"Scratch a cynic, and you will find a disappointed idealist."George Carlin's insightful observation accurately described Frank Young on the day of his high school graduation in 1968. Growing up in the small San Joaquin Valley town of Modesto, California, his view of the world was the one he wished it to be rather than the one that existed outside his community. That would change dramatically on a sultry evening in 1969 when he set foot in India.With Bangalore as the backdrop, 47 Aerogrammes charts Frank's journey in a remarkable country that would shape this nineteen-year-old's view of the world and change him in ways he could never have imagined. Landing in Calcutta in September 1969 with sixty-two other classmates from Callison College in Stockton, California, he quickly confronted the reality he would face over the next nine months: how does one break free from one's comfort zone and adapt to a culture that bears little resemblance to your home 8700 miles away? In countless encounters with people and places as he crisscrossed the Indian subcontinent, his passage through India became his passage to adulthood. From the generosity of strangers in cities and villages, to unctuous bureaucrats, to an orthodox Brahmin family who demonstrated that parental love speaks the same language in any culture, his year in India transformed him in ways neither friends nor family back home would recognize. But his biggest revelation came four decades later upon landing in New Delhi as a foreign service officer on assignment in India for the US Agency for International Development: the transformation had never stopped. Through journals, letters and photographs taken a half century ago, this book takes the reader through Frank's many adventures where at the end of the day, "In India, anything is possible."

They then made their way through the Cave of Ruins to find the Holy Sword that they were seeking, the Lucent Sword. However, finding the sword and ridding Darien of the evil that plagued him from his using the Shadow Sword--one of the Demonic Swords--was only part of the battle. The Empire of Lumin'Valeria still loomed over head. The Empire was not only their problem, but everyone who lived on Gaianterra.

Will they even be able to complete their missions before Lumin'Valeria could strike? Only time would tell. Meanwhile, Sampson Rockfell is on the trail of a traitor. Will he find whom he sought? Or will this hunt be the end for the Hunter? Jack Destin is still on the trail of the vampires whom he blamed for the murder of his family.

Or is he about to unleash a horror upon the world that no one has seen in over a thousand years? Finally, there are the elves. What impact will their actions have on the world of man? Will they help save the world from destruction at the hands of the Lumin'Valerian Empire? Or will they only succeed in starting a war between elves and men?

Do you ever wonder what your cat is thinking when he or she stares at you? How does your cat see the world or events in its life? Well, you are in for a surprise when you open Cat Tales. It contains four short stories about cats, three of them narrated by cats. The first is about an orange tabby cat and its life with two other, possibly oddball, cats in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. The second story is about a calico cat living with two Golden Retrievers on a farm in Illinois and the problems they have had with uninvited visitors. The third takes us to Camden, Maine, and relates the exploits of a beautiful Maine Coon cat. Our last story takes us once again to Camden where we learn about the exploits of a cat sleuth named Agatha. Be prepared to chuckle when you read these lighthearted stories about felines so many of us love.

Noubaissem, in the Sara dialect in Chad, means "e;God is with me."e; Baroumbaye means "e;to call me one day."e; If the author's name has accomplished anything in his life, it is much more divine grace.Grace is from the Hebrew word chanan or the Greek word charis, meaning "e;the state of kindness and favor toward someone, often with a focus on a benefit given to the object"e; (Strong's Greek 5485). Grace is what God does because he is gracious. Every action of God toward us involves his grace. The author's essay in elementary and secondary would never have reflected the story of the man who has to be educated, get married, have five children, and come to live in the United States. But here he is at fifty-seven, writing a biography that mentions everything God has planned for him. That is not all because there are still a lot of hidden parts that will happen before the author meets him in heaven.
