Book Description
A wild race to the wild blue under… Rod Tritone, heir to the undersea Mer kingdom, has the looks and charm to have any mermaid he wants as his queen. He’s always given up his own preferences in order to train for his future role. But apparently that isn’t enough for the ruling Council. Prophecy decrees he marry a Mer Princess. The only problem is that the prophesied lost princess lives in the geographical—and utterly landlocked—center of the United States. Valerie Dumere has tried her hand at pretty much everything. She wasn’t cut out to be a construction worker, any more than the zillion other jobs she’s tried. Who is she supposed to be and what is she supposed to do with her life? Even running the oceans treasures gift shop she inherited is ironic, given that, thanks to a horrific childhood incident, Valerie is convinced she’s deathly allergic to seawater. Then Rod Tritone shows up, insisting she has another side to herself that only he can show her. He’s sexy, but is he also insane? If Rod fails in his quest, the kingdom he’s worked so hard for will go to another. Accompanied by a seagull named Livingston, and chased by dive-bombing birds, Rod convinces Valerie to set off with him on a madcap, cross-country race to the sea. Can they make it in time to fulfill the prophecy? And how can Rod convince his ocean-phobic mermaid princess there’s nothing to be afraid of—and love to be found— in the wild blue under?

Book Description
In the aftermath of World War II, Fritzi and Joe Stoddard marry and fly off into the wild blue yonder, where he becomes a test pilot and Fritzi the quintessential Air Force Wife. Along the way, Fritzi gives birth to four children--two girls and two boys--while Joe moves up in rank and pays his dues as a pilot and officer. For a few short years, the Stoddards are a shiny, adventurous American Air Force family, living wherever Joe's career takes them and blooming wherever they are planted. When they are transferred to a base in Italy, the Stoddards revel in the opportunity to explore Europe together. During the fireworks of an Italian festival, tragedy strikes, plunging the family into a free-fall of denial and grief. How will they navigate a future none of them ever imagined? "McCarthy populates this often moving story with a cast of fully drawn, authentic characters, shifting the narrative perspective seamlessly to see the world through each of their eyes. Fritzi, in particular, is a captivatingly complex figure who's defiantly independent but also endearingly vulnerable...this novel offers an insightful look into the rigors of military life and some moments of powerful emotion." -- Kirkus Review "Beneath the Wild Blue provides us with a stunning portrait of a family of six under the constant stress that is such a key element of military life. Temporary assignments (TDY) can suddenly drop out of nowhere, requiring the family's service member to abandon his or her family without any notice, often for weeks at a time. The family is under so much stress that older children are routinely drafted as surrogate parents. The spouse of the service member is expected to accomplish the impossible, and if that doesn't happen, the resulting snafu is recorded on the member's 'efficiency report, ' the key document that leads to promotions, plum assignments and higher pay." - James Kenney

Book Description
Over fifty years after the Situationist International appeared, its legacy continues to inspire activists, artists and theorists around the world. Such a legend has accrued to this movement that the story of the SI now demands to be told in a contemporary voice capable of putting it into the context of twenty-first-century struggles. McKenzie Wark delves into the Situationists' unacknowledged diversity, revealing a world as rich in practice as it is in theory. Tracing the group's development from the bohemian Paris of the '50s to the explosive days of May '68, Wark's take on the Situationists is biographically and historically rich, presenting the group as an ensemble creation, rather than the brainchild and dominion of its most famous member, Guy Debord. Roaming through Europe and the lives of those who made up the movement-including Constant, Asger Jorn, Michle Bernstein, Alex Trocchi and Jacqueline De Jong-Wark uncovers an international movement riven with conflicting passions. Accessible to those who have only just discovered the Situationists and filled with new insights, The Beach Beneath the Street rereads the group's history in the light of our contemporary experience of communications, architecture, and everyday life. The Situationists tried to escape the world of twentieth-century spectacle and failed in the attempt. Wark argues that they may still help us to escape the twenty-first century, while we still can.

Book Description
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. (Ps. 91:1) There is only one miracle cure for Casey Cardell, a space shuttle test-pilot left alone with his crippled toddler son after the deaths of his precious wife and infant daughter. But miracle cures take time and time is running out. NASA needs a test-pilot; Vanguard, the newest top-secret space shuttle is nuclear powered, lifts like a jet aircraft and travels at velocities unheard of. If it can get off the ground. Someone is trying to destroy the spacecraft and everyone involved with it. But pressures without, turmoil within, spiritual attacks and human frailty are no match for an all-knowing, all-powerful God. He brings beauty from the ashes, love from pain, testimony from defeat and success from sabotage in His time. But miracle cures take time. And time is running out...
