From the creator of the popular blog The Monsters Know What They’re Doing comes a compilation of villainous battle plans for Dungeon Masters. In the course of a Dungeons & Dragons game, a Dungeon Master has to make one decision after another in response to player behavior—and the better the players, the more unpredictable their behavior! It’s easy for even an experienced DM to get bogged down in on-the-spot decision-making or to let combat devolve into a boring slugfest, with enemies running directly at the player characters and biting, bashing, and slashing away. In The Monsters Know What They’re Doing, Keith Ammann lightens the DM’s burden by helping you understand your monsters’ abilities and develop battle plans before your fifth edition D&D game session begins. Just as soldiers don’t whip out their field manuals for the first time when they’re already under fire, a DM shouldn’t wait until the PCs have just encountered a dozen bullywugs to figure out how they advance, fight, and retreat. Easy to read and apply, The Monsters Know What They're Doing is essential reading for every DM.

The eyes of that species of extinct giants, whose bones fill the mounds of America, have gazed on Niagara, as ours do now. Abraham Lincoln 1848 Niagara Falls The surprising information found in this book, has been compiled together with many exciting pictures and much research. It is for those who understand that our history regarding facts, can only be obtained nowadays by tracing it ourselves! Everyone already knows about the dumbing down of societies by governments through media and other sources. Many historic realities such as the giants of old have been hidden from public spectators to keep the Darwin delusion alive. Mainstream media alongside scientists have created this Mafioso way of reporting only what keeps with the evolution agenda. Discoveries proclaiming something different are discarded by scientist and shows like Discovery on purpose, thwarting truth on the basis of their arrogant pride against man and God. But now at last the truth has been coming out, and their cover up has been surfacing. I hope this exciting book fascinates you, and ignites your curiosity for more!

Ken Follett’s magnificent historical epic begins as five interrelated families move through the momentous dramas of the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the struggle for women’s suffrage. A thirteen-year-old Welsh boy enters a man’s world in the mining pits. . . . An American law student rejected in love finds a surprising new career in Woodrow Wilson’s White House. . . . A housekeeper for the aristocratic Fitzherberts takes a fateful step above her station, while Lady Maud Fitzherbert herself crosses deep into forbidden territory when she falls in love with a German spy. . . . And two orphaned Russian brothers embark on radically different paths when their plan to emigrate to America falls afoul of war, conscription, and revolution. From the dirt and danger of a coal mine to the glittering chandeliers of a palace, from the corridors of power to the bedrooms of the mighty, Fall of Giants takes us into the inextricably entangled fates of five families—and into a century that we thought we knew, but that now will never seem the same again. . . .

When a Stanford post-doctoral molecular biologist plummets to his death over Devil's Slide at Half Moon Bay, Jon Hunt, his surviving roommate, doubts the official suicide story, recalling his roommate's radical personality changes after returning from a trip to England. Suspecting mind control and things darker, Jon journeys to the Negev, London, Cambridge, and New Forest, England, where he starts to see a terrible pattern. A cabal of scientific Mandarins, backed by a hidden elite, have been using breakthrough recombinant DNA technology to bring back into existence an ancient race of giants known as Nephilim. Jon learns that his deceased roommate provided the critical breakthrough for this to happen. Jon teams up with others from Stanford, Cambridge, and a local underground in New Forest, soon encountering levels of evil for which the present world could in no way prepare them.
