Rising Son
From the author of Avatar (I & II) and Section 31: Cloak, this intense story reveals the much-anticipated fate of Jake Sisko, missing since Avatar Book Two, as well as the long-awaited return of someone missing since the first season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine...Months ago, young Jake Sisko came upon a mysterious prophecy in the ruins of B'hala, one that told of a Son destined to enter the Celestial Temple of the Prophets and return home with a lost Herald. Certain that the ancient text was intended for him, Jake entered the wormhole to bring back his father, Captain Benjamin Sisko—missing since his final, fateful confrontation with Gul Dukat in the Fire Caves of Bajor. But Jake's quest has failed. Or so he believes. Flung across the galaxy by a power beyond his understanding, Jake is rescued by a strange ship with an even stranger alien crew. Joining them on a voyage unlike any he has ever experienced, Jake learns that his search for the truth will lead him to find the last thing he ever expected, and to discoveries far beyond his wildest imaginings.

Colonel Kira Nerys and the survivors -- together with several controversial new officers -- are all who stand against the outbreak of a new war and a terrible doom tied to the unborn child of Captain Benjamin Sisko. Elsewhere, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Starship Enterprise™ make a startling discovery...one that will affect the destiny of an entire civilization and forever change the lives of those aboard Deep Space 9.

Twist of Faith
Uneasy peace. Worlds in flux. Tests of faith. The final episode was only the beginning.The Dominion War is over...or is it? Three months after the Allied victory against the invaders from the Gamma Quadrant, a surprise attack awakens the fear of renewed hostilities. At the same time, a senseless murder sets a space station commander on a path that will test the limits of her faith...while a strange discovery within the plasma storms of the Badlands propels an old soldier toward a rendezvous with destiny. Elsewhere, amidst the ruins of an ancient civilization, a young man is about to embark on a dangerous quest to fill the hole in his life—one left by the loss of his father. So begins the unprecedented, authorized continuation of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine®, springing from the seven-year television odyssey of Captain Benjamin Sisko and his crew aboard a Federation starbase at the edge of the final frontier. Following the serial format and evolving character arcs that were the hallmarks of the TV series, the new Deep Space Nine novels pick up where the show left off, daring to imagine what happened after the final episode. Now the first five tales of that critically acclaimed storyline are collected in one massive volume. Originally published as the two-part Avatar, Abyss, Demons of Air and Darkness, and the novella Horn and Ivory, Twist of Faith revisits the aftermath of the Dominion War, the pivotal planet Bajor, its mysterious connection to the timeless Prophets of the wormhole, as well as the familiar faces, new friends, and uncertain allies whose fates intertwine at the crossroads of the galaxy. With an introduction by New York Times bestselling author David R. George III (Mission: Gamma—Twilight; The Lost Era: Serpents Among the Ruins; the Crucible trilogy), Twist of Faith takes the Deep Space Nine saga to a new level, exploring what was left behind and what awaits beyond.

Imagine being able to know what the people you interact with are thinking without them having to tell you, knowing if they are lying to you, understanding their true intentions, if someone likes you or not, if they have a positive or negative opinion of you, and even anticipating what someone is about to do. As incredible as it may seem, these and many other things can be achieved if you know how to read and interpret people's non-verbal language. This is possible. With the right knowledge, you can begin to develop this ability, especially due to the difficulty of simulating and having complete control over body language, such as gestures, postures, and actions that we make with our bodies.The practical benefits of knowing how to read non-verbal language are enormous. Not only does it allow you to deduce people's thoughts, feelings, intentions, and attitudes, but it also helps you to be more aware of your own use of non-verbal language and thus be able to optimize it to become a more effective communicator, more confident, and even use it to your advantage. Normally, we don't pay attention to what our bodies reflect, and for that same reason, we don't have the ability to read others. I invite you to explore this powerful idea and to recognize the huge potential that this knowledge can bring to your life.
