Journey Into Darkness: a Story in Four Parts (2nd Edition) Full Color
In a war in which more than a quarter million boys age seventeen and under fought in the opposing armies, Journey Into Darkness, a researched blend of fact and fiction, is about a young boy in the Civil War. Written specially for students, enjoyed by adults as well, it takes the student reader into the events of the war through the experience of a peer.
Originally published in four books at the request of a young reader on behalf of others who don’t like thick books.
“This would be an excellent resource for middle school American history classes, giving a boy’s-eye view of the Civil War and reminding students that kids their own age were caught up in active duty during the war.” – Blue Ink Review

JUSTIFIED LICENSE TO KILL
This is the true-life, roller coaster-ride story of a multi-talented, Earth-toned American singer, musician, and comedian, born and raised in Portland, Oregon, who survived a bullish upbringing that left him with a sense of unworthiness and not belonging, which metastasized into a wall of hopeless resentment and led to a rebellious, systemic journey of grapefruit-sour relationships, including a bogus military-based marriage, followed by a dysfunctional relationship in college, which led to a disastrous internship with the Portland Fire Department. He recognized early on his susceptibility to alcohol, and fell in love with a succession of women well-versed in the art of manipulation, relationships he respectfully describes as strange grapefruits. Having become involved in a biracial romantic entanglement, he relocated to the City of Seaside on the Pacific Northwest Oregon coast, working his way up to the position of supervisor of that city’s most popular beachfront hotel. However, he bites off more than he can chew as he is a convenient and continuous target, of police brutality, and endemic, rural-region bullying racism for eleven consecutive months. While attending the post-nuptial reception of a friend, he and the newlywed bride find themselves cornered by an invading gang of racist bikers with murder on their minds, which turns into an all-out melee in the host’s kitchen. After forcefully subduing the leader of the pack, he is elevated to instantaneous-hero status by the Seaside Police Department, who do a one-hundred-eighty degree turnabout regarding their treatment of a civilian they now hold in high regard. Despite this newly developed détente with the town heat, our plucky protagonist is still faced with another two-and-a-half years of constant death threats from the remainder of the notorious biker gang out of Portland, Oregon, who try to exact their racist revenge when they corner our hero once again. He escapes their clutches through a strange twist of fate, is arrested, charged with another infraction, goes to trial, and is found not guilty, twice, for acting in self-defense; Double jeopardy in a court of law, due to racism in the State of Oregon = Justified License To Kill in the eyes of the law.

Kavanagh’s Dilemma : A Novel
By Ron Kase
Like Leopold Bloom, James Joyce’s protagonist in the epic Ulysses, Kavanagh’s life is inconveniently influenced by his relationships with women. Bloom’s appointments and encounters on that single day in Dublin (June 16, 1904) is an unfortunate model for Kavanagh’s life in the 21st Century as a dynamic seeker of passion and intimacy with the women he finds desirable. Kavanagh and Bloom are Irish Jews, decedents of the members of small migrations from Eastern Europe that somehow found their way to Ireland, the most Catholic nation where they were welcome and lived peacefully and prospered.
Kavanagh’s odyssey to find enjoyment and pleasure, centers on his time with second wife Millicent the sophisticated literary agent and lawyer, the long affair with Bianca, and his deep feelings for the beautiful, elusive and mysterious Lydia who haunts his dreams. Kavanagh’s instant attraction to Ciara the lovely Irish physician, and the puzzling relationship with Mary Lucy, a university president and Catholic nun, confuse and confound him. Somehow Kavanagh has successfully maintained his equilibrium as a popular professor, bestselling author, activist, atheist and acceptable parent, but he worries, for how much longer? Kavanagh isn’t Everyman, although he’s more like us than we want to acknowledge.

“Stop Playing Games” and “Start Leading Them”!Finally, a game leader’s “dream” book that is thorough yet succinctly written that combines group games that actually have been played and that participants immensely enjoy. Here in one book are all the elements for effectively leading and participating in group games that are fun, that require little or moderate equipment, that range from high to low energy, and that can be played with players from all ages. The unique and consistent game template with a game on each page is easy to follow and results with leaders and players getting the most out of the activities. If you ever wanted to own just one book—one game book—this is it! The book is printed entirely in color and is available in a 8 ½ by 11 inch user friendly format. Inside you will find the one hundred of the very best group games ever played, along with key terminology, play statements, effective teaching techniques, methods to select teams, learning theory, guidelines for processing the games, tournament information, and a creative game matrix with nearly three million different combinations of games.
Playing games can be lots of fun. Leading games can be extremely rewarding. Every game in this book has been played and replayed, analyzed and tweaked, and written from the heart by an author who loves to have fun, laugh, and see others caught up in the enjoyment of play. Games are not just frivolous or about playing; people tend to play the way they live their lives. We can learn a lot about players when games are a “tool” to observe human behavior. Effective leading and leaders who ask the “good” questions can make the play experience more powerful. The “template” format of the book is unique and treats each game as a serious endeavor. Variations and safety considerations to each game create new and fun possibilities. Games can be used for many, many purposes. So why not be realistic and include tag, guessing, competitive, collective score, team building, problem solving, relay, and name games? Why not let the leaders and the people who buy the book decide how they will use the material? The appendices and all the support material make leading these games much easier and more fun for all involved.
A special feature for the physical education teacher is a ten day curriculum for middle school students which include lesson plans, teacher notes, handouts, homework assignments and a final test. Why not get “kids” moving in PE with group games?

About the author:
Well I’m a Navy veteran, and I now work in the aerospace manufacturing business. I’m an automation technician and I live near Seattle, WA. I started work on the Kingdoms and Empires series back in 2001 while I was still in high school. I wanted to make a crossover between traditional fairy tale fantasies and contemporary science fiction. I took my two favorite story books from the time (Hans Christian Andersen’s the Little Mermaid, and Tom Clancy’s Hunt for the Red October) and practices merging them. This was the genesis for what would eventually become Kingdoms and Empires.
Through the years, the Author and his wife of sixty years have enjoyed traveling to many parts of the world. They reside in the cattle ranching country of north central Texas. The Briney’s have five adult grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
