A New Superhero is Born! There''s a new champion among The Emperor’s Swashbuckling comrades, from the amazing Emperorverse casebooks by Charles Lee Jackson, II. Joining the pantheon is a towering colossus of Justice, a robot operated by a teenage boy, by radio control. With the help of his scientist father and detective uncle, young Johnny London uses complex radio-controlled computers to drive a powerful machine into the field, to enter the fray at the controls of… The Titan! Another hero chronicled in “The Emperor’s Secret Files”. Johnny London and his uncle Dick work to rescue the boy’s father from the clutches of the evil international spy Alain Sarnov, who’s kidnapped the scientist to sell to foreign agents. To the rescue, the Londons’ secret weapon, the Titan, a remotely controlled robot, a radio-operated puppet that’s “Got No Strings” When Thomas London’s attention is diverted by a submarine mystery, and with the disappearance of the investigating scientists, he sends the Titan to take charge. But when the lab loses contact with the Titan, Thomas, Dick, and Johnny must work quickly to save not only the explorers but the robot itself, lost when “Down Went McGinty” A new super-crook appears, a speed-demon who robs banks and creates mayhem in seconds and escapes in a flash. And when he attacks Professor London’s colleague Manfred Bailey, the Titan, though handicapped by mysterious interference, joins the opposition to a criminal who moves like a “Bat Out of Hell” Johnny London and his girlfriend Peggy have volunteered as counselors at a summer camp for inner-city kids. But some of the big kids are bullying the little guys, and Johnny must find a way to save the day without the Titan becoming a bully himself, some way to show that threats and violence don’t make a “Champion of the Salamanders”

“High adventure mixing every cool paperback, comic, late night TV treasure, 1960s and ’70s spy adventure, and the breakneck pace and scale of the great Republic serials.” —Steve Latshaw Another Charles Lee Jackson Swashbuckling super heroine debuts in four terrific adventures – and you can bet it won’t be long before she gets caught up in The Emperor’s inner circle. When archæologist Elizabeth Owen discovers an ancient artifact that imbues her with the abilities of the Olympian gods, she finds that with those powers comes an awesome responsibility. For now she will be the protector of Mankind, the inheritor of mighty powers. She will be The Avenger of Olympus. Don''t miss this wild and wooly feminist revision of the classic Captain Marvel origin story. Trapped in a lost Greek temple, Betty Owen finds an artifact and scroll that promise great powers – powers she’ll need to save not just herself but her friends as well, members of an archæological expedition to eastern Turkey who have been captured by angry villagers. Only if Dr. Owen can decipher the ancient text will she be able to accept “A Gift from the Gods”. Bound up by undiplomatic Red Tape in Ankara, Dr. Owen and her team-mates already have enough trouble when two of them are accused of passing counterfeit currency. And with Continent-Eight and the Diabolical Dr. Double X on hand, it’ll be more than hard to “Follow the Money”. Back in the US on a lecture tour, Dr. Owen stumbles into a mystery – giant brutes are attacking local college students. Nemesis will have to look into this! But what she doesn’t know is that there is already a hero on the scene – Alison Carlsonn, training to be Shooting Star, is also investigating “Barton’s Bruisers”. In Los Angeles angling for a new job, Betty Owen finds herself caught between fires when the evil Jade Dragon strikes again, this time commanding a super-powered Dr. Yalta. But then another Swashbuckler arrives, and Nemesis finds herself locked in battle with the blonde bombshell, even though the big fight is “Solara Versus Captain Yalta”. Another thrilling entry from The Emperor''s Secret Files.

This is a multi-view book in which representatives of differing viewpoints make a positive statement of their case, followed by responses from the others, and concluding with a rebuttal by the original author. The topic at hand in this book is the identity of Jesus (also known as Christology). What is the meaning of Jesus''s identity as "the Son of God"? Charles Lee Irons argues that the title "Son of God" denotes his ontological deity from a Trinitarian perspective. Danny Andre Dixon and Dustin R. Smith challenge this view from two different non-Trinitarian viewpoints. Smith argues that Jesus is the authentically human Son of God, the Davidic Messiah, who did not possess a literal preexistence prior to his virgin birth. Dixon argues that Jesus is God''s preexistent Son in the sense that God gave him life or existence at some undefined point prior to creation. The authors engage the topic from the perspective that reverences the authority and inspiration of Scripture as the final arbiter of this debate. The literature of early Judaism is also engaged in order to try to understand the extent to which the New Testament''s Christology may have been influenced by or operated within the context of Jewish conceptions of divine secondary beings as agents of God.

