The Riverman, Chapters 1-5

By: Aaron Starmer

Download the first five chapters of The Riverman, the first book in an exciting new series about the fine line between friends and enemies, fact and fiction, by Aaron Starmer! Alistair Cleary is the kid everyone trusts, the kid who wraps his fingers around secrets and never lets go. Fiona Loomis is not the typical girl next door. One day she shows up at Alistair's house with a proposition: she wants him to write her biography. Fiona says that in her basement there's a portal that leads to a magical world where a creature called the Riverman is stealing the souls of children. And Fiona's soul could be next. If Fiona really believes what she's saying, Alistair fears she may be crazy. But if it's true, her life could be at risk. It's up to Alistair to separate fantasy from reality. The Riverman, by master storyteller Aaron Starmer, will leave you questioning the responsibilities of friendship, the boundaries of imagination, and the true origin—and ownership—of the stories we tell.

Dead, White and Blue

The Zombie and American National Identity

By: Aaron W Clayton

Science fiction and horror television shows predict how the world might be different if zombies were real, or if artificial intelligence could develop consciousness. Pop culture critics reveal that these not-quite humans are often proxies for race, and the post-apocalyptic landscapes set the stage for reimagining social and political institutions. This book advances horror scholarship by placing those stories within a long tradition of mythologizing U.S. history. It demonstrates how Disney's Zombies reenacts the civil rights movement, how The Walking Dead fulfills Thoreau's fantasy against the backdrop of founding a new nation, and how Westworld permits visitors to experience the Old West while bearing witness to Indian Removal. Each of these narratives imagines a future that retells the past. The chapters within look at that tradition in order to understand the present.

The Last Kingpin

By: Relentless Aaron

From the emerging master of urban fiction comes another gritty, shockingly true-to-life suspense ride--a sweeping novel that takes readers from the streets of Harlem to the Brazilian jungle where the drug wars are being fought...to the death. THE LAST KINGPIN Meet Brian "Freeze" Carter. He's part pimp, part hustler. He drives a Bentley Continental T, which he can park anywhere he wants--because he owns the streets and demands respect. His bodyguards protect him at all costs...and live in fear of his wrath. Even the women who love him can't melt his heart. If only they could get deep into his soul, and pull him up from the underworld of the city's thriving drug industry, maybe Freeze could finally find a way to clean up his act--before it's too late... "A pure winner from cover to cover." --Courtney Carreras, YRB magazine But time is already running out. A Colombian drug cartel has plans in store for Freeze and his crew--and it's going to take a whole lot more than cold cash, hot girls, and a pump-action Maverick for Freeze to tame an unknown enemy that wants to do him in for good. ... "Relentless is very real." --98.7 KISS FM

The Riverman

By: Aaron Starmer

Alistair Cleary is the kid who everyone trusts. Fiona Loomis is not the typical girl next door. Alistair hasn't really thought of her since they were little kids until she shows up at his doorstep with a proposition: she wants him to write her biography. What begins as an odd vanity project gradually turns into a frightening glimpse into the mind of a potentially troubled girl. Fiona says that in her basement, there's a portal that leads to a magical world where a creature called the Riverman is stealing the souls of children. And Fiona's soul could be next. If Fiona really believes what she's saying, Alistair fears she may be crazy. But if it's true, her life could be at risk. In this novel from Aaron Starmer, it's up to Alistair to separate fact from fiction, fantasy from reality.

Hemlock

A Forest Giant on the Edge

By: Anthony D'Amato,Benjamin Baiser,Aaron M. Ellison,David Foster,David Orwig,Wyatt Oswald,Audrey Barker Plotkin,Jonathan Thompson

An appreciation of the beautiful, iconic, and endangered Eastern Hemlock and what it means to nature and society The Eastern Hemlock, massive and majestic, has played a unique role in structuring northeastern forest environments, from Nova Scotia to Wisconsin and through the Appalachian Mountains to North Carolina, Tennessee, and Alabama. A “foundation species” influencing all the species in the ecosystem surrounding it, this iconic North American tree has long inspired poets and artists as well as naturalists and scientists. Five thousand years ago, the hemlock collapsed as a result of abrupt global climate change. Now this iconic tree faces extinction once again because of an invasive insect, the hemlock woolly adelgid. Drawing from a century of studies at Harvard University’s Harvard Forest, one of the most well-regarded long-term ecological research programs in North America, the authors explore what hemlock’s modern decline can tell us about the challenges facing nature and society in an era of habitat changes and fragmentation, as well as global change.
