Marooned in another universe, a musician leads a motley army to save two worlds, in an entertaining tale by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author. Jon-Tom just wanted to go home. Trapped in a world where animals speak and magic is real, the American college student yearned for an ordinary dorm-room life. But here his music has magical power—even if he can’t control it—which may be able to save the world from the army of the Plated Folk, whose sinister queen plans on killing and eating every warm-blooded mammal she can get her pincers on and taking over their lands. The great battle is coming, and Jon-Tom, whose posse includes a wizarding turtle, a cowardly bat, and an otter with a filthy mind, must raise an army to fight it. To find allies they must make an impossible journey, across mountains and rivers no one has ever passed before. Survival will be a miracle—but Jon-Tom is no ordinary musician.

Knowledge of the Hour
Author: Torati
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1728324785
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 65
Book Description
I heard people talking about the New World Order, and I asked myself, “What were the characteristics of the old one?” In this book, you will have an opportunity to hear from the Spirit of all knowledge. But this is just the beginning. We will understand that God has chosen many people, and they are a generation bridging two different times and spaces in the world. I will confirm that this message is not new to most of your ears, but why is it coming back? Many used their intellectual capacity to hold us in the spiritual captivity of idolatry, forgetting that there is time for everything. Many people believe in the existence of spirits and supernatural communications but are allergic to anything in contradiction of the church’s involvement in causing people to stray from the true God, who is the Lord of Hosts. “I acknowledge your great wisdom, Father God of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these spiritual truths from the wise and intelligent and revealed them to those seeking God’s will and purpose” (Matthew 11:25). Throughout the ages, the Almighty God has kept sending prophets, messengers to restore the glory of God on earth by exposing the spiritual Old World Order established under the leadership of Constantino Augusto on 03/07/321, after Jesus Christ ascended to heaven. This was the time the spirit of the Antichrist succeeded in its coup to infiltrate science, religion, and politics. It’s time to bring you out of faith confusion. This book is coming to challenge those who continue to think that God does not care about names of days, months, and the calendar. After you read this book, something positive will start to influence your mind-set. Please follow your conscience.

The Ancient Egyptian Books of the Afterlife
Author: Erik Hornung
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 9780801485152
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This volume offers a survey about what is known about the Ancient Egyptians' vision of the afterlife and an examination of these beliefs that were written down in books that were later discovered in royal tombs. The contents of the texts range from the collection of spells in the Book of the Dead, which was intended to offer practical assistance on the journey to the afterlife, to the detailed accounts of the hereafter provided in the Books of the Netherworld. The author looks closely at these latter works, while summarizing the contents of the Book of the Dead and other widely studied examples of the genre. For each composition, he discusses the history of its ancient transmission and its decipherment in modern times, supplying bibliographic information for any text editions. He also seeks to determine whether this literature as a whole presents a monolithic conception of the afterlife. The volume features many drawings from the books themselves.

The Key to the Gate
Author: EksAyn Aaron Anderson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780990395201
Category : Industrial marketing
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
Anyone can approach an organization; not everyone can get in. The first step in business-to-business sales is getting in the door. It doesn't matter if you have the greatest product or the most dynamic presentation if you can't get in front of the decision maker. That decision maker is often highly guarded by a savvy gatekeeper who screens out sales calls--leaving even talented, experienced salespeople frustrated by their inability to get access to the right people. The experience of selling to a business isn't limited to salespeople. At some point, many people find the need to approach an organization, whether it is selling an idea or service, for fundraising needs, or even just selling personal credentials in an interview or audition. Success in these "sales" approaches comes through impressing key decision makers. Unlike many sales books and trainings that focus on what to do once you have an appointment to sell, The Key to the Gate addresses how to get the initial appointment and offers proven methods for getting through to the decision makers. Influence isn't always where you expect, and The Key to the Gate presents specific principles and techniques that can work wonders in getting you the appointment.
