(Chronicles of Revenge, the beginning) Sue Young was hurtling through London on the back of a high powered Fire blade, she was heading for a flight for India to meet Matt and tell him her secret, that she was carrying his baby. Commander Featherstone from MI5 had sent men to tail her and Matt’s friend Abhay made sure they didn’t make it. Sue would now follow Matt and Wolf as they searched for the last two remaining men who had killed his two sons. Matt’s keen senses told him that somehow he was being lead, the reason could only be his ultimate death, but by who was still a mystery to him not that he cared anyway. His life was of no importance revenging his sons were and would always be his final goal no matter what the cost. Sue would learn a lot more about him plus have many death defying experiences and come to understand that killing to defend your own is easier than she would had ever thought before. After leaving Abhay they headed for Kathmandu, he had information that Steve Butler was there and with revenge in his eyes and death in his heart they drove on.The confrontation with Butler showed her another side to the troubled man that was Matt North, Sue would shed many tears some in sorrow and some in joy. Taking a cape sized ship they now head for Costa Rica and a final battle with Ed Barker. Sue would learn more about Matt’s past as they travelled on, the return bare knuckle fight with Ray Smith, how he and Wolf met and about his now dead wife Linda and how they became a couple. Matt contacts an old friend Alfie O an arms dealer and quarter master for non-official organisations, he sends him a list of what he needs to be waiting for him when he arrives at the port of Lemon. Alfie said he could organise transport form India by ship, what he doesn’t tell Matt is that there would be a ship to ship transfer involved.Matt and Wolf had done a ship to ship before and hated them so much he swore he’d never do one again, until now his need for revenge always overrode anything even his own life. After his near death ship to ship Matt meets up with Alfie O and to his surprise some old friend is waiting, Along with Mary Weston. Mary Weston was someone Matt never believed he’d see again and never thought for a moment she’d blackmail him. Some days into their journey Matt finds that his old friend has terminal cancer and there only wish is that Matt will give their girls the cash, a promise he will try to keep.The battle with Barker was epic and deadly, the flight back to civilisation had many deadly moments and to Matt’s complete disbelief things take a very strange turn. Back in the UK Matt meets up with Mary Western again in Regents Park. There is one last and strangely unbelievable twist for him, looking up at the top of a block of flats Sue notes his face change she’d seen that look and knew it meant trouble.In the cross hairs of a high powered rifle aimed by an expert marksman is Matt’s head and the shooter whispers. “Got yer, now you’re mine.” As his finger tightened around the trigger.

In Both Ways Edward Goble looks into the heart and life of a local minister battling temptation, success and fidelity. A pastor himself for many years, Goble brings to life a story that is full of humor, heartache, madness and grace. With the seemingly epidemic fall of popular ministers to infidelity, this is a topic that is timely and important to the church.Almond Grove, California is home to the growing Community Chapel Church and their charismatic young pastor, Madison Enright. Madison and his newlywed bride, Jill, moved to the struggling church right out of college and, after sixteen years of dedication, had forged it into one of the most exciting, fastest growing churches in the Bay Area. From all appearances, Madison had it all, but successfull ministry has a way of introducing temptations into life that can undo even the greatest among us. An old friend, Dave Bean, himself trying to discover the meaning of life and his purpose in the world, comes alongside Madison at his point of greatest need. But will Madison be able to confide in his best friend, or will he try to manage his own demons without the support of those closest to him. In Both Ways Edward Goble looks into the heart and life of a local minister, a position he held for many years, and brings to life a story that is full of humor, heartache, madness and grace. It is, on one hand, a sad story of sin and brokenness, while on the other, an encouraging message of hope and faith. Views: 278

A chapbook from Nathaniel S. Rounds."If the world were a forgotten lunatic asylum, with electro-shock rooms that doubled as greasy diners, on the edge of the universe without much hope except for the ringmaster of the last circus… then Nathaniel S. Rounds would be the historian… this man may even be the ringmaster."--Phillip Vermaas, Misfits’ MiscellanyThis is my story. I'm not Merlin. But it seems that something is. Am I insane? Did it really show me a great 'Science' that would save the world? Or was it all a mad chase that would serve only to destroy my life? But I did see so many things. Everything I saw. Goddesses. Holy Grails. A giant sword of power rising from a huge stone. An incredible Being of Light. I was told to go to all of the great places. So I went where I was told... By something I could see only in dreams... And waking visions... Or that I could talk to by using a bent piece of copper rod only. Am I crazy? Have I gone insane? But when I went where I was told amazing things did happen. Even earthquakes happened sometimes. And now? Now the great revolutions are happening. Exactly like I was told they would. And all because of this 'Science' that something that is Merlin showed me. Hear my story. Views: 278
