R.F. Delderfield is a born storyteller.” — Sunday Mirror
The beloved classic saga from master author R. F. Delderfield, subject of a landmark BBC miniseries.
To Serve Them All My Days is the moving saga of David Powlett-Jones, who returns from World War I injured and shell-shocked. He is hired to teach history at Bamfylde School, where he rejects the formal curriculum and teaches the causes and consequences of the Great War.
Eventually David earns the respect of his students and many of his fellow teachers, against the backdrop of a country struggling to redefine itself. As David falls in love and finds himself on track to possibly take on the headmaster role, he must search to find the strength to hold true to his beliefs as the specter of another great war looms.
To Serve Them All My Days is a brilliant picture of England between the World Wars, as the country comes to terms with the horrors of the Great War and the new forces reshaping the British government and society.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
“I sometimes still wake up in the morning and look forward to reading more about P.J. and Bamfylde.”
“From the stationmaster on the first page to the last boy on the last page, these characters all have a very human aspect that connects to you immediately.”
“This book should be in everyone’s library.”
“This is an ennobling book…it showed a person wounded in body and spirit who found that concentrating on the details of teaching the schoolboys under his care was, in a sense, a healing meditation.”
“…just the book for a cold rainy day…with a hot cup of tea and a scone.”
“Mr. Delderfield’s manner is easy, modest, heartwarming.”
Evening Standard
“He built an imposing artistic social history that promises to join those of his great forebears in the long, noble line of the English novel. His narratives belong in a tradition that goes back to John Galsworthy and Arnold Bennett.”
Life Magazine
“Sheer, wonderful storytelling.”
Chicago Tribune
“Highly recommended. Combines tension with a splendid sense of atmosphere and vivid characterisation. An excellent read.”

*************************
fterLife, by S. P. Cloward, is the first in a series of books about the Mortui. Even those who hate Science Fiction love AfterLife, an action-packed, fast-paced thriller that crosses genres to grip the imaginations of readers from 16 to 60. Described as “believable fiction,” you will find yourself rooting for Wes and AfterLife.
Prior to recorded history, a small genetic mutation occurred that created this race now found among every civilization in every corner of the globe. Unrecognizable to the rest of mankind but dependent upon them for survival, this race is known as Mortui; those whose spirits do not sever from their bodies when they die. They are not zombies, but they are the source of all living dead legends.
“You living beings have an instinctual knowledge of our existence. Why do you think people are afraid to look into the eyes of strangers, or avoid the gazes of those they pass? It comes from an intuitive need to protect yourselves from us.”
At the time of his premature death, Wesley Lohmann discovers he belongs to this select group. “You aren’t a zombie. Zombies are bodies without a soul, and such a thing can’t really exist. Your soul still resides in your body; it’s just not a living body as you think of one.”
Wes joins in the impending conflict between two rival organizations; AfterLife, determined to co-exist symbiotically with humans, and The Atumra, a Mortui organization headed by Seth that focuses on the domination and subjection of the living.
“Seth remained in his seat, pleased by his successful hunt and reveling in the physical sensations he always felt when he was finished. His victim sat lifeless on the other side of the train and Seth knew it could be hours before anyone realized she was dead. He had looked into her soul and seen her hopes for a rich and full life, yet he had squashed her pathetic dreams and life without a second thought. The image of her body riding the train for hours caused him to smile. He had fed on her in public and not a single person in that car knew he had done it. He truly was the superior species – a Mortui, and thus, a god.”
As Wes struggles with new and past relationships and tries to find meaning for his continued existence, he discovers within himself the ability and heart to tip the balance in favor of those who want to deal harmoniously with mankind.

“Wow! Reads like a action film in reeling off in your head!” -By Joanna Daneman –Sub-Human Review
(VINE VOICE) (TOP 10 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
“A Better Read Than Many of the Big Names in the Genre.” -By Michael J. Crow –Sub-Human Review
(VINE VOICE)
“Post-Human, a noteworthy sci-fi novel” -Examiner.com –Post-Human Review
“A thought-provoking, energetic sci-fi book, with a robust dose of high-octane exploits.” -A.F. Stewart, author of Chronicles of the Undead –Trans-Human Review
The series started in 2009 with Post-human, followed by it’s sequel, 2011′s Trans-Human, and then leading to the prequel, published in the summer of 2012, Sub-Human. The trilogy can be read in the order of publication or in the chronological order of the entire epic story. The ebook is ordered according to the narrative, but reading it in the order of publication is its own, rewarding experience. It’s all up to your preference.
Readers have taken to calling this the “Human Series,” and why not? It’s the story of humanity’s future, both the possible bliss, the possible torment, and all of the in between. It might expand your view of what “human” really means, it might make you consider the pleasures and pains of immortality, and reflect on the extraordinary benefits and profound danger of strong A.I. All of this delivered in an epic series, paced faster than most novels, with twists and turns around almost every page, and a set of characters with whom you’ll fall in love.

This book provides a science-based approach for making those changes in a way that works best for you, without wasting time, money, or effort.

Simple recipes are provided for weight loss foods that reduce cravings and prolong satisfaction.
What this book offers is a solid approach to weight loss–self-directed, gradual, and lasting–in contrast to the quick but fleeting weight loss offered by most one-size-fits-all diet plans.
