AMAZING GRACE IN ABUNDANCE is an exciting story about a single
British Christian woman in her mid-thirties who was plagued by very
tough challenges. She lost her job as a Senior Marketing Officer,
lost her boyfriend in a plane crash, was diagnosed with fibroids
and breast cancer, her bank account was hacked and she lost all her
savings. All these calamities came in quick succession. She had to
face all these trials by faith through the amazing grace of God in
abundance made available to her as a Christian, and in the end she
triumphed, as she was healed, and got all round restoration. This
fiction is loaded with intriguing scenes and action. The author,
Michael Nwaduba carefully put together this well-crafted, Holy
Spirit inspired book, by using events and circumstances happening
all around us, and also using the Word of God to embellish it and
to make it come alive. You are in for an exhilarating time as you
read this book which has the ability to deliver, transform, and
bring forth healing. All you have to do is read this book with an
open heart, and rapt attention and you will surely connect to the
amazing grace of God in abundance for your life.
Like George Orwell, Franz Kafka has given his name to a world of
nightmare, but in Kafka's world, it is never completely clear just
what the nightmare is. The Trial, where the rules are hidden from
even the highest officials, and if there is any help to be had, it
will come from unexpected sources, is a chilling, blackly amusing
tale that maintains, to the very end, a relentless atmosphere of
disorientation. Superficially about bureaucracy, it is in the last
resort a description of the absurdity of 'normal' human nature.
Still more enigmatic is The Castle. Is it an allegory of a
quasi-feudal system giving way to a new freedom for the subject?
The search by a central European Jew for acceptance into a dominant
culture? A spiritual quest for grace or salvation? An individual's
struggle between his sense of independence and his need for
approval? Is it all of these things? And K? Is he opportunist,
victim, or an outsider battling against elusive authority? Finally,
in his fables, Kafka deals in dark and quirkily humorous terms with
the insoluble dilemmas of a world which offers no reassurance, and
no reliable guidance to resolving our existential and emotional
uncertainties and anxieties.

What does persuasion mean - a firm belief, or the action of
persuading someone to think something else? Anne Elliot is one of
Austen's quietest heroines, but also one of the strongest and the
most open to change. She lives at the time of the Napoleonic wars,
a time of accident, adventure, the making of new fortunes and
alliances.
