“Combines spare text and art to deliver no small measure of laughs in another darkly comic haberdashery whodunit. . . . Hats off!” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) When a tiny fish shoots into view wearing a round blue topper (which happens to fit him perfectly), trouble could be following close behind. So it’s a good thing a certain enormous fish hasn’t woken up. And even if he does, it’s not like he’ll ever know what happened, right?

MOX
Author: Jon Moxley
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1637580398
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
A vivid trip through the mind of the top professional wrestler in the business—a nobody from nowhere who achieved his ambitions and walked away with the gold and the girl of his dreams. Ride alongside Jon Moxley as he retraces some of the highways traveled on his remarkable journey. Revel in the never-before-told stories about his early life in Cincinnati, Ohio; the gritty independent wrestling scene where he cut his teeth; the complicated corporate landscape of the WWE where he bucked against authority; and the rebellious upstart AEW, where he won the championship in 2020 and was finally free to achieve the vision of the wrestler he’d always wanted to be. With plenty of pitstops and revelatory insights, including grisly ultraviolent encounters, crazy characters who became lifelong friends, and his unforgettable matches in Japan, MOX is the riveting account of the life of a brawler. It is a tale written in blood and soaked in debauchery, with a good dose of wisdom accumulated along the way. More than a backstage pass into the arena, MOX is a ticket into the ring. Once inside, you’ll never look at pro wrestling the same again.

Eiger Dreams
Author: Jon Krakauer
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1599217708
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
No one writes about mountaineering and its attendant hardships and victories more brilliantly than critically acclaimed author Jon Krakauer. In this collection of his finest work from such magazines as Outside and Smithsonian, he explores the subject from the unique and memorable perspective of one who has battled peaks like K2, Denali, Everest, and, of course, the Eiger. Always with a keen eye, an open heart, and a hunger for the ultimate experience, he gives us unerring portraits of the mountaineering experience. Yet Eiger Dreams is more about people than about rock and ice—people with that odd, sometimes maniacal obsession with mountain summits that sets them apart from other men and women. Here we meet Adrian the Romanian, determined to be the first of his countrymen to solo Denali; John Gill, climber not of great mountains but of house-sized boulders so difficult to surmount that even demanding alpine climbs seem easy; and many more compelling and colorful characters. In the most intimate piece, “The Devils Thumb,” Krakauer recounts his own near-fatal, ultimately triumphant struggle with solo-madness as he scales Alaska’s Devils Thumb. Eiger Dreams is stirring, vivid writing about one of the most compelling and dangerous of all human pursuits.

The Angel Jon
Author: Richard Gartner
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 160247155X

Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Satan, the Master puppeteer, and 'Ruler of this Dark Age, ' brooded on his throne. Messages had been received by the Archdemon, Torath, who with others of his ilk were Overlords of Lieutenants such as Baloth. Torath was the final authority over demonic activity on the North American continent, accountable only to the dread Master himself. Baloth's area of endeavor, being the west coast of Torath's principality put him directly under the Archdemon. As with human authorities, they had a chain of command. Also as with human authorities, 'Power corrupted, and absolute power corrupted absolutely.' Of course the very nature of demons is that their primary function was that of corrupters of mankind through tempting man to follow his own sinful nature, so saying demons were corrupt or corrupted, was stating the redundant. But, could not levels of skillful rottenness be the odor of the day in even such as these? Torath had received second hand, the messages sent regarding the Lord's activity and reports of some kind of Angelic action by one of the Seraphim Angels of Light, in particular. He was apprising his Master of what little he knew of events in his jurisdiction, cursing expletives to himself about his ignorance of just what exactly Baloth was up to. "Excerpt from The Archangel Michael, second in this series, and soon to be out in print: " The two giant figures faced each other warily across the small clearing in the woods. Hosts of the enemy minions were ranked in phalanxes high into the heavens. Michael was undaunted by the lord of Hell and his hosts, and stood with his sword imbedded several inches in the mossy earth, his hands resting one atop the other on the pommel.
