- Immortal : a novel of the fallen angels / by Ward, J. R.,1969-;
"The Creator invented the game, and the stakes are nothing less than the fate of both the quick and the dead: seven souls, seven crossroads--each an opportunity for salvation or damnation. Coming into this sixth round, reluctant savior Jim Heron has compromised himself, his body and his soul, and even still, he's on the verge of losing everything ... And that includes Sissy, the innocent he freed from Hell. Jim's determined to protect her--but this makes her a weakness the demon Devina can exploit. With Sissy once again in danger, and Jim torn between the game and the woman he's sworn to defend, evil's ready to play dirty and finally claim Jim for her own. As the war comes into its final chapters, humanity's savior is prepared to do anything it takes to win--and that includes embarking on a suicide mission into the very darkest shadows of Purgatory. True love is Jim's only hope for survival--and victory. But can a man with no heart and no soul be saved by something he doesn't believe in?"--Provided by publisher.- Subjects: Paranormal romance stories.; Angels; Deadly sins; Fantasy fiction.; Immortality; Paranormal fiction.; Salvation;

- Hard road : Bernie Guindon and the reign of the Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club / by Edwards, Peter,1956-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The spiritual godfather of Canadian bikers tells the story of his fascinating life. You could call Bernie Guindon the Sonny Barger of Canadian bikers (but not to his face). The founder of Satan's Choice, Guindon led what was in the 1960s the second-largest biker club in the world (after the Hells Angels, which Bernie would join briefly in the early 2000s) to national prominence and international infamy. His life wasn't all bikes and crime. He was also a medalist in boxing for Canada at the Pan Am Games. That tension between the very rough life he was born into and the possibility for success in the straight world (and how aspirations in each fed his success in the other) layer Guindon's story, one of the great untold stories in biker history. Friends from the biker world and Guindon's family have given extensive interviews for Hard Road, including his son, Harley, a convict and outlaw biker himself."--- Subjects: Biographies.; Guindon, Bernie.; Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club.; Gang members; Motorcycle clubs; Organized crime; Motorcycle gangs;

- The longest road : to hell and back again from addiction to advocacy / by Calendino, Joe,author.; Little, Gary,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Recovery is the longest road toward a better future. So says Joe Calendino, former full-patch Hells Angel and now award-winning youth community leader. In The Longest Road, Calendino remembers his journey to rock bottom, when he spiralled out of control, consumed by drugs and alcohol, ending up strung out and desperate in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Now, as executive director of Yo Bro Yo Girl Youth Initiative, it's his mission to protect at-risk youth from that same fate. In The Longest Road, Calendino keeps it raw and real -- he's the first to admit that his path to advocacy has been anything but straight. From the Hells Angels clubhouse to the darkest crack dens to the scene of a recent life-changing accident, Calendino reveals all his remarkable moments of struggle, intervention, recovery and redemption. Written with Calendino's trusted confidant and former high school counsellor Gary Little, and building on their first book together, To Hell and Back, this new memoir shares not just Calendino's story but also the stories of the hidden angels who saved his life and those of the young people he now strives to help. There are families who have lost loved ones to overdose, friends whose habits have landed them in gangs or in jail, and the call to action of a community that needs help, healing and hope -- now more than ever. With this page-turning memoir, Calendino shows he is living proof that sometimes all it takes is someone believing in you to completely change your life."--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Calendino, Joe; Drug addiction; Drug addiction.; Drug addicts;

- Not everybody lives the same way / by Dubois, Jean-Paul,1950-author.; Homel, David,translator.; translation of:Dubois, Jean-Paul,1950-Tous les hommes n'habitent pas le monde de la même façon.English.;
"Narrated by a man held for an unknown crime in a Montreal prison, this "affecting and nostalgic novel of lost happiness" (Agence-France Presse) was the winner of the Prix Goncourt. When the novel starts, Paul Hansen is incarcerated in a large and insalubrious prison on the outskirts of Montreal. He shares his cell with a much-feared Hells Angel called Patrick Horton, who is serving time for murder. Although it is unclear why Paul is in prison, his position as Patrick Horton's cell mate is precarious; he has a knife that could kill him at any moment. An evaluator regularly assesses Paul's behavior, but he shows no remorse for what he has done, and he will not be released until he does. So patiently, he must serve his time. Paul's story is told in alternating chapters, moving between his present incarceration and his life leading to this point. We meet his parents--free-spirited Anna, who is disgraced when her art house cinema shows the scandalous Deep Throat, and Johannes, the pastor of the local church who runs away for a new life in Quebec. We meet his lover, a seaplane pilot called Winona, who takes him up into the cloudless sky away from his penny-pinching, arrogant boss Edouard Sedgwick and the ageing residents of the luxury apartment building he was so diligently the caretaker to for 20 years. Not Everybody Lives the Same Way is a powerfully original and unusual book, whose troubled protagonist leads us to question what it takes to lead a dignified life"--Prix Goncourt for Fiction- Subjects: Novels.; Fathers and sons; Loss (Psychology); Prisoners;

Unfortunately, trouble has a way of finding Perley Gates. This time, it's a trigger-happy trio of horse thieves who take one look at old Possum, young Sonny, and the low-key Perley, and decide they're three very easy targets. But in the Old West, nothing comes easy. Except death... So begins one hell of a showdown. On one side are the forces of evil itself, with notorious gunslinger Spade Devlin gunning for blood. On the other side are a few good men, a town under siege--and a merciless angel of vengeance named Perley Gates...- Subjects: Western fiction.; Ranches; Outlaws;
