  For readers who enjoy a dark and mysterious plot with their sexy books, comes the prequel story to this kinky m/m ( m/m/m) series inspired by the Edgar Allan Poe story, “The Fall of the House of Usher.” 
  This prequel story answers the questions posed by the House of Otter series but can be read before or after the complete trilogy. 
  On the shore of a small beach town, decades before the mysterious House of Otter spoke to Alexander, it called to a different furry young gay man. This starry-eyed, down-on-his-luck queer hustler is confronted by a powerful millionaire in the sand who leads him from the ocean to a new way of life. 
  Leaving a trail of money, extravagance, jockstraps, and large toys in their path across continents, the Daddy and boy pair awaken sexual magic which has been lying dormant in an abandoned mansion. 
  When they reach their luxurious destination they are met with more furry otters and colorful sexy jockstraps. Danger looms around the collection of gay men as the beach bum with a fetish for exhibitionism, unexpectedly finds himself participating in an ancient sexual ritual. 
  Will the cycle be completed in time? How will these events, which occurred long before Alexander joined the House of Otter, impact the future for this young man and those who come after him? In whichever order you decide to read them, the House of Otter series is not complete without the questions only this prequel story can answer. 
  It’s Edgar Allan Poe but with a queer, kinky, and paranormal twist! 
  This MM BDSM Dark Erotic Romance takes consent seriously. No otter boys were harmed (unless they wanted to be) in the writing of this book.*

  In The Ethics of Rhetoric, Richard M. Weaver evaluates the ethical and cultural role of rhetoric and its reflection on society. Weaver draws upon classical notions of rhetoric in Plato's Phaedrus, and he examines the effectiveness and implications of the manipulation of language in the works of Lincoln, Burke, and Milton. In this collection of essays, Weaver examines how different types of rhetoric persuade, their varying levels of effectiveness and credibility, and how one's manner of argumentation and style of persuasion are indicative of character. Ultimately, Weaver argues that the cultivation of pure language creates pure people. Initially published in 1953, The Ethics of Rhetoric remains timeless in its evaluation of rhetoric's role in society. 
  Richard M. Weaver (1910-1963) an esteemed scholar, humanist, cultural critic, and political philosopher, revolutionized conservativism of the mid-twentieth century. Weaver's original scholarship produced groundbreaking insight on human nature and society.

  The 1987 State of the Union Address delivered January 27, 1987, in the 200th anniversary year of the U.S. Constitution, notes dramatic improvements in the inflation rate, interest rates, housing starts, and the unemployment rate. Reagan regrets the Iran-Contra controversy and promises to get to the bottom of it and take whatever action is called for. 
  Though the Soviets transferred $75 billion in weapons to client-states like Syria, Vietnam, Cuba, Libya, Angola, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, and Nicaragua, the Congress cut administration requests for security assistance and defense. There “is no surer way to lose freedom than to lose our resolve.” As President Truman said: “International communism seeks to crush and undermine and destroy the independence of the Americas. We cannot let that happen here.” 
  Our Strategic Defense Initiative, SDI, “is the most positive and promising defense program we have undertaken. It's the path, for both sides, to a safer future -- a system that defends human life instead of threatening it.” 
  We support free trade and “expanding peaceful commerce across the world.” We remain opposed as ever to protectionism…” 
  The “federal deficit is outrageous.” We need “a constitutional amendment that mandates a balanced budget”. We need “a line-item veto so we can carve out the boondoggles and pork…” “We have deficits because big government spends too much.” 
  The U.S. Constitution “grew out of the most fundamental inspiration of our existence: that we are here to serve Him by living free -- that living free releases in us the noblest of impulses and the best of our abilities; that we would use these gifts for good and generous purposes and would secure them not just for ourselves and for our children but for all mankind.”

He was detained and banned to Siberia by Tsarist authorities in the year 1898 for advanced activity. In the year 1902, he got away Siberia for London, where he ended up being good friends with Vladimir Lenin. At the time of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party's preliminary organizational split in the year 1903, he supported Julius Martov's Mensheviks against Lenin's Bolsheviks.
