A daily devotional

This is an audiobook of men and monsters who find themselves captivated by one another in the night. With the taste of skin and sweat and, yes, blood, on their lips, kisses that are pained and painful, and bodies left to cool on the sheets like spent seed. Twelve stories that feature vampires and their victims indulging in libidos and mortidos. In New Orleans, an old flame becomes a vampire's new meal. A new student at a boarding school discovers that the local urban legend is hovering outside his window and eager to come inside.

In many small, Southern hometowns, legends are created in an instant. Just mention purple Converse, mayonnaise, panty labels, or visiting the school lab after hours to someone that grew up in the '70s in Albertville, AL, and a different name comes to mind for each.

Now, Lieutenant Helga Ate and her Nighthawks must save the fleet while keeping the smuggler safely aboard the Ursula. But more is at stake than anyone realizes.

When Mott finds a puppy abandoned in a recycling bin, she’s ready to do everything she can to protect him. What she doesn’t realize, however, is that this is the legendary wolf Fenris, who’s prophesied to bring about the end of the world by eating the moon. Now Mott has found herself in charge of making sure the hungry pup—who’s busy munching on lampposts, cars, and water towers—doesn’t see all of California as an appetizer, while also hiding him from the Norse gods who are hot on his trail, determined to see the prophecy come true.

Part memoir, part meditation, and part manifesto, it’s a timely and heartrending portrait of perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of the American legal system.

Würden Sie gerne mehr erreichen, fühlen sich aber zu erschöpft? Rennen Sie immer schneller, aber das Ziel ist immer weiter entfernt? Viele Dinge scheinen weitaus anstrengender, als sie sein sollten. Woran das liegt und was man dagegen tun kann, beschreibt New-York-Times-Bestsellerautor Greg McKeown. Es mangelt meist weder an Motivation noch an Willen, ganz im Gegenteil: Wir arbeiten zu viel, überanstrengen uns und dann sind die Akkus leer. McKeown zeigt, wie man Ablenkungen reduziert, Prozesse vereinfacht, Probleme vermeidet und auch Unvollkommenheit akzeptiert.

In the tradition of Calvino’s Italian Folktales, Greg Sarris, author of the award-winning novel Grand Avenue, turns his attention to his ancestral homeland of Sonoma Mountain in Northern California. In 16 interconnected original stories, the twin crows Question Woman and Answer Woman take us through a world unlike yet oddly reminiscent of our own: one that blooms bright with poppies, lupines, and clover; one in which Water Bug kidnaps an entire creek; in which songs have the power to enchant; in which Rain is a beautiful woman who keeps people’s memories in stones.
