Candide

"When Candide is cast out of his sheltered life, he embarks on a journey filled with war, natural disasters, betrayal, and heartbreak—all while clinging to the optimistic philosophy of his mentor, Pangloss. As he travels across Europe and the Americas, encountering a bizarre array of characters and suffering the harsh realities of life, Candide's faith in idealism is repeatedly tested. In this classic satire, Voltaire skewers the pretensions of philosophy, religion, and social systems, offering a compelling critique of human nature. A timeless classic, Candide is a powerful exploration of optimism, human folly, and the search for meaning in a chaotic world."

The Sword's Choice: The Sapphire Eruption

"The Sword's Choice: The Sapphire Eruption written by IM Redwright is an epic adventure! Unearth the complex lore, fantastical beasts, and intense combat in a rich, medieval world! Thrilling and action-packed, easy to read.... my 13 year old boy couldn't put it down. Secrets and dangerous intrigue keep the tension high as both Noakhail and the princess try their best to do what they see as being right. It's a nicely done weave, which keeps the reader bound to the pages. Add this to the more direct writing style, and it makes for a read which is easy to pick up and settle in with. It will be exciting to see where the adventures go next. A fascinating medieval world, with magical swords, elemental kingdoms, and contains positive messages about never giving up. But once a year, the skies burn red. Upon this day, the Fire Kingdom’s priests perform their ritual: each newborn’s palm is lacerated, opened with a sacred sword, for Firia’s next ruler will be seen to shed no blood. Long ago, Noakhail had been driven from the Fire Kingdom as an infant—forced to escape with his noble father. They’d wanted to kill him simply because he was next in line for the crown . . . Now, Noakhail has grown, and the swordsman won’t give up until he claims the throne and his birthright. But pure resolve may not be enough. He first must face grave danger as he cuts across the four kingdoms with his fire sword. Meanwhile, Princess Vienne is mistreated by her elder sisters. Shy and soft-spoken, she couldn’t be more unsuitable to rule the Queendom of Water. Alas, the Aqua Deus can be capricious, and the fates aren’t clear. Vienne will have to prove that she is capable of mastering the sacred water sword if she should hope to reign with pride. Unbeknownst to Noakhail and Vienne, their tales run parallel . . . and only one result can lie ahead: a ruthless battle. This audiobook is masterfully read by Peter Kenny, and was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont. Audio engineering by Sam Platt."

The Science of Getting Rich

"Wallace D. Wattles spent a lifetime considering the laws of success as he found them in the work of the world's great philosophers. He then turned his life effort into this simple, slender book – a volume that he vowed could replace libraries of philosophy, spirituality, and self-help for the purpose of attaining one definite goal: a life of prosperity. Wattles describes a definite science of wealth attraction, built on the foundation of one commanding idea: 'There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made. A thought, in this substance, produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.' In these seventeen short chapters, Wattles shows how to use this idea, how to overcome barriers to its application, and how work with very direct methods that awaken it in your life."
