Ann lives on the Gulf Coast of Florida where she continues to write. Bryn died and was replaced by Torri and then Poppet. Poppet speaks much less than her predecessors. I like what C .S. Lewis says about Christian writers: "that we don't need more books about Christianity, but more Christians writing books." Spiritual warfare is a profound subject and a war that wages constantly around us. I have made a research project out of it and how a clever enemy and deceitful enemy knows just where to strike us in his never ending battle against the almighty kingdom of heaven--a battle he will lose. Angels are powerful warriors in this battle. I did a master thesis on the works of C.S. Lewis and am much indebted to his Screwtape letters, out of which this novel grew. Bible Study Fellowship International of San Antonio, Texas is one of the greatest programs available in this country and abroad for the dissemination of Bible knowledge and wisdom. It is to that organization that the royalties of this book will flow.

The arrival of the James Bond film series merited little more than an inch of copy in the trade press of 1961, but its success since the 1962 release of Dr. No has been phenomenal, spawning nineteen more titles and collecting millions of fans along the way during Bond's thirty-five years of escapades. This insightful book brings together everything a Bond fan would want to know about the Bond classics, covering Dr. No, From Russia with Love, and Goldfinger to License to Kill, Goldeneye, and Tomorrow Never Dies -- scheduled to be released in the fall of 1997 -- and all those in between. In this detailed new history of Bond on screen, the authors have chosen ten key elements to rate each film, and each element -- Teaser, Titles, Bonkers Plot, Locations, Gadgets, Girls, Villains, Fights, Chases, Explosions, Dialogue and Double Entendres, Bond -- is given a mark from one to ten to reflect its success as a James Bond film. They also provide Bond buffs with behind-the-scenes gossip and rare information on unofficial Bond spin-offs, such as "OK Connery" and the various Bond-influenced TV series and films, and take into account all of 007's other film appearances, opening with a sideways look at Ian Fleming's original conception of Bond and following the trail of Bond on and off the screen through his portrayers: Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, and current star Pierce Brosnan -- the Bond of the '90s. With complete cast and credit information for each film, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is the ultimate book for all things Bond.

Gothic and Horror have been perceived as intertwined ever since their coming into existence. Although initially emerging as clearly delineated literary genres, in the late 20th century we can speak of their transition into more open cultural categories. Gothic and Horror influences, previously limited to books and films, predominate in contemporary art, fashion, theatrical and performance art, video and multimedia installations, music, video and computer games. Gothic and Horror have invaded the language of politics and resulted in the formation of a number of subcultures styling their lives accordingly. The awareness of the above makes us realise that the insistence on the treatment of Gothic and Horror as separate genres is at least limiting, if not unacceptable. An alternative offered by this book, resulting from a thorough examination of the presence of Gothic and Horror conventions in contemporary culture, calls for an introduction of two new classificatory units, referred to in the book as Gothic and Horror syndromes, which can be brought down to the representations of disease and meat respectively.
