Tearmoon Empire (Manga) Volume 4

Nozomu Mochitsuki

Summary

Bare your blades, students of Saint-Noel! The biannual swordsmanship tournament has arrived, and the competition is as fierce as the stakes are high! Will Prince Abel manage to prevail in a battle of wills against his chauvinistic brother? Can anyone stop Prince Sion’s meteoric rise through the ranks? And when the day is finally won, who will emerge victorious as the academy’s finest swordsman?
 
Unbeknownst to most of the student body, however, the most intense bout of the day will not be fought up on stage. No, that battle to end all battles will play out during the tournament’s lunch break, when Mia’s masterpiece of a sandwich is finally put to the test! Will her culinary genius manage to secure Abel’s affection—and, more importantly, the aid of his kingdom’s military in the event of a revolution? Or will Keithwood’s incessant nit-picking and idea-quashing ruin everything?

Alice in Blunderland

John Kendrick Bangs

""Alice in Blunderland: An Iridescent Dream" is a novel by John Kendrick Bangs, first published in 1907 by Doubleday, Page & Co. of New York. Illustrated by Albert Levering, this work serves as a political parody of Lewis Carroll's famous Alice books: "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (1865) and "Through the Looking-Glass" (1871).    In this whimsical tale, Alice finds herself in "Blunderland", also humorously referred to as "Municipal Ownership Country". Here, she encounters familiar characters from Wonderland, including the dormouse, the Mad Hatter, and the Cheshire Cat. However, instead of whimsical adventures, Alice grapples with issues critical of collectivism, taxation, corporate greed, and corruption.    The novel playfully transports readers to a satirical realm where absurdity meets political commentary. "

My Cosmic Brain

Michael Mathiesen

My story is about a man in his seventies, a pseudo scientist who has his brain removed from his skull and placed inside a lab aquarium - the 'Manaquarium' so that they can study his consciousness. (FYI - They removed Einstein's brain but only checked out his basic anatomy and found that he had way more glial cells than the rest of us - what a waste.)  In this case, they get a bit further down the road.  Our hero, Henry has made it his life's goal to learn more about the connections of the human soul to the rest of the vastness of space/time.  Freed from the constraints of all of his biological functions, his mind is able to go where no man has gone before.   
So - in the Think Tank and connected to the Super Lepton Collider, the upgraded Webb and Hubble Telescopes and the Very Large Array, Hank is able to discern something that appears to be the 2nd Big Bang! If you thought the first Big Bang was all there is, you have a huge shock in store for yourself.  As it turns out, they're going on all over the place and sometimes, they even collide into one another and cause havoc over large sections of the universe. 
This is also a love story that connects the reader to the meaning and purpose of Cosmic Consciousness but in a completely new way - it's Science.    
All of this plays out against the background of our planet on fire and all life on Earth on the verge of extinction - even the oceans catch fire - (taken from actual recent headlines.) But cruising closer to the 2nd Big Bang with the aid of Jeff Bezos and his new Space company - everything works out in the end and all of human life becomes justified at last - but in a slightly different and higher context than the way we justify ourselves at the present..   
I don't want to give away the ending. I'm hopeful that I've done Arthur C. Clarke and Kurt Vonnegut proud.

"The adventures of Vampire Hunter D continue!

Vampires: murderous creatures in the shape of humans, they stalk the night feeding on the blood of innocents. Seemingly immortal, they can be destroyed only by the use of a stake through the heart, severing of their heads, or exposure to sunlight. By the year 12,090 A.D. vampires have ruled the Earth for almost 300 years, and it is only these weaknesses that have kept these foul monsters from totally overrunning the world.

But what happens when those rules no longer apply? The village of Tsepesh sits in the eternal shadow of an abandoned castle, a onetime stronghold of the Nobility, the vampire lords who rule the devastated wasteland of the future. Ten years ago four children disappeared while playing near the castle, only to mysteriously reappear a month later. Now vampires have begun to hunt in the daylight. Are the two events connected? The villagers turn to the vampire hunter known only as D, but as he follows the children, now adults, the answers he finds may be more terrifying than anything he could ever imagine.
