Review & Description

The third book of the Prepper saga finds our stalwart survivors suffering yet again even more calamities. Winter has set in with a vengeance and a freak snowstorm has mysteriously started as yet another coronal mass ejection from a solar storm has occurred. The lakes residents take this as an ominous warning that a mini ice age might be a possibility because of the odd space weather occurring. Christmas plans are put on hold as everyone starts to jealously hoard the supplies they need to get through the worst winter anyone can remember. Instead of a season of joy and sharing to look forward to, a season of austerity and foreboding awaits our survivors.The third book of the Prepper saga finds our stalwart survivors suffering yet again even more calamities.

Review & Description

When God Laughs(Annotated)
Jack London produced this collection of twelve short stories toward the end of his career in 1911. Named after the first story - about a couple that tries in vain to uphold an intensely idealistic romance against the erosions of time and the inconstancy of human nature - the collection explores themes for which London became famous: the struggle for survival in the midst of hostile environments, human nature's most elemental drives, and worker abuse in industrialized society.
Highly Recommend!
Born as John Griffith Chaney in San Francisco on January 12, 1876, JACK LONDON grew up in a world witnessing the settlement of the last frontier. He was raised by his mother and his stepfather, whose surname, London, he took. Many of the details of London's early life remain speculative, but as an adolescent he adopted the nickname Jack, and at the age of fourteen he quit school to seek adventure.

The last decade of London's life was marked by physical ailments, including a kidney disease of unknown origin. He died at the age of forty of gastrointestinal uremic poisoning, which caused kidney failure on November 22, 1916. Nevertheless, during his short career, he had published more than fifty books, including novels, nonfiction works, and volumes of short stories, as well as hundreds of articles, essays, and reviews.When God Laughs(Annotated)

Review & Description

Hear the stories of men and women battling the elements, and sometimes each other, to stay alive, confronting savage storms, rogue waves, icebergs, sharks, starvation and their own fear and suffering. From Sebastian Junger's The Whale Hunter to Herman Wouk's The Caine Mutiny to Lawrence Beesley's The Loss of The S.S. Titanic, Rough Water is a unique collection of the finest writing on why men and women go to sea, and what they find there. Rough Water is an adventure audiobook at its most compelling! · Publishers Weekly 'Listen Up' Award Winner · Audiofile Magazine's 'Earphones' Award · ForeWord Magazine's 'Audiobook of the Year' NomineeClint Willis, the anthologist de l'extrème who brought us High, takes to the brine for a wide-lens collection of tales from the high seas in Rough Water. Much of it aims for the outer reach as portrayed in Sebastian Junger's Perfect Storm. Armchair navigators will thrill to the dangers and codes of honor that intermingle in the surf, as in Robin Knox-Johnston's stiff-upper-lip telling of his solo circumglobal sail: "I was in the lead and stood a slight chance of winning, and I felt that this would be worth giving an eye for, so I carried on." And like many anthologies, this one may draw readers to the full-length versions. Tony Farrington's harrowing account of a rescue in the South Pacific stands on its own, but others, like Steven Callahan's "Adrift: Seventy-six Days Lost at Sea," beg for a full telling. Not recommended for a pleasure cruise. --Tipton Blish Read more

Review & Description

You are one of the last survivors in a city overrun by the walking dead. The news reports say it's the result of a government experiment gone wrong, and advise citizens to remain indoors to wait for aid. But you're not getting any safer, and you'd be wise to get out of town while you can. The zombies aren't your only concern, however. Thieves, cults, roadblocks, gun-nut survivors, and military defenses are just some of what you'll have to deal with as you make your escape. It's the one little thing you don't expect, one wrong turn, one bad decision that will get you killed. It's going to take more than guts and a gun to get you out alive. Use your knowledge of the event, your instincts, and every ounce of your luck. Maybe it will be enough. Maybe you'll fine the one way out. Read more

When no one comes to save you…you have to save yourself

Maia Duncan learned “Stranger Danger” and the perils of the internet when she was just 12 years old. Unfortunately after her captivity and forced participation into the sex trade, it was a lesson she learned too late.

