Despite having their secret revealed, the residents of Melbrook Hall return to Lander University for another year in the Hero Certification Program. Good thing the focus of this year is teamwork, because with their origins known, they'll have to lean on each other more than ever. Now finally sophomores, their curriculum expands, allowing them to train in the majors that Heroes specialize in. The new classes will test their minds, bodies, and determination in ways never anticipated.

Reggie Watts is weird. But you knew that. Anyone who’s seen his multifaceted, entirely improvised comedy and music shows knows that. Reggie Watts is also from the town of Great Falls, MT. These two facts are not unrelated. Watts grew up in Montana in the ‘80s, half French, half American, half white, half Black, speaking a bunch of different languages and slipping between the orchestra geeks and the football jocks until he finally found a squad of fellow misfits with an affinity for trouble.

Many LGBTQ people face overwhelming challenges in navigating faith, gender, and sexuality. Christian communities that uphold the traditional sexual ethic often unwittingly make the path more difficult through unexamined attitudes and practices. Drawing on her sociological training and her leadership in the Side B/Revoice conversation, Bridget Eileen Rivera, who founded the popular website Meditations of a Traveling Nun, speaks to the pain of LGBTQ Christians and helps churches develop a better pastoral approach.

Very Educational even for non-Christians
Reviewed: 03-29-22
Excellent job explaining the hypocrisy of heterosexual Christians versus their acceptance of GLBTQ Christians. For me personally, reinforces why I don’t like Christianity as it is today.
If you are a Christian, I think this is definitely worth listening to. If you dismiss this book out of hand than you further prove that you really don’t follow the teachings of the Bible.
Hate the “sin” and love the sinner. Judge not unless you be judged yourself.

Speak of the Devil is the first book-length study of The Satanic Temple. Joseph Laycock, a scholar of new religious movements, contends that the emergence of "political Satanism" marks a significant moment in American religious history that will have a lasting impact on how Americans frame debates about religious freedom.

Very insightful on TST & Religion
Reviewed: 12-20-21
Really in depth look in The Satanic Temple, Satanism and religious majority/ minority issues. I learned a lot. Explains why TST meets the definition of a religion and why it really is one too.
It also talks about the hypocrisy of our country’s religious “freedom”. I would definitely recommend.

This could/should be a movie!
Reviewed: 03-20-21
I really enjoyed this. It’s a fresh take on a post apocalyptic world. Main character is enjoyable and fun.
The use of real world locations, places I’ve heard of or live near, it’s also very enjoyable.
I also felt the way it was organized, the chapter breaks, would make it an ideal movie/TV show/made for TV movie.
I have read/listen to his other books and it’s potential for a scyfi miniseries at the minimum.
If it looking for a different take on the future, then give this one a shot.
It’s like a refreshing splash of water across your face. Pun intended.

This was a great short story but it ended prematurely. Which is why only 4 stars for story. I want more. Which really is the best way to end a story in some ways.
Gritty, action packed.... look forward to more tales of the Weller.
As for the the narrator, he was great. I think he captures the character well.
