Chronicles of Chaos and Consonance : Kalybre The Eclectic
Chronicles of Chaos and Consonance
“Chronicles of Chaos and Consonance” is a book which is mainly about many things. As oxymoronic as that may sound, it is true. This book is about discovering one’s own identity where most would consider it to be lost. It is about triumph as well as the trails and trials that have led to it. It is, as the title proclaims, about maintaining consonance in the midst of chaos without neglecting those who would wish to cause chaos while things are in consonance.
The word choice and vocabulary may prove difficult for some but it is the author’s wish that any reader, whoever it may be, regardless of education level, writing or reading skill, would embrace the feel of the story and allow the details of the words to supplement the content. In any case, the writing style is undoubtedly unique, meticulously conjured and somewhat cryptic, yet such is the nature of poetry.

‘I can’t decide if you’re a genius or a lunatic.’ Chris Labonte, McIntyre & Douglas, Vancouver.
Herbie’s fall from the mother potato is nothing compared to the shock of hitting the cold steel, which knocks a bit of the starch out of him.

Will he be the smartest peel ever, or just another pretentious phoney?

Join Herbie as he careens towards the bright lights of a postmodern dump rimmed by the fire of celebrity television.

‘You’re a fantastic writer, but publishing this book in Canada will ruin your career before it even starts. Get on the bestseller lists first.’ Janie Yoon, literary agent’s assistant, Toronto.

Learning Every Day : David Wilson
Learning Every Day
David Wilson grew up in Arkansas but worked 27 years in education in Missouri, so his roots are deep in the heart of America. And it is the very heart of America–its people, its traditions, and its values–that has deeply influenced his life, and his writing. You will see that when you read Learning Every Day, his first book.
It is a book about examining life, personal growth, education, history, family, faith, and communication. And it sometimes uses analogies from the world of sports or entertainment.
Dr. Wilson has been a construction worker, a journalist, a teacher, a principal, and a communications director, and has learned a great deal from people at every stop along the way. He has a deep respect for faith and honest introspection and it shows in his book.
Learning Every Day is organized into small, manageable parts, because it is loosely based on written pieces from an insightful weekly newspaper column that the author has produced for more than 12 years.
It is one of those books that you can read from cover-to-cover, or you can simply read the selections that seem most interesting.
You should try it. As the back cover states, “It provides plenty to think about, and it just might help you gain a better perspective.”

Empire Under the Swans: Dusk : Antti Ruokonen
Empire Under the Swans: Dusk
Praised for his work on factual books, Antti Ruokonen has found new territory in which to dip his quill pen.
Era is a world in which two continents – Zori and Novi – are ruled by a great Empire centered in the capital isle of Aedieamus. Only the continent of Restos remains out of its grasp, surrounded by the untamed Great Sea with fleet wrecking storms to discourage even the bravest expedition.
Peace has reigned for over 500 years ever since the Age of War ended with a unified Empire rising from the ashes of destruction.
Swans have always held a hallowed status in Era and it was two giant swans which marked the first meeting of Erastos and Aurela on the final battlefield of the Age of War.
Their descendants have ruled the Empire from the Swan throne on Aedieamus with a firm but fair hand ever since.
But all is not well beneath the surface. Emperor Erastion IV has been gravely ill for many years and his once firm hand could no longer keep in check the corruption, greed and malice that lurks near all centers of power. His only daughter Princess Elean is the future of the Empire.
Erastion IV knows he is dying and entrusts his loyal knight Fer to save the Princess. However, Fer’s glorious past has long ago given way to a present of boredom and drunkenness. Now the fate of the Empire rests on the shoulders of a reprobate.

Jimmy Gets a Pet Passport : Margaret Scott
Jimmy Gets a Pet Passport
I was born in Scotland and studied Sport in the Community with Health Promotion at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. I worked with an American Summer Camp for children – Camp Blue Ridge which was where I met my American Family. In 2008 I moved to America full time and started working for the YMCA as a Program Assistant at the YMCA Camp Seagull and Camp Seafarer which was where Jimmy and I met. In 2015 we moved back to Scotland to help care for my terminally ill Mother which was when I started to document Jimmy’s actual life events.
Jimmy Gets a Pet Passport is the first children’s book in a series that follows the actual life events of Jimmy the Dalmatian Therapy Dog who was born in the USA with lots of brothers and sisters and when she was 8 weeks old she moved to North Carolina to meet her new Mummy who was born in Scotland.
Jimmy loved life at the Summer Camp where her new Mummy worked and her favourite thing to do was play with her other spotted friends in the warm sunshine. One day Jimmy’s Mummy picked her up from the play pen and held her very tightly because it was time for Jimmy and her Mummy to move back to Scotland to meet Jimmy’s Scottish Family and this made Jimmy anxious because she started to wonder what her new family would look like, would they have spots like her and would they like her.
This also meant that Jimmy needed to go to the Vet to get a check-up so that she could get a Pet Passport so that she could go on the aeroplane with her Mummy and Jimmy did not like going to the Vet. Jimmy had to have faith that everything would be ok even though she had to leave the home she grew up in and her other spotted friends.
