Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Newbery Medal-winning author Matt de la Peña’s The Hunted, the sequel to The Living, is a high-energy, action-packed survival story. “De la Peña has created a rare thing: a plot-driven YA with characters worthy of a John Green novel.” —Entertainment Weekly on The Living, A- For those left living, it’s kill or be killed. When Shy pulled himself from the wreckage of the Paradise Cruise luxury liner, he met Addie. Addie was rich and blond, and with no one else to trust, she told Shy a secret she never should have revealed. It’s a secret that people would kill for—have killed for—and she has the piece that could turn everything on its ear. The problem? Shy has no idea where Addie is. Back home in California seems logical, but there are more ways to die back home than Shy could ever have guessed. And thanks to what Shy knows now, he’s a moving target. Praise for The Hunted: “Readers will be drawn to the raw and gritty setting, fast-moving plot, and diverse characters worth rooting for.“—School and Library Journal "Between [the] fast-paced plot and meaningful, diverse character development, this is a great crossover for fans of both thrillers and more character-driven novels."-Booklist Praise for The Living: “De la Peña has created a rare thing: a plot-driven YA with characters worthy of a John Green novel.”-Entertainment Weekly, A- “Action is first and foremost. . . . De la Peña can uncork delicate but vivid scenes.” —The New York Times “[The Living] is special because of its extraordinary protagonist, Shy, who I haven’t been able to shake from my mind in the weeks since I read the book.”-John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars "There's no way to classify The Living. It's everything I love mixed into one fantastic, relentless, action-packed story. As always with Matt, the characters are the best part. So real. I loved this book."-James Dashner, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Maze Runner series [STAR] "An addictive page-turner and character-driven literary novel with broad appeal for fans of both."-Kirkus Reviews, Starred [STAR] "An excellent, enthralling ride...a great read for those looking for adventure and survival stories."-VOYA, Starred A Pura Belpré Author Honor Award Winner An ALSC 2014 Notable Children's Book Pick

Gunpowder Empire

By: Matt Cole

Raw hatred ravaged the range land! Luke Bragg - a man with a dark past - has come to claim the sheep ranch his uncle left for him. Only once he arrives in Preston Gulch, Bragg soon finds himself in the middle of a range war with the valley's two biggest cattle ranchers. This clash of interests, which Bragg tries to avoid, just escalates and he is the one the town thinks is the reason why. The cattlemen try to bolster their position by claiming that his sheep kill the grass by nibbling it too close and trampling the roots with their sharp hoofs. Then when the daughter of another rancher comes to town after the murder of her father, the truth about his murder sends the valley into chaos and threatens the empires that they had established with gunpowder.

Pinnacle City

A Superhero Noir

By: Carter Matt,Fiona J. R. Titchenell

Pinnacle City is many things to many people. To some it is a glittering metropolis, a symbol of prosperity watched over by the all-star superhero team, the Pinnacle City Guardians. Beyond the glitz and glamour, there is another city, one still feeling the physical and economic damage of the superhero-villain battles of generations past. The lower class, immigrants, criminals, aliens, sorcerers, and non-humans alike call this city home, looking to make a living, which is becoming increasingly difficult as the two sides of the city seem prepared to boil over into a violent conflict. Private investigator Eddie Enriquez, born with the ability to read the histories of objects by touch, still bears the scars of his time as a youthful minion for a low-level supervillain, followed by stints in prison and the military. Though now trying to live a straight-and-narrow life, he supports a drinking problem and painkiller addiction by using his powers to track down insurance cheats. When a mysterious woman enters his office asking him to investigate the death of prominent non-human rights activist Quentin Julian, a crime the police and heroes are ignoring, he takes the case in the hopes of doing something good. Superhero Kimberly Kline has just hit it big, graduating from her team of young heroes to the Pinnacle City Guardians with the new codename of Solar Flare. With good looks, powers that include flight, energy manipulation, superhuman strength, durability, and speed, as well as a good family name, the sky is the limit for her. Upbeat, optimistic, and perhaps a little naïve from the upper-crust life she was raised in, she hopes to make her family, and the world, proud by being the greatest superhero she can be . . . but things aren't always as they seem. From the minds of Matt Carter and Fiona J. R. Titchenell, Pinnacle City is a pulpy, throwback noir of yesteryear, where two unlikely people from opposite sides of the track must team up to do good in a world full of so much bad.

