The land of Tereden, treacherous even for those with the stout spirit to confront it, is home to a desperate world's dreams and fears. The mystic island of Tereden has experienced more war than peace for as long as anyone can remember. A battleground for the foreign canine and feline peoples of Everlet and Hohleran, Tereden is also home to an indigenous race of lizards that remains neutral in the ancient conflict-but hardly dormant. The ever-changing tides of war soon engulf Rhomand, a young canine officer who finds himself engaged in battle deep in enemy territory, fighting both for his own life and that of his childhood friend, Ayana. As the war surrounding Rhomand rages, a threat surfaces that knows no mercy and respects no race. It attracts the attention of Veia, a powerful mage and keeper of arcane arts. The foreboding signs, stretching from common battlefields to the secluded lizard cities, lead to an undertaking that envelops not only Veia and her companions, but also an unsuspecting Rhomand and Ayana. Brimming with mystery and danger, Heart of Courage is a timeless tale of strength and courage in the midst of war, when loyalties must withstand the most difficult test of all.

Kirby's latest work is at once the caravan, the carnival, and the crowd merging together to form a wondrous collection. Much like a traveling circus, Kirby's poems are equally defined by their transient nature and by their destination. In "Talking about Movies with Jesus" earnest conversations with cultural icons from Little Richard to Jesus reveal to the poet, as a character in his own story, that art, whether a song or poem or scripture, is all we here on earth know of heaven and all we need to know.

I was thinking about when I depart this here good earth how do I want to go out, in a casket or in an urn, and then it hit me, in a can of chock full of nuts, you know the heavenly coffee tin. I hear its the best money can buy. Yep save my family the added expense of an expensive box, that I cant take with me no how, so thats my last request, maybe auction it off to the highest bidder. PT Barnum once said a sucker is born every minute, hahahaha I got a feeling theyll be one or two takers, hahahaha Jimmy Blood, Sweat & Tears - And When I Die The Cyber Comedy section of the book is an international camaraderie between a man and a woman. No this is not a romance story, nor a spy thriller; but do hold on to your hats just the same cos they will pick your pockets and you will want to give them all you have just to keep them telling you more and more. Some think they are the reincarnation of Will & Grace, Ned & Stacey, Mork & Mindy, Sonny & Cher, Stiller & Meara, Lucy and Ricky, or Gracie and Allen but they sure know how to make you laugh without a script. I guarantee one thing if nothing else, you will laugh and then some but dont take my word, read on!!!
