The subject of God and our origin as humans has been at odds between science and religion for centuries until just recently. Now, due to the latest findings and the merging of both fields of study, a greater view of the concept of the Creator that applies to all people equally representing both disciplines is available to benefit our entire global society. The universal comprehension of the human spirit as an extension of the creative energy of the universe now arrives for us to utilize the unseen forces of life and creation to rebuild ourselves and the world for future development and prosperity. Unification through intelligent awareness is the only way we, as a civilization, can have a bright future.

The King’s Frog Hunter by Ken Young

Book 1 of 3: The King’s Frog Hunter

In the ancient land of Ameram, where giant, man eating frogs lurk in the marshes of the valleys, an aging and vain king has succumbed to the evil that is grasping control of his kingdom. His selfish behavior blinds his wisdom, opening the doors of Castle Ambermal to a wicked sorcerer who uses potions and manipulations to steal the throne from the rightful heir, the king’s only child, Ekala. As the magician begins his plan to revive the power of a once-defeated order of black-hearted creatures, a sculptor of Stone Truth triggers a chain of events that reveal an ancient prophecy and its guardian, Thalmus–The King’s Frog Hunter. Along with his loyal companions, a giant tortoise, a Paint stallion, and a Great Horned owl, the mysterious hunter gathers a unique band of warriors to help the princess in her fight to save her father and the Kingdom. Together they embark on a dangerous quest that will challenge their courage, test their resolve and forge new friendships while battling to fulfill the Prophecy of Ameram.

About the author I started writing The King’s Frog Hunter for my daughter when she was a child. It was never meant for publication, simply to be a story for her about dangerous adventures of a father and daughter in a mysterious ancient land with good and bad people and creatures. I wrote into the story the values that my wife and I wanted her to learn and embrace: honor, integrity, courage, friendship, loyalty, graciousness and mercy. As she grew, so did the complexity of the storyline and the depth of the characters. It turned out they had more to say than I realized. My characters, both human and animal, continued to lead me into deeper themes, including perseverance, pursuit of wisdom, sacrifice, service to others, and the responsibility to fight the ever-present insidious aspect of evil. When my daughter received a postgraduate degree, she requested, as a graduation gift, that I finish the story and publish it for her. So, I wrote more, re-wrote and edited to weave the stories into a novel. Thus, was born The King’s Frog Hunter (the original title from her childhood). It took many years to mature on the page and then be transformed into a book. The writing (and the lessons learned), was a journey in and of itself. But, to my surprise, the characters were not done and led me to write two more of The King’s Frog Hunter story, Shadows of War, Book 2 and The Burning Battle, Book 3 to complete the trilogy–and their story that began so many years ago.

“Be wise and live in the Stone Truth.”

Silverdawntrilogy.com

When Wanda Maximoff died, she didn’t fall into darkness— she fell into memory, into the place where every truth lives. There, Mt. Vundagorn restored her with ancient Witness Magic—the power to see through fear, armor, and illusion.

Reborn in silver light, Wanda returns not as the Scarlet Witch… but as the Silver Dawn Angel, a being who reveals truth simply by standing with another’s pain.

Her presence shatters the kingdom of Latvireal, ruled by Victor Dravane—the Iron Regent, a man armored in control and haunted by unbearable loss. Wanda sees the soul behind the armor and the mask… and Victor, for the first time in years, feels seen.

As forgotten memories rise and buried wounds surface, Wanda and Victor are drawn into a quiet, breathtaking collision of truth, healing, and transformation.

Silver Dawn is a mythic reimagining of Wanda Maximoff— A story of memory-magic, redemption, and the love that survives even the end of worlds

The Green Glitch: What’s Behind the Devil’s Lettuce? by Jason Tremko

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GW9GWVPF

Marijuana has changed. The conversation hasn’t.

From 3% THC in the 1970s to today’s ultra-high-potency products, cannabis has evolved into a commercial powerhouse-reshaping culture, classrooms, and communities in real time.

In The Green Glitch, educator, author, U.S. Army veteran, and 12-step recovery leader Jason Tremko brings a rare frontline perspective to one of the most urgent social shifts of our generation. Drawing from research, lived experience, and years working directly with young people and families, Tremko examines the rise of high-potency THC, the normalization of use, and the mental health questions many are hesitant to ask.

