Recueil de nouvelles d'anticipation/science-fiction.On rencontre parfois d'étranges visiteurs. Parfois ils font peur, et parfois ils séduisent. Ils étonnent en tout cas par leur allure, leurs habitudes, ce qu'ils font deviner des mondes d'où ils arrivent, des civilisations d'ailleurs, d'hier, ou de nulle part. Christian Poslaniec en a réunis ici plusieurs, porteurs de mystères et de rêves, et de questions. A travers les histoires de Gérard Klein, de Bill Brown, de Robert Sheckley, de Julia Verlanger ou d'Erik Frank Russell, ou du plus ancien Théophile Gautier, on rit, on s'inquiète, on pousse des portes inattendues.

This book chronicles the story of my life. From the two foster homes in which I lived to the family I would one day call my own. It is written with complete understanding that faith and belief in God cannot be ignored. I am living proof of this fact. Through my written work He guides every stroke of my pen. Through these words I give him the Glory and the Praise. I therefore thank Him for the ability to deliver this message of hope through me to all of you. It is my wish that you understand he lives in each and every one of us. Let us not forget that nothing given to us by mankind or bestowed upon us by mankind can ever begin to equal or eclipse that which God has blessed us with.Let us not forget that at one point in time none of us even existed. In life we are on a limited journey, and one day we will cease to exist. Mortal death is not the end, but the transition to the beginning of the rest of our spiritual lives. Stop for a moment and excise all external factors in your life and just be still and calm. Let the peace you feel regenerate your spirit. In other words, be still and know that God is God through whom all things are possible, if you truly believe
Catastrophe at Calico

While a parent guide on a field trip for my daughter's fifth grade class I had a few moments to chat and daydream with Tiffany, my daughter and two of her friends, J.J. and Kelley. The idea for a story came from that time of imagination. They spoke of the possible mystery in the old ghost town which was the seed to the story combining both current and historical Calico. The need for a little Si-Fi was to connect the two moments across time. The dedication for this book belongs to those three, who gave me a most memorable day at Calico Ghost Town and the following thirteen years of putting it all together.
The Headless Angel

"The Headless Angel is a poetry collection divided into two sections, "The Truest Myth," and "What the Soul Ate." Bill Brown wrote these poems in his mid-sixties to explore aging, and surviving in this "often dark world" by paying attention to moments, solitude and the Creative Spirit of our natural world. Living in the Milky Way with over 300 billion stars, an un-understandable figure, is a true gift beyond our knowing. The poems are grouped seasonally, many are love poems to life, his wife, Suzanne, and the precious struggle to live each day at a time. Other poems reach back into his life's journey with new visions. Come, take this journey with him"--

"Sleepless Nights" was written from those thoughts we keep hidden deep within our souls, those thoughts we never share, but keep to ourselves. From its inception, "Sleepless Nights" has been a continued awakening of a man's spirit, seeing life through deeply seated feelings, which I turn into words. Each thought, each emotion is something very special to be shared with others. I won't lie and tell you my path didn't come with hardships. And when the lion roared I stopped long enough to collect my thoughts. And later I would write them for you as I did with, "I Should Have Screamed". My journey is not mine alone, each of us walk a similar path with all its joys and sorrows. I'm very proud of this endeavor, for it's my best poetical work to date. And I'm equally proud that I was able to share a few moments writing with my nephew and friend, Christopher Appel. Many of you may know him from my poems, "Chris" and "The Special People". "sleepless Nights", is a continuation of my thoughts from "The World Outside My Window". Two long years in the making, reaching the bottom and fighting back to finish another chapter in this thing we call life. Dan Hanosh Dreams Are Yours To Share
