Mark IV: Crime, brutality, corruption . . . . When all conventional means of confronting such evils fail, there's a secret organization: Ragnarök

In our world of increasing complexity and the resultant human and physical constraints--overpopulation, global warming, rampant stupidity, unchecked evil, corruption, scientific advances used for ill--what is to be done? Are even the best governments incapable of maintaining order? Is the future of humankind at stake? How many of us have wondered what we would do if we had some kind of world dictatorial power or other absolute influence? Many would find that conjecture to be overwhelming. Yet what if we limited our scope to, say, evil and corruption? The next barrier to fighting such iniquity would be the realization that too often world governments are inept when it comes to such endeavors. Inadequate due to legal, religious, intellectual, political and traditional moral strictures. In view of that, what then if a choice had to be made between the world falling into chaos, and one in which there is secular salvation, but only through efforts that lie outside the normal bounds of the best of civilizations? There are immeasurable individuals and groups outside the laws who are vile and malevolent; why not a last-resort counterpart--unfettered by normal laws; practical and down-to-earth--dedicated to good, but who find it necessary to resort to harsh measures? Those who realize that we have come to a point in history where we must fight fire with fire. Enter Ragnar k, a secret organization that inflicts punishments in the forms of Mark I, II, III, IV, or worse, Mark V (death).

Thera is a three-thousand-year-old Water Nymph who is fated for the Cabinet of Idols. After she was marked by the Staff of Zeus, she teams up with some misfit myths, an immortal and a couple of humans and ventures out into the world to try and stop the inevitable. However, along the way, the group discovers who is behind the Cabinet of Idols and the plot to gather strong legends to unlock a prison which will unleash something that would topple the world. Even though Thera's fate is sealed, it doesn't mean she can prepare the others to fight in her stead when the time comes.
With touches of humor and in varied forms, the poems in Mark My Words range from love, family, loss, fear, to old age and the antics of Atilla the Hun. They express the moods, problems and emotions we all experience.

Mark Taylor seemingly has the perfect life with his wealth, fame, good looks, and an adoring fanbase. However, his arrival in Miami to shoot a major film quickly spirals into a series of tabloid nightmares.Caught in a whirlwind of excessive parties, explosive scandals, and public meltdowns, Mark's life starts to unravel, revealing a secret too large and destructive to conceal. Soon enough, he finds himself in rehab, trading champagne toasts for soul-searching and red carpet events for therapeutic group sessions. Welcome to rock bottom, albeit with a twist of luxury.Drawing from behind-the-scenes research at the famed Betty Ford Center (conducted with a nod to humor and permission), Mark Taylor's Checkered Past offers a witty, satirical glimpse into the pitfalls of addiction, celebrity ego, and the ludicrous side of Hollywood. Filled with belly laughs, rock 'n' roll nods, and stark realities, this novel reminds us that moving forward is impossible if you're constantly looking back.As the stand-alone sequel in the Megan Pagano saga (the beloved Lottery Heiress), this book delivers all the dysfunctional allure of fame, laced with a robust shot of reality, recovery, and ultimately, redemption.Funny, provocative, and surprisingly uplifting, Mark Taylor's Checkered Past is the kind of rehab tale you'll actually want to dive into.2015 President's Award Winner for Humor - Florida Authors and Publishers Association

Only his dream-filled nights of fairies, leprechauns, and magical knights give his life any joy, until the day the strange and incredible Professor Thaddeus Myrrdin Slimmerik appears. The Professor and his magical pocket watch turn the orphanage upside-down as he whisks Caleb away to the land the boy once believed existed only in his dreams. Caleb discovers his past and future uniquely entwined with Professor Slimmerik's, while he also learns the truth about his father and the curious birthmark they share. Will Caleb fulfill his destiny or is the mark of the dragonfly a curse that will destroy him?
Mark of the Beast Is a term that comes from Revelation 13:15-18, in which a leader, prophesied in Daniel 8:23 and 11:21, rises to power and marshals the world (including those who should really know better) toward the worship of the final Gentile world power - in its purest form of idolatry. This book is the author's explication of the intersection of the Law of Moses, Christian philosophy, and end-time prophecy. It also proposes an approach to understanding: the origins of the obvious misogyny witnessed today; and of the "great deception" spreading like wildfire in this 6th and final Gentile power; and the underlying meaning of the symbol 666, the "mark of the beast", at the end.
Mark Akenside (9 November 1721 - 23 June 1770) was an English poet and physician. He was sent in 1739 to the University of Edinburgh to study theology with a view to becoming a minister, his expenses being paid from a special fund set aside by the dissenting community for the education of their pastors. He had already contributed The Virtuoso, in imitation of Spenser's style and stanza (1737) to the Gentleman's Magazine, and in 1738 A British Philippic, occasioned by the Insults of the Spaniards, and the present Preparations for War (also published separately). After one winter as a theology student, Akenside changed to medicine as his field of study. He repaid the money that had been advanced for his theological studies, and became a deist.
Mark Twain, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, and the Head Readers

Having a phrenological 'head reading' was one of the most significant fads of the nineteenth century – a means for better knowing oneself and a guide for self-improvement. Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) had a lifelong yet long overlooked interest in phrenology, the pseudoscience claiming to correlate skull features with specialized brain areas and higher mental traits. Twain's books are laced with phrenological terms and concepts, and he lampooned the head readers in Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. He was influenced by Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, who also used his humor to assail head readers and educate the public. Finger shows that both humorists accepted certain features of phrenology, but not their skull-based ideas. By examining a fascinating topic at the intersection of literature and the history of neuroscience, this engaging study will appeal to readers interested in phrenology, science, medicine, American history, and the lives and works of Twain and Holmes.
