First Impressions

Archer & Armstrong is a superhero buddy comedy without the tights. Archer is the world's greatest hand-to-hand fighter, an expert marksman, and a seeker of truth and righteousness. Since being murdered by his parents, he has returned from the dead convinced that God has empowered him to right the wrongs of the world. Armstrong is a ten-thousand year old libertine as strong as a battalion who abandoned naive idealism thousands of years ago. He spends his days wandering the world drinking, fighting. And telling stories of his unbelievable adventures throughout history. On the run from an ancient cult and its bumbling agents that have been hunting Armstrong for two thousand years, the unlikely pair team up to face down the threat that could destroy the world!

Pretty creased and worn; a well-loved copy of this title.

The Day of the Locust is a novel about Hollywood and its corrupting touch, about the American dream turned into a sun-drenched California nightmare. Nathaniel West's Hollywood is not the glamorous "home of the stars" but a seedy world of little people, some hopeful, some desparing, all twisted by their by their own desires-from the ironically romantic artist narrator to a macho movie cowboy, a middle-aged innocent from America's heartland, and the hard-as-nails call girl would-be-star whom they all lust after. An unforgettable portrayal of a world that mocks the real and rewards the sham, turns its back on love to plunge into empty sex, and breeds a savage violence that is its own undoing, this novel stands as a classic indictment of all that is most extravagant and uncontrolled in American life.

"Across a multitude of parallel universes, dark forces operate in the shadows, manipulating mankind's histories throughout countless timelines. The agents of these Disruptors all work with a single purpose - the recovery and activation of Foxfire, a long-hidden doomsday device whose unspeakable power is capable of consuming the galaxy in all its incarnations. Standing in the way of the Disruptors is Luther Arkwright, a human anomaly who exists only in a single universe, a man of vast psychic powers and capable of travelling between the parallel realities to counter the Disruptor's malign influence. But the Disruptors are aware of Arkwright and his abilities, and while Arkwright searches the myriad Earths for the location of Foxfire, the agents of darkness race to destroy him... and to ensure their unthinkable ends."--Amazon.com
