More than a marvelously thrilling drama, this classic novel, written in 1870, foretells with uncanny accuracy the inventions and advanced technology of the twentieth century and has become a literary stepping-stone for generations of science fiction writers.

For this new anthology, Anthony Bonner has chosen central texts from his two-volume compilation, "Selected Works of Ramon Llull". These works serve as an introduction to the life and writings of the Catalan (properly, Majorcan) philosopher and mystic, theologian, and martyr, who lived from 1232 to 1316. Founder of a school of Arabic and other languages, Llull was also a poet and novelist and one of the creators of literary Catalan. This volume contains prefaces on Llull's life, thought and reputation. Of Llull's works, it offers "Book of the Gentile and the Three Wise Men", his seminal Christian apology; the "Ars brevis", a summary of his philosophical system; "The Book of the Lover and the Beloved", a celebration of mystical love in the courtly tradition; and his scathing "Book of the Beasts", an excerpt from a narrative widely acknowledged to be the source of George Orwell's imagery in "Animal Farm".

The purpose of this book is to enlighten the hearts and spirit of women and raise the social consciousness of men to the ever evolving woman. The graphic and poignant conjecture and rhetoric simply exemplifies the female transformation I've seen over my life span coupled with historical facts. Some of my readers will be shocked, some will applaud, and others will be outraged. However, it is not my intent to demean the progress of women in this generation or generations in the past. What happened to "Till Death Do We Part," patience, mercy and sticking together through good and bad times no matter what? Our kids suffer when it's all said and done, thereby leaving us elderly and alone in the time when we need family support in the end. The numbers are climbing exponentially before our eyes. We are reaching critical mass simply because we can't see past the Benjamin/M.O.E. (Money Over Everything.)

Welcome Back! Before we get started, I got to say this. "Y'all some sick individuals requesting this follow-up to "Ladies, What's Wrong With You Now?" called "You Going to Jail Tonight, Bitch!" This book sprang out of the overwhelming response to Chapter 8. If you didn't read it, you're going to be lost. It's just like missing an episode of "Empire" or "As The World Turns." I tried not to leave anyone out. The old game of man versus woman has created billionaires. The proverbial "GOOD MAN" and living happily ever after is always after. This time I'm going to tell it from an O.G. perspective (The O. G. 411 before 911). I hope the contents of this book helps the younger generation. The ways of a woman are unknown but here are some warning signs to let you know when to get the hell out of her way. This book takes a look at ignorance and tolerance. What people do for money is bliss. The misuse of power, unknowingly or knowingly, contributes to a greater evil. No excuses, please.

"Ladies! Now What's Wrong With You?" reflects a little boy seeing his auntie crying and asking her, "Auntie, What's wrong with you?" After she explains the situation involving her relationship to him, she triumphantly tries a again. Later she returns distraught and dejected and seeks a listening ear. When he sees her tears, he says in a frustrated tone, "Auntie, Now What's Wrong With You?" Before publishing this trilogy I asked lots of women to review my manuscript just to get their opinion and 100 percent of you pointed to "You Going To Jail Tonight, Bitch!" Laughter and a smile followed shortly after. There was something about that chapter that convinced me to share some O.G. Love for the younger males. The Powers at "B" in all their capitalistic splendor has somehow convinced women that they have Quote-Un-Quote "A Better Deal."" Undeniably, when women/men accept this "Better Deal," our kids suffer, family unity dissolves and selfishness prevails.

Alyson, alone and lost in a village in Styrony, quickly becomes enmeshed in a struggle between the fearful Black Company, the grumpy but kind-hearted Duke Landsgrafhoffer and a host of woodland creatures. Among these are thirteen trolls, too shy to show themselves to most human beings, but armed with odd magical powers and given to telling rambling stories once they get started. Excitement and dread are leavened with humor and a surreal touch that make Waverstack a joy to read. And read it you must if you want to find out what "waverstack" means

Ramon Llull (ca. 1232-1316), mystic, missionary, philosopher, lay theologian, and one of the founding fathers of Catalan literature, was chiefly known in his own time and in subsequent generations as the inventor of a combinatorial, semi-mechanical method of demonstration, which he called his 'Art' and which he had developed to free interreligious debate from its fruitless textual base. Most of the extensive modern literature has been dedicated to mapping the foundations of Llull's system, with little attempt to see how he used and combined these foundations to produce actual demonstrations. This book, in a series of "explications de textes," tries to explain what kind of demonstrative systems he developed during the two main stages of the 'Art', how they finally evolved into an adaptation of key aspects of medieval Aristotelian logic, and why the 'Art' was central to all Llull's endeavors.