This isn’t politics.

It’s not nostalgia.

It’s a reality check.

Look for the accompanying documentary now streaming on multiple platforms, The Green Glitch extends the investigation beyond the page with expert interviews and powerful real-world stories.

One message. Two formats.

A conversation we can’t afford to ignore.

Financial Fortress by Stephen Powell

https://www.amazon.com/Financial-Fortress-Stephen-Powell/dp/B0H4862V2S

A sudden medical crisis or market crash can destroy decades of hard work in an instant. Are you building a financial plan that only works when everything goes right?

In January 2022, financial professional Stephen Powell walked into the gym for a routine morning workout. Moments later, an aortic dissection caused him to collapse, paralyzing his left side, stripping away his speech, and leaving him with less than a 1% chance of survival. He survived by God’s grace, but he woke up to a harrowing realization: He was the sole breadwinner, and his traditional financial plan had no backup for a real-life crisis.

This life altering experience exposed a massive gap in modern financial literacy. Most people are expertly taught how to accumulate money, but they are never taught how to structure it. They blindly follow the standard formula buy stocks, maximize the 401(k), trust the process only to find themselves walking straight into the “Accumulation Trap.”

In Financial Fortress, Powell shares his deeply personal journey and strips away traditional financial jargon to reveal how wealthy families truly protect, access, and transfer their money. This book is an architectural blueprint for the everyday family provider who carries heavy responsibilities and realizes that a high income alone is not the same as security.

Through practical frameworks and eye-opening illustrations, Powell maps out the Four Pillars of a Financial Fortress: Protection, Growth, Control, and Legacy. You will learn how to transition from simple accumulation to true financial architecture, giving every dollar a distinct job.

Stop managing your future with hope and optimism alone. Build a system. Achieve clarity. Protect the people you love.

Fair Share: How Men and Women Can Create a More Equitable Workplace Together by W. Brad Johnson, David G. Smith

https://www.amazon.com/Fair-Share-Equitable-Workplace-Together/dp/1647826829

How outdated work norms undermine careers, caregiving, and gender equity—and how leaders can fix the system.

The workplace is broken—and it’s holding everyone back. Women still struggle to grow in their careers, while men who endeavor to do their part at home are often stigmatized. This disconnect means that even when men take part in flexible work arrangements or contribute to caregiving, women end up picking up the slack and missing out on professional opportunities.

If companies want to reach their full potential and achieve true fairness at work, the workplace must change—and it starts at the top. In Fair Share, gender-in-the-workplace experts W. Brad Johnson and David G. Smith offer a blueprint for how leaders can break down systemic barriers across the organization so that men can do more outside of paid work and women can take their rightful place in the ranks of corporate leadership. They suggest focusing on three key areas:

Rethinking company culture and the structure of work Going all-in on caregiving options and employee benefits Making gender fairness routine through process and policies Filled with examples and insights from both men and women, Fair Share offers a look at what companies can become when leaders finally break down the obstacles holding everyone back. By working together, men and women can create a better workplace, one where every individual can achieve what they want—both at work and at home.

https://www.amazon.com/Entity-Game-Jimmie-D-Robinson/dp/B0GYMMB7TJ

The Entity Game by Jimmie D. Robinson is a thrilling blend of science fiction, action, and historical warfare that spans centuries—and galaxies.

In the year 2129, an elite team of Space Defenders uncovers a mysterious metallic vault buried deep within a distant alien pyramid. But they are not alone. Rival alien forces wage a brutal battle to claim the powerful object, triggering a chain of events that unleashes twelve enigmatic energy beings—ancient entities with unimaginable intelligence and purpose.

These entities are not mere observers—they are players.

Diving into the minds and ancestral memories of humanity, they select warriors from different eras—Vikings, Zulus, ninjas, soldiers, and more—to represent them in a high-stakes, interdimensional “game.” Each faction brings its own brutal history, strategy, and instinct for survival into a contest where the rules are unclear and the consequences are deadly.

