It's Vegas, baby! Anything can happen. Reed has a (small) chance to win fame and fortune, thanks to his "entourage," Beth. Sick of feeling like a loser, Harper's betting she can win back her life, starting with Miranda -- whose birthday wish just might come true.... Adam's also getting lucky, with a certain ex-girlfriend. Kane, as usual, is playing hard -- and not very nice. Win or lose, it's going to be wild.

Pride

By: Robin Wasserman

Everyone's got something to brag about: Kaia's getting it on with bachelor #1, though scruffball Reed's gotten to be quite an interesting distraction. Kane and Harper got exactly what they planned: Namely, Beth and Adam. (Though to keep gettin' it, their secrets -- and pasts -- best stay forgotten.) Miranda got her heart broken, but now she's all decked with a new look and strategy. Sometimes, though, you only think you've got everything....

The Faith Journey Series

Not Forbidden

By: Robin D. Holstein

Four lonely children, three broken homes, and two willing people all collide for one divine purpose. In this fourth installment of the Faith Journey series, all the past hardships written about in the first, second, and third books begin to take on a new perspective as it suddenly becomes very evident that those horrific events from Robin's and Tim's past--the uncertainty that came from their various life-threatening health challenges, the excruciating pain felt from betrayal and rejection throughout each of their divorces, the loneliness that followed, and all the overt demonic spiritual attacks--were all divinely permitted for a very important purpose that would prove useful in bringing up their four adopted children. Everything comes full circle as Robin realizes that the deep, dark adversity allowed in her past was part of the divine plan to prepare her for the most important task God was calling her and Tim to do. All the rejection, abandonment, anger, and fear they had experienced proved to be useful tools as she and Tim attempt to empathize and understand the heavy weight of deep-rooted hurt and trauma that their children lived with. God uses their past failures and pain to shed light on ways to help them form meaningful bonds with their adopted children; the sibling group consisting of four lost souls that would result in a loving family unit for this new family created by God out of six rejects. "We're all just a bunch of rejects living under one roof. It's no wonder that God can lift us to such heights, we all came from the pit." (Robin D. Holstein)

Sloth

By: Robin Wasserman

One of the seven is dead, and everyone's reeling: Adam's done. With love, with school...with everything. Done. Beth's doing her best to act "normal," but even Reed recognizes devastation, since all he does is fantasize about Kaia. Miranda's lost too. Did she ever really forgive Harper? Only Kane is actually doing something: uncovering how the crash happened -- and why. But there's no do-over with death. There's only moving on -- to the most unlikely places....

