Don't let the bright lights of the Sears Tower fool you. This is Englewood, Chicago, known to most as "Chiraq," an infested gangland captured under the thumb of a vicious dictatorship. Unlike any other major city, the control of the streets doesn't lie in the conniving hands of the city's top cops or politicians. In plain view, the city is controlled by the iron fist of over two hundred thousand religiously dedicated Gangster Disciples, BDs, Vice Lords, and Black P. Stones. Only the people of high society who reside in the downtown area are barely safe. But within the surrounding districts, suicidal pawns dominate their gang territories, not using common sense but reverting to assault rifles to settle their different views and disagreements, causing the citizens of Chicago to live in constant fear. There in the midst of the gang infestation stood a young, curious, and malleable ten-year-old Englewood kid named Jimmy, better known as Jay. Once left behind by his family, feeling abandoned, Jay took to the allure of the "street life," opposed to the golden teachings and directions of his stern father. No longer exhausting his mental energy behind unanswered questions like "Why my momma leave me?" with his mind made up, along with a grudge and a chip on his shoulder, Jay, with high street ambition, set out to be King of a world that assured only one thing: all kings eventually wake up with their heads cut off! This is the unflattering true story of Jimmy Jones Jr.

The Blood Angels Space Marines must defend their home world from the ravenous threat of the tyranid Hive Fleet Leviathan. A tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan has reached the Cryptus shieldworlds. The Imperium musters its strength, for the aliens must be stopped here, as next in the hive fleet’s path is the home world of the Blood Angels Space Marines, Baal itself. Many are the battlefields and the price of victory is steep… On Phodia, the sons of Sanguinius give battle to the dreaded Spawn of Cryptus. At Lysios, the Adepta Sororitas and Tempestus Scions hold the line against Leviathan. Far from the fighting, Blood Angels Sergeant Jatiel finds himself pitted against another threat, the necrons of Anrakyr the Traveller who may yet have a crucial impact on the greater war.

This book started as a bedtime story Kyle made-up and told to his three children. They loved the story so much they begged him to turn it into a book he could read to them, complete with illustrations. The story is based off the blessing attributed to Saint Teresa of Avilla, “Christ Has No Body But Yours”. The blessing draws us out of an internalized and personal religious experience to an outward manifestation of the teachings of Jesus.

Peer into the into the bizarre culture and motivations of the Necrons in this great novel from Nate Crowley. After centuries of exile, the necron lord Oltyx has at last been granted the thing he has always craved: the throne of the Ithakas Dynasty. Kingship, however, is not quite what he had hoped for. Oltyx’s reign begins aboard the dying battleship Akrops, as it lumbers away from the ruins of his crownworld. Behind it is a hostile armada of unfathomable size, launched by the barbaric alien war-cult known as the Imperium of Man. And within the Akrops’ sepulchral hold, an even greater threat festers: the creeping horror of the flayer curse. Faced with such overwhelming odds, Oltyx begins a desperate voyage into a darkness so profound that salvation and doom look much the same. If he and his dynasty are to make it through that long night, Oltyx will have to become a very different sort of king.

New York in the late 1980s. Ceinwen Reilly has just moved from Yazoo City, Mississippi, and she’s never going back, minimum wage job (vintage store salesgirl) and shabby apartment (Avenue C walkup) be damned. Who cares about earthly matters when Ceinwen can spend her days and her nights at fading movie houses—and most of the time that’s left trying to look like Jean Harlow? One day, Ceinwen discovers that her downstairs neighbor may have—just possibly—starred in a forgotten silent film that hasn’t been seen for ages. So naturally, it’s time for a quest. She will track down the film, she will impress her neighbor, and she will become a part of movie history: the archivist as ingénue. As she embarks on her grand mission, Ceinwen meets a somewhat bumbling, very charming, 100% English math professor named Matthew, who is as rational as she is dreamy. Together, they will or will not discover the missing reels, will or will not fall in love, and will or will not encounter the obsessives that make up the New York silent film nut underworld. A novel as winning and energetic as the grand Hollywood films that inspired it, Missing Reels is an irresistible, alchemical mix of Nora Ephron and David Nicholls that will charm and delight.

Homer, a bold and smart-mouthed angel, has been in isolation for nine-hundred years. She misbehaves and tests the boundaries of God, which was what put her in isolation in the first place. She doesn't like the simpering League of Angels members, especially Gabriel--she has no place for such a goody two-shoes--and she doesn't trust God and cares little what anyone thinks of her. Despite her fussiness and track record of failure, she's sent to Earth to do what needs to be done. Her mission is to help Tom summers, a struggling columnist for an expanding magazine empire in Los Angeles--to Homer, the epicenter of Western egocentrism and inauthenticity. She must help him publish a book that would ultimately change Earth's fate. Unsure how to accomplish her task, she wants more of God's help or for Him to send Tom a sign, but always a stickler for free will, God won't let her interfere with humanity. Still, it's up to her to save the world, she believes God is against her, and time is ticking. No pressure. Left to her own devices, Homer wonders whether humanity is worth saving. She believes humans to be violent, self-centered brats. Earth itself is a trash heap, already polluted by all of God's chosen people. Is there anything left to save? Tom, along with some other eccentric Earth-walkers, might change her perspective, but in the end, the fate of the world rests in Homer's angelic hands.