As past and future collide, and as humanity becomes an unwitting pawn in a cosmic competition, one question remains:

Who will control the game… and what happens to those who lose?

Packed with intense battles, imaginative world-building, and a unique fusion of history and sci-fi, The Entity Game delivers a gripping adventure that challenges the limits of time, power, and destiny.

The End of Us: A Story of Death, Deception and China’s Deadly Grip on US Healthcare by Tony Paquin

https://www.amazon.com/End-Us-Deception-Chinas-Healthcare/dp/B0CPWVGBCS

In 2020, Tony Paquin’s small medical supply company faced an impossible task—fulfilling a federal contract to procure one billion needles and syringes for America’s COVID-19 vaccination effort. What followed was a high-stakes battle against cutthroat factory owners, shady middlemen, relentless scammers, and even the Chinese Communist Party itself.

Through this ordeal, Paquin uncovered a dangerous truth: America’s dependence on China and foreign sources for life-saving drugs, medical supplies, and high-tech devices is a ticking time bomb.

To Then and Back Again: A Memoir Part One A Collection of Uh-Oh’s, No No’s and A Few OMG’S by Jerry Bryson McMillan

https://www.amazon.com/Then-Back-Again-Memoir-Collection/dp/B0CVBKXNCP

To Then And Back Again is a memoir written in two parts. It’s a book for those who enjoy the trials and tribulations of real-life people and feel they can or would like to relate to those whom they are reading about. It’s a memoir about only those richest, most interesting details concerning my life…or so I would like to think. It was written to convey those sometimes simple, sometimes complex, but many times emotionally charged experiences I’ve had during my life. Whether these emotions were elicited by the harsh realities of adversity that I, like many, have faced and overcome, or by the personal triumphs achieved through perseverance, and at times, through sheer willpower alone is for the reader to decide. I will, however, try to express them in such a manner as to allow the readers the chance to decide for themselves. We will embark on a journey to then and back again; an odyssey that will encompass a multitude of adventures that are at times disturbing and chaotic, and at other times fascinating and humorous. These adventures will range from overcoming desperation and loneliness as a result of a hidden identity, to the anguish of a best friend and his suicide that served absolutely no purpose nor had any meaning; a suicide that gained nothing for anyone…especially himself. From an insidious monster’s theft of a child’s innocence to things that just happen; catching you unaware, then kicks you right square in your pearly whites. The journey will certainly run the gamut of human experiences and emotions, and I will share my life with the reader if they wish to take the ride. And of which I’m also certain, if I do it suitably, then they will vicariously become the reader’s adventures as well. The first part is about my life from the time I was about eight years old, when our family home was destroyed by fire to when I was just out of high school and first went out to live on my own. The second part will be about my life from when I was about twenty until I was thirty something. It will begin when my dad and I built my first home until I finally moved from my hometown to go off to medical school.

Bliss in Triple Rhythm–A Toolbox for Poets: Nine Ways to Shape A Word Song: Shown in 300 Original Poems by Martin Bidney

https://www.amazon.com/Bliss-Triple-Rhythm-Toolbox-Poets/dp/1987402561

Mmartinbidney.org

This book of word songs in unexpected melodic patterns will surprise you by its equally unusual liveliness. I’m so eager to begin singing for you that, as you noticed, I’ve already written a prefatory poem in one of the varied kinds of triple rhythm units I’ll be illustrating (la LA la; weak STRONG weak; one TWO three; x/x). The strangest thing I’ll be doing in my collection is to bring about a resurrection of ancient stanza patterns embodying the musical structures I love. The uncustomary triple-rhythm stanza forms richly displayed will acquire a real if unlikely novelty by presenting tools so extremely old.

