  A young man must overcome a horrific past in order to release his inner demons in Justin Forest’s shocking new cross-genre novel, Lolita in the Lion’s Den. Glen has fought for years to escape a brutal home life, one in which he acts as his mother’s only friend and to accept that his father has been molesting his sister for over a decade. But after dropping out of high school and spending years working aimless jobs, Glen finally turns a new chapter when he enters the thrill of college life. But with that freedom comes disturbing sexual desires and inclinations. Having become increasingly reliant on his own fantasy world, Glen soon finds himself mired in the world of adult pornography and struggling with his attraction to both women and girls. Haunted by the damage his father’s actions wrought on his family and other victims, Glen must come to terms with his admiration for the exact thing his father so actively destroyed. More relevant than ever in today’s hypersexualized world, Lolita in the Lion’s Den is an emotionally provocative read that gets to the heart of some of society’s most pressing issues.

  New York's Secret Subway - The...

  In the nineteenth century, Manhattan's streets were so choked with pedestrians, horses, vehicles, and vendors that a trip from City Hall to Central Park could take hours. Alfred Beach had the perfect solution: build a giant pneumatic tube underneath Broadway from the Battery to Harlem. Air pressure would shoot passengers up and down the island in clean, quiet carriages. But Beach was up against the operators of the horse-drawn streetcars and the politicians in their pay, most conspicuously William M. Tweed, the notorious "Boss" of Tammany Hall.New York's Secret Subway: The Underground Genius of Alfred Beach and the Origins of Mass Transit tells a classic story of good versus evil, pitting the mild-mannered Beach, a visionary inventor and entrepreneur, against the oafish tyrant Tweed, the exemplar of corruption in the Gilded Age. It also tells the story of one of the most astonishing feats of engineering in American history, the surreptitious creation of the nation's first operational subway. Unfortunately, political lethargy and greed would conspire to deny the city a subway for another thirty years. Yet Alfred Beach still proved conclusively the feasibility of underground railways in Manhattan, and paved the way for modern mass transportation systems. Although this true story took place more than a century ago, it will at times sound surprisingly familiar.

  A classic memoir from the Battle of the Atlantic 
  Donald Macintyre’s U-Boat Killer is a unique account of the Battle of the Atlantic from the perspective of a British destroyer captain who fought through this brutal campaign. Few other books transport the reader to the deck of a convoy escort in the cold, stormy seas of the Atlantic Ocean and bring to life the terrifying conflict between the Royal Navy and the U-boats. 
  Over the course of four unrelenting years, Captain Macintyre escaped the clutches of the German “wolf packs” and brought dozens of convoys to safety. Credited with destroying seven U-boats, Macintyre was a calculated master of combating his underwater foes and, during one savage night, captured Germany’s greatest U-boat commander, Otto Kretschmer, and sank another famous ace. 
  His memoir, U-Boat Killer, charts the course of the Atlantic war and explores how both Allied and Axis strategies developed until the convoys were able to turn the tide of the war in 1943. 
  This book should be essential listening for all fascinated by the longest campaign of World War II and for those who wish to learn more about the lives of the men who kept the war against the Nazis going even through the Allies’ darkest moments.

  Carol's Lives: Two Soul's Journey in Two Cities and Beyond is a reflective, genre-blending work that unfolds through lived past life regression experiences—now brought into a more intimate, immersive form through audio. 
  Drawing from real sessions conducted by a clinical hypnotherapist, the story follows two individuals as their lives—across time, place, and identity—begin to reveal unexpected connections. 
  Moving between Vancouver and New York, listeners are guided through vivid regressions into other lifetimes, including the life of “Carol,” a woman navigating love, ambition, and constraint in early 20th-century Manhattan. As the sessions deepen, emotional patterns and relational threads begin to surface with striking clarity. 
  Blending narrative, session material, and reflection, this audiobook invites you not just to understand the experience—but to feel it unfold. The spoken format brings a different layer of presence, allowing the pacing, tone, and emotion of each moment to come through in a more direct way. 
  Accessible to both skeptics and believers, Carol’s Lives offers a grounded yet open-minded exploration of past life regression as a tool for self-discovery. It does not ask for belief, only attention. 
  At its core, this is a story about connection—between people, across lifetimes, and within the deeper layers of the self.
