Of Cockroaches and Crickets -...

Frank Nischk

For many people, cockroaches are the most pesky of pests. In this funny and fascinating book, Frank reveals his love and admiration for so-called "nasty" creatures like cockroaches, crickets, and more. He shows us that even seemingly terrifying insects are beautiful in their own way—and essential to all life on Earth. 
 
 
 
Frank never planned to study cockroaches. But when researching hummingbirds fell through, he switched to cockroach feces—and soon fell in love. Cockroaches are incredible survivors, devoted parents, and adapt to almost any environment. Nischk even answers the age-old question of whether a cockroach would survive a nuclear explosion. After hearing such eye-opening and warm-hearted stories, you'll think twice before stepping on one! 
 
 
 
From cockroaches to crickets, Nischk travels to Ecuador to record cricket sounds, where he finds jungles bursting with a riot of insect life (including bullet ants whose stings are surprisingly painful). As Nischk tells his (mis)adventures as an entomologist, he shares stories about intriguing insect discoveries, from damselflies who lay eggs deep underwater, to zombie fungi that invade the brains of ants. Brimming with fascinating facts, incredible stories, and unbelievable anecdotes, Of Cockroaches and Crickets will intrigue anyone who has ever loved—or hated!—bugs.

Types of UFOs Observed in History

Martin K. Ettington

My goal in this book is to show the different types of UFOs reported throughout history and today. 
I’m not trying to prove whether these ships are real or not. I just thought that given the many thousands of sightings of UFOs there should be some commonalities between the sightings. 
Some of the questions I want to answer include: 
Are there any trends in these sightings? 
Is there an evolution in the design of these vehicles over time? 
Are there some common designs over time? 
Also, some of the UFOs sighted are likely fakes or secret projects built by the US government. I tried to show that information too. 
Just due to the number of stars in our galaxy I’m convinced that Aliens exist and have probably visited our planet thousands or even millions of year in the past-in addition to visiting in the present. 
This collection of historical photos, drawings, and descriptions should provide you with a narrative as to how these sightings have changed over time.

Resident Evil

Philip J Reed

Now a sprawling video game franchise, Resident Evil has kept us on the edge of our seats for decades with its tried-and-true brand of jump scares, zombie action, and biological horror. But even decades after its release, we can't stop revisiting the original's thrills, chills, and sometimes unintentional spills. 
 
  
 
Pop culture writer and horror cinephile Philip J Reed takes dead aim at 1996's Resident Evil, the game that named and defined the genre we now call "survival horror." While examining Resident Evil's influences from the worlds of film, literature, and video games alike, Reed's love letter to horror examines how the game's groundbreaking design and its atmospheric fixed-cam cinematography work to thrill and terrify players—and why that terror may even be good for you. 
 
 
 
Featuring a foreword from Troma Entertainment legend Lloyd Kaufman and new interviews with the game's voice actors and its live-action cast, the book serves as the master of unlocking the behind-the-scenes secrets of Resident Evil, and shows how even a game filled with the most laughable dialogue can still scare the pants off of you.
