Unicorn Bait by S.A. Hunter

Naomi accidentally goes to another planet thanks to a unicorn horn. Unfortunately, the horn doesn't come with her. She doesn't know how to get home, but that's not her biggest problem. That would be her brand new husband, and he's kind of scary. Her only hope is a crazy witch who knows something about catching unicorns. Which would be fine and dandy except, it's the crazy witch who introduced her to her husband. And then RAN OFF. She's going to get her for that.

Unicorn Bait is a fun romp through a magical world filled with adventure, humor, and a little naughtiness.

Einstein's Shutter by Vincent Yanez

“I circled the shutter. I was trying to visualize the most efficient way to pick it up and carry it away, appearing nonchalant all the while, as if shutter-carting were a normal, natural, everyday kind of thing. Then I heard a noise. To my left, twenty feet away, the neighbor had come out of his house and was standing on his porch. He was wearing a worn-down peach-colored robe and was holding, what I could only assume, was a lukewarm cup of instant coffee.

He was facing Einstein’s house, facing me, while I eyed my wooden bounty. I did a slow orbit around the shutter, like a vulture does over a piece of road kill, making sure no other vehicles would be barreling down the road so he can enjoy his newfound dinner. I was intent on getting this shutter. This was my find, my artifact, my road kill!

The neighbor watched me. I turned to him and nodded, he nodded back. I stood still. He remained where he was. Hanna watched from the sidewalk. The minutes passed by.
Evening slowly arrived. The neighbor sipped from his mug. The wind picked up and I remained too stubborn to leave, too fearful to bend down and grab the shutter, too stupid to think of anything else. Hanna cleared her throat and finally, reluctantly, I admitted defeat and joined her on the sidewalk.

It was a Sunday, in August, 2001. I never really thought about Einstein’s shutter after that day.

A month later the Twin Towers fell, eight months after that Ben died and slowly my life began to unravel.

I know it’s an idiot notion to think that something as unimportant as my stealing Einstein’s shutter, committing property theft, has some sort of profound effect on how the world works. What it did make me realize though, is that day, that afternoon of contemplating taking Einstein’s shutter, signified the last thing I could remember being both upsetting and unimportant. It had made me think that life was somehow unfair, but in a subtle and somehow frivolous way. The next few years showed me what true humility and pain really was.”

Einstein’s Shutter is a whirlwind journey into a decade of one man’s life, in New York City, during what turns out to be one of the most horrific times in U.S. History. It’s also a story about redemption, reincarnation and ultimately it is a story of the power of the human spirit in a man, and a city, finding the strength they need to rise again after the attack on 9/11.
Einstein’s Shutter is also a comedy, a romance novel and ultimately a memoir of one life, amongst millions, in the greatest city in the world.

Independence Day, Book One: The Beginnings by Bex Aaron

“Something is wrong with this town…”

On the surface, Haven Park seemed to be the perfect picture of Americana. Nestled in the heart of Wyoming, its 517 residents were close knit, hard working and God fearing people. The city had never known major scandal, and the last violent crime committed was over ten years ago. Normal, right and honorable were upheld and all seemed to be quite harmonious…until the night of July 4, 1966, when the walls came closing in and the secrets could not be kept any longer.

It started with a murder. Carol Mathison, a lifelong resident and the only daughter of retired police chief Stanley Rogers, was found strangled in the park on the morning of July 5, leaving the community stunned. By all accounts, Carol was vibrant, well liked, outgoing and cheerful – making her murder all the more senseless. However, as the days drug by, more and more began to be revealed about Carol’s darker side…and the many, many people who might have wanted her dead.

The killer is closer than they know…

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Enhanced Version by Matthew Henry

The Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible brings exceptional depth to familiar Biblical passages. Henry astutely presents the historical and cultural background for each book of the Bible, always beginning with a brief summary of the book's setting and larger purpose. This work is a one-volume abridgement of Henry's greatest work, so the text is less cumbersome than that of the original publication; yet it might still require a little patience from the reader. Nevertheless, using this commentary is well worth the effort, and those who read its contents will not be disappointed. The Concise Commentary is an exciting new way to study the Bible that will be cherished by all.

Emmalon Davis
CCEL Staff Writer
