Dear Mr. Stuart, For twenty years, I believe I am right in saying, you, as Assistant Secretary for Native Affairs in Natal, and in other offices, have been intimately acquainted with the Zulu people. Moreover, you are one of the few living men who have made a deep and scientific study of their language, their customs and their history. So I confess that I was the more pleased after you were so good as to read this tale-the second book of the epic of the vengeance of Zikali, "the Thing-that-should-never-have-been-born," and of the fall of the House of Senzangakona 1] -when you wrote to me that it was animated by the true Zulu spirit.

Now I, Allan Quatermain, come to the story of what was, perhaps, one of the strangest of all the adventures which have befallen me in the course of a life that so far can scarcely be called tame or humdrum. Amongst many other things it tells of the war against the Black Kendah people and the dead of Jana, their elephant god. Often since then I have wondered if this creature was or was not anything more than a mere gigantic beast of the forest. It seems improbable, even impossible, but the reader of future days may judge of this matter for himself. Also he can form his opinion as to the religion of the White Kendah and their pretensions to a certain degree of magical skill. Of this magic I will make only one remark: If it existed at all, it was by no means infallible. To take a single instance, Har t and Mar t were convinced by divination that I, and I only, could kill Jana, which was why they invited me to Kendahland. Yet in the end it was Hans who killed him.

2021 Readers' Favorite International Book Awards Gold Medal for Supernatural Fiction! Another stormy night, another body found in another dark NYC alley! When a third woman dies in Manhattan, FBI Agent Gavin Gregory of the Behavioral Analysis Unit takes notice. The signature of the crimes matches a series of brutal murders he investigated ten years ago, and he fears the killer has returned. A psychiatrist from a New York mental hospital claims to know the identity of the murderer. When Gregory hears her unbelievable tale--a dark mind trip of demonic possession--he almost walks away, but she knows too many details only the perpetrator would know. Gregory wonders if she is insane or if she is the killer. When Agent Gregory’s wife is kidnapped, he must embrace the supernatural or risk losing her forever. Part thriller, part supernatural horror, Wrath Child keeps you guessing and turning pages long into the night. Perfect for fans of Dean Koontz, Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, Jeremy Bates, Anthony M. Strong, Lee Mountford, Michaelbrent Collings, and Abe Moss. Reviews of Wrath Child "Vick is a seasoned writer who doesn’t hold back. His opening line ('The alley stank of garbage and human waste and blood and imminent death') demonstrates his ability to evoke the senses and paint a visceral scene -- and alerts readers that the story to come contains a fair amount of gore and disturbing images. The well-crafted plot, memorable characters, and decidedly wicked villain will linger long after the last page is turned. Those looking for an engrossing supernatural thriller containing high stakes will find much to enjoy. Great for fans of John Connolly's A Book of Bones and Vaughn C. Hardacker's Wendigo."--Publishers Weekly "Wrath Child is one of the best supernatural thrillers I've read in recent years, and I would highly recommend it to fans of the genre."--Pikasho Deka, Readers' Favorite Reviews "Wrath Child: A Supernatural Thriller is psychologically rich, written with interesting details and scenes that put readers on the edge of their seats. It is an enjoyable read with great writing."--Grace Masso, Readers' Favorite Reviews "This is the best thing [Erik Henry Vick has] ever written!"--Supergirl (Erik's wife--how could she be biased??) "Addictive, disturbing, scary and absorbing story. Already ordered the sequel. Can't lose with this book."--Amazon Reader "If you want to be scared page after page, then this book is for you!!!!"--Amazon Reader "It was impossible to put down. A little bit of the mystery gets revealed at a time creating perfect suspense. Terrifying and unforgettable plot."--Amazon Reader "…a phenomenal hit! This is what horror and suspense is all about. Filled with twists and turns, murders, psychosis, adventure and suspense, this novel will keep you up reading all night under the covers."--Amazon Reader "I loved this book. There was an inventive streak I was not expecting."--Amazon Reader "[Erik Henry Vick] punches well above his weight, comparing favorably with Grisham, Patterson, Koontz and sai King (who remains The King, but still) and other storytelling masters."--Amazon Reader

This study builds upon the belief that a human being is a manifold between being who acts, feels, and thinks. No one account about human development, whether behavioral, psychodynamic, or cognitive, can fully explain human development. This book is written with the conviction that study, research, and actual work with children or youth should build upon that which is already known.
