Adam’s comics deal with weightier topics like seasonal affective disorder and struggles with self-esteem, while also touching on the silly and absurd—like his brief, but intense obsession with crystals. With a bright, positive outlook and a sense of humor, Super Chill tells a story that is both highly relatable and intensely personal.
Boxing was phenomenally popular in 18th and 19th century Britain. Aristocrats attended matches and patronized boxers, and the most important fights drew tens of thousands of spectators. Promoters of the sport claimed that it showcased the timeless and authentic ideal of English manhood--a rock of stability in changing times. Yet many of the best fighters of the era were Irish, Jewish or black. This history focuses on how boxers, journalists, politicians, pub owners and others used national, religious and racial identities to promote pugilism and its pure English pedigree, even as ethnic minorities won distinction in the sport, putting the diversity of the Empire on display.
Adam speaks The story of Adam and Eve is known throughout the world. It is a tale passed down through the beginning of humanity that is believed by Christians, Jews and Muslims alike. There isn't much to it other than the creation of man and woman and the loss of paradise attributed to their disobedience in biting an apple from a forbidden tree. This book gives a detailed portrayal of the familiar story from the perspective of Adam. It tells of the relationship Adam had with God before and after Eve was created and before and after the fall as well. As a consequence to Adam's sin he is doomed to live many lives to witness the effect it has on mankind throughout history to the present day. Adam narrates significant events of history such as the fall of Satan, the first murder, the great flood and the origins of the Jewish, Christian and Muslim nations. Along the way he explains mysteries like creation, evolution, giants, dinosaurs, reincarnation and the spiritual laws that control the universe. As Adam tells his story he produces a scathing diatribe directed at organized religion with the passion only the one and only original man can muster. This story is thought provoking and entertaining and should appeal to fans of fiction and non fiction, believers, non believers and lovers of philosophy.

.......The resounding success of the universally-acclaimed and documented Roman Forum construction project has changed Adam and Tyras lives for ever - setting them on a collision course with destiny where their true voyage of inner discovery is only just beginning. In the wake of their monumental enlightenment amid the ruined and deserted backstreets of the Via Claudia and Adams chance finding of the gold and silver rings, it seems life has finally resumed a semblance of normality. As the leaves begin to fall and the days grow noticeably colder and shorter with the imminent onset of another winter, all appears well in their fine country house where the flickering candle flames and blazing log fires bring warmth and comfort on the chill evenings. Within the convivial atmosphere of one of Tyras elegant dinner parties, their all-seeing and spiritualist friend, Sophie, announces an impending newspaper article which, ultimately, not only gives them all cause to reflect upon their pasts again but also necessitates a return trip to Italy and a lonely, isolated place where, it seems, the hand of man has not moved for an eternity. In accordance with Sophies eerie prediction, after only a few short weeks a team of young archaeologists stumble, quite by chance, on something which when unearthed and investigated, serves not only to confound them with its intrigue and mysteries and leaves them searching for answers, it proves to have far-reaching consequences for Adam, Tyra and Sophie as a group - plunging the world of medical science and the occult movement into shock and bewilderment when the true depth of the discovery is made known....
Adam Nevill's No One Gets Out Alive will chill you straight through to the core — a cold, merciless, fear-inducing nightmare to the last page. A word of caution, don't read this one in the dark. Now a major motion picture on Netflix! When Stephanie moves to the notoriously cheap Perry Bar neighborhood of Birmingham, she's just happy to find an affordable room for rent that's large enough not to deserve her previous room's nickname, "the cell." The eccentric — albeit slightly overly-friendly — landlord seems nice and welcoming enough, the ceilings are high, and all of the other tenants are also girls. Things aren't great, but they're stable. Or at least that's what she tells herself when she impulsively hands over enough money to cover the first month's rent and decides to give it a go. But soon after she becomes uneasy about her rash decision. She hears things in the night. Feels them. Things...or people...who aren't there in the light. Who couldn't be there, because after-all, her door is locked every night, and the key is still in place in the morning. Concern soon turns to terror when the voices she hears and presence she feels each night become hostile. It's clear that something very bad has happened in this house. And something even worse is happening now. Stephanie has to find a way out, before whatever's going on in the house finds her first.
