Book excerpt: My Final Ride is the true-life story of Chuck Christensen's epic mule-back Canada-to-Mexico journey while battling stage-three bone marrow cancer/multiple myeloma. Given eighteen months to three years to live and told he'll never ride again, Chuck crawls back on his mule and, with tears streaming down his face, vows to trek as far as he can. Learning of the Great Western Trail, which eventually is to stretch from Canada to Mexico, he excitedly sends letters, makes phone calls, collects maps, and sets out on his daring ride. Along the way he faces mud bogs, giardia, broken bones, and deep discouragement; more than once he worries he'll have to put an animal down. With water and food scarce, his mules begin to eat cowpies; his horse, however, refuses, and begins to starve. Ultimately, Chuck's success depends on his fixed determination to never give up.

Caleb O'Toole could hear his mother's last words as clearly as if she was sitting right next to him. He promised her he'd keep his sisters safe. But safety is over a thousand miles away in the rugged Bitteroot Mountains-past dust-choked deserts and thorny tumbleweeds and as sun so hot, it's hard to breathe. Tornadoes and hungry wolves wait for them on the path ahead. But with the infamous Blackstone Gang hot on their trail, Caleb has no choice but to keep going. There's no telling how far the gang will go to keep their latest murder a secret. And Caleb is the number one witness to their crime. Caleb O'Toole can hear his mother's last words: "I need you to be strong." and he can't let her down.

Book excerpt: THE FINAL ADVENTURE IN THE PHENOMENAL SERIES After an incredible 35-year run, the story of Rod Gallowglass - the Warlock in Spite of Himself - comes to its fantastic finale in the weird and wonderful world of Gramarye, simultaneously wrapping up the Warlock, Warlock’s Heirs, and Rogue Wizard series. When Gwendolyn - the witch-wife of Rod Gallowglass, the Lord High Warlock of Gramarye - suddenly dies, she leaves behind a husband dangerously unhinged by grief and a land without a Protector. So it's the worst time for the Gallowglass’s ancient enemies - Durer and the Mocker - to return for one last bid to overthrow the monarchs of Gramarye and seize power. Stirring up a peasant revolt, manipulating politics to trigger a civil war between the Crown and the Lords, all while orchestrating a monster invasion and attempting to trying to turn the Gallowglass children against each other, Gramarye may face its greatest challenge yet.

Book excerpt: When Maury Davis, a pastor in Nashville, Tennessee, faced a fatal cancer diagnosis with less than two years to live, embarked on the greatest American road trip, a 30 day motorcycle ride around the borders of the United States. During the trip, he wrote daily devotions for life-changing principles essential for his youngest son to thrive in a world without his father. His last opportunity, this legacy wasn't about the end of things, but the beginning. In this devotional, Maury Davis takes readers on the ride of a lifetime, and, while allowing them to experience every mom-and-pop meal along the way, offers a legacy of hard-won wisdom.
