Travels with Puff: A Gentle Game of Life and Death

Travels4“If I’ve learned one lesson in all my days, it’s this: If we want adventure in our lives, nobody’s going to make it happen but us.” Richard Bach

In the tradition of John Steinbeck’s Travels with Charley, and his own bestseller Illusions Richard Bach’s Travels with Puff recounts his journey from Florida to Washington state in a small seaplane he christened “Puff.” With the humor, wisdom and insight that could only come from one of the world’s favorite writers, Travels with Puff challenges our ideas of fate and our futures and asks us how can we prepare for the emergencies in our own lives? Can we ever really be safe? And … is being safe always what we want?

Richard Bach’s inspirational classic Jonathan Livingston Seagull is one of the few books that dominated the #1 spot on the New York Times Bestseller List for two consecutive years. With over 50,000,000 copies of his books sold, Bach remains one of the world’s most beloved authors. A former US Air Force fighter pilot and latter-day barnstorming pilot, Bach continues to be an avid aviator-author, exploring and chronicling the joys and freedom of flying. www.richardbach.com



One Kid at a Time

One_Kid3One Kid at a Time is both the heartwarming true story of an abandoned, beaten and forgotten boy who was, against all odds, adopted by a single parent, and a stinging indictment of our country’s foster care and adoption system.

“It would be easy for a memoir dealing with this subject to veer into an angry, ranting outburst, but Dekker’s restrained writing conveys the chaos with refined dignity. …. Dekker is refreshingly honest about his emotions and fears. He comes across as reasonable and in control, even in his darkest moments of doubt, which makes the story all the more poignant and inspiring. A candid, charismatic glimpse into the ups and downs of a blossoming adoptive father–son duo.” Kirkus Reviews

Jake Dekker is a successful businessman and writer. He spent more than two years representing children as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) and regularly advocates for child welfare and foster care reform. He and his son live in the Pacific Northwest. www.jakedekker.com


Dangerous Game

Dangerous3When Eric Hunter and his best friend stumble across a skeleton in the forests of Eastern Washington, their lives are forever changed. Unknowingly, the two men have become entangled in a web of death and destruction aimed at reestablishing Hitler’s Reich in the United States.

“This book is adventure, mystery and suspense at its best. I was pulled into the story immediately upon reading the first page, and my interest never lagged throughout the read.  This is an amazing story, well thought out and full of great suspense. And do you know what scares me?  It isn’t as farfetched as it may seem to be. I think we will have a sequel to this one in the near future. Great book, great read!” Midwest Book Review
