    In “Bhagavad Gita for Beginners: The Song of God in Simplified Prose,” author Edward Viljoen uses contemporary, simplified language to bring this inspiring work to life. That which seems to be forcing people to act in selfish--even evil--ways is really the accumulation of desires coming together in a strong, irresistible appetite for self-satisfaction. These desires are rooted in the senses, and sense information can be misleading. More powerful than the senses, though, is the mind. And more powerful than the mind is the will (or intellect), and that which is above it all,--the Real Self, that part of us not deluded by the information of the sense world. The Bhagavad Gita For Beginners: The Song Of God In Simplified Prose will inspire uninitiated readers of the Bhagavad-Gita to delve into the original text, as well as bring a newly-found clarity and perspective to those already familiar with it.

    Jeff is the only man to succeed at ALL THREE elite US Military Special Operations qualifications schools. His book aptly titled "You Want Me to Do What?" is a terrific account of what truly happens at Army Special Forces, Navy SEAL and Army Ranger TrainingHave you ever wondered what it would REALLY be like to go through Navy SEAL training? You may have heard the stories about the toughest military training in the world. What about Army Ranger training; the Army's elite shock troops? Prospective Rangers subsist on one MRE a day while humping 20 miles to recon their objective. How about Special Forces Green Beret training? Officially called the Q course, Army SF training has its own unique physical, mental and psychological tricks and traumas.Many people seem to think of Green Berets Army Rangers or Navy SEALs as supermen - in the Rambo sense of the word. This book exposes the human side of the men who become those Green Berets or Rangers or SEALs. Television and the movies tend to glorify these characters and would never show Rambo lost on a navigation operation saying a prayer before coming in for a rock portage or falling asleep on an ambush. This humorous side of these supermen-in-training is one of the foremost themes of this book.

The Banished Lands has a violent past where armies of men and giants clashed shields in battle, the earth running dark with their heartsblood. Although the giant-clans were broken in ages past, their ruined fortresses still scar the land. But now giants stir anew, the very stones weep blood and there are sightings of giant wyrms. Those who can still read the signs see a threat far greater than the ancient wars. Sorrow will darken the world, as angels and demons make it their battlefield. Then there will be a war to end all wars. High King Aquilus summons his fellow kings to council, seeking an alliance in this time of need. Some are skeptical, fighting their own border skirmishes against pirates and giants. But prophesy indicates darkness and light will demand two champions, the Black Sun and the Bright Star. They would be wise to seek out both, for if the Black Sun gains ascendancy, mankind’s hopes and dreams will fall to dust.
