Sharks - the ultimate predators, masters of their watery domain, a world that is entirely alien and inhospitable to man. So many aspects of the shark are associated with humankind's most primal fears. The tell-tale dorsal fin slicing through the water, the dead eyed-stare, the gaping jaws full to unforgiving teeth, the remorseless drive to kill and feed...Inspired by such classic pulp movies as Jaws and Deep Blue Sea - as well as such ludicrous delights as Sharknado and Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus - the stories contained within are rip-roaring page-turners and slow-build chillers that celebrate all things savage, pulp and selachian. Covering the whole range of speculative fiction genres, from horror and Steampunk, through to SF and WTF, these are stories with bite! Come on in. The water's fine...

Read, Study, Enjoy Your Bible Like Never Before The Bible: the most read, referred to, revered, trusted, and respected book that mankind has ever been exposed to. After all, it IS the Word of God. It even says of itself, All scripture is given by inspiration of God. I've learned in 30 years of shepherding the people of God that there's not much out there to help the common man learn to read and become a serious student of the Bible. It seems obvious to me that if we had some simple, easy to understand, and solid principles of reading the Bible that millions more would be likely to pick it up more often and glean from the profound wisdom (which is only one of hundreds of benefits) that resides in it. Think of the ramifications of that If you're one of the many people who say, "I try to read my Bible, but I don't understand it." Well, don't lose heart, this book is for you The principles contained herein, in bite-size form, if ascribed to, will enable you to read your Bible with new excitement, knowing you're drawing from the most important Book ever written. These principles will guide your life, give you a Biblical worldview, and acquaint you with the indescribable love of the Father
