    Thousands of years ago before the events of today the creator of all, Nihani saw that his realm had become full of war, greed and selfishness. A young man knowing that Nihani could not be happy with the way his realm was, began a quest to find him. The young man having traveled the realm in search of Nihani came to the point of death as he ran out of food and supplies. This pleased Nihani as he saw there was still hope in his realm for change. In this instant Nihani appeared to him and gave him a chance to change the realm. Nihani told the man that through my “Will” or my “Rage” the realm could be transform. Through my “Will” it would take some time but eventually judgement would be fair and order restored. Through my “Rage” order would be restored swift and immediate, but through swift actions without proper instruction may build resentment and bring recourse. The man chose the “Rage of Nihani”, he believed that the time for a democratic approach had long pass and he restored immediate order to the realm and then proclaimed himself a God. Now, it is long since those days and the realm is worse than before. A young orphan boy awoke one morning and finds himself at the center of a war that has been going on for centuries unbeknown to him. He finds an ancient book that he is somehow connected to, and memories of an old life comes rushing back to him, only to find that he is the originator of it all.The young orphan boy (Raphael) is the reincarnation of Abel, the son of the man (Odium Omega) thousands of years ago who decided to use the “Rage of Nihani” to bring order to the world. Odium failed those years ago when he became consumed with rage, and became worse than the evil he sort out to perish. Abel was not strong enough to defeat Omega, but with the help of the Overlords from the other realms he was able to banish him. Abel’s plan was to develop a way to become stronger overtime and developed a powerful system of “belief spirit” abilities called “sonnets”. He knew that Omega’s Lord Bishop Tuscan Midas would be plotting for a way to bring him back, and when Hiram began to unravel his plot to bring back Omega, Abel began to unravel his plot of his own return through “the Book of Abel” to take back the power of Nihani, the creator of all.

    Paperback (Narcissus.me, April 29, 2017)
    “Here's a letter for you, Harry,” said George Howard. “I was passing the hotel on my way home from school when Abner Potts called out to me from the piazza, and asked me to bring it.” The speaker was a bright, round-faced boy of ten. The boy whom he addressed was five or six years older. Only a week previous he had lost his father, and as the family consisted only of these two, he was left, so far as near relatives were concerned, alone in the world. Immediately after the funeral he had been invited home by Mr. Benjamin Howard, a friend of his father, but in no manner connected with him by ties of relationship. “You can stay here as long as you like, Harry,” said Mr. Howard, kindly. “It will take you some time to form your plans, perhaps, and George will be glad to have your company.” “Thank you, Mr. Howard,” said Harry, gratefully. “Shall you look for some employment here?” “No; my father has a second cousin in Colebrook, named John Fox. Before he died he advised me to write to Mr. Fox, and go to his house if I should receive an invitation.”

    “Where are you goin’, Julius? Where’s yer blackin’ box? ” asked Patrick Riley.“I’ve retired from business,” said Julius.“Did yer rich uncle die, and leave yer a fortune? ”“No, but he’s goin’ up the river to Sing Sing, for the benefit of his constitushun, and I’m goin’ West fer my health.”“Goin’ West? You’re gassin’.”“No, I ain’t, I’m goin’ in a few days, along of Mr. O’Connor, and a lot of other chaps.”“Is it far out there? ” asked Pat.“More’n a hundred miles,” said Julius, whose ideas of geography and distances were rather vague.“Yer don’t mean ter live out there? ”“Yes, I do, I’m goin’ on to a farm, or into a store, and grow up respectable.”“Won’t yer miss the city, Julius? ”“Likely I will.”“I don’t think I’d like the country,” said Pat, reflectively. “New York’s a bully place. There’s always something goin’ on. I say, did you hear of that murder in Center Street last night? ”“No; what was it? ”“A feller stabbed a cop that was trottin’ him round to the station house for bein’ tight. There’s always something to make it lively here. In the country there ain’t no murders, nor burglaries, nor nothin’,” concluded Pat, rather contemptuously.

    eBook (, Feb. 26, 2019)
    Ragged Dick; or, Street Life in New York with the Boot Blacks is a Bildungsroman by Horatio Alger, Jr. serialized in Student and Schoolmate in 1867, and released as a full length novel in May 1868 by A. K. Loring. It was the first volume in the six volume Ragged Dick Series, and became Alger's all-time bestseller. The tale follows a poor boot black's rise to middle class respectability in 19th-century New York City. It had a favorable reception. Student and Schoolmate reported their readers were delighted with the first installment and Putnam's Magazine thought boys would love the novel. One modern scholar considers the story a "puerile fantasy" about class assimilation. The plot and theme were repeated virtually in toto in Alger's subsequent novels and became the grist for parodists and satirists. Ragged Dick and Alger's Silas Snobden's Office Boy inspired the musical comedy Shine! in 1982.it is very interusting story....
