Kate tries to bury herself in the underground world of books and movies that her mysterious friend and mentor, Mrs. Hatpin, left to her before her sudden disappearance. Kate escapes into her dreams and travels to other realms of beauty and nature and magical possibilities. But as the horrifying specter of Shadowman begins to infiltrate her dreams, she realizes nowhere is safe. Then Kate sees him outside her school. Is he real? How could he be both in her dreams and in her everyday life? Could he be behind the epidemic of missing students? The dimensions of reality and imagination begin to overlap as clues to an existence beyond Greyworld emerge. Can Kate access this other world before it is too late and Protocol gains control of her mind? Can dreams be just as real as waking life?

Living in a Grey World
Author: A. J. Hawks
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1615664017
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
Many people consider themselves Christian, while everything in their life speaks of an un-Christlike existence, using the world's measurement of right and wrong rather than the black and white truths found in the Bible. Author A.J. Hawks' book, Living in a Grey World: Rediscovering the Black and White Truth of the Word is a call to arms against this kind of diluted, a la carte Christianity. Using Scripture as the basis for each argument, he goes head-to-head with the controversial issues prevalent in society today, proving that in order to be a Christian, you cannot just talk the talk, but must be willing to truly walk the walk. Living in a Grey World: Rediscovering the Black and White Truth of the Word addresses a variety of topics on the sin spectrum, from gossip and lying to sex, drugs, and homosexuality. Hawks speaks out to his fellow generation and asks: How do we manage to justify behavior that the Bible clearly outlines as sinful? How do we continually fail in our pursuit of the 'What Would Jesus Do' lifestyle? Living in a Grey World invites readers to get real with themselves, taking an honest look at their lives in comparison to the lives they as Christians are called to lead.

Zane Grey
Author: Thomas H. Pauly
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252092112
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 406
Book Description
Zane Grey was a disappointed aspirant to major league baseball and an unhappy dentist when he belatedly decided to take up writing at the age of thirty. He went on to become the most successful American author of the 1920s, a significant figure in the early development of the film industry, and a central player in the early popularity of the Western. Thomas H. Pauly's work is the first full-length biography of Grey to appear in over thirty years. Using a hitherto unknown trove of letters and journals, including never-before-seen photographs of his adventures--both natural and amorous--Zane Grey has greatly enlarged and radically altered the current understanding of the superstar author, whose fifty-seven novels and one hundred and thirty movies heavily influenced the world's perception of the Old West.
