Egypt, 8000 years ago. The gods walk among men as titans, powerful beings with passions that move mountains, fix stars in the heavens, and master the forces of life and death. Within this world, the evil god Set betrays and murders his brother Osiris, king of rich and respected Abydos. Set steals all that Osiris had, including the queen, Isis, the goddess of life and beauty. Isis escapes her monstrous conqueror and and bends her powers toward finding her love and bringing him back from death. But, like all gods, Isis is trapped despite her power, for she can never go beyond the limits of her nature. For that, she needs the assistance of man. In the course of this quest, kingdoms fall, armies clash, and the balance of power between gods and men is altered forever. Who holds power in such cataclysmic conflict? Is it those who define power, or those who define themselves?
When Sally Reiser joined the mysterious network, she did so to protect her handicapped child. But the network that kept them safe has been infiltrated and has taken up a sinister new purpose, to murder Sally, the seer of God, and also her eight-year-old autistic son. How far and fast will this mother run to escape a fate fueled by fanaticism and decreed a thousand years before she was born? In this sequel to Last Days and Times, Stephan Michael Loy paints an intense picture of power gone mad. A fantasy thriller traversing the world from Lake Michigan to the deserts of Israel, Redemption Song is a fast-paced, gripping tale of soldiers and terrorists, philosophers and sociopaths, of angels and monsters. Sally Reiser is blessed -- or cursed -- to see the works of God, no matter how beautiful or terrible. But can she see her way from darkness to light and bring with her the people she loves?

Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, 22 Mann die rennen, einem Balle hinterher, nachher tun dann Elwe flennen, den Lachs f ngt nur der Grizzlyb r. Dieser Gedicht und Liederband ist f r kleine und gro e Menschen konzipiert und enth lt u.a. viele lustige Tiergedichte. Am Ende des Buches finden sich einige Songtexte. Der Grund hierf r ist mein eigenes Interesse an Tieren und Musik jedweder Art. Tauchen Sie ein in die Welt des Neuen, teils absurden Humors. Lassen Sie sich einfach treiben, nehmen Sie meine Texte zur Hand und leben Sie den heutigen Tag. Denn Morgen k nnen schon die Kometen kommen, wer wei das schon? hnlichkeiten mit Busch und Ringelnatz sind nicht von der Hand zu weisen, waren aber nicht gewollt. Ich darf Ihnen viel Vergn gen beim Schm kern w nschen. Ihr Autor Stephan Koehl

When Don Luis is taken from his farm at gunpoint, a wife, brother, sister-in-law and daughter must set aside their personal differences and fight for his return. Relationships are challenged, faith is questioned, and redemption is found in the most unlikely of places. Set in present-day Mexico and based on true events, the novel brings to light the now pandemic crime of kidnap for ransom once reserved for murderous mafias or drug running cartels. Blunt, edgy and disturbingly real, The Stones in the Field is a character-driven race of emotion told through the eyes of a family divided; the faithful wife Camila; the guilt-stricken brother Armando; Rosa, the vain sister; and Yolanda, the sweet and innocent daughter on the eve of her quince aNos. Juxtaposed with the family's battle for a peaceful resolution, is the cursed life of Gustavo Navarro, a trained assassin, battling demons of his own while forced to watch over the kidnapped Luis. When a ransom amount is agreed upon and an exchange of money for man arranged, the Castillos set off to retrieve their stolen patriarch. But in a world where money and violence reign, there is little room for happy endings.

In the spring of 1889, Americans are enjoying the spoils of an industrial revolution, but in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, the wheels of industry are brought to a grinding halt when the South Fork dam bursts.Bennett Marsh, a nineteen-year-old kitchen-hand, wants nothing more than to leave South Fork and attend the Julliard School of Music in New York. Bennett's father, Percival, a steel-mill worker lured by the glamour of high society, is trapped in a dead-end job, and struggles to find his place as parent and provider.John Parke, the resident engineer at the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, questions the integrity of the dam while his gadabout wife and upper-crust club members wine and dine around him in ignorant bliss. When a storm inundates the valley with torrential rain, Parke's greatest fear comes true. Twenty million tons of water spill into the Allegheny Valley, devastating the lives of the 30,000 people living below it.When the dam breaks, and Bennett and Percival must count on each other to survive, they are given a chance to discover the bond between them, but it may have come too late."In Wade in the Water, Michael Oates creatively transforms the events and characters of the Johnstown flood into a wildly inventive and unpredictable tale."-- Richard Burkert, President and CEO of the Johnstown Area Heritage Association"Michael Oates has written an absorbing work of historical fiction. Using thinly disguised historical figures (e.g. Andrew Carnegie, Henry Frick), he tells the story of the largely forgotten Johnstown flood of 1889. By creating well-developed characters enmeshed an involving tale, the Oates is able to convey the horror of being helplessly caught up in this unnatural disaster. The book is well researched and skillfully blends fact and fiction in a manner that reminds one of Doctorow's] Ragtime. If one were teaching a course of history through fiction, this would be a strong addition to the syllabus."-- Vince Buck, professor emeritus, California State University"Michael Oates revisits a tragic moment in American history with his novel Wade In The Water, a touching coming of age tale plunging the reader into the swirling waters of a devastating flood that destroyed the town of Johnstown, Pennsylvania in 1889 and took the lives over 2,000 men, women, and children. Perhaps overshadowed by more recent disasters such as 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, the Johnstown flood has been forgotten by many. Oates brings its memory back with a gripping story that hooks you from the very start and flows on with identifiable characters and expressive narration, almost lyrical at times, exploring the choices people make as they survive or succumb to tragedy."-- Debra Holland, New York Times bestselling author of The Montana Sky Series"The 'Johnstown Flood' of 1889 survives as a dimly recalled phrase, but memory of the actual scope of the catastrophe has faded with time. In 'Wade in the Water', Michael Oates brings the drama and tragedy of the flood back with immediate, wrenching impact. Told through the eyes of memorable characters whose personal struggles are instantly erased by the immensity of the disaster, Oates conveys the terror of that horrible moment with meticulous historical accuracy. 'Wade in the Water' is the story of people - including real characters like Clara Barton of the Red Cross - caught in a nightmare of destruction comparable to the annihilation of Pompeii, with loss of life exceeding any American disaster up to that time. Oates tells a stirring story that highlights the fragility of life and the endurance of the human spirit."-- John M. Adams Historian, Author of The Millionaire and the Mummies
