At last -- the untold chapter in the history of Star Trek's most notorious villain, KHAN. Searing and powerful, To Reign in Hell masterfully bridges the time period between Khan Noonien Singh's twenty-third-century revival in the Original Series classic episode "Space Seed" and his unforgettable return in the acclaimed feature film Star Trek II:The Wrath of Khan.What truly transpired during Khan's long years of exile on the forbidding world of Ceti Alpha V, before the tyrant escaped to embark on a murderous campaign of vengeance against Admiral James T. Kirk? What horrific trials spawned Khan's insane lust for revenge? Haunted by the memory of Khan's bitter accusations, Kirk now revisits Ceti Alpha V to discover for himself what ultimately drove Khan to madness. There, buried beneath the desolate surface of a dying planet, Kirk and his allies find the untold story of their greatest foe -- and of the woman who loved him: Lieutenant Marla McIvers of Starfleet. Along with Khan's genetically engineered followers from the twentieth century, Khan and Marla are left on Ceti Alpha V with the hopes of building a new life together. Although the planet is savage and untamed, full of deadly predators and unexpected hazards, Khan dreams of carving out an empire even greater than the one he once ruled on Earth. But when catastrophe strikes, laying waste to the entire world, Khan and the others find themselves trapped in a desperate struggle for survival. Now Khan must use every ounce of his superhuman strength and intellect to wage a fearsome battle against the planet, his people...and the growing darkness in his own soul.

A steampunk princess is torn between love and duty in this prequel to SyFy.com’s wildly popular webisodes.Riese has never been happy as a princess; she’d much rather be hunting or fighting than sitting through another lesson on court etiquette.

But with war decimating her once-proud nation and the sinister clockwork Sect infiltrating her mother’s court, Riese’s moments with Micah are the only islands of sanity left in a world gone mad. As her kingdom falls and the Sect grows ever stronger, will Riese remain true to her duty as a princess…or risk everything on a boy she barely knows?

'Your Perfect Horse Starts with You' is about recognizing the impact we have on our horse's behavior. Encouraging those who are on the 'right track' to tweak and improve and encouraging those too soft, too hard or confusing their horses to change if needed. Greg explains the 'Why's, What's and How's' of each technique he continues to use each day with his horses and personal clients to create relaxed, thinking horses.Embracing each horse's personality and abilities by teaching their owners to train with patience, confidence, and consistency. This is what creates a mutually respectful bond between you and your horse!PrefaceThis book was written for horse lovers. Those who love their horse so much, they want to form a willing partnership. Where you, as the leader, have your horse’s best interest at heart, and the tools to keep your horse and yourself, safe, relaxed and having fun. That is why we have them after all.This book was also written by a horseman. I’m not a writer, I’m not even much of a reader, but my wife has locked me indoors for brief periods, poked and prodded and asked ‘why’ way too often in order for us to write a book, an easy read, one where the author is having a chat with you...a very one-sided chat but a chat all the same.Ultimately, I can’t help everyone in person, even though I would like to. I love seeing the rebalancing of relationships between horses and their owners. This book is a way for me to share the Natural Horsemanship methods I learned as a young man, and as a not so young man, from some of the best Horsemen and Horsewomen in the world. All of the videos you see in the QR Codes are recorded at real Horsemanship Clinics or at our property in Townsville with real people and real horses. Some horses have issues, some don’t.I guess what I’m saying is, the grammar might not be perfect, but anyone who knows me will hear me talking, keeping it simple in my usual style…enjoy!Greg began riding at the age of 3 years when his father first allowed him and his pony “Shirley” to join him on mustering trips.At age 13 he was introduced to legendary US horseman Lee Reborse, there he truly became inspired to further his knowledge in Natural Horsemanship.Greg began spending a great deal of time with North Queensland horse trainer, Bill Basset.Working alongside Bill furthered Greg’s passion for horses becoming more skilled in his general horsemanship. By age 15 Greg was breaking youngsters and assisting his father in the training of cutting horses.Throughout his career spanning four decades, Greg has spent time with the World No 1 Colt Starter, Chris Cox (a childhood mate) and has taken other trainers methods to create his own formula. He’s learnt to think like a horse, using equine natural instincts to his keep the horse relaxed while learning, reinforcing and rewarding a horse when he ‘gets it right’.Greg Cook learned Natural Horsemanship from the founders, back when it was classed as ‘new’. Teaching Clients has taught him how to share it!Greg has spent time with some of the best, including Chris Cox, Lee Reborse, and not least of all, his Dad.Now his favourite trainers, are the horses themselves.