More Than a Season

Building a Championship Culture

By: Dayton Moore,Matt Fulks,Alex Gordon,Ned Yost

Provides a blueprint for becoming a champion, both on and off the field When Dayton Moore arrived in Kansas City in 2006, the Royals hardly resembled a contender. The general manager inherited a major league club that had just one winning season in the previous decade. Moore, a Kansas native who grew up as a Royals fan, implemented a plan to return the franchise to its glory years. Though not without a few bumps in the road, that plan came to fruition in 2014 and 2015, as the Royals reached the World Series both years and were corned 2015 World Series champions. In More Than a Season, Moore shares how his faith and leadership principles guided his rebooting of the Royals. The general manager describes how he built one of baseball's best farm systems and international scouting departments of out nothing. He shares insight on how he persevered through six consecutive losing seasons and the critical response to controversial trades of Zack Greinke and Wil Myers—transactions that ultimately yielded the foundation of a champion. Full of never-before-told stories from inside the Royals organization More Than a Season features an introduction by William F. High, CEO of the National Christian Foundation Heartland. This updated edition features an all-new prologue and an additional chapter celebrating the 2015 World Series championship season.

Bullitt

The Cars and People Behind Steve McQueen

By: Matt Stone

Get the behind the scenes view of arguably the most iconic automotive movie car and scene in history. Ask any automotive enthusiast what his or her favorite chase scene to appear in a movie is, and the majority will respond with "Bullitt." It has made the top 5 in every list covering the best automotive chase scenes in history. But the appeal isn’t just about the chase scene. Shot entirely on location in picturesque San Francisco in 1968, the movie not only features the historic chase scene but also many outdoor scenes filled with cars and architecture of the period that are filmed in crisp clear color. The movie was the fifth-highest-grossing film for 1968, it was well received by critics, and the chase scene won Franks P. Keller an Oscar for editing. In Bullitt: The Cars and People Behind Steve McQueen, you will get the complete behind the scenes picture of how all the action was coordinated and filmed. Included are the ideas behind the making of the movie, an interview with Director Peter Yates, production stills, and the planning for the scene. Also covered is the cast, the building of the cars used in the film, and the how and why the stunts were choreographed and filmed. To round out the story, an examination of what happened to the cars is included as well as coverage of the multiple Bullitt Edition cars released by Ford after the film, including the latest 2019 edition. While several books have been published about Steve McQueen, the "King of Cool," never before has there been a thorough examination of this specific film and these specific cars. This edition is a welcome addition to the library of any McQueen, Mustang, or automotive film history fan.

Marketing Rugby to a Tier. Sport in the USA and Marketing

By: Matt Wunderli

Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: "B", London Metropolitan University (ESCEM), course: International Marketing Communications, language: English, abstract: The sports market in the U.S. is as competitive as ever, doubling the size of the automobile industry in 2009. It has reached an estimated worth of $213 billion , with sports both traditional and non-traditional vying for attention. In the middle of that sports market sits rugby. Rugby union is a global game played in many countries across the world. It has reached and inspired millions of sporting fans worldwide via its events like the Rugby World Cup (IRB). The sport is considered an emerging sport in the U.S. and consumer loyalty remains hidden in the small rugby community throughout the country. There appears to be many people that are aware of rugby, however, the sport hasn’t made a big enough impact to attract more spectators, or even sponsors. There is a small and loyal rugby community in the United States that appears to be growing, but becomes stagnant in growth post collegiate level. The proliferation of a tier I rugby venue in the USA, built on a foundation of brand loyalty and a growing long term fan base through marketing methods and development, is the driving force behind this study.

The Destroyer of Worlds

A Return to Lovecraft Country

By: Matt Ruff

“Another virtuoso blend of horror, action, and humor. . . . Fans will find this a worthy sequel.”—Publishers Weekly In this thrilling adventure, a blend of enthralling historical fiction and fantastical horror, Matt Ruff returns to the world of Lovecraft Country and explores the meaning of death, the hold of the past on the present, and the power of hope in the face of uncertainty. Summer, 1957. Atticus Turner and his father, Montrose, travel to North Carolina to mark the centennial of their ancestor’s escape from slavery, but an encounter with an old nemesis leads to a life-and-death pursuit. Back in Chicago, George Berry is diagnosed with cancer and strikes a devil’s bargain with the ghost of Hiram Winthrop, who promises a miracle cure—but only if George brings Winthrop back from the dead. Fifteen-year-old Horace Berry, reeling from the killing of a close friend, joins his mother, Hippolyta, and her friend Letitia Dandridge on a trip to Nevada for The Safe Negro Travel Guide. But Hippolyta has a secret—and far more dangerous—agenda that will take her and Horace to the far end of the universe and bring a new threat home to Letitia’s doorstep. Hippolyta isn’t the only one keeping secrets. Letitia’s sister, Ruby, has been leading a double life as her white alter ego, Hillary Hyde. Now, the supply of magic potion she needs to transform herself is nearly gone, and a surprise visitor throws her already tenuous situation into complete chaos. Yet these troubles are soon eclipsed by the return of Caleb Braithwhite. Stripped of his magic and banished from Chicago at the end of Lovecraft Country, he’s found a way back into power and is ready to pick up where he left off. But first he has a score to settle . . .

