Thom Kincannon has reached the final day of closing out the contents of his late father's house. But an unexpected find of a trunk in the attic brings a previously unknown manuscript to light. Despite working against a deadline, Thom is drawn into the world created by the author of the writing - one of physical and psychological conflict. The year is 1969; the backdrop is the dramatic societal changes of the decade; and the stages are the professional wrestling arenas where men and women put on exhibitions of strength, athletic prowess and acts of violence. MARKS is the tale of the journeys of Clinton Long, Ivy League graduate and rebel against authority who grapples by day with questions of philosophy and ethics, and by night with men in tights under stage lights. Burned out at the age of 30, he seeks one last hurrah, one last huge payday before he escapes the theatrical world of dramatized fighting forever. But an adversary has crossed the line into actual violence, while a dark secret he has kept hidden may have been uncovered. With these forces stacked against him, his life and those of others may be on the line unless he can find a path of escape while on the biggest stage of his career. MARKS bridges major cultural phenomena of the 1960's - sex, drugs, racial unrest - with the arcane world behind the scenes of professional wrestling; a dimension kept hidden by its practitioners of that era with a fanatic determination to maintain the veneer of realism. Through the eyes of the narrator in this "story-within-a-story", readers take a journey behind the curtains and view the often rowdy, raucous and passionate lives of the men and women who entertained generations of true believers.

Since joining the NHL in 1967, the LA Kings have been a unique franchise from both appearance and geographical standpoints.Initially owned by Canadian business magnate Jack Kent Cooke, the LA Kings were arguably the most conspicuous on the NHL's post-expansion era, sporting forum-blue-and-gold jerseys while playing out of the Fabulous Forum in Inglewood.Their first coach was Hall-of-Famer Red Kelly while their first goaltender was another Hall-of-Famer Terry Sawchuk. Yet, despite their lineage, the Kings had trouble finding success early on. When they did, though, they began to gain traction, mostly thanks to stars -- and future Hall-of-Famers Rogie Vachon and Marcel Dionne.It wasn't until 1988, though, when, thanks to the acquisition of Wayne Gretzky, the Kings became the hottest ticket in Los Angeles, opening the floodgates for new generations of fans.After years of struggling, however, the Kings found their way, winning the Stanley Cup in 2012 and 2014."Royal Reflections: Tales from the Throne of Tinseltown" is a collection of interviews from over 60 former Kings players -- and more -- from different eras in franchise history, discussing their respective tenures with the club and how they enjoyed the City of Angels away from the rink.This book is also co-authored by the Kings' longtime TV sportscaster Bob Miller, who shares a series of great stories about his career with the franchise.This is a must-read for any hockey fan, Kings or not.

John was highly respected in the early years of Christianity. He authored one of the Gospels that detailed the life of Jesus. He also wrote three letters to early churches, as well as the apocalyptic work in scripture, The Book of the Revelations.John writes in the last of his Gospel, "And there are also many other things which Jesus did, which, if they were written in detail, I suppose that even the world itself would not contain the books that would be written."At the time of Jesus Christ's death, his followers were traumatically affected. Many had hoped that He was the promised Messiah, the Savior, the coming King of Israel, and the Chosen One. Upon His death, all hope was gone.John, an early disciple of Jesus, was an eyewitness for many miracles and healings, as well as many of the teaching venues where Jesus was said to "teach as one having authority." He was also one of the first to meet the resurrected Christ."40 Days Between", is a daily account of the interactions between Jesus and those who were encouraged with hope and optimism during his post-resurrection.

A memoir of growing up in mob-run Sin City from a casino heir-turned-governor who's seen two sides of every coin When Bob Miller arrived in Las Vegas as a boy, it was a small, dusty city, a far cry from the glamorous, exciting place it is today. Driving the family car was his father Ross Miller, a tough guy-though a good family man-who had operated on both sides of the law on some of the meaner streets of industrial Chicago.The Miller family was as close and as warm as "Ozzie and Harriet," as long as you knew that Ozzie was a bookmaker and a business acquaintance of some very dubious criminal types.As Bob grew up, so did Vegas, now a "town" of some two million. Ross Miller became a respectable businessman and partner in a major casino, though he was still capable of settling a score with his fists.And Bob went on to law school, entering law enforcement and eventually becoming a popular governor of Nevada, holding office longer than anybody in the state's history. And the Miller family's legacy continues. Bob's own son is presently serving as Secretary of State.A warm family memoir, the story of a city heir, with just a little bit of The Godfather and Casino thrown in for spice, Son of a Gambling Man is a unique and thoroughly memorable story.
