A little something for everybody!""Fans of Aurora Rising and Skyward will fall in love all over again.”Luna Chambers of the Isles of Soh'Jum is desperate to escape her planned betrothment and the responsibilities of adulthood. The night of her seventeenth Candleflame, she notices something odd—a lone strand of hair, white as the moon above, shining amongst her familiar black curls. A sign that the common blood within her veins has become so much more. Something the world of Nebalor hasn't seen in over two Ages…During her travels, she discovers a crash-landed alien named Jevlin Tao, who tells her that his kind—selvians—are responsible for the recent successes of humanity. An “uplifting process” that has led to his betrayal. Another space-faring race, the imperialistic xenoth of the Xen Domain, have found out about the humans and now threaten their annihilation.

  • The Healing Effects of CBD Rich Hemp Oil - Make Your Own CBD Oil at Home: How to Extract, Use, and Heal with Cannabis Medicine

    Jonathan Seaman

    eBook (Valencia Publishing House, Jan. 11, 2017)
    The Healing Effects of CBD Rich Hemp OilMake Your Own CBD Oil at HomeHow to Extract, Use, and Heal with Cannabis MedicineI first learned about the medicinal benefits of marijuana through a Dutch friend who was born and raised in the Netherlands where marijuana has been legal for many years now. It was 1994 when I first got interested in learning more about the healing effects of marijuana, but not much data was available back then, as the internet was just in its infancy at that time. As a self-proclaimed Naturopathic healer, my interest just grew over time. Around the end of 1996, when California legalized marijuana for medical use, I was finally able to get more research data on the topic. For some reason, I always had this belief that marijuana holds a big secret under its leaves most of which we just haven’t discovered yet.At first, Marijuana was only used as a painkiller in the medical field as a last resort for terminal patients that were suffering from AIDS, Cancer, and other such deadly illnesses. But after 2005, that started to change in a big way, researchers and doctors started seeing the true medicinal value of marijuana and the healing effects of its various ingredients like THC, CBD and Hemp oil. It was like opening a floodgate, so much started to pour in and so fast that it was truly overwhelming for most researchers.I too was consumed and overwhelmed with all the information. But I am sure some of you may not know all these details but most of you should remember when Dr. Sanjay Gupta of CNN did a medical breakthrough program of a 5 years old girl in New Jersey that was suffering from an acute case of Epilepsy where she was having 6-10 seizures a day and on modern medicine could stop that. Long story short, when the parents found out about the new marijuana-derived medical research, they took their daughter and started the new treatment immediately. Only after a few dosages, she began to recover, and from 10 seizures a day she is now down to one or two minor ones maybe once a month! Just imagine the power of Marijuana.My goal in this book is to share some proven facts about marijuana, and by facts, I mean the healing power and actual medicinal value of this plant, nothing more. I share what and how you can find healing through Cannabis-derived CBD oil. Now that Cannabis is being legal is many states, it is much easier to find these medicines without going outside the country. Lastly, before I get started, next time you vote, if you see an option for legalizing marijuana or medical or otherwise, please vote Yes and let’s bring healing to everyone in every state, country and eventually in this great world of ours.In This Book I Show You:How Marijuana works in our bodyHow CBD Works in our body16 deadly diseases Cannabis can HealHow to Extract CBD oil from a Marijuana plantWhat are the 10 Most Popular CBD TherapyWhat is the proper Dosage for CBD OilExact dosage guideline for various illness and disorderWhat and how to buy the right type CBD10 things to look for when choosing cannabis medicine3 Ways to identify bad or fake CBD productsThe law regarding CBD and other Cannabis productsTrue Testimonial of patients and usersWhat the Doctors say about CBD OilIf this book can help heal even one person, I would consider my work a success.

  • Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist

    Jonathan Shaw

    eBook (Turner, March 21, 2017)
    Jonathan Shaw’s Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist is a surreal, multi-generational roller coaster ride through the underbelly of modern culture, charting the course of a life measured by extremes, and all the people, places, and events that shaped that life into a survivor’s tale of epic proportions. In its pages, Shaw takes the reader deep, not only into the recesses of his extraordinary mind and adventures, but also into the strange and magical process of memoir-writing itself.If truth is indeed stranger than fiction, then, as Shaw’s friend and literary mentor Charles Bukowski once told him, much of this book would have to be lived before it could be written. In that sense, Scab Vendor: Confessions of a Tattoo Artist is much more than a fascinating chronicle of a popular outlaw artist's creative evolution. It is a multicolored, cinematic, modern-day Odyssey, written in blood, ink, and tears—a kaleidoscopic, visionary roadmap to the journey of the human soul.
