Summer. It's the time when we take vacations, go swimming, and generally veg out. Many people like to find some light summer reading for the long, lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer. If that's you, you've come to the right place. This collection offers up fifteen stories by a dozen authors. Some are brief, and some are pleasant. Others are lengthy, and a couple of them are downright disturbing. They're all going to stay with you for a while.
Mother. For many, this is a comforting word, but for Philip, Mother is a controlling, manipulative monster who won't let him live his life. Philip McReynolds is a young man coming of age in a world that says that greed, selfishness and being sexually experienced are things that are expected of a young man. However, this is not the type of person Philip is. He is a reader, a writer, a dreamer of dreams, and when he meets the girl of his dreams, a 17-year-old girl named Amanda, he begins the journey to break free of his mother's possessiveness and become Amanda's knight in shining armor.
In TILT, the final installment of the Gatespace Trilogy, decades have passed since ChroNova's original discovery of the Gates, and the company's prohibition against using the technology for things like sightseeing have become all but ignored - which may have the minor side effect of resulting in the mass extinction of all humanity. Will Nigel, Terry and Sarah be able to reverse the actions that threaten the safety of the entire world?
"Lucid Dreaming" is a compilation of twenty-one short pieces -- essays and short stories, some persuasive, some humorous, both fiction and non-fiction, all of them shot through with Seeger's patented brand of wry observation and dry wit, collected here for the first time.
Rick Harper is part of a research team that stumbles upon the secret of the mysterious Gatespace first seen in PINBALL. When he is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, he decides to attempt using the technology to influence his own past and try to add years to the time he has to spend with his beloved Stefanie -- with disastrous results. Journeying through the Gatespace to the year 2000, when Stefanie was a senior at Berkeley, Rick encounters a number of challenges that may prevent either one of them from making it home again.
Steven Denver is a writer struggling to find a plot for his next novel, the success of which - or lack of - will mean the continuance or the demise of his career. But when he stumbles upon a strange green whirlpool near his home, he discovers that it is a gateway through space and time. Exploring the Gatespace beyond leads him into worlds unknown and adventures that defy the imagination, perfect fuel for the creativity of an author... But there's just one complication... will he ever make it home to write that book? PINBALL is an exciting science fantasy roller coaster ride through space and time to strange, far-off worlds. "This story hooked me right from the beginning. Had me leaning forward and then sitting up straight at points, wanting to tell the main character not to do some of the things he attempted. A great roller coaster ride, and aptly titled. Some great spins on alternate realities, and the juggling of both time and reality. You will feel like a pinball long before this story ends, and enjoy every minute of it!" - Terry Schott, author of The Game

A ravenous beast. A blood-drinking monster. A pill that drops weight like magic, but has some, uh... side effects. A husband who takes out his revenge on his wife and gets a 2-for-1 special when he gets her lover too. All these and more are included in this collection from Bruno Carlos Santos and Alan Seeger.

(Large format full color version) Sunka Wakan. It's what the Lakota people call the horse. For hundreds of years, the horse has been a vehicle, a tool, a companion and a friend to many different tribes, not the least of which were the Lakota. "We Are A Horse Nation" is a documentary which tells the story of the Sunka Wakan Oyate (Horse Nation) from the perspective of the Oceti Sakowin (Seven Council Fires of the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota). As relatives (Mitakuye Oyasin), we want to bring together traditional and contemporary Lakota, Dakota and Nakota songs, stories, teachings, experiences, knowledge, thoughts and beliefs, to be compiled for a one-of-a-kind film resource to be utilized by the intended audience; the future generations of the Oceti Sakowin.
Alan Seeger (22 June 1888 - 4 July 1916) was an American war poet who fought and died in World War I during the Battle of the Somme, serving in the French Foreign Legion. Seeger was the brother of Charles Seeger, a noted American pacifist and musicologist. He is best known for the poem I Have a Rendezvous with Death, a favorite of President John F. Kennedy. A statue representing him is on the monument in the Place des États-Unis, Paris, honoring fallen Americans who volunteered for France during the war. Seeger is sometimes called the "American Rupert Brooke."
