A Cat’s Full Nine $192.89 Virgil Shoop, once a world class drug courier, has brought his wife Maudine (a troll-like, ruined user already alive too long many times over, but not too far gone to have some plans of her own) to Costa Rica to kill her.Virgil has now lost his nerve — except as to the matter of killing Maudine — and hopes for gun(s) and insurance as fringe benefits from his new employer, a massive drug Ministry, building to capture the world market with an avante garde line of paraphernalia, on whose behalf he has managed to smuggle in eagerly awaited master models inside the bottoms of his many cats’ carrier litter fills.Counterprotagonist hero (?) surveillant Rick July arrives to face the Ministry challenge — bringing to his task a mercenary’s detachment that evolves into warrior’s zeal as, once under the spell of a Costa Rican beauty, heart and humanity bind him to the conflict.In the course of fleeing the scene after executing an incidental murder ( it was an accident — almost! ) Virgil stumbles across the inspiration for a technique to commit the original, undetectable, perfect killing!Spawned from an epic imagination and incisive wit, this sometimes harrowing, sometimes lyrical, consistently obscene and often funny account of a multi-level battle wherein incendiary forces overlay the lure and lore of an enchanted land will deliver up every emotion of the fullnine

A Spiritual Journey Through Poetry With Marion Woods $3.99 Maybe once or twice in our lives, God grants us the high honor of meeting someone special-someone who walks so closely with Christ that -for the moment-we are sure that we are walking and talking with our Savior. That is what happened when many years ago God allowed my path to cross that of Marion Woods. From that first encounter, like so many others, I knew that Marion was someone very special. His love of God, his passion and compassion for God’s children were so clearly evident and contagious.From then on, I have treasured each moment God has given us together. I urge our mission team members to “lean in close” to drink in every word Marion has to share with us. Likewise, I spend every free moment sitting as close as I can-drinking in every bit of wisdom, every ounce of inspiration and every drop of laughter.God grants us these rare gems only so often and I thank God for the gift of Marion Woods.Pull up a chair, sip a cup of Costa Rican coffee and be prepared to feel God’s presence as Marion takes you on a walk with the Savior.Rev.

Amphibians and Reptiles of LA Selva, Costa Rica, and the Caribbean Slope $32.95 To those who have carried out research at La Selva, as well as for the serious layperson or even a first-time ecotourist, this book will be a delight. Many of these species will be seen along forest trails or in clearings nearly every day. The beauty of this splendid guide is its concise but authoritative coverage. Guyer and Donnelly have been carrying out research at La Selva for more than 25 years and have contributed much new information on the lives of these animals. A great strength is the series of keys based primarily on live coloration for rapid and accurate identification in the field. The added value is that the book covers 90% of the amphibians and reptiles found in the Caribbean lowlands from northeastern Honduras to and including Bocas del Toro Province, Panama. In sum, my words for this book are: ‘Mighty Fine’! –Jay M. Savage, author of The Amphibians and Reptiles of Costa Rica A 40-year intensive look, precisely what we all wished we had had when we first stepped into the Neotropical rainforest. Cleanly written, in a language easily accessible to the citizen naturalist . . . . and coupled with the essential many good color photos, this book is THE herpetological starting point for any naturalist, biodiversity manager, and scientist exploring lowland Central American rainforest. It superbly complements Savage’s country-wide coverage. –Daniel H. Janzen, editor of Costa Rican Natural History This book is an important contribution to our understanding of the herpetofauna of one of the world’s foremost tropical field stations. It represents an essential step toward easy field identification of an important group of tropical vertebrates. It will serve as a stimulusand set the standard, not only for herpetologists, but for students of other groups interested in producing easily used, attractive guides to local faunas and floras. –Don E. Wilson, Senior Scientist, Smithsonian Institution, and Chairman of the Board, Organization for Tropical Studie

Animals Described In 1838 $14.14 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: Turquoise-Browed Motmot, Phyllocrania, Eared Quetzal, Varied Bunting, Pandalus Borealis, Royal Spoonbill, Hyloniscus Riparius, Polymixia Nobilis, Blackspotted Catshark, Bluespotted Cornetfish. Excerpt: The Turquoise-browed Motmot (Eumomota superciliosa) also called Torogoz by the inhabitants of El Salvador and Guardabarranco in Nicaragua; is a colourful, medium-sized bird of the motmot family, Momotidae. It inhabits Central America from south-east Mexico (mostly the Yucatán Peninsula), to Costa Rica, where it is common and not considered threatened. It lives in fairly open habitats such as forest edge, gallery forest and scrubland. It is more conspicuous than other motmots, often perching in the open on wires and fences. From these perches it scans for prey, such as insects and small reptiles. White eggs (3-6) are laid in a long tunnel nest in an earth bank or sometimes in a quarry or fresh-water well. Turquoise-browed Motmot in Costa Rican Pacific Dry Forests (photographed by Leonardo C. Fleck)The bird is approximately 34 cm long and weighs about 65 grams. It has a mostly green body with a rufous back and belly. There is a bright blue stripe above the eye and a blue-bordered black patch on the throat. The flight feathers and upperside of the tail are blue. The tips of the tail feathers are shaped like rackets and the bare feather shafts are longer than in other motmots. Although it is often said that motmots pluck the barbs off their tail to create the racketed shape, this is not true; the barbs are weakly attached and fall off due to abrasion with substrates and with routine preening. Unlike most bird species, where only males express elaborate traits, the Turquoise-browed Motmot expresses the extraordinary racketed tail in both sexes. Re… More:
