    "The Passion Within" is an inspirational guide to help readers discover, use and cultivate their gifts while pursuing their passion. The book also discusses what may cause a person to overlook their gift and how to overcome fear in the process of pursuing one's passion. The authors want the readers to know that God always sends a motivator in those moments when doubt and feelings of being inferior overshadow the desire to be successful in their pursuit. While reading this book you will be able to gain insight on how to optimize your potential. The ultimate goal of "The Passion Within" is for readers to realize that everyone was born with a gift and not to ignore or put aside that gift placed in them, but to recognize their God given abilities to be extraordinary.

    Luna: Wolf Moon continues Ian McDonald's saga of the Five Dragons.A Dragon is dead. Corta Helio, one of the five family corporations that rule the Moon, has fallen. Its riches are divided up among its many enemies, its survivors scattered. Eighteen months have passed. The remaining Helio children, Lucasinho and Luna, are under the protection of the powerful Asamoahs, while Robson, still reeling from witnessing his parent's violent deaths, is now a ward--virtually a hostage--of Mackenzie Metals. And the last appointed heir, Lucas, has vanished from the surface of the moon. Only Lady Sun, dowager of Taiyang, suspects that Lucas Corta is not dead, and more to the point-that he is still a major player in the game. After all, Lucas always was the Schemer, and even in death, he would go to any lengths to take back everything and build a new Corta Helio, more powerful than before. But Corta Helio needs allies, and to find them, the fleeing son undertakes an audacious, impossible journey--to Earth. In an unstable lunar environment, the shifting loyalties and political machinations of each family reach the zenith of their most fertile plots as outright war erupts.Luna Series1. Luna: New Moon2.
