If you like Lost in Space, then you'll love Mark of Eternity. A constant drone emanated from deep within the ship, audible even over the sharp tangs of their footsteps. Eve could feel it in her bones, a subtle yet ever-present vibration that hinted that the Eternity was still very much alive. Eve has never seen the light of day, nor known the beauty of a living world. Marooned on the dark side of an unforgiving planet, Eve and her parents, Eli and Nisma, scavenge the remains of their colony ship, the Eternity, with the hope of building their own means of escaping their post-apocalyptic prison. But with time running out and constant setbacks and delays pushing everyone beyond their limits, Eve and her family soon find themselves at each other's throats. Will they manage to pull together and flee their living hell? Or would they be doomed to a life of decay in an eternal night? Still need convincing?Mark of Eternity is a 257 page coming of age science fiction novella with a sprinkling of fantasy and an overhanging grimdark atmosphere to tie it all together. Featuring beautiful illustrations by Doan Trang that keep you immersed in the story and a small cast of living characters that all get their time to shine, Mark of Eternity is one story that you'll pick up and won't put down until you turn the very last page.

Beginning with the piece that made Mark Twain famous--"The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County"--and ending with his fanciful "How I Edited an Agricultural Paper," this treasure trove of an anthology, an abridgment of the 1888 original, collects twenty of Twain's own pieces, in addition to tall tales, fables, and satires by forty-three of Twain's contemporaries, including Washington Irving, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Ambrose Bierce, William Dean Howells, Joel Chandler Harris, Artemus Ward, and Bret Harte. "Old pieces of humor are like antique toys: Some of them still work and some don't, but they all have a certain fascination. Especially if we know that they worked for Mark Twain. And when you find one that does still work after, say, a century and a half, if you are like me you say things like 'Look at that workmanship' to cover your wonderment at sharing inner-child glee with someone who was in the grave when your grandmother was born. To my surprise, I feel that way about a good many pieces in this book." --from the Introduction by Roy Blount, Jr."Mark Twain is the Lincoln of our literature."--William Dean Howells
In this compilation of older and newer poems, Strand demonstrates his mastery of cadence and narrative style.
