Summary

Exams can be life-changing. Failing one just ended Allen’s promising career at the royal court before it began. Now, to make ends meet, the lowborn sorcerer must help one of the kingdom’s highest-born young ladies pass hers. Duke Howard’s daughter Tina has a brilliant mind, but the prestigious Royal Academy demands magic. Try as she might, she can’t cast a single spell, and her impairment has baffled the kingdom’s finest minds for years. With the all-important entrance exams just three months away, Allen and his unorthodox brand of spellcasting seem like her last hope to realize her dream of learning sorcery in the capital. So why does her father, the duke, want the young tutor to dash her dreams instead?

    "Global Dictator Handbook" is a satirical, dystopian narrative that uses humor to critique the extreme nature of dictatorship. It serves as a cautionary tale about the erosion of freedoms and rights, reminding readers to cherish their freedom and autonomy.   
     This book's exaggerated scenarios and tongue-in-cheek comedy make it a compelling read for those interested in playfully educating themselves and others about the authoritarian regime that openly states its desire to enslave the entire world under the guise of a global credit score.   
     The "triple threat title" that this book offers are:   
     1. That you will be enslaved by the New World Order. 
    2. That The New World Order will be overthrown and judged by you. 
    3. That the God of the Bible has already won every battle and would love your voluntary alignment with his will as the Author and Finisher of all stories.    
     I pray this satire invites you to invite and trust him, who is faithful and proves that he is outside of our time domain by writing history in advance.  
    The biblical prophetic commentary that we eventually run into is that of my best understanding as an author, and I reserve the right to be wrong about everything. I encourage anybody to search out these things for themselves and make their own convictions about biblical, government and world events.  
     Master FEWNU, The personification of the one million billionaires who plan to enslave the 8 billion global residents, is my playful, creative way of personifying the road to hell that was paved by (some) good intentions of people who nobody voted for.  
     Cheers to your playful reverse psychology education!

    In her previous life, Xu Anran never realized her husband, Qin Xiaokun, was a wolf in sheep's clothing until it was too late. He had deceived her with a facade of affection, schemed to take over her family's fortune, and destroyed her loved ones. In the end, he even coldly ran her over to pursue his true love. 
    But now, Xu Anran has been given a second chance. She wakes up on the day of her marriage to Qin Xiaokun, five years before her tragic death. This time, she won’t be anyone’s fool. She’s determined to protect what’s rightfully hers and make every betrayal pay. 
    In front of the shocked Qin family, Xu Anran boldly approaches Jiang Rongyan, Qin Xiaokun's greatest rival, and asks with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, would you marry me?" 
    Jiang Rongyan accepts, and thus begins a new chapter of revenge, with Qin Xiaokun left humiliated in her wake. Xu Anran had planned to avoid relationships this time around, but as their arranged marriage comes to an end, Jiang Rongyan has no intention of letting her walk away so easily. 
    "You think you can leave after using me?" he says, his eyes gleaming. "You're dreaming."

    Possessing no supernatural powers, Batman is the most realistic of all the superheroes. His feats are achieved through rigorous training and mental discipline, and with the aid of fantastic gadgets. Drawing on his training as a neuroscientist, kinesiologist, and martial artist, E. Paul Zehr explores the question: Could a mortal ever become Batman? 
     
     
     
    Zehr discusses the physical training necessary to maintain bad-guy-fighting readiness while relating the science underlying this process, from strength conditioning to the cognitive changes a person would endure in undertaking such a regimen. In probing what a real-life Batman could achieve, Zehr considers the level of punishment a consummately fit and trained person could handle, how hard and fast such a person could punch and kick, and the number of adversaries that individual could dispatch. He also tells us what it would be like to fight while wearing a batsuit and the amount of food we'd need to consume each day to maintain vigilance as Gotham City's guardian. 
     
     
     
    A fun foray of escapism grounded in sound science, Becoming Batman provides the background for attaining the realizable—though extreme—level of human performance that would allow you to be a superhero.
