Left for dead on the range, a cowboy vows revengeFifty thoroughbreds. Three hundred miles. Four thousand dollars. Driving those horses across Cheyenne territory is a crazy risk, but the only alternative is to give up the ranch. For the sake of his boss, Kendo takes the job—so long as he can bring seven good men with him. But in this part of the West, few trustworthy men can be found. The trouble comes not from the Cheyenne, but from three of Kendo's fellow riders, who don't hesitate when they get a chance to take the herd and leave Kendo bleeding to death on the open range.Lost, exposed, and without a horse, Kendo needs a miracle to make it back to civilization. But he has far bigger plans than mere survival. First, he wants the bullet out of his back. Next, he wants to rescue the herd. And then, when the time comes, he will savor the bloody flavor of vengeance. Views: 565

When a young woman marries her vampire love, she learns a disturbing secret.The first thing Mixer knew with certainty was that he was hungry. The feeling grew more intense each day until it became unbearable and Mixer began to lash out. Quietly, steadily he ate away at his enemy and, in a few weeks, where there had been two, now there was only one.History had been erased. The land had been eroded and the global population had crashed. Into this new world came an evolutionary change, a genetic mutation that could make humans perform in ways they'd never done before. Those who survived learned to fear the abilities of those who carried the gene and banished any who displayed the slightest difference. As time went on, the gene appeared to die out. But it wasn't entirely gone. In a world still largely ignorant and illiterate, nine children struggle to survive, sometimes even against their own. Views: 565

One is: you have a soul. The other is: if you don't look after this one you won't be issued a replacement.Bestselling author John Ortberg writes another classic that will help readers discover their soul and take their relationship with God to the next level.