About the author Martin Bidney, Professor Emeritus at Binghamton University (NY), writes poetry books that are dialogues. In “Shakespair” he converses in Shakespearean sonnets with the 154 that the bisexual Bard himself wrote in the 1590s about his boyfriend and girlfriend. In “A Unifying Light” Martin converses with Qur’anic passages on the topic of Jews and Christians in the Qur’an and the Islamic virtues they embody. “East-West Poetry” shows Martin replying, in poems, to passages from both the Qur’an and Rumi. “Poems of Wine and Tavern Romance” offers 103 dialogues between Martin and Hafiz, the 14th century Persian pub poet he translates, a Muslim Sufi who was bisexual, like Shakespeare, and whom Germany’s greatest poet, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, called his “twin” brother! (Martin translates Hafiz from the same version Goethe used.) In fact, Martin has also translated Goethe’s own “West-East Divan” (divan means “collection”) and wrote conversational reply poems to all of Goethe’s 240 lyrics. Martin’s dialogue book with the greatest Polish poet, Adam Mickiewicz, contains, on facing pages, the sonnets he wrote in response to the “Crimean Sonnets” he translated from Polish. In “Like a Fine Rug of Erivan” he translates 39 Pushkin poems from Russian and recites them on a CD. His wide-ranging fascination with revelatory writing stems from “Patterns of Epiphany,” where Martin pioneered a method of analysis he has since applied to over 20 authors.

Jim is happy to share his stories so that the reader can learn and be better prepared for the adversity that they encounter in their life.

Life Lessons and Tales of Little MisFit: Book 1: Life Isn’t Always What It Seems by Dr. S K Grunin

https://www.amazon.com/Life-Lessons-Tales-Little-MisFit/dp/B0G63HGY6T

Ivy Sue Klutz (Little MisFit – LMF) finds one of her first memories confusing. This is when she is three and a half years old and is at her sister Lynn’s birthday party. Their cousin, Janet, asks the partygoers to guess what Lynn’s birthday present is as the truck delivering the present is backing up to the front porch of their house. Unbeknown to LMF, Janet told the other kids not to really guess that it’s a bike. You guessed – LMF guesses that her sister is getting a bike for her 5th birthday present. But instead of everyone being happy that LMF guessed the right thing, everyone is mad at her and none more than her mother. LMF runs off to her soon-to-be baby brother’s bedroom and tries to hide behind his dresser, with her mother hot on her

heels, yelling at her all the way. From this experience and many others through her 4th grade years in school, LMF learns the Life Lesson that Life Isn’t Always What It Seems.

Many people growing up are often made to feel inadequate or not to fi t in in situations, as a former probation officer, executive/life coach and professor, Dr. Susan Grunin, learned through humor and working with others – particularly children and young adults, how to fit in those uncomfortable situations. She believes that it is important that children learn at a young age how to manage these issues and to use humor to build their own self-esteem. Thus, she created, Little MisFit, (LMF) a fictional character, who through humorous tales, shares life lessons that she learns as she is growing up. Through these stories, LMF describes how she learned to overcome many life challenges and accept who she is as a person. Furthermore, the tales allow adults to share their own tales without coming off “too preachy” and to be able to share their own life lessons with their children and/or grandchildren or other loved ones.

The Book of You: Discovering Your God Story by Ericka P Greene

https://www.amazon.com/Book-You-Discovering-Your-Story/dp/1647734347

Erickagreeneministries.com

“No matter how your life story may read, God has another story, a true story that was written long before you were even born. Better yet, God wants to co-author that story with you.”

The Book of You is for the woman who has been broken by life, the woman who struggles with what God says about her and what she has experienced, or how she views herself.

The book takes you on a journey through the interwoven stories of five women in the Bible who were broken and discarded yet valued to be included in the lineage of Jesus Christ. Through the pages of their stories and others’ stories, Jesus wants to reconcile the seeming contradiction of your life story and the events that have left you feeling alone, without value or purpose. He wants to reveal your true identity and purpose throughout the pages of your life so that you can stand at the last chapter of your life having become who you are created to be and fulfill what you were created to do.

Theawakeningvoice.vonza.com

Are you observing the collapse – or discerning your role in it?

________________________________________

In an age of moral compromise, fractured identity, and silent surrender, Take a Stand: A Look Within confronts a truth many refuse to face:

The instability shaking nations is rooted in the instability within individuals.

This is not a political argument.

It is not cultural commentary.

It is a summons to accountability before God.

Dr. Shanequa E. Wilson exposes the war within – the internal erosion of conviction, the distortion of identity, and the quiet agreements made with fear, culture, and compromise. From generational foundations to modern-day deception, she dismantles false narratives that have shaped minds, weakened families, and diluted spiritual authority.

