  This exciting and groundbreaking fiction anthology showcases a number of new and emerging 2SQ (Two-Spirit and queer Indigenous) writers from across Turtle Island. These visionary authors show how queer Indigenous communities can bloom and thrive through utopian narratives that detail the vivacity and strength of 2SQness throughout its plight in the maw of settler colonialism's histories. 
   
   
   
  Here, listeners will discover bio-engineered AI rats, transplanted trees in space, the rise of a 2SQ resistance camp, a primer on how to survive Indigiqueerly, virtual reality applications, motherships at sea, and the very bending of space-time continuums queered through NDN time. Love after the End demonstrates the imaginatively queer Two-Spirit futurisms we have all been dreaming of since 1492. 
   
   
   
  Contributors include Darcie Little Badger, Mari Kurisato, Kai Minosh Pyle, David Alexander Robertson, and jaye simpson.

  Alien Gods

  Before time was recorded by mankind there were the ancient gods of Mesopotamia. Before civilization emerged, before Empires grew, they came and created a hybrid slave race we now call humanity. 
   
  This is the story of the Anunnaki, the ancient gods. All religions, myths and mysteries emerged in these ancient times. Flying angels and chariots. Sky ships and miracles. Great constructions in an age supposedly named after stone. The facts do not fit the standard history. Instead, they fit a massive tale of a superior species that came to Earth, created a slave race to mine and serve, and then left behind mystery. 
   
  This is the story of those alien gods.

  Influence, at its core, means having the power to affect people or situations. Subconsciously, we are constantly influenced and are influencing others through countless factors that impact our decisions. Even something as mundane as choosing toothpaste involves a myriad of external influences. Influence is a universal phenomenon, not confined by species or origin. Although the factors that contribute to influence might seem endless, social scientists have identified fewer than ten key aspects. This book will explore how to effectively influence others to achieve your desired outcomes. 
  Influence is a part of everyday interactions, whether you're a stockbroker, salesperson, manager, employee, boss, or even a housemaid. We influence others to gain various benefits: we might perform well at work to earn a day off, show affection to receive love in return, or charm a salesperson to get a discount. We influence and are influenced in every interaction. So, how can we get people to do what we truly want them to do? Let's explore this. 
    
  Regardless of whether you're trying to influence a customer, a supervisor, a coworker, or a family member, the underlying process remains consistent, and certain conditions are necessary for achieving significant success. But first, consider why you want to influence others and whether your motives are grounded in respect, integrity, compassion, or noble intentions.

  Stories of Cape Cod is a rich and engaging journey through one of America’s most storied regions, told town by town and voice by voice. 
  Written in an inviting, conversational style, Jack Johnson brings Cape Cod’s past to life through a series of short historical narratives and local anecdotes that span centuries of New England life. From the early settlements of Bourne and Sandwich to the windswept shores of Chatham and Wellfleet, each chapter explores the unique character of a Cape town—its people, its industries, its legends, and the events that shaped it. 
  Listeners will encounter tales of maritime adventure, wartime service, invention, and everyday resilience, alongside memorable figures such as Myles Standish, Daniel Webster, Admiral Nimitz, and the lesser-known but equally fascinating locals who defined their communities. Stories of glassmaking, canal construction, fishing, shipbuilding, and small-town enterprise paint a vivid portrait of Cape Cod as both a working landscape and a cultural crossroads. 
  Narrated with warmth and clarity by Tony J. Martin, this audiobook feels less like a formal history and more like a guided walk through time—full of human detail, quiet drama, and regional charm. 
  Perfect for listeners interested in New England history, American local color writing, or the enduring spirit of coastal communities, Stories of Cape Cod preserves the voices, memories, and traditions that continue to shape the Cape.

  The first-person account of how a small band of Green Berets used horses and laser-guided bombs to overthrow the Taliban and al-Qaeda in Afghanistan after 9/11. 
   
   
   
  They landed in a dust storm so thick the chopper pilot used dead reckoning and a guess to find the ground. Welcomed by a band of heavily armed militiamen, they climbed a mountain on horseback to meet the most ferocious warlord in Asia. They plotted a war of nineteenth-century maneuvers against a twenty-first-century foe. They trekked through minefields, sometimes past the mangled bodies of local tribesmen who'd shared food with them hours before. They saved babies and treated fractures, sewed up wounded who'd been transported from the battlefield by donkey. They found their enemy hiding in thick bunkers, dodged bullets from machine-gun-laden pickup trucks, and survived mass rocket attacks from vintage Soviet-era launchers. They battled the Taliban while mediating blood feuds between rival allies. They fought with everything they had, from smart bombs to AK-47s.The men they helped called them brothers. Hollywood called them the Horse Soldiers. 
   
   
   
  They called themselves Green Berets—Special Forces ODA 595.
