  • From the Depths: And Other Strange Tales of the Sea

    Mike Ashley

    Paperback (British Library Publishing, April 1, 2019)
    From atop the choppy waves to the choking darkness of the abyss, the seas are full of mystery and rife with tales of inexplicable events and encounters with the unknown. In this anthology we see a thrilling spread of narratives: sailors are pitched against a nightmare from the depth, invisible to the naked eye; a German U-boat commander is tormented by an impossible transmission via Morse Code; a ship ensnares itself in the kelp of the Sargasso Sea and dooms a crew of mutineers, seemingly out of revenge for her lost captain. The supernatural is set alongside the grim affairs of sailors scorned in these salt-soaked tales, recovered from obscurity for the 21st century.

  • Prayers: The 40 Most Inspirational Prayers for Facing Challenging Times: Find Hope and Comfort in These Essential Prayers for Facing Troubling Times

    Ashley Ashley Myer

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Feb. 12, 2017)
    Find Hope and Comfort in These Essential Prayers for Facing Troubling Times The 40 Inspirational Prayers For Facing Challenging Times is dedicated to every Christian who has ever found it difficult to pray in times of stress and trouble. In these pages, you will find a collection of prayers suitable for Christians of all denominations. Please use these words as your own prayers. Use them also in inspiration; let them help you find the words to pray in challenging timesā€”and find the words to cry out to God. With powerful and uplifting language, this book helps you open a channel to God, build a relationship with Him, and be transformed by the power of prayer. God answers our prayers. We may not often see His hand at work, creating miracles and healing the sick as Jesus did, but that doesn't mean He is powerless to help us today. He can use us (and others) to do His Holy will in the world. We don't even need to recognize this; He moves in ways we cannot see. He always helps us through our difficulties and challenges in life. The more we seek Him, the more we will be able to see His hand at work. As we come to a better understanding of who God is and how much He loves us, we will become aware of what He has done and is willing to do. Because of His love, we find the answers to our prayersā€”even those that were there all along. Even if we can't see an immediate change in circumstance, we can learn to trust the heart of the Lord who loves us. Through the challenges in our lives, we can grow to become better peopleā€”and better Christians. These challenges shape us into the people the Lord wants us to beā€”if we allow Him to work in our lives. As we grow in faith and trust in the words of Jesus, we know that He will always be with us, ā€œeven to the end of the ageā€.

  • The Story of The Pictish Beast: The story behind the mythical creature featured on many Scottish standing stones

    Mark Ashley

    eBook (Socciones Editoria Digitale, Sept. 5, 2016)
    The Picts were a race that inhabited large tracts of present day Scotland from around AD300 and remained dominant for a period of 500 to 600 years. They were made up of many tribes, but despite their numbers little is known about them; in fact, the only surviving Pictish document is a list of the names of their kings. Some say they were warrior people, some call them the ā€˜Painted Peopleā€™ after the tattoos with which they adorned their bodies. To the south their neighbours varied with time from the Romans to the Britons and Angles. To the west they shared or disputed territory with the Scots invaders from DalRiada in Ireland. In their later years, the Picts had to contend with Viking invaders from Scandinavia in the north. It was a precarious life, in an often inhospitable but beautiful land.Knowledge of their language and culture has been lost through time, however, there remains one significant lasting reminder of the Picts; these are the Pictish Stones. There exists, mainly in the north and east of Scotland, around 350 of these standing stones, all of which have some sort of inscription upon them. Some of the inscriptions are religious in nature, some are of artefacts, and some of them are unidentifiable. Many of the stones have outlines of animals, among which are the serpent, the bull, the wolf and the deer. Yet of all the stone inscriptions, there is one image that is both most frequent in number, comprising of almost forty per cent of all animal images, and the most mystifying. It is known simply as the Pictish Beast. No-one has been able to tell what this creature was, or why it held such importance for the Picts. That is until now; this is the Story of the Pictish Beast! The Story of the Pictish Beast is the tale of the mythical, mystical creature of the stones, and the story of how a boyā€™s life becomes entwined with that of the Beast. It tells of the friendship that they formed and how that friendship leads both to revelations about the heritage of the boy and, more importantly, affects nothing less than the destiny of the Pictish race!