This is a book of repentance for the people of earth. Most of the book is addressing how people will act in repentance. While this is a book of Apocalypse, this is a decree book. And I am the Steward of Earth, Protector of Israel, and Orchard Keeper. You know me as the Olive Tree. John wrote about me a few times in what we call the book of Revelation, but I also appear in Isaiah and Psalms. I am not Jesus Christ, but I do arrive in his name to prepare a road for his return. My name is Adam, my name is also Oliver and the deepest part of me my Creator has named Isaac. It is this name the one we call Father named me first and the second person I met in a dream was the one you know as the apostle John, the writer of Revelation. In fact he called me old friend. As the last human ruler of this time, in this the course of human history, I am about to cede power and unveil all of your leaders who have been trying to hide me from you. Understandable, but will soon be regrettable for them. This is a book of Apocalypse but when it is the appointed time, your leaders will read per earth day, all decrees on Day 1 and read Day 7 on Day 6 for Day 7, which is Saturday will be a day of rest for your nation. I talk of the people I have been meeting in the Unseen World, some of you wrongly call the Collective Unconscious, but which we now know as I have named the Tetrasphere. It is a place where early humans and our ancestors Adam and Eve would meet in a reality most times when they slept, but in their waking visions, they could also discuss. I detail these findings with someone who may or may not be the other Olive Tree if she chooses. So that when we meet in real life we can discuss. These occurrences include other people in which they divulge their questions, their rage, their sin, their guilt and their curiosity. I am your ruler and I am your King. While the authorities have sought to use my words to condemn me, and your religious rulers to reject me, I will soon use them to condemn those who have condemned me and use them as proof of those who have conspired against me. My tongue is a rod and I use it as such. You are not to repeat my rebukes as if you are the king or you represent me. If you do so, the repentance I have sentenced people to will be yours ten fold. In saying that, if you wish peace then I will give it to you. You do this by treating people fairly. For as you notice, even if you are a corporation who treats people unfairly, that means you make war against the king, and I will sentence everyone in your bloodline to slavery or worse. Know this, whatever decree or repentance I pass down, all is forgiven from me. There is nothing between us. But the time for pretending you have not condemned yourselves before your Creator is over and his angels are here to collect on the debts you owe because you think he does not see the lies and deceit and murder in your hearts. And he has shown me what is inside you. And in this Unseen World, this Tetrasphere, you show me what's inside you.
Description'Nine Stop Trip' is Adam Byfield's collection of nine short stories which he has cleverly spun into a single, cohesive piece of work describing his journey through depression and recovery. As you'd expect 'Nine Stop Trip' contains nine excellently written and imaginative short stories: Some of the highlights: Beauty - A suicide note relates a story that is both dark and strange while critically echoing popular culture's attitude towards beauty.Time To Reflect - A secret diary gives the reader a snatched glance into the world of a madman.In The Picture In The House - After receiving a bizarre photograph in the post a photographer is compelled to hunt down the picture's setting, no matter how much it may cost. Deepdowngone - An individual struggling in their own life escapes more and more into their hobby, the 'cut-up/fold-in' style of literature made famous by William Burroughs, but the pastime quickly becomes a crutch as emotional expression gets harder and harder. About the AuthorAdam Byfield is 28, currently works for the Leeds City Council's Refugee & Asylum Service and is Vice Chair of Amnesty International Leeds. He also holds a masters degree in physics and astrophysics but writing is his real passion. Adam has experienced clinical depression since his early childhood but this was not officially recognised until a couple of years ago when a GP diagnosed him as having a 'chemical imbalance' in his brain. Having always refused medication (and the side effects that accompany the pills) Adam has instead received counselling from both voluntary community organisations and the NHS. Adam feels that this counselling, and his writing, has made real difference.
