From USA Today-bestselling author Sherry Thomas comes this sublime love story set in the far future, and perhaps a different universe altogether… On the remote planet of Pax Cara lies the greatest secret of the universe. Once every generation, the inhabitants must offer up an exceptional young person—the Chosen One--who sacrifices his or her own life for the sake of that secret, and the planet itself. But Vitalis, the current Chosen One, is desperate to break free of the yoke of destiny. An unexpected invitation to an aristocratic courtship summit seems to be the perfect opportunity for her escape. As soon as she arrives, however, she receives a proposal of marriage from the most eligible prince in existence. Eleian of Terra Illustrata can have any woman he wants. Why has he set his sight on Vitalis, who, unless she manages to flee, will die in sixteen standard days? Is it as simple as he declares, “To know you as I’ve always wanted to, but never had the chance?” Or is he hiding an ulterior motive, one that could put her plans, her life, and her heart in jeopardy? And can Vitalis truly say no to the man she has secretly loved all her life? This is a novella of 32,000 words.

Form is emptiness; emptiness is form. This is the bold and intriguing assertion of the Heart Sutra, a text of seminal importance to the Buddhist tradition made even more fascinating by its deep resonance with the cutting edges of quantum physics and cognitive science. In spare and approachable language, The Heart of the Universe deftly explores this gem of world religious literature from a variety of perspectives--historical, spiritual, linguistic, and scientific--each serving to interdependently illuminate the other.

*INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARD * *AWARD WINNING FINALIST* Based on a lifetime of research into shamanism, visionary states, the evolution of written communication and the roots of storytelling, award-winning author, editor, and shamanic explorer Matthew J. Pallamary takes those with open minds courageous enough to question the illusions that most of us think of as real on an expansive journey that pierces the veil of reality itself. Pallamary's in-depth analysis of human perception, shamanism, visionary states, cognitive neuroscience, plant and animal consciousness, and sacred geometry, as well as the prehistoric roots of our deepest cultural myths not only lay bare the illusory roots of what we have built our failing society on, it provides a detailed map that points the way through the non-sense hall of mirrors that we currently find ourselves trapped in. The Center Of The Universe Is Right Between Your Eyes, But Home Is Where the Heart Is, is Pallamary's thirteenth book, and in it he weaves a convincing tapestry that alternates threads of ancient philosophies and preserved indigenous wisdom with recent discoveries in quantum physics, psychology, and the timeless, persistent archetypes of our subconscious.

The Heart of the Jedi Darth Vader and the Emperor are no more. The Alliance has officially become the New Republic. As Han Solo, Princess Leia, and the new Chief-of-State Mon Mothma emerge triumphant against the diminishing Empire, the Imperial Remnant fights on until the long-silent Imperial Senate rises up to call for peace. But not everyone wants peace, and High Admiral Tharkus has made plans to ensure the Empire will reemerge under his rule. At his side stands the mysterious Dioskouroi, beings of rare and deadly powers! For Luke Skywalker, exhausted from years of fighting, the time has come to depart upon a journey of discovery, a journey that will lead him to a secret long ago hidden by Obi-Wan Kenobi. ◆◆◆ The Heart of the Jedi, Kenneth C. Flint''s lost Star Wars novel, commissioned and approved by Lucasfilm, and set to be released in 1993, disappeared without a trace. For many years fans wondered what became of the book and why it was never published, and so it was chalked up to yet another tragic "lostworlds" story that no one would ever get to read or enjoy... or so we thought! Kenneth C. Flint''s complete novel The Heart of the Jedi has at last been unearthed! Published on StarWarsTimeline.net, it has been edited to fit into the existing Expanded Universe, taking place a short time after The Truce at Bakura and the end of issue #107 of the Marvel series, but before the X-Wing comic-book series. Reprinted here in paperback for the first time, this is a non-profit listing for private collectors only. The downloadable PDF is freely available here: http://www.starwarstimeline.net/The%20Heart%20of%20the%20Jedi.htm Find other books by Kenneth Flint at: http://www.amazon.com/Kenneth-C.-Flint/e/B001HPFIWC *** Note: I''d like to clear a few things up. This is an unofficial fan printing of an unofficial fan story. IE: Bootleg Fanfiction. Disney owns Star Wars©, not The Heart of the Jedi. I am not making money off this venture. This is being printed AT COST only. The price paid is merely to Amazon for printing charges. There was a fan printing briefly available in 2015. I, and most others, missed that one. Some time ago, I decided I wanted a copy of "The Heart of the Jedi" for my bookshelf. I downloaded the PDF, formatted it for paperback, sized it so it would fit in with other MMPs, and did some Photoshop work for a Batam-era appropriate cover. I put it on Amazon, ordered my copy, and was done. Then, quite frankly, I forgot about it. The increase in copies sold has lead to a few rumors. I''d like to address some of them: The increase in copies sold has lead to a few rumors. I''d like to address some of them: I am not Ken Flint. I am not Joe Bongiorno. I am not affiliated with Disney. This book is not outselling Disney Star Wars. The way the Amazon Ranking algorithm works is based on sales per hour, not lifetime sales. I am not Timothy Zahn. I know him. He is an amazing mentor and an inspiration to me. I would never try and sabotage his work or steal his thunder. Everyone go buy Thrawn. I want to say everyone go buy MY book! But at this point, I think anonymity is safer than infamy. EU fans, stop trying to stick a thumb in Disney''s eye. We''re not going to change anything. Disney fans, just ignore the EU fans and let them have their silly little book. Stop tattling to Disney. Finally, I would like to publicly apologize to Ken for any appearance that I might be stealing his work. That was not the intent. --A Star Wars Fan

"With this, the Sage then guides the Seeker into a powerful new narrative - one that translates the scientific facts of the Universe into a soulful story of creation that is reminiscent of humanity's stories of the ages. The two explore the unfolding of the Universe, from the Beginning of All Beginnings, to the emergence of Earth and human beings, all the way to the 'Great Transformation' brought on by the global crises that we now face. Through these dialogues, the Seeker finds his path in the midst of the turbulence of our times. He learns how this evolutionary story can inform us all as we face the crises of the Great Transformation - and why these crises just might be the best thing that ever happened to humanity."--Page 4 of cover
