Heart Whispers
By Larrie E. Gale

A Novel of Love Across Boundaries 

“Please don’t leave like this,” Marc plead as Amala sat down, reached out, grabbed the handle and closed the door. He just stood there, hands at his sides, confused, staring at her through the windows. All too soon the train whistle sounded its harsh, shrill note and moments later Amala’s car began to move out of the London station. She never looked up, didn’t look at Marc as the train removed her from his sight. He feared she had also been removed from his life.

Raised half way around the world from each other, can Amala and Marc listen to their hearts, to the promptings God sends to them? Is it wise for them to permit a romantic relationship to develop? Can their differences become strengths through their understanding of, and commitment to, the values they share in the gospel of Jesus Christ? Can they become a couple, can they enjoy the rewards and growth that come from marriage, or is it foolish for them to even consider it? It is 2010—such things seem accepted—but should the approval of others even be considered?

Death's Academy by Michael Bast

Author Michael Bast’s debut novel, “Death’sAcademy,” was released January 14, 2014 and is available in bookstores and from online retailers.

A rite of passage for all young grim reapers is their attendance at Death’s Academy. It’s where they find out what kind of reaper they will be, a reaper for cats, hamsters or, if they’re lucky, for shorties like you and me.

Midnight Smith is a grim reaper and is about to take the entrance exam to get into Death’s Academy, but he’s got a problem. He sucks at exams. What he doesn't know is that the exam will be the least of his worries soon enough, because when the adult Grim Reapers and Guardian Angels go on their yearly retreat, the time will be ripe for an old enemy to strike. The only ones left to stop the attack are Midnight and his friends—and this is something he just can't fail at.

Praise for “Death’s Academy”:
“What a trip! Bast delivers a rip-roaring adventure through the afterlife and Midnight Smith is by far my favorite Hoodie. ‘Death's Academy is wicked fun!’” - Frank L. Cole, author of the Hashbrown Winters series.
