[ad_1]
Stevens Rhodes shares, “Job’s Wives is for all who have endured and survived intense suffering and wondered why.
“The fictional stories of Job’s distinctive family incorporate happy times demonstrating their love for each other contrasted against disaster, grief, loss, dying, and death. We mourn with them in their losses but hold our breath when anticipating their return to normalcy as we long for and expect recovery, redemption, and restoration.
“Once a wealthy king of Edom, Job suffered in every way imaginable. He lost everything, including his health. He and his first wife faced the immeasurable challenge of the heartbreaking sudden deaths of their ten children. Learn the tragic truth of her fate.
“We grieve for her when we contemplate her unfathomable dilemma and achieve empathy as we lament alongside her, gaining compassionate understanding. As we commiserate with her, we learn to recognize and consider other people’s grief responses and entertain awareness of our own.
“Then we meet Job’s second wife and his second set of ten children. Examine a plausible scenario for how the biblical book of Job was preserved and what may have happened to him from a distinctive perspective through the viewpoint of his brother and his grieving wives.
“All of society is seeking a hero, someone with answers who will help us cope with and provide potential meaning to our private losses. We search for examples to inspire us to maintain our integrity as we struggle to rise above perilous damages to our individual lives.
“Job’s Wives offers companionship to anyone who is struggling with extreme loss and adversity. This epic saga provides a way to personally identify with tragic loss and glean empathy for self and others while discovering techniques to cope with intense losses while gaining hope for restoration.”
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Valerie Stevens Rhodes’s new book offers a message of hope and God’s comfort.
Glen E. Spaugh, City Manager of Gordon, Nebraska shares, “Intriguing, heartbreaking, informative, and realistic. More than a novel, Job’s Wives is a true reflection of the journey through grief and the reality for those who are left with the remnants of life when others have died. We are shown internal sufferings from external circumstances and the weight of the pain and sorrow that may be felt. The author truly displays her background in grief counseling by covering the tragedy of loss and how we react, then revealing the wonder of healing in an excellent illustration of restoration.”
Consumers can purchase “Job’s Wives” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

Ryan Gregory has published "Blood on Canvas: Between Bells," a work of sports fiction that approaches professional boxing through the eyes of a coach rather than a fighter, according to the author’s publisher.
Gregory writes from inside the sport. He founded Cache Valley Boxing in his hometown of Logan, Utah, and organized the area’s first registered boxing event in 2019. His qualifications include USA Boxing Silver Level Coach status and Licensed Contestant Manager credentials, accumulated across approximately twenty years of coaching at both the amateur and professional level, per the announcement.
The book is described by its publisher as a departure from the familiar underdog arc that typically defines boxing stories. Instead, it follows a coach managing fighters’ egos, ambitions, and the business pressures that operate behind the scenes of the sport. The publisher’s description frames the novel as an attempt to show the mechanics of professional boxing, the decisions coaches are forced to make, and the gap between the sport’s public image and its day-to-day reality.
"My goal has always been to bring reality to the often fantasized world of boxing," Gregory said in a statement accompanying the release. "This book is my attempt to entertain readers while pulling back the curtain on how the business truly works, based on real events from my own experience."
"Blood on Canvas" was published through Page Publishing and is available through bookstores and major online retailers, including Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees the coach’s-eye framing as the more interesting bet here: boxing fiction usually sits in the fighter’s corner, and a story told from the person throwing in the towel is a different kind of authenticity claim to test against the page.

New Novel Follows a South Carolina Man’s Obsession With a Cosmic Hum and a ‘Theory of the Universe’
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
W. H. Märchen has a new science fiction novel out, "Are You the One?", centered on Yaiouel "Yo" Elijah Johnson, a young man from Greenville, South Carolina, who becomes consumed by a mysterious cosmic hum only he seems to perceive. Studio CarryOnHarry received word of the release this week.
According to the announcement, Yo’s fixation grows into a search for what he calls a "theory of the universe" — a fractal model in which human consciousness mirrors a cosmic neural network, with past universes seeding new ones and minds echoing across galaxies. The novel sets that search against a backdrop of social fracture, with Yo’s perception positioned as a possible, if improbable, route back to collective connection.
Three companions join him along the way, per the announcement: Amelia, described as psychologically astute; Zahir, a spiritually grounded presence; and Tony, an ex-Navy drifter carrying his own unresolved history. The publisher describes the book as blending coming-of-age structure with existential questions about consciousness, loss, and survival.
Märchen spent roughly 25 years at the National Institutes of Health, working across research projects with scientists from multiple disciplines, and is a partially disabled U.S. Navy veteran holding degrees in electrical engineering and a master of science. Per the release, Märchen initially developed the story as a creative pursuit while recovering, and that his scientific background and respect for diverse faith traditions shaped the book’s handling of its spiritual and existential material.
"This book emerged from my desire to explore how science, spirituality, and human connection intersect," Märchen said in the announcement. "I wanted to ask whether our deepest perceptions of reality might be pointing us toward something we’ve overlooked."
"Are You the One?" is published through Page Publishing and is available at bookstores and through Apple iTunes, Amazon, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
A book pitched as hard science grounded in one man’s real research career, wrapped around a premise this cosmic, is an unusual combination — Studio CarryOnHarry is curious whether Märchen’s NIH background gives the novel’s speculative physics more weight than the average genre entry, or whether that’s beside the point for a story this interior.
