The Gospel Train left the station long, long ago filled with
believers traveling on a straight, resolute track toward an
eternal, spiritual paradise. But along the way, different cars of
believers were switched off the main track and are now traveling in
a somewhat different direction. Even though they are now following
many different sets of rails, they all believe they are on the only
true path that will take them to their desired destination. This
book reveals the ways in which different religions deviated from a
common trunk into contrary, discordant branches that are now
essentially at war with one another. The book focuses on what
Christian Bibles actually say instead of what believers are told
they say. It gives an accurate account of religious history from
verifiable documents that are both ancient and up-to-date records
from many different sources. The most tantalizing revelation is the
nature of God as stated directly from Christian Bibles. Readers are
encouraged to use their own Bibles to verify all references to
scripture. Both chapter and verse are supplied for reference
purposes. After reading this book, you will never again feel
exactly the same way about your religion.

The definitive art book for the remastered Spyro Reignited Trilogy,
for fans young and old. In 2018 Toys for Bob Studios thrilled fans
world wide by releasing Spyro Reignited Trilogy, a faithful
remaster encompassing all three titles from the beloved Spyro
trilogy introduced in 1998. The Art of Spyro is a meticulously
crafted compendium filled with in-depth behind-the-scenes content,
insightful quotes from top illustrators in the industry, anecdotes
from the game developers, and a dazzling assortment of incredible
concept art, some of which has never been seen by the public. It is
a must-have for art lovers, games, fans... and the fun-loving
adventurer in all of us.
In the predawn hours of a gloomy February day in 1994, two thieves
entered the National Gallery in Oslo and made off with one of the
world's most famous paintings, Edvard Munch's Scream. It was a
brazen crime committed while the whole world was watching the
opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer. Baffled
and humiliated, the Norwegian police turned to the one man they
believed could help: a half English, half American undercover cop
named Charley Hill, the world's greatest art detective.The Rescue
Artist is a rollicking narrative that carries readers deep inside
the art underworld -- and introduces them to a large and colorful
cast of titled aristocrats, intrepid investigators, and
thick-necked thugs. But most compelling of all is Charley Hill
himself, a complicated mix of brilliance, foolhardiness, and charm
whose hunt for a purloined treasure would either cap an illustrious
career or be the fiasco that would haunt him forever.
