Florist shop owner Gravis Mushnick has two employees, Audrey Fulquard and Seymour Krelboined. Located on skid row, Mushnick's rundown shop gets little business. When Seymour fouls up a floral arrangement for dentist Dr. Farb, Mushnick fires him. Hoping to change his mind, Seymour talks about a plant he has grown from seeds he got from a "Japanese gardener over on Central Avenue."[20] Seymour named the plant "Audrey Jr.", which delights Audrey. However, when finally shown the plant, Mushnick is unimpressed. Seymour suggests that Audrey Jr.'s uniqueness might attract people to see it, and Mushnick gives him one week to revive the plant. The usual plant food does not nourish it, but when Seymour accidentally pricks his finger, he discovers that the plant craves blood. Fed on Seymour's blood, Audrey Jr. begins to grow. The shop's revenues increase when customers are lured in to see the plant. Mushnick tells Seymour to refer to him as "Dad" and calls Seymour his son in front of a customer. The plant develops the ability to speak and demands that Seymour feed it. Now anemic, Seymour walks along the railroad track. Throwing a rock to vent his frustration, he inadvertently knocks out a drunken man who falls on the track and is run over by a train. He tries to get rid of the body by burying it in a yard but is nearly caught each time. Guilt-ridden, Seymour decides to feed the mutilated body parts to Audrey Jr. Meanwhile, Mushnick returns to the shop to get cash and secretly observes Seymour feeding the plant. Mushnick considers telling the police but hesitates after seeing the line of customers at his shop the next day.

Dr. Douglas Martin is a scientist working on atomic bomb tests. While collecting aerial data on an Air Force atomic blast at Soledad Flats, his plane crashes. He survives the crash unhurt, walking back to the air base with no memory of what happened, except for a strange scar on his chest.At the base hospital, he acts so strangely that the authorities bring in the FBI, thinking he may be an impostor. He is cleared, but told to take some time off. He protests at being excluded from his project.An atomic test is set off without his knowledge, so Martin steals the data, then goes back to Soledad Flats and puts the papers under a stone. The FBI agent has followed him, but he escapes until he crashes his car. Back at the hospital, he is given truth serum. He tells a story about being captured by space aliens from Astron Delta and held in their underground base. (The aliens have big eyes like ping-pong balls.)The aliens plan to exterminate all humans with giant insects and reptiles, grown with radiation absorbed from the bomb tests. Martin intuits that the aliens use stolen electric power to control their powerful apparatus, and they need the bomb data to predict the energy to be released and balanced. The aliens had blanked his memory and hypnotized him into getting the data for them.The FBI agent and the base commander are skeptical of such an incredible story, and keep him confined at the hospital.With some calculations on a slide rule, Dr. Martin determines that if he shuts off the power to Soledad Flats for just ten seconds, it will create an overload in the aliens' equipment. So he escapes the hospital and goes to the nearby electrical power plant, where he forces a technician to turn off the power. The alien base is destroyed in a massive explosion, saving the Earth from conquest.

Professor Henry Morlant (Boris Karloff), a great Egyptologist, thinks that the ancient jewel which he calls the "Eternal Light" will give him powers of rejuvenation if it is offered up to the ancient Egyptian god Anubis.

While a gaggle of interlopers, including a disreputable solicitor (Cedric Hardwicke) and a fake parson (Ralph Richardson), descend on the Professor's manor to investigate or steal the jewel for themselves, Morlant returns from the dead ("when the full moon strikes the door of my tomb", he predicted before dying) to kill everyone who has betrayed him.

"George Armstrong Custer attended West Point, graduating in the Class of 1861. He served as an officer in the United States Army during the Civil War. He was present at the Civil War's first major engagement, the First Battle of Bull Run, and was the officer who received General Robert E. Lee's Flag of Truce, marking Lee's surrender, at the end of the war. Custer fought with the U.S. Seventh Cavalry in the Indian Wars beginning in 1867. He was killed at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, a battle that has come to be known as Custer's Last Stand."

a FREE PREVIEW! I am not famous. I will never be rich. I will most likely only stand and speak after thousands of people. But I have a story to tell. This is an adventure. Once you begin reading this, you will see how God took an ordinary man from a little hollow in Johnson City, TN, through many different trials, ranging from thoughts of suicide, drinking, and going from one bad marriage to another. During all this, the Lord was directing me (most of the time without me realizing it). In doing so, He directed me to a small church where I began as an usher. He led me to a massive church in Richmond, Michigan, where I ended up in the middle of the original Mormon Church. You will see how the Lord began to reveal truths I could have never known on my own and how He used me as a vessel to open the eyes of those around me. I went from being called into meetings with church elders to having men and women of the church rise against me, demanding that I be silenced. One of my favorite quotes is, "Adversity introduces a man to himself." - Albert Einstein. Trust me, I believe it. I was ordained after only a year and began preaching in many Michigan churches. Along the way, I made many friends and enemies and encountered demon-possessed people, all the while preaching only the truth from the word of God. This book is ten years in the making. It is my life of heartaches and pain, love and joy. I wrote it not for money but to assure the reader that no matter what your walk of life is, God is still God and is not a respecter of persons. However, he has a perfect purpose and plan for your life. Take your eyes off your circumstances and look upon Jesus. I have had to remind myself of this many times. My life is now better than it has ever been. It is truly a life worth living.

