kravitz-"Krav" to his students-through three firings in one year, a banishment to the library, countless teenage dramas, a few tragic deaths, the impacts of 9/11 and Columbine on schools, dozens of high school journalism awards, and many, many visits to the principal''s office.  Krav''s path to teaching was a crooked one. During his college years, the Division 1 college wrestler was infected with a difficult-to-diagnose virus and found himself committed to a treatment facility for mental illness. In time, forever changed by his experience, Kravitz resumed his trip along life''s road. He returned to college and ditched his accounting major. He met his future wife, Jennifer, and the pair lit out for adventures in Paris and elsewhere. After a short stint in journalism, he went into teaching. His proving ground: three of New York''s roughest Brooklyn High Schools. As Kravitz struggled to help his students (and himself) to survive and thrive, he eventually found his footing in a Long Island high school as a teacher, coach and mentor, earning a reputation as a cool but effective educator with a permanent place in the hearts of many of his students and colleagues. Of course, Krav didn''t get there without breaking a few rules, aggravating a few administrators, and introducing a few readings that may not have been in the approved curriculum . . . but what cool teach doesn''t?

    Senlac is a two-part historical novel that brings to life the turbulent period leading to the Norman conquest of England in 1066, when the English were forced to defend the kingdom against invasions by both the Normans and the Vikings. The book is named for the hill upon which the final defense was mounted. The results would dramatically change the course of history.Senlac, Book One, opens during Christmas, 1065, a time of grave national crisis and disquieting omens in England, when the aged King Edward the Confessor, the seventh son of ├åthelred the Unready, dies in the Palace of Westminster in London. Even as a successor is crowned by popular acclaim, King Harold II faces attack from two formidable neighbors: the Viking army of Harald Hardraada, and the Norman forces lead by William the Conqueror. Also in play is Harold''s own exiled younger brother, Tostig, who is bent on revenge against the King who banished him.ΓÇïIn Book Two of Senlac, the inevitable happens; forces are engaged in violent, bloody war. Each of the three powerful leaders are forced to the very limit of their abilities and resources as they fight to achieve their ambitious goals. The result is the tragic year of The Three Battles, the death of thousands of warriors and common people conscripted for the carnage, and the destruction of a whole way of life. Nothing will ever be the same. Carefully researched and re-imagined by Londoner and first-time novelist Julian del la Motte, Senlac turns the dust of history into living flesh and emotion. "It might just be the best historical fiction you''ll ever read," says Charles McNair, who was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for fiction for his novel, Land O'' Goshen.

    Senlac is a two-part historical novel that brings to life the turbulent period leading to the Norman conquest of England in 1066.

The results would dramatically change the course of history.Senlac, Book One, opens during Christmas of the year 1065, a time of grave national crisis and disquieting omens, when the aged King Edward the Confessor, the seventh son of ├åthelred the Unready, dies in the Palace of Westminster in London. He leaves behind no heir.To fill the void, Edward''s brother-in-law, Harold, the Earl of Wessex and the greatest warrior in England, is hurriedly elected king by popular acclaim.  Harold desperately seeks to unify a kingdom ravaged by the Danish occupation, and by unrest on both the Scottish and Welsh borders.In order to ensure military support in the north, Harold must turn his back on his beloved common-law wife, Edith the Fair-also known as Edith Swanneck, for the graceful length of her neck-and their children to marry Aeldyth, the sister of both the Earl of Northumbria and the Earl of Mercia. Meanwhile, Harold''s mercurial younger brother, Tostig, is bitterly plotting a return from exile and revenge against the King.Across the North Sea, the King of Norway, the aging and psychotic Harald Hardraada, who was said to be a full seven feet tall, dreams of a new Viking Empire on English soil, and strikes an alliance with Tosig.

    Some say he was a breakthrough academic and visionary shaman. Others say he was a sham. Either way, Carlos Castaneda shaped a generation of mystical thinkers and magic mushroom eaters.In 1968, at the height of the psychedelic age, Castaneda published The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge, the first of twelve books describing his apprenticeship to an Indian shaman, and his journeys to the "separate reality" of the sorcerers'' worlds.Like Herman Hesse''s Steppenwolf and Aldous Huxley''s The Doors of Perception, The Teachings of Don Juan and its sequels became essential reading for legions of truth seekers. Castaneda himself became a cult figure-seldom seen, nearly mythological, a cross between Timothy Leary and L. Ron Hubbard: a short, dapper, Buddha-with-an-attitude who likened his own appearance to that of a "Mexican bellhop."Though Castaneda had more than ten million books in print in seventeen languages, he lived in wily anonymity for nearly thirty years, doing his best, in his own words, to become "as inaccessible as possible." Most people figured he had a house somewhere in the Sonoran Desert, where he''d studied with his own teacher, a leathery old Indian brujo named Don Juan Matus.In truth, Castaneda lived and wrote for most of that time in Westwood Village, a neighborhood of students and professors in Los Angeles, not far from UCLA and Beverly Hills. Upon his death in 1998, things became even more murky.A year-long investigation into the mysterious life and impeccable death of Carlos Castaneda, as told by his wife, his adopted son, his mistresses, and his followers.

