The Doomed Colony of Mars by Daniel Barth has received an average user rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars based on 14 customer reviews. I received a note from the author saying this book would be free through January 17th.

Category: Science Fiction / Young Adult

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

In this realistic science fiction book, Maurice and his ecologist mother are shanghaied into going to Mars to try and save the Eureka Colony, which is on the verge of ecological collapse. On the way to Mars, Maurice meets Shannon Kappel, the daughter of an Irish flight engineer who has also been recruited in the rescue effort. Sparks fly as the cultured girl from Ireland meets our frontier boy from the Moon!

On Mars, Maurice becomes convinced that the problems plaguing the colony are not just accidents; he begins to see spies and saboteurs around every corner. Could someone living in this remote colony hundreds of millions of miles from Earth really be trying to destroy the environment upon which all their lives depend?

Mars is a challenging environment for Shannon, who has never been to space before; and for Maurice, who has never spent much time on a planet with real weather. Can they survive Martian storms and dust devils as they explore craters, ancient lake beds, and the fabulous Mariner’s Valley on Mars?

Maurice continues to look for evidence of sabotage, but there doesn’t seem to be any motive for one of the colonists to destroy their own home, and no one is quick to believe a notorious prospector and buggy pirate from the Moon! The tension mounts as Maurice and Shannon continue to explore; Maurice could be right about the saboteur – dead right!

November Surprise by Laurel Osterkamp has received an average user rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars based on 33 customer reviews. I received a note from the author saying this book would be free through January 17th.

Category: Romance / Political Fiction

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

Twenty years
Six presidential elections
Two brothers
One consuming love affair

For Lucy Jones, the distinction between love and politics is hazy at best. Both can be all-consuming, and either can lead to a heart-breaking loss or an exhilarating win. Whatever the case, if you’re seen as a loser, you probably are one. Lucy first learns this lesson in 1988, when she’s a shy girl, battling a high school bully and rooting for Dukakis. Through the years Lucy will experience stunning victories and agonizing defeats as she makes the choices that define her. Meanwhile, she also struggles to define her relationship with Monty, who comes in and out of her life like the changes in public opinion. Is Monty simply a one-night stand, a kindred spirit, or the love of her life? And by 2008, can he offer her a change to believe in?

Over the course of twenty years and six presidential elections, Lucy grows and adjusts with the times. Filled with snarky political and pop-culture references, November Surprise is about the journey we take to believe in a candidate, in love, and in ourselves.

November Surprise is a companion piece to Campaign Promises, which is free on Amazon. They can be read in either order.

*WARNING – the political views expressed in this book are fiercely liberal. If you’re a conservative, be prepared for your blood to boil.

The Lives and Prayers of Catholic Saints: Volume I (Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Anthony of Padua) by Wyatt North has received an average user rating of 5 out of 5 stars based on 6 customer reviews.

Category: Non-Fiction / Religion

 

 

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:

The Life and Prayers series combines professionally researched and written biographies of iconic Christian figures with an anthology of prayers.

The Lives and Prayers of Catholic Saints: Volume I combines the stories of Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Anthony of Padua.

Saint Anthony of Padua followed Saint Francis’ Order. The two were contemporaries, though they only met a few times. How were the two saints similar and how were they different?

Saint Francis of Assisi is quite possibly the most popular of all Christian saints. Perhaps it is his adoration for all living things or his unrelenting generosity that has made so many people open their hearts to him. Perhaps it is the deep conviction and piety expressed not only by the saint himself, but in his name, in the Franciscan orders throughout the centuries.

For centuries Saint Anthony of Padua, Thaumaturgist, Evangelical Doctor of the Church, has been regaled and venerated as a wonder-worker, eminent theologian, and preacher. To him infertile women, sailors, the poor, seekers of lost articles, to name a few, have prayed to intercede. Thousands upon thousands flocked to hear him preach, and witnessed his miraculous deeds.

We hope that with this book, the reader might realize an invitation to call upon both miraculous men, in a quest to find a renewed and challenged faith, hope, and love.