Through biblical examination, national reflection, and personal confrontation, this work moves beyond observation and into repositioning.

It challenges readers to:

– Examine the internal agreements fueling external chaos

– Discern the spiritual forces influencing societal direction

– Reclaim identity grounded in truth

– Stand with clarity in a time demanding courage

This book is not designed for passive readers.

It is written for those willing to confront themselves before confronting the world.

The battle is not merely around you.

It is within you.

And where you stand internally determines what you will stand for publicly.

The Man That I Would Become by Victor L Bretting

Brettingtexanranch.com

https://www.amazon.com/Man-That-Would-Become/dp/B0GVPR4SC9

Raised by a hardworking single mother whose grit, sacrifice, and faith shaped his life, Victor Bretting learned early that perseverance, responsibility, and character are forged through adversity.

An eighth-generation Texan descended from Stephen F. Austin’s original Old 300 families, Victor began his career as a water boy on a nuclear power plant construction project at nineteen years old. Over the next fifty years, he worked his way through the ranks of the construction industry, eventually retiring as a vice president. Along the way, he became an internationally recognized outdoorsman, setting multiple world hunting records across six continents.

But The Man That I Would Become is not a book about success.

It is a book about becoming.

Through stories of faith, failure, leadership, family, hunting, adversity, and personal growth, Victor shares the hard-earned lessons that shaped his life. From football fields and construction sites to hunting camps around the world, each chapter reveals the struggles, setbacks, victories, and moments of grace that helped form the man he would become.

This inspiring memoir explores what it means to take responsibility, persevere through hardship, lead with integrity, and trust God’s plan when the road ahead is uncertain. It is a story for anyone who has ever faced adversity, questioned their purpose, or wondered what truly matters in life.

Today, Victor and his family continue that mission through Bretting Texan Ranch (B-Tex Ranch) in North Texas, where wounded veterans, terminally ill children, and young men seeking purpose are welcomed to experience faith, fellowship, and the healing power of the outdoors.

The Man That I Would Become is more than a memoir. It is a reminder that life’s greatest achievement is not measured by titles, wealth, or accomplishments, but by becoming the person God created you to be.

This is Victor’s story and an invitation to visit the place where it all comes together: B-Tex Ranch.

About the author Victor Bretting is an 8th-generation Texan part of the original Old 300 families who settled this land under Stephen F. Austin. He started his career as a water boy at a nuclear power plant at nineteen is an executive nearly fifty years later. He holds multiple world hunting records across six continents. At his ranch in North Texas, he opens the gates to combat veterans, terminally ill children, and young men who need to meet God. This is his story. And it is an invitation to visit the place where it all comes together at The Bretting Texan Ranch (B-Tex Ranch).

With nearly five decades in the construction industry, he built his career from the ground up—earning every lesson through long days, hard work, and real responsibility. That same grit carried over into the outdoors, where he became a lifelong hunter and international sportsman, harvesting many species across five continents and earning multiple world records and top honors in the hunting community.

Victor is the owner of Bretting Texan Ranch (B-Tex Ranch) in North Texas, where he has created more than a hunting operation. He’s built a place where people come to reconnect with the land, with each other, and with something greater than themselves. His ranch stands as a reflection of his values: hard work, stewardship, faith, and treating people like family.

Victor is deeply committed to giving back through organizations like Hunting with Soldiers, which brings combat veterans into the outdoors to find healing from the weight of war, and Cross Trail Outfitters, a faith-based ministry dedicated to guiding young men and women through outdoor experiences rooted in Christ. At his ranch, these aren’t just events—they are moments of restoration, mentorship, and purpose. Whether it’s a veteran finding peace in the stillness of the land or a young hunter learning discipline and faith for the first time, Victor believes the outdoors is one of the last places where real transformation still happens.

My Life as a Doctor: Reflections on Burnout, Calling, and Retirement by Stan Eisele, M.D.

Authorstanmd.com

https://www.amazon.com/My-Life-Doctor-Reflections-Retirement/dp/B0H22RBR21

A deeply honest physician memoir about burnout, calling, retirement, faith, and the human side of medicine.