Love Circles is a riveting account of sexual revenge and betrayal played out over twenty-five years in the lives of three men, friends who have managed to stay friends, and are now happily married. They meet at a newly built jazz club to reminisce on all the bad relationships they have had over the years, times when they were living in a vicious love circle of life. Yet they still remained loyal to each other, despite all the other friends who betrayed them over the decades. The three have triumphed over all obstacles by learning that God is the only one who really gets revenge. The story follows Lenny, Richard, and Nathan as they learn things the hard way when their lives were put in danger. Will they prevail?

This Graphic Novel examines “gang life.” It depicts the troubled relationships between man and community, man and God, and man within himself. Through this tale we see struggles between negative and positive choices. It is this external process, seeing through others’ eyes, that we too can deal openly and honestly with our fears, suspicions and prejudices. It is the tragic story of Mad City Posse (MCP). It is a look at the gang life of drugs, violence and justice, a world tainted with anger and hate. When Quentin Holmes (aka Q) the brother of founding member, Oscar Holmes of the gang is murdered, MCP must either choose to seek revenge or peace. MCP decisions have life-altering repercussions.

My testimony of things I have seen God do in my life and others also.

THE LORD OF HOST COMMANDS US to tell of the MIS-USE OF GOD''S WORD! Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith. Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD. Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.

In the heady days of the rush to arms in 1861, comparatively few Southern men volunteered for service in the artillery: most preferred the easily accessible glory of the infantry or cavalry. Yet those that did quickly earned the respect of their fellow soldiers, and a reputation for being able to pull through deeper mud, ford deeper springs, shoot faster, swear louder ... than any other class of men in the service. Given that field artillery was invariably deployed in front of the troops that it was supporting, the artillerymen were exposed to a high level of enemy fire, and losses were significant. This title guides the reader through the life and experiences of the Confederate cannoneer - where he came from; how he trained and lived; how he dressed, ate and was equipped; and how he fought.

If you liked "The Three Mesquiteers," "The Range Riders," and other classic Western B-movies, you will love this homage from the amazing imagination of Charles Lee Jackson II. Some of the roaring in the Roaring Twenties was from six-guns! At the end of WWI, three soldiers set out to bring law and order to still-untamed reaches of the West. US Marshal Kit Cassiday, his singing sidekick Slim Rafferty, and their comical partner, Alibi Jones, earn a reputation for protecting the innocent and fighting villains—whether those villains break the law or hide behind it. Dubbed "The Trail Riders" and mounted on their faithful steeds, Gent, Duster, and Unk, these three out-ride, out-shoot, and out-think train robbers, cattle rustlers, claim jumpers, and other lawbreakers. Their rootin’-tootin’, rip-snortin’, gun-slingin’ adventures begin in "The Secret of Cibola," when Kit and Slim come to the aid of their old pal Alibi, who''s been accused of robbery and murder. Next Slim and Alibi land in plenty of trouble when an entire train is stolen right out from under them—but Kit helps uncover the astounding how and why as they seek the “Train to Los Padres”. Then the trio investigates spooky doings when a herd of cattle vanishes into thin air, seemingly the loot of “Phantom Rustlers”. Finally, when the mail doesn''t go through, and the US Mail driver is missing, the boys become "Cowboy Couriers", only to be drawn into a deadly trap by a very pretty young woman… Look for exciting adventures set in Charles Lee Jackson II''s pulp and comic book inspired "Emperorverse," which has been compared to Lester Dent''s over-the-top, widely beloved Doc Savage adventures. And don''t miss this new pulp western novel, featuring Kit Cassiday.

Those gun-slingin’, hard-ridin’, two-fisted lawmen of the prairie – the Trail Riders – are back, in four exciting adventures straight from the pen of Charles Lee Jackson, II, author of THE SKY TIGER and THUNDER BIRD. Join Federal Marshal Kit Cassiday and pals Slim Rafferty, and Alibi Jones as they fight for justice in the last days of the West, pitting six-guns and horses against Tommy guns and gas-buggies. Returning to Mojave after a long absence, the Trail Riders find their home has fallen to a new crop of crooks, hiding behind the very law the boys have sworn to uphold. And when they arrest and imprison the leader of the gang, his henchmen don’t take it lying down, forcing our heroes into a “Jailhouse Siege”. With the crooked city officials in jail, the marshals assume the case is closed. But when a suspicious lawyer arrives and breaks one of the owlhoots out of jail and flees, Kit, Slim, and Alibi find they’ve only scratched the surface of a case that requires them to become “Untouchables of the West”. Things just aren’t going well in Mojave any more, and when Kit and Slim try to investigate shady doin’s at the bank, they find themselves in the City Jail, accused of murder, and pointed straight at them is “The Finger of Suspicion”. A mercy train run taking a sick millionaire east for treatment becomes a battleground for Slim Rafferty, who must capture a ruthless gangster fleeing Los Angeles. And without Kit or Alibi on hand, he’ll have a desperate fight on his hands before he reaches “The End of The Line”.