Paranoid Nation

The Real Story of the 2008 Fight for the Presidency

By: Matt Towery

Political insider Matt Towery documents the frustrations many Americans feel as they have been abandoned by a political system that has lined the pockets of select businesses, refused to consider a Fair Tax, ignored immigration and the impact of globalism, chosen to spend money and lives in places across the world, all while facing one of the greatest economic and monetary crises in our history. Towery takes dead aim at the Washington Establishment--from media, to lobbyists, to the top leaders in both parties. He sheds valuable and often controversial light on why we're fed-up with national politics and how the American Presidency has devolved over the past fifty years into a state of delusional paranoia. Backed by unparalleled and as yet unrevealed polling data, Towery argues that the integrity of our political system is threatened in ways never before seen, perhaps forever changing our country and its democracy.--From publisher description.

Third Reich Swastikas Were S Letters for Socialist:

The Usa's Pledge of Allegiance Was the Origin of Hitler Salutes & Nazi Behavior

By: Ian Tinny,Pointer Institute,Matt Crypto

Third Reich" is a term used by so-called scholars and news journalists (and Wikipedia posters) to hide the fact that Adolf Hitler called his regime "Socialism," according to author Ian Tinny. His book reveals the amazing discoveries of the symbologist Dr. Rex Curry including: That scholars, journalists (and wakipedia) cite no example of Hitler ever using the term "Third Reich." Other writers use the terms "Nazi" and "Fascist" and "Third Reich" as if Hitler tossed them around all the time. Dr. Curry shows that those terms were not used as self-identifiers by the self-avowed socialist Hitler. And here are more revelations: (1) Swastikas represented crossed "S" letters for "SOCIALISTS" under Adolf Hitler; (2) Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior originated from the USA's Pledge of Allegiance to the flag; (3) The Nazi salute came from the military salute (as used in the original Pledge of Allegiance in the USA); (4) Hitler's book Mein Kampf does not contain the word "Nazi" in any form; (5) Mein Kampf does not contain the phrase "Third Reich"; (6) Mein Kampf does not contain the word "Fascist" ever as a self reference by Hitler; (7) Mein Kampf does not contain a single use of the word "swastika"; (8) Nazis did not call their symbol a "swastika"; (9) Swastikas represented crossed "S" letters for "SOCIALISTS" under Hitler; (10) Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior originated from the USA's Pledge of Allegiance to the flag; (11) The Nazi salute came from the military salute (as used in the original Pledge of Allegiance in the USA); (12) The word "Fascist" is related to the word "faggot"; (13) Vienna, Austria (Hitler was born in Austria) is the origin of the word "wiener"; (14) The word "Kampf" in Hitler's "Mein Kampf" is related to these words: campaign, champagne, champignon, champion, champ, camp, and campus; (15) Learn about the socialist Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part); The Third Reich salute was performed by public officials in the USA from 1892 through 1942. What happened to the photographs and films of the American fascist salute performed by federal, state, county, and local officials? Those photos and films are rare because people don't want to know the truth. Public officials in the USA who preceded the Adolf Hitler and the Benito Mussolini were sources for the stiff-armed salute (and robotic chanting) in those countries and other foreign countries. Explore how the "ancient Roman salute" myth originated from the city of Rome in the state of New York (not Italy), Francis Bellamy's hometown. Learn about Mussolini's strange gift to the city of Rome, NY: a statue of two human male infants suckling on a female wolf. That statue remains on display in Rome, NY. Replacing conveniently manufactured myths with surprising research, Tinny reminds us of the history of robotic chanting en masse and on cue, accompanied by violence for anyone who refused to submit. Who are the real Nazis in our midst? According to the author Ian Tinny, the quintessential Nazi isn't an SS storm trooper anymore; it is a public school teacher brainwashing children every day for 12 years of their lives. The pledge remains the first bullying that begins each day in government schools (socialist schools) in Police State USA. Find out why, if the truth were taught about the Pledge of Allegiance, then everyone (other than fascist kooks) would refuse to perform Francis Bellamy's quotidian mechanical ritual. Remove the pledge from the flag; remove the flag from schools; remove schools from government. The Pointer Institute proudly presents another news-breaking volume from the Dead Writers Club (DWC) and Ian Tinny and the new academic fields of Anarchaeology and Misanthropology. A portion of the proceeds of the sale of this book will aid the "Stop the Pledge Foundation" to liberate children and adults from the Pledge of Allegiance in the USA.