He had sex on-screen with two generations of leading ladies, from Seka and Marilyn Chambers to Traci Lords, Ginger Lynn, and Italian Member of Parliament Cicciolina.

    Named to Kirkus Reviews'' Best Books of 2020.The Orphan''s Daughter is a novel about a girl who grows up in the shadow of her charismatic but troubled father, a man shaped by his boyhood in a Depression-era Jewish orphanage. The two life stories are woven together to form the fabric of this funny and suspenseful work of literary fiction.Clyde Aronson survives the cruelties of the seemingly bucolic orphanage but is left scarred. Brilliant and self-destructive, a popular high-school teacher and a callous womanizer, he yearns for a son to replace the relationship lost when his father abandoned him. Instead, he fathers two daughters. He resents most the one who most resembles him: the younger, Joanna.Joanna Aronson is thirty, alienated, and living in Southern California when she learns of her father''s puzzling illness. She returns home to Baltimore to help care for him. In the process, the two reconcile; Joanna struggles to come to terms with her own difficult history. Clyde promises to leave Joanna his collected papers, including a secret manuscript written long ago about life in the orphanage. After Clyde''s death, Joanna''s stepmother inherits the house and all of his possessions. She refuses Joanna any access. Determined, Joanna breaks into the house and steals the manuscript. The stepmother presses charges. Though fictional, The Orphan''s Daughter is based upon the time, from 1924 to 1934, the author''s father spent in the Hebrew National Orphan Home in Yonkers, New York.This evocative novel incorporates contemporary feminist themes, Jewish cultural history, and a nostalgic sense of place. By turns wrenching and delightfully humorous, The Orphan''s Daughter is a deft melding of history and psychological drama, a literary page-turner you won''t want to put down.

    Arnie Pepper is having the worst day of his life. The Pulitzer-prize winning sports columnist for the Washington Post has lived a thrilling, prestigious and (mostly) blameless existence over nearly four decades of rubbing shoulders with athletic royalty at all the most prestigious sporting events of our times. Then one day, within the confines of an impromptu gathering of fellow reporters, he tosses out a characteristic one-liner. Overheard and subsequently posted on social media, his joke goes viral. The ensuing hurricane of condemnation threatens to take his job and reputation, alienate his daughter, and decimate his obsessively observed inner world.#MeAsWell is the second novel from Peter Mehlman, an essayist, artist, comic, filmmaker, and longtime writer/producer for the iconic television show Seinfeld. At once surreal and too real, laughable and on point, the novel examines the inner and outer turmoil that results when a well-meaning but iconoclastic public figure, having failed to update his cultural operating system, unwittingly runs afoul of the new rules of woke America.In everyday interactions, and especially in his popular columns, Pepper’s sense of humor has always been his fortune—the gateway to a comfortable life as a journalist and enriching friendships with everyone from Billy Jean King to Barack Obama. An early proponent of Title IX–and a devoted single father of a daughter–Pepper has long been a champion of women’s sport. But now, despite his best intentions, he finds himself in the eye of a media storm that is turning darker and more dangerous, his life threatened by a hilarious retort—or at least it seemed hilarious at the time.Early Praise for #MeAsWell, A Novel“Mehlman’s narrative is spirited, political, and both hilarious and sadly reflective of the digital culture that can befriend or betray on a whim. A witty, culturally perceptive dark comedy.”–Kirkus ReviewsPraise for Mehlman's first novel, It Won't Always Be This Great “It turns out that not only can Peter Mehlman write funny television, he can write a funny book. Who knew?”–Julia Louis-Dreyfus, star of Veep and Seinfeld “Anyone who writes for television gets frustrated that they can’t write like Peter Mehlman. Now he’s going to make novelists mad too. Mehlman’s writing style is completely unique and creates an intimate bond between the narrator and the reader. You finish the book feeling as though you’ve made a new friend.” – Aaron Sorkin, Academy and Emmy-award winning screenwriter, producer, and playwright, whose works include A Few Good Men, The West Wing, The Social Network, and The Newsroom “Equal parts moral dilemma, subtle social commentary, and journey of self-discovery, Mehlman’s tale of a man forced outside the comfort zone of his ‘respectable, decent, low-impact, relaxed-fit, gluten-free world’ is both laugh-out-loud funny and deeply moving.” –Publishers Weekly
