As singular as Corporal York’s heroism and resourcefulness on the battlefield were, they were all the more remarkable in light of his former opposition to war on religious grounds. His was the unshakable conviction and resolve of a convert, having traded, on his knees, a wild, remorseless life for one of sincere Christian piety in the peaceful stillness of a New Year’s dawn nearly four years before. And yet, he was persuaded that spiritual victories must sometimes be gained through wars of the flesh.

Ex-cop Henry Shore has been Chief Park Ranger at Crater Lake National Park for eight years and he likes his park and his life the way it's been. Safe. Tranquil. Predictable. But he's about to be tested in so many ways. First the earthquakes begin, people begin to go missing, then there's some mysterious water creature that's taken up residence in the caves below Crater Lake and it's not only growing in size, it's aggressive and cunning and very hungry.

Near the end of World War II, in an attempt to attack the United States mainland, Japan launched its fu-go campaign, deploying thousands of high-altitude hydrogen balloons armed with incendiary and high-explosive bombs designed to follow the westerly winds of the upper atmosphere and drift to the west coast of North America. After reaching the mainland, these fu-go, the Japanese hoped, would terrorize American citizens and ignite devastating forest fires across the western states, ultimately causing the United States to divert wartime resources to deal with the domestic crisis.

Chief Park Ranger Henry Shore has dealt with and fought real live dinosaurs at his beloved Crater Lake National Park for over six years. With the help of his rangers, a few brave FBI friends, and army soldiers, he'd been victorious over a prehistoric lake creature and years later some particularly fiendish, and clever, specimens of the flying variety. He and his newspaper publisher wife, Ann, thought their park was finally rid of the monsters and they could reclaim their tranquil life in a place they cherished. Not so.

Lucid dreaming sounds like something out of the occultic spiritual text, or even something out of a futuristic novel about the capabilities of our species. But it is something very real! Even old mainstream religious texts and modern science cannot deny its existence. It is a way to explore ourselves, and some speculate the entire universe. Many arguments exist on the capabilities of the dream world, but no one can argue that it doesn't exist. In this book, we will explore lucid dreaming and, most importantly, how to do it.

Lucas Sawyer and his wife, Tamsen, find themselves marooned in the heart of a mid-19th century wilderness forest. They are rescued by Jonah Duvall, a mysterious woodsman abiding in this strange valley with his wife, Jezebel, and thier son, Cord. Brooding over all stands the Devil Tree - a huge evil jackpine that has summoned them to this valley to feed upon their collective emotions and their unnatural offspring. Part earth spirit, part elder demon - the tree is farming them.

The Spaceships of Ezekiel is about a ship that was supposedly observed by the prophet Ezekiel. It was written while the author, Josef Blumrich, was chief of NASA's systems layout at the Marshall Space Flight Center. After ufologists such as Erich von Däniken pointed to the possibility of interpreting Ezekiel's vision as a report of an extraterrestrial spacecraft, Blumrich decided to disprove the hypothesis. However, a thorough examination convinced him that Ezekiel had, in fact, seen a spaceship.

In this sixth installment of the Anthology Askew series, we asked our authors to imagine Askew Horizons - and to stretch the boundaries of what has been referred to as Science Fiction. They answered us in some amazing ways, and reached beyond the standard fare of mere space exploration and alien encounters, to bring you stories of wonder. You will encounter man's interactions with lifeforms beyond his comprehension, monsters both microscopic and gigantic, and a few stories that are reminiscent of episodes of Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone. 

How does Jesus Christ fit in a UFO universe? The answer may surprise you. The answer may change you. After following the History Channel's Ancient Alien program, I began researching the Bible and other ancient texts used by ancient astronaut theorists. Initially, I set out to prove that Jesus fit into their premise - that humans are descendants of an alien race - but that's not what I found. What I discovered blew my mind.

The Book of Enoch does not change the Bible or challenge it. It supports it completely, with other facts in between as far as how the weather works, etc. that is told in the Bible. I heard one person say awhile back, "okay; Enoch was mentioned in the Bible, but his writings aren't." Well, I challenge to say this why would a righteous man such as Jude, an apostle mention Enoch in any way. Or in an approving way if Enoch is a false prophet, and if his wisdom and experiences are a doctrine of demons?

Flight of the Forgotten is the true story of one of the most closely-guarded American military secrets of all time. It is intriguing, controversial, and thought-provoking. The story traverses 50 years, two generations, and the realities of our physical world. The triggering event is the tragic loss of an American Eighth Air Force bomber crew in 1945 under mysterious circumstances while enroute home after the end of World War II. The loss represents a 50-year-old aviation mystery, officially "forgotten" by the United States Government.

The humans' dinosaur killing serum and extermination practices had worked far better than anyone had prayed. The Earth belonged to the humans once more, and all its lands were safe - or so the world, Henry Shore, former Chief Park Ranger at Crater Lake National Park, and his wife, Ann, had believed...until one day, years later, two new dinosaurs, craftier than any the Earth had ever seen, appeared. One of them was benevolent, a friend to mankind, and the other was not. It was blood-thirsty, eerily intelligent, and unbelievably vengeful. This dinosaur wouldn’t be so easy to kill.

This book explains the gospel of the grace of God (God's unmerited favor extended to everyone, everywhere) and is designed to empower individual Christians to stand confidently and securely in the favor of God.

Famous novelist Rhys Carter loved to take long walks through his beech tree forest. It was relaxing, and the walks helped him think through the writer's block that oft times visited him while working on a novel. Today though, was different. This time he had been following the smell and sight of a stream of smoke coming from his woods. What had brought him here today was the need to find the source of the smoke. Where it led him was to something he had never seen before.
