Echo of a Nightmare by Gordon Froede ISBN 0-595-23081-4 Format: Paperback Our Price: $25.95 |
In the waning days of the Third Reich
Hitler,
prodded by his deputies Bormann and Himmler, sired two illegitimate
children.
One was to be his successor. The other one was a back-up in case
something
should happen to the heir-apparent. The boys grew up separated from
each
other, without knowledge of one another; one in East Berlin, the other
in
the Western Sector. Only one of the boys was willing to continue in the
footsteps
of his biological father and become the leader of the Fourth Reich, but
his half-brother, aided by the forces of democracy, had other plans for
him.

Eclectic Libbyland by Francis DiPietro ISBN 0-595-26773-4 Format: Paperback Our Price: $14.95 |
Is he a delusional coward, or the
remnant of an exiled visionary? At times, Walton Friendly can seem like
any number of things; from an obsessive-compulsive Mormon who stalks an
astonishing woman named Libby Hendricks (and keeps notes on her
activities in the margins of his Mormon Bible), to an artist vanquished
from the core of his beliefs, and forced to adopt drugs and
hallucination as his reality. He wanders through a dreamscape of
emotions, and enlists on his quest to gain Libby’s affections the most
unlikely of helpers: William “Crazy Bill” Capresci, self-proclaimed
kingpin of the subway derelicts, yet once an honest man. Walton and
Bill connect on a level which sees them sharing their contempt for
commercialized society, and they are each radically revolting (pun
intended).

Me,” and a little bit of “Trainspotting.” There are a few tears, a lot
of laughs and some of the most colorful people the South has to offer.
