Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Ode to the Hummingbird by Lexi Bone is a comic fiction memoir told from the perspective of a sharp-tongued, three-gram ruby-throated hummingbird. Spanning four years, the narrative follows the tiny narrator's frantic life between Pettigrew Hollow, Ohio, and Cerro Chachalaca in the highlands of San Bartolo. Along the way, it satirizes human suburban lawns, dangerous picture windows, and architectural choices while highlighting real ecological preservation, shade-grown coffee, and pollinator corridors.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1024, a squirrel with poor judgment flings a seed the size of an oat flake into a bed of warm ash on the west slope of the Sierra Nevada. A thousand and two years later, that seed is nine feet through, leaning eleven degrees west, charred to the ninetieth foot, and thoroughly out of patience.Thick-Skinned is the memoir of a giant sequoia who has watched the gold rush, the auger crews who killed a tree to prove it existed, the men who skinned another one for a touring exhibit, the century when humans loved these groves so much they stopped letting them burn - and the morning a fire crew arrived at dawn and gave his neighbor a coat.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Meet Seamus 'The Electric Tail Wiper' O'Malley - a Chicago Outfit enforcer who treats murder as an extension of good manners. In Volume I, Seamus dispatches a foul-mouthed associate and a slovenly rival hitman, one etiquette violation at a time. In Volume II, he's dispatched to a silent monastery to 'relocate' a loud-chewing mob turncoat hiding in witness protection - smuggling him out in a laundry hamper without disturbing the monks' vow of silence. Equal parts crime caper and comedy of manners, this is Goodfellas as written by Emily Post. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Vermont, All Hallows' Eve, 1854. Father Seamus Malloy, an exiled Irish Catholic priest serving a hostile Yankee frontier town, is dragged from his rectory when a terrified boy reports that his father and brother have vanished into the abandoned, unnamed church atop Blackwood Ridge - a granite ruin locals refuse to speak of. Battling both the era's virulent anti-Catholic prejudice and something far older than his faith accounts for, Seamus climbs to the ridge and enters a structure whose geometry defies God and reason alike. Inside, he confronts an ancient, pre-Christian entity that has fed on the town's blood offerings for generations, and must find a way to save the very men who despise him most - armed with nothing but iron, wit, and holy water cut with whiskey. A tightly-paced Gothic horror novella blending cosmic dread, 19th-century immigrant tension, and one very sardonic priest.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - One Copper Penny: Four Tales of the People Who Actually Did the Work is a historical fiction anthology exploring the unsung, grit-fueled individuals behind major historical milestones and everyday triumphs. Across four distinct eras, the stories follow: 1. Sheamus O'Donnell (1804-1806): An Irish scout wading through mud and dodging grizzlies days ahead of Lewis & Clark to clear the path and make treaties. 2. PFC Jack Garrett (1942): A small, sharp-witted Kentucky soldier in WWII who accidentally bluffs the German High Command while submerged in sauerkraut and escaping on a bicycle. 3. Billy Ray Vance (1994): A laid-off Peoria teen who silences his inner slacker, fixes his Camaro's thrown rod, and steps up to real adulthood at a heavy diesel repair shop. 4. Unit 7-B / Barnaby (1792 / 2030): An autonomous construction robot thrust into 18th-century Salem, learning from a local blacksmith what it means to build with purpose. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Spanning from 1507 to 2026, Roots in the Mud is a witty, satirical work of comic historical fiction narrated by a five-hundred-year-old Southern Live Oak anchored on a crescent bend of the Mississippi River.From early indigenous portage paths to the questionable French decision to build a capital in a swamp, the oak witnesses the full, chaotic arc of New Orleans history. Accompanied by a cynical tree frog named Clovis and a nervous screech owl named Barnaby, our leafy narrator offers a front-row seat to category-three hurricanes, devastating city fires, pirate battles, yellow fever epidemics, Union gunboats, early jazz sessions, Mardi Gras bead showers, and the catastrophic floodwaters of Hurricane Katrina. Sharp, absurd, and surprisingly heart-filled, this novel proves that while humans build, burn, and rebuild, nature keeps the receipts. LARGE PRINT.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Further Adventures of Man Bun by Lexi Bone is a satirical, high-camp superhero narrative set in Nazi-occupied Paris. It follows Jean-Pierre, a seemingly mild-mannered, devastatingly slender Montmartre florist. Secretly, Jean-Pierre is Man Bun, a Resistance operative endowed with a twelve-foot canopy of prehensile, diamond-hard hair braids and an immensely chiseled, gravity-defying, bullet-deflecting pair of glutes. Along with his Resistance ally Monique, Jean-Pierre uses his unique anatomy to shatter Nazi physics and liberate Paris.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Told from the wry, world-weary perspective of a ninety-year-old Eastern Cottonwood on the Vicksburg bluffs, this illustrated novella recasts the Siege of Vicksburg (1862-63) as witnessed by the wildlife who actually lived through it. The tree - dryly unimpressed by human 'architecture,' steamboats, and ironclads - narrates the chaos alongside its animal tenants: a gossiping flying squirrel, a bickering mockingbird couple who mimic cannon fire for fun, a cynical raccoon matriarch, and a possum with poor impulse control. Real historical beats (a grounded steamboat, Farragut's ironclad fleet, the CSS Arkansas's suicidal run through the Union gauntlet, a human family sheltering in a cave dug into the tree's roots) play out as slapstick and quiet tragedy in equal measure, with the tree itself taking a cannonball to the trunk and losing a limb before the armies finally move on. It closes on a note of patient, ecological perspective - the tree outlasting the war, certain the humans will return.Dedicated to the work and the mission of the Arbor Day Foundation.…

Stripped of everything that once defined him, Jed must survive in Cynthia's world: the Tenderloin's pimps, predators, and forgotten people. But the same current that killed him didn't leave him empty-handed. Alternating Currents is a genre-bending story of body-swap, reckoning, and reluctant redemption, crackling with equal parts grit and voltage.GIANT PRINT.…