But after six long years when her next assignment was to groom other young girls in the sex trade, Maia knew she had to escape…or die trying.

The Blues were born out of need, anger and pride. Murder comes from those same dark places. Memphis has both. One of Memphis' most seductive and notorious socialites has vanished. Either she's off on another drunken escapade or the disappearance is something much more frightening. What begins as an ordinary day's work for Detective Billy Able quickly grows into a complex spider's web of tragedy, mystery, suspicion, and sordid secrets including a few of Billy's own. With the help of Mercy Snow, the estranged sister of the missing socialite, Billy follows a twisted trail of human frailty and corruption to disturbing truths that undermine everything he thought he knew about himself and the people he loves.The Blues were born out of need, anger and pride.

Joe Ledger is in trouble.  Big trouble.  Again.

Last night, Joe Ledger and Echo Team rescued a group of American college kids held hostage in Iran.  This morning the Iranian government asks Joe to help find six nuclear bombs planted in the Mideast oil fields. 

Then things get really crazy.  Stolen WMDs, hidden vaults of forbidden knowledge, mass-murder, betrayal, and a brotherhood of genetically-engineered killers with a very real thirst for blood.

ASSASSIN’S CODE launches Joe Ledger on a relentless worldwide chase to stop an ancient order of killers from plunging the entire world into a new and vastly terrible Holy War.  Accompanied by the beautiful assassin called Violin, Joe follows a series of clues to find the Book of Shadows, which contains a horrifying truth that threatens to shatter his entire worldview.

They say the truth will set you free…  Not this time.  The secrets of the Assassin’s Code will set the world ablaze.

An old fable tells us of the ants and grasshopper; the ants pass the summer toiling in preparation for the winter, while the grasshopper sings and plays with little thought to what is to come. In the story, the grasshopper is turned away when he comes begging for food, in some versions he is forced to play music to earn it. What would really happen once winter arrived, would the grasshopper truly let himself go hungry?

The world as we know it has died, but as they say ‘life finds a way’. It is now a world of tremendous abominations, an existence of ants and grasshoppers. Young Gillian Parker is alone in this world, on a mission, taking a leap of faith in search of something that may or may not be there. Whatever the outcome, she is willing to do anything to see her quest to completion; she has nothing left to lose. 34,000 words

By Black Diamond

$125.00 - $139.95

First tagged by Brandie
Customer tags: avalanche safety, backpacking, emergency kit, emergency supplies, camping, avalanche, black diamond avalung, survival, emergency preparedness

Review & Description

The Black Diamond AvaLung II is one of the most important developments in avalanche safety since the avalanche beacon. It should be a part of every backcountry traveler's tools. Use it in conjunction with a shovel, probe, transceiver, and experienced and capable companions to increase your chances of survival should you be caught in an avalanche. The Black Diamond AvaLung is designed for backcountry powder skiing & snowboarding, alpinism, and snowmobiling. The AvaLung is a simple filtration device which draws air directly from the snow pack. Even dense avalanche debris consists of approximately 50% air. The AvaLung membrane increases the surface area from which you breathe, making it possible to pull this air from the snow. You breathe in and out through the tube. The patented system within the AvaLung separates the O2 from the exhaled CO2, which is directed away from the air intake and out the back of the vest to diffuse through the snow pack. At the on snow demo last season, we watched them bury a guy in the snow for over an hour. When they dug him up, he was a little cold but otherwise fine (they even tested the CO2 levels in his blood). While we think that the AvaLung is a great innovation, we recognize that it does have its shortcomings. While tumbling in a slide, you might well lose your bite on the mouthpiece--or you may not even have had a chance to bite it. However, we feel that this device can increase your chances of survival. It's another great tool in your quiver. Get the Avalung II size that corresponds with your T-shirt size. They are highly adjustable.

Product Features

• Material: nylon, rugged flexible plastic
• Dimensions:
• Weight: 9.3 oz
• Recommended Use: increasing avalanche-survival chances by allowing continued breathing while submerged in snow
• Manufacturer Warranty: 1 year
