    Lunch with Charlotte

    Readers' Favorite 5 star logoKBR Finalist BadgeLeon Berger

    THE TRUE SAGA OF AN EXTRAORDINARY WOMAN, SET AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF HISTORY Every Friday for the last 25 years of her life, I had lunch with Charlotte and each week she told me more of her extraordinary story. To all appearances, she was a strong and dignified survivor, with old-world courtesies, a twinkling sense of humor, and a lilting Austrian syntax. Yet deep within, she'd been scarred by a profound personal trauma. Finally, just before she died at the age of 91, she chose to entrust me with this profound secret and all at once I understood how it had affected her entire adult life.

    TBR Pile - 5 star awardGeorge Wright Padgett

    For over a hundred and fifty years, the rarest and most valuable substance in the solar system has been mined from the only location where it exists in significant quantity: Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede. For all of this time, the remote mining outpost has been serviced by clone slaves who are drugged into mindlessness, and all of it has been monitored, controlled, and administered by the artificial intelligence known as Prinox. But what happens when a failed rescue mission causes a small band of escaped clones to begin questioning their lives, their society, and their very existence? Hunted by deadly killing machines, confused and scared, these renegade slaves are about to find out–for better or worse–just what it means to be human.

    William Broughton Burt

    From the author: Please don?t try to learn Tai Chi by rote memorization. That?s the usual way, and it?s a Confucian teaching device for a Confucian age. This book devotes nearly three hundred pages to fresh, original explanations of what Tai Chi is and how it works. You want my advice? Learn Tai Chi. Just however you can. It?s that good. But do yourself a favor and read these pages first. You?ll feel very empowered when you line up for that first lesson, and you?ll stay loose and light all the way through the learning curve. That?s important because you never reach the end of it. Tai Chi is all learning curve.
    • Author lived in China during SARS epidemic, now makes his home in Mexico
    • Intended for readers from teens to adults
    • Broad appeal to many different types of readers
