What happens when faith picks up a sword? From the blood-soaked streets of Jerusalem to the burning of Constantinople, Deus Vult tells the full, unflinching story of the Crusades — the wars that defined medieval Christendom, reshaped the world, and left behind a legacy of violence, myth, and madness. This isn’t your average textbook history. It’s raw, irreverent, and razor-sharp. JJ delivers a fast-paced, brutally clear narrative of how the Crusades actually happened — without the gloss, without the Sunday school edits, and without pretending anyone knew what they were doing.

He had no degree, no license, no product. Yet Jeffrey Epstein ended up with a $77 million mansion, a private island, and a guest list that reads like the boardroom of the world. The Financier isn’t a biography — it’s an autopsy. This is the story of a man who didn’t just game the system… He revealed it. From classrooms he shouldn’t have taught in to courtrooms that let him walk, this book follows the network that built him, protected him, and quietly erased the evidence when things got too loud. This isn’t about one predator.

From the mind of James Johnson comes a chilling psychological thriller that unravels the boundary between listener and text. I Didn’t Write This is not a typical horror story—it’s a slow-burning descent into self-awareness, told one impossible chapter at a time. Each chapter feels more familiar than the last. Until you stop wondering what’s happening… and start wondering when it started. If you’ve ever seen something in the mirror that didn’t feel right, this book is for you.

What if the sales job that was supposed to changed your life ended up breaking your soul? 'The High Road' is a true story, names changed, truths intact. About one spring inside a door-to-door sales cult that promised purpose, power, and paydays... but delivered something far stronger. James Johnson didn't john Astra to make friends. He joined to win. To out work, outhink, and outlast everyone. What he didn't expect was to watch cracks form from the inside. The manipulations, the blind loyalty, the pressure disguised as passion.

In the shadows of World War II, the Allies staged a military illusion so bold, so convincing, that it changed the course of history. This is the story of Operation Fortitude—the fake army, the rubber tanks, the phantom generals, and the elaborate radio chatter that convinced Hitler the D-Day invasion would strike somewhere else. It wasn’t just a trick. It was a masterclass in strategic deception. And it worked.

Before grammar, stories, or history, there was pointing. Grunting. Guesswork. And somehow, from that, we built language. This isn’t a textbook. It’s the story of how humans learned to name the world, how we stitched together meaning from noise, and how the system we invented ended up running us. From cave mouths to cuneiform, slang to syntax, sacred scripts to AI chatbots, this book tells the full arc of the original human software: invented, forgotten, rediscovered, and now automated. This Is a Rock doesn’t teach you how to talk. It shows you how we figured out that we could.

Before mindfulness apps. Before lo-fi beats to study to. Before every self-help book told you to “let go”… There was Alan Watts. This book isn’t a lecture. It’s a vibe. Everything Is Fine, Actually is a chilled-out journey through the life and mind of a man who didn’t care about enlightenment points — just clarity, laughter, and presence. From his British roots to his West Coast evolution, Watts preached the art of not trying, the illusion of the ego, and the sacred joke of existence.

Before Heaven and Hell tells the true story of Zoroastrianism—the world’s first documented monotheism and the forgotten root of many modern beliefs. Long overshadowed by the religions it helped inspire, Zoroastrianism introduced core concepts we now take for granted: Heaven and Hell, final judgment, a cosmic savior, angels, demons, ethical dualism, and free will as a sacred responsibility.

He never stopped drawing. Not even when the world told him to grow up. Tim Burton didn’t try to fit in — he turned his alienation into art. From the suburban shadows of Burbank to the soundstages of Hollywood, he built an empire of monsters, misfits, and melancholy hearts.

He doesn’t breathe. He doesn’t bleed. He doesn’t age. But he can sue you, fire you, poison you, and replace you. THE MAN MADE OF PAPER is the terrifying true story of how a legal illusion became the most powerful “person” on Earth. Born from charters, shielded by law, and fed by profit, this artificial entity now owns your labor, your government, your identity, and your future. From the rise of the East India Company to the algorithmic firms of today, JJ walks step by step through the machine’s construction.

You were told the Bible was perfect. That it came from God. That it never contradicted itself. And that asking too many questions was dangerous. But not everyone agreed. This book follows the lives and arguments of philosophers, scholars, ex-pastors, skeptics, and former believers. People who read the Bible carefully, seriously, and sometimes devotionally... until it broke under its own weight. From Spinoza and Voltaire to Bart Ehrman and Francesca Stavrakopoulou, The Gospel of Doubt walks through the quiet collapse of certainty. Not with anger, but with clarity.

It is in this environment that The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man is written.

He becomes a musician and travels the world as a free Black man for much of his life, but eventually makes the decision to live as a White man after witnessing a horrific lynching. The rest of his life is spent keeping a piece of himself hidden from everyone in an attempt at safety.

Math 101: A History of Numbers isn’t a textbook — it’s a story. A fast, listenable, journey through how we went from counting on our fingers to coding AI. From ancient bone tallies and Sumerian tokens to Renaissance ratios, algebraic revolutions, and modern machine logic, this book tracks the true evolution of math — not as cold formulas, but as a living system we built to make sense of the world.

In Red vs. Blue, JJ cuts straight through the fog of American politics, tracing how we ended up with two massive political identities that nobody fully understands but everyone is expected to defend. This isn’t a policy book. It’s not a campaign book. It’s a book about labels, identity, and the long, messy history behind why the United States split itself in two.

Here is a bracing deconstruction of the framework for understanding the world that is learned as gospel in Economics 101, regardless of its imaginary assumptions and misleading half-truths. Economism: an ideology that distorts the valid principles and tools of introductory college economics...

Chaplain James D. Johnson chose to accompany his men, unarmed, on their daily combat operations, a decision made against the recommendations of his superiors. During what would be the final days for some, he offered his ministry not from a pulpit but on the battlefields - in hot landing zones and rice paddies, in hospitals, aboard ship, and knee-deep in mud. Through his compelling narration, he takes us into the hearts of frightened young boys and the minds of experienced men.

Whether you're a triangle-folder, a crust-first renegade, or a midnight reheater, this book reveals the saucy truth: Pizza isn’t just food. It’s reality itself.

Leviathans stride the poetic stage, known to us all and revered by many. Their verse is at once familiar and yet constantly reveals new layers and depths, new ways of thinking and assembling words to reveal new truths, new feelings and above all new poetry.

Why is one man blamed for everything? George Soros has been called a puppetmaster, a globalist, a threat to democracy, and a hero of it. Sometimes all in the same sentence. From collapsing currencies to funding civil rights and bankrolling prosecutors to appearing in conspiracy threads across the internet, his name now carries more weight than his actions ever did. This book cuts through the noise. SOROS traces how a Holocaust survivor turned hedge fund legend became one of the most feared and mythologized figures on the planet.
