  Guy Burckhardt wakes from a terrifying dream of explosion and death, only to discover that his town of Tylerton looks perfectly normal—too normal. Familiar routines repeat with eerie precision, strangers promote unfamiliar products, and June 15th refuses to become June 16th. As Burckhardt searches for answers, small inconsistencies begin to pile up, hinting that the world around him may be an elaborate imitation rather than the life he remembers. 
  What begins as unease turns into a desperate investigation. Burckhardt uncovers hidden tunnels, artificial structures, and unsettling truths about the people around him—and about himself. The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that Tylerton is part of something vast, controlled, and disturbingly calculated. The story builds relentless tension as Burckhardt struggles to understand who is running this experiment, why it exists, and whether escape is even possible. 
  Frederik Pohl was one of the most influential voices in twentieth-century science fiction, known for combining sharp social critique with compelling storytelling. His work often examined consumerism, corporate power, and the psychological manipulation of modern life, themes that remain strikingly relevant today. 
  A prolific author and editor, Pohl helped shape the Golden Age of science fiction while pushing the genre toward deeper social awareness. The Tunnel Under the World stands as one of his most powerful and enduring stories, a masterclass in speculative fiction that still resonates with modern audiences.

Sproul.Davey was a young donkey who was bored and unhappy because he was never given anything to do. Then one day, some strangers came to the gate―and Davey’s master picked him for a very special task. Davey carried the King, Jesus, into Jerusalem. A few days later, Davey saw some angry people making the King carry a heavy beam of wood. Davey could not understand it―until another donkey helped him see that the King was being a Servant on behalf of His people.The Donkey Who Carried a King offers a unique perspective on the events of Jesus’ Passion Week and calls all believers, both young and old, to follow in the footsteps of the Suffering Servant for the glory of God. Jesus was willing to leave the glories of heaven to suffer and die in this world on our behalf, so we should serve Him with all our hearts.
