Описание: A boundary pushing, extremely inventive sci-fi epic of first contact by world-renowned graphic designer and comics creator Rian Hughes

When a signal of extraterrestrial origin is intercepted by one of Earth's most powerful radio satellites, people worldwide, including a small team of tech outsiders at a software engineering firm specializing in artificial intelligence, race to interpret the message carried by what could be the first communication from an intergalactic civilization. Has humanity made first contact? Is the signal itself an alien life-form? A threat? If so, how will the people of Earth respond?

Supplemented by redacted NASA reports, magazine articles, secret transcripts, and a novel within the novel, all created by author Rian Hughes, XX is an epic literary sci-fi novel that explores the way ideas propagate and presents a compelling vision of humanity's unique place in the universe and a realistic depiction of what might happen in the wake of the biggest scientific discovery in human history. Propulsive and boldly designed, this captivating narrative of first contact, technological anxiety and innovation, and galactic exploration is an exciting and extraordinary addition to the science fiction genre.

Описание: This wordless collection of strips by renowned artist/designer Rian Hughes reveals the lighter side of our obsession with social rankings.

When everyone has a number, everyone knows their place. Lower numbers are better, higher numbers are less important, and that's just the way it is. But what if that number could change? You might try to buck the system and assert your individuality... or you might end up with a big fat zero.

Big questions are explored and unexpected answers found in the first solo comics collection from award-winning designer & illustrator Rian Hughes. His whimsical, witty, and insightful strips will make you both smile and consider. Where do you stand in the pecking order? Is your number up?

Описание:

Words are powerful, very powerful The words we use can uplift, encourage, comfort, teach, and guide the people around us and often will have long-lasting effects on your family, friends, and peers. How you use your words define you as a person, a leader, as a friend, coworker, etc. We speak about sixteen thousand words a day, almost six million words a year, enough to recite the Bible over seven times a year. How do we plan on using these sixteen thousand words every day? God tells us how to use these words to maximize our communication skills.

The truth is, there are over seven billion people in the world and not one thinks that same way you do. Therefore, to communicate effectively, we must know the thoughts, attitudes, emotions, and spiritual levels of the people with whom we interact. We do this through caring and listening with a godly attitude. This book describes how we as Christians--and quite frankly non-Christians--can effectively communicate with virtually everyone they speak to.

God has much to say about the words we use and how to use them, and we discuss these throughout the book. The Word says in James 1:26, "If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue deceives himself and his religion is worthless." Our religion is not worthless; through the Holy Spirit, it is our responsibility to use our words wisely. This book will help you build better relationships, be more a more effective communicator, and to further the Gospel of Christ by living and talking the way God wants you to.

Use those sixteen thousand words you speak every day to help, guide, encourage, teach, comfort, edify, spread the Gospel, and improve the life of those around you. This book will help you do just that

Описание:

What would you sacrifice to do the right thing?

New York City private investigator Gabriel Ross faces this elemental question in The Hanged Man. After seeing Gabriel confront a bigot in a controversial viral video, attorney Raymond Booth wants to hire him to probe a disturbing incident at Raymond's charitable foundation. As Gabriel is otherwise publicly scorned and losing clients, he's keen to take on Raymond's case. But then Raymond disappears. Raymond's sister Toni hires Gabriel to find the missing man. Gabriel turns up evidence of abduction--and then Raymond turns up dead.

Gabriel's obsession with the case pulls him into the mystery Raymond wanted him to solve. Gabriel has help from journalist Alex Barclay and Gabriel's former boyfriend Joel, leading to complications in his personal life. Gabriel begins unraveling a sinister secret connected to the foundation-a cabal tracing back to the origins of Nazism. Gabriel endeavors to uncover the conspiracy of Raymond's murder without losing his license, freedom, or life.

Описание:

A Multicultural View of Infidelity, Domestic Violence, State Intervention, and Parenting.

"Humbling and Humility" is an intense, detailed narrative of an Indian-American father and husband's struggle with betrayal by his spouse and its consequences upon himself and his children.

Including a critical view of state intervention into domestic discord in families in America, the narrative explores this father's attempts to mitigate harm and accommodate disruptive life changes in non-violent ways, both in his family and in other families in similar predicaments.

In raw and honest discussions, with no pretense of holding back, the author delves into culture and gender differences, and the many challenges immigrants face in America.
