  First Line-Of-Defense for Unprecedented XtremesMan's curiosity has led to great advances, but it has also brought on great peril. The tinkering of man has triggered an apocalyptic end that can't be stopped. By chance, or divine intervention, eight humans have been empowered by celestial orbs, giving them access to ancient power not meant for The Earthly Realm. Will this new power be enough to stop the onslaught of an alien enemy? "FLUX: Celestial Genesis" is the first in the FLUX Continuum series. Traversing through time, space, and new realities, The Twelve are the only hope to save All Of Creation. Man should have kept earth hidden; now that they know, the extinction can begin. An annihilation force known throughout the "Universe" as the Bahkrata are now aware of planet Earth. The desires of this civilization are to raid, pillage and enslave humans so their world can be replenished through the excavating of Earth's global resources. While unknown to those existing within the "Universe," an unfathomable all consuming threat is coming. The dimensional barriers have been breached and "Paradise" is no longer hidden. The lines between good and evil become blurred, as heroes rise to face the end of everything.#FLUX #IFluxWitIt www.flux-zodiac.com @flux_chaos facebook, instagram, twittereBook ISBN:   9781098314781Paperback ISBN:   9781098314774

  Frida Kahlo - An Illustrated Life

  “A vibrantly illustrated biography of Kahlo . . . [Hesse’s] drawings and graphics [flow] seamlessly with the narration.” —Houston Chronicle 
   
  One of the most important artists of the twentieth century and an icon of courageous womanhood, Frida Kahlo lives on in the public imagination, where her popularity shows no signs of waning. She is renowned for both her paintings and her personal story, which were equally filled with pain and anguish, celebration and life. Thousands of words, including her own, have been written about Kahlo, but only one previous biography has recorded her fascinating, difficult life. Frida Kahlo by María Hesse offers a highly unique way of getting to know the artist by presenting her life in graphic novel form, with striking illustrations that reimagine many of Kahlo’s famous paintings. 
   
  Originally published in Spanish in 2016, Frida Kahlo has already found an enthusiastic audience in the Spanish-speaking world, with some 20,000 copies sold in just a few months. This translation introduces English-language readers to Kahlo’s life, from her childhood and the traumatic accident that would change her life and her artwork, to her complicated love for Diego Rivera and the fierce determination that drove her to become a major artist in her own right. María Hesse tells the story in a first-person narrative, which captures both the depths of Frida’s suffering and her passion for art and life. 
   
  “Despite the often light mood of the artwork, the book never shies from weighty consideration of the physical pain and personal loss that gave way—in fleeting but significant moments—to Kahlo’s artistic triumph.” —Publishers Weekly

  In an era before the advent of electric lights, telephones or motor vehicles, there exists a small cluster of aristocratic "old revolutionary stock" families that rule New York's social life. Under the rules of this society, "being things" is better than "doing things" and reputation and outward appearances come at the exclusion of everything else. In this Gilded Age, when America's expansion and increased industrialism produce a group of newly wealthy robber barons and financiers, the patient, time-honored values of the old ruling class, and century, are giving way to the expediencies of the new. Caught at this cusp, a triangle of lovers, who must choose between the expectations of family and society, and the deepest yearnings of the heart.Newly engaged couple, Newland Archer, a young lawyer, and May Welland, a society debutante, are part of the old world, where the "right people" follow the "correct rules" and marry into "acceptable families." The arrival from Europe of May's cousin, the Countess Ellen Olenska, complicates their union, as Ellen's mysterious past threatens to cast a shadow of scandal over the newly betrothed couple. Newland Archer, at first critical of Ellen's bohemian lifestyle, and her seemingly wilful ignorance of the rules and customs of his Old New York, is soon captivated by Ellen's warmth, spirit, and her generous and loving heart. Will he cast off the life for which he's been groomed, or sacrifice happiness for duty and the greater good of the social order?