Cherry Blossom Epiphany -- The Poetry and Philosophy of a Flowering Tree

Cherry Blossom Epiphany -- The Poetry and Philosophy of a Flowering Tree

By: Robin D. Gill

Cherry Blossom Epiphany - the poetry and philosophy of a flowering tree - a selection, translation and lengthy explication of 3000 haiku, waka, senryû and kyôka about a major theme from I.P.O.O.H. (In Praise Of Olde Haiku)by robin d. gill 1. Haiku -Translation from Japanese to English 2. Japanese poetry - 8c-20c - waka, haiku and senryû 3. Natural History - flowering cherries 4. Japan - Culture - Edo Era 5. Nonfiction - Literature 6. Translation - applied 7. You tell me! If the solemn yet happy New Year's is the most important celebration of Japanese (Yamato) ethnic culture, and the quiet aesthetic practice of Moon-viewing in the fall the most elegant expression of Pan-Asian Buddhism=religion, the subject of this book, Blossom-viewing - which generally means sitting down together in vast crowds to drink, dance, sing and otherwise enjoy the flowering cherry in full-bloom - is less a rite than a riot (a word originally meaning an 'uproar'). The major carnival of the year, it is unusual for being held on a date that is not determined by astronomy, astrology or the accidents of history as most such events are in literate cultures. It takes place whenever the cherry trees are good and ready. Enjoyed in the flesh, the blossom-viewing, or hanami, is also of the mind, so much so, in fact, that poetry is often credited with the spread of the practice over the centuries from the Imperial courts to the maids of Edo. Nobles enjoyed link-verse contests presided over by famous poet-judges. Hermits hung poems feting this flower of flowers (to say the generic "flower" = hana in Japanese connotes "cherry!") on strips of paper from the branches of lone trees where only the wind would read them. In the Occident, too, flowers embody beauty and serve as reminders of mortality, but there is no flower that, like the cherry blossom, stands for all flowers. Even the rose, by any name, cannot compare with the sakura in depth and breadth of poetic trope or viewing practice. In Cherry Blossom Epiphany, Robin D. Gill hopes to help readers experience, metaphysically, some of this alternative world. Haiku is a hyper-short (17-syllabet or 7-beat) Japanese poem directly or indirectly touching upon seasonal phenomena, natural or cultural. Literally millions of these ku have been written, some, perhaps, many times, about the flowering cherry (sakura), and the human activity associated with it, blossom-viewing (hanami). As the most popular theme in traditional haiku (haikai), cherry-blossom ku tend to be overlooked by modern critics more interested in creativity expressed with fresh subjects; but this embarrassment of riches has much to offer the poet who is pushed to come up with something, anything, different from the rest and allows the editor to select from what is, for all practical purposes, an infinite number of ku. Literary critics, take note: Like Rise, Ye Sea Slugs! (2003) and Fly-ku! (2004), this book not only explores new ways to anthologize poetry but demonstrates the practice of multiple readings (an average of two per ku) as part of a composite translation turned into an object of art by innovative clustering. Book-collectors might further note that while Cherry Blossom Epiphany may not be hardback, it takes advantage of the many symbols included with Japanese font to introduce design ornamentation (the circle within the circle, the reverse (Buddhist) swastika, etc.) hitherto not found in English language print. It is a one-of-a-kind work of design by the author.

Rone Isa

By: Robin Murarka

WHAT SECRETS RESIDE IN ENOYA'S ARTIFICIAL MIND? From the acclaimed author of AKIN, Robin Murarka's Rone Isa traverses that border between science and literary fiction, weaving a futuristic dystopian world seeped in technology and wonder. "Leaves behind a properly haunting set of afterimages ... gracefully and poetically rendered." - Kirkus Reviews "Robin Murarka has delivered a tour-de-force in the provocative, daring Rone Isa." - San Francisco Book Review Garbled noise, quickly becoming coherent, strange messages, and soon, she is revealed, calling herself 'Enoya'. The engineer, Dargaud, locked in his small, decrepit loft, marvels over his creation, unaware that she is observing him as much as he is observing her. Set in the futuristic metropolis of Agnus Sistra IV, Rone Isa follows the newly birthed artificial intelligence, 'Enoya', as she learns about the world of man, trying to comprehend abstraction and violence, much as a child would. Dargaud, the engineer that created her, also explores the newfound equity in her abilities, and basks in the carnality afforded to him through her achievements. Reminiscent of 2001: A Space Odyssey and Blade Runner (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?), Rone Isa delves into the depths of artificial intelligence and its relationship with humans. What secrets reside in her artificial mind? And will Dargaud's excess destroy him?

The Oxford History of the Archaic Greek World

Volume IV: Cyrene to Metapontion

The ancient Greek world consisted of approximately 1,000 autonomous polities scattered across the Mediterranean basin, and each one developed its own, unique set of socio-political institutions and social practices. The Oxford History of the Archaic Greek World offers twenty-one detailed studies of key sites from across the Greek world between c. 750 and c. 480 BCE--a crucial period when much of what is now seen as distinctive about Greek culture emerged. All the studies in this seven-volume series use the same structure and methodology so that readers can easily compare a wide range of Greek communities. The series thus offers a new and unique resource for the study of ancient Greece that will transform how we study and think about a crucial era in ancient Greek history. Volume IV contains detailed and up-to-date studies of Cyrene, Delphi, Macedonia, Massalia, and Metapontion.