After forty years in medicine, Dr. Stan Eisele thought he understood what it meant to serve others. He was wrong.

In My Life as a Doctor: Reflections on Burnout, Calling, and Retirement, Dr. Eisele shares a personal and thoughtful journey through the life of a physician. From the childhood loss that first drew him toward the healing professions, to the demands of medical school, residency, patient care, healthcare bureaucracy, career burnout, and the emotional transition into retirement, this memoir offers a clear and moving look at what it means to live a life of service.

Dr. Eisele begins with the story of Chippers, his beloved childhood dog, whose illness became the first moment that opened his heart to medicine. What began as a desire to help animals slowly became a calling to care for people. His path led him through medical school at USC, internal medicine training, and decades of practice as a primary care physician.

But the dream was not always easy.

As the healthcare system changed, Dr. Eisele faced the pressure of insurance restrictions, HMO systems, corporate medicine, overwhelming documentation, emotional exhaustion, depression, and physician burnout. At times, the work that once felt like a calling began to feel like a burden.

Then came a turning point.

A move from San Diego to Eagle, Idaho, restored his sense of purpose and helped him reconnect with the heart of medicine: compassionate patient care, faith, family, and service. Later, a sudden life-threatening heart attack placed him in the unfamiliar role of patient instead of doctor. That experience changed his understanding of care, vulnerability, gratitude, and healing. In retirement, Dr. Eisele discovers that calling does not end when a career ends. Through community, music, faith, and service, he finds new ways to give back and a deeper understanding of what it means to live with purpose. This book is ideal for readers interested in: Physician memoirs and doctor stories Medical memoirs about burnout and healing Faith-based reflections on calling and purpose Retirement, identity, and life transitions Patient care, compassion, and the human side of healthcare Inspirational nonfiction about perseverance and service My Life as a Doctor is more than a medical memoir. It is a story of purpose, resilience, gratitude, faith, and the quiet strength found in showing up for others with compassion, humility, and grace.

Eternal Nights: Arrival by Richard Spegal

The Time Has Come.

In AD2019 they met their Progenitor and finally learned the truth about not only their origins, but the origins of all vampires. They also learned the horrible truth of the beginning of everything, and the scourge that was unleashed throughout the universe. A force that had gone unchecked for billions upon billions of years. They vowed to stop it… assuming it still existed.

In AD3325 the enemy was no longer hypothetical, and the human race was no longer alone.

The coming force is an enemy unlike anything the races of the galaxy had ever faced. A living hunger, capable of consuming entire galaxies. Sentient locusts with numbers that could blot out the stars. When they enter a galaxy, it is a sign that the End of Days has begun.

This is not an enemy that can be fought from the shadows.

Having lived for thousands of years, they have changed. Their entire family has changed. They will still stand in defense of the mortal races, but it will be on their terms. The mortal races will accept them, or they will disappear forever and let the galaxy burn.

The Shakeeth have arrived, and in order to face the coming darkness, Johnathon and Danielle will have to take their family into the light.

About the author I’ve been writing for years, but only started publishing about 3 1/2 years ago. I pride myself on adult oriented entertainment. The relationships, the language, the complicated plot threads, and a lot of the situations are geared toward an older audience. Honestly, I think anyone would get enjoyment from the reading, but the more life experience you have, the more you will be able to relate to what is happening. Regarding relationships, for example, my characters tend to be married or have a family. This isn’t the kind of romance that younger audience members can relate to.

I also pride myself on brutal realistic detail. The characters talk like real people, act like real people, think like real people, and make the decisions real people would make. No one goes “suddenly stupid” so that the plot can happen. No, my characters are the one driving the plot. That is how it should, but that’s been forgotten by creators over the last decade or so, which is why so much of everything fails now.

There are old editions on Amazon, because Amazon refuses to take listings down. I hate that because it can be confusing, but at least the old editions are marked as unavailable, or are otherwise obvious. The new stuff tends to be at the top. My 5th book should be out within a couple weeks of this posting, and number 6 is scheduled for Spring 2026. Beyond that, it’ll be my publisher’s decision as to how fast the books go live.