Who are the Seventh day Adventist? I have long had a fascination with other beliefs. I began in a non-denominational church, and to say the least I really did not understand the restraints of the denominations of today. That is until I joined and preached in a church in Michigan called the community of Christ, in which my first book was largely about. Now I would like to say before I begin our journey into the church known as the seventh day Adventist that I know there will never be the perfect church on earth especially run by is humans. However God did leave us the guidelines that he expects us to follow. God did not design our faiths to be separate and in constant conflict with one another especially over simple doctrinal issues that have- over the centuries tore Gods people apart. He wanted us to worship and praise him as one body not the separate ones that we are today, now with that said let’s begin this study of the Seventh day Adventist, then you the reader can determine, is this the church for you or is it, as some might conclude a cult that has pulled God’s people away from his word, and set them on a path to damnation.

This is it! The first three books of the future series are in one volume! This is the very series that caused me to have to alter my entire universe. In this volume are The future, the war, and the future's end! In this one book, you will bare witness to men and women as they try and escape a world on a collision course with an evil threat that, in the end, destroys all life as we know it, worlds torn apart, and war ranges all over the globe. And the only hope for humankind to survive is The future, a spacecraft, the first of its kind designed to house what is left of humanity. But what lurks beyond the stars may be far more dangerous than what is happening on earth. So sit back and relax and take a ride that you will not soon forget."

"Rico is a small, pale man, but he has guts, endurance and a steely single-mindedness. When Vettori sends the gang out to rob a local nightclub, Rico shoots a cop who pulls a gun on him. They get away, but Vettori is shocked. He had told Rico, no gunplay. That’s when Rico realizes that Vettori has gone soft. He’s too old to control the gang anymore. So Rico takes over. With the faithful Otero at his side, the rest of them quickly shift their allegiances. Now the world is Rico’s. It’s his gang, and he’s calling all the shots. But there is always a weak link, someone who’s ready to spill when the bulls get tough. And sooner or later the nightclub killing is bound to catch up with him."

"It all comes down to Who is Perh Cushing, the mystery man who controls all the crime worldwide. Well, the search is on. He owns New York, Chicago, Detroit, and others. He funds Terrorist organizations, Finances every illegal origination known, and gives to charities. That's right, he is also a very charitable man, but who is? Well, that's what everyone wants to know. Following the noir series of books beginning with Detroit Noir 1-3 and moving through 1954 Noir, Chicago Noir, New York pulp, and finally Noir Complete. If you don't enjoy suspense, danger, murder, espionage, romance, and action-adventure, this book is not for you! This is it! The end has come, or has it? My most significant challenge in writing is not writing itself but ending anything. I love stories that continue on and on. I love watching how characters grow and change from their experiences. I get to know my characters so well that they become a part of my family, so when one dies, it is as much of a shock to me as anyone. However, this is not the end, per se. It is the beginning of a new era. The series itself took on a life all its own. What began as a straightforward crime story expanded into a global epic—starting in Detroit and crossing the globe. Then he made his presence known, Perh Cushing, the mastermind behind the crime wave. And with his company came others until the little story became a big one that has brought you here, dear reader. Between these pages, you will see the conclusion promised at the end of the other books. You will find closure in Chicago Noir and answer, "Did Marla die?" In Chicago Noir book 2, find out what happened with Sgt. Kind, his brave unit in 1954 noir, and the new war against Hitler. Also, New York Pulp, what happened after the building fell, "who lived and who Perished, and what of Manny Van Johnson, Jack Manson, and Brandon Addington? Where do they fit into the grand scheme of things? Well, wonder no longer here is where you will find the closure you seek. Right here in the book you now hold or the book you are currently listening to. So grab some popcorn, drink, kick back, relax, and enjoy the Noir; complete! "Out of the shadows."

As my wife might say, I am a presidential history buff or a nut. I love reading about the bygone times of Grover Cleveland, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and my favorite president, Theodore Roosevelt. Why Roosevelt you might ask, well to try and keep it simple he was honest, what you saw is what you got, I identify with him in many ways, allow me to explain. He was a big game hunter and formed sanctuaries and parks for preservation. I can see that I don’t hunt personally but have friends who do, and I don’t condemn them. I love animals, and yet I would kill one if it meant my family was going to starve. He left office as secretary of the navy to join a fight against Spain; no one would ever do that, especially in today's society. Roosevelt was a cowboy, a boxer, a politician, a war hero, a father, a devoted husband, and most of all, a real human being, and I respect that. I hope you will read or listen to this book about his own words and get to know one of your presidents, and I hope you will come to appreciate him as much as I have. Tim Simpson 2019
