Book Description
After more than five decades in Hollywood, Don Bluth, the man behind some of the most iconic animated films ever made, tells his story. Don Bluth never felt like a Donald. So people have always called him Don. A matinee of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs awakened something within him. Despite growing up in rural Texas and Utah, he practiced and worked hard to become an Hollywood animator. And after working alongside his idol Walt Disney, and on films including Sleeping Beauty, The Sword in the Stone, Robin Hood, Winne the Pooh, The Rescuers, and Pete’s Dragon, he realized that the company had changed into something he didn’t necessarily believe in. So made the industry-shocking decision to start his own animation studio. It was from that studio—Don’s studio—that came such award-winning, generation-defining films as The Secret of NIMH, An American Tail, The Land Before Time, All Dogs Go to Heaven, Anastasia, and the video game Dragon’s Lair. Now, after more than half a century in the movie business, Don is ready to tell the story of his life. How his passions for artistry, integrity, and his Mormon faith shaped him into the beloved icon whose creativity, entrepreneurship, and deeply-held beliefs entertained, enthralled, and inspired millions across the globe. Exclusive original art makes this book perfect for fans, cineasts, and anyone looking “somewhere out there” for inspiration and motivation.

In SOMEWHERE OUT THERE: ALIENS AND UFOs, Dr. Meinberg takes the reader on an up-to-date tour of 35 topics that surround the vast subject of Ufology: UFOs, Alien Species (Arcturians, The Blues, The Greys, Little Green Men, The Whites, Nordics, Pleiadians, Praying Mantises, Reptilians, and Shapeshifters), Contact, Close Encounters, Famous People Who Actually Saw UFOs or Aliens, Mass UFO Observations, Schoolyard Encounters, Abductions and Abductees, Have You Been Abducted?, Alien Implants, Men in Black, Animal Mutilations, Crop Circles, Astronauts, The Moon, Mars, Area 51, Secret Bases, NASA, SETI, Computers/AI, and Technology/Reverse Engineering. With our present understanding of the cosmos, we must consider the possibility of other life forms beyond the planet Earth. SOMEWHERE OUT THERE provides a nudge, a push, a shove, to widen readers' awareness. Within these chapters, Dr. Meinberg invites readers to come out of their comfort zones, to enlarge their understanding of the Universe, and simply consider the possibilities. There are references to historical persons, and bizarre situations that most people have never heard of or read about. Varying theories, viewpoints, and topics of debate, are included, regarding the UFO phenomenon. Each issue is intended to evoke critical thinking and logic, while sifting and sorting through the evidence. Readers are cautioned to challenge everything, keeping an open mind, while questioning theories and interpretations. This book is meant to introduce readers to realities and experiences that they might have mistakenly assumed to exist only in fictional stories and films. Remember, the science fiction of our yesterdays have become the science facts of today.

Book Description
'IF YOU LIKE WILBUR SMITH AND TOM CLANCY, YOU'LL LOVE SOMEWHERE OUT THERE' ROWLAND WHITE Max Seager was the best there was. His skills sharpened in the midst of a brutal African civil war, he was at once a policeman, soldier and detective - a tracker of men. He thought he'd left that life behind him, but then he learns that his particular expertise is required again. Two teenage girls have been abducted and are being held to ransom, hidden deep within the Zimbabwean bush that was once his hunting ground. The mother of one of the girls begs him to help and, unable to walk away, Max returns to Africa with a handpicked team of former comrades-in-arms. But it soon becomes clear that nothing is quite what it seems and that if he is able to find the girls, it might only open the door to something far more sinister... 'Lunnon-Wood's feel for Africa leaps off the page in this tough, uncompromising thriller' Rowland White IF YOU LIKE WILBUR SMITH, ANDY MCNAB, FREDERICK FORSYTH AND JACK HIGGINS THEN YOU'LL LOVE MIKE LUNNON-WOOD. *** SOMEWHERE OUT THERE is the first book Mike Lunnon-Wood wrote but has never previously been published. Mike passed away in 2008 and the manuscript was only discovered by his son Piers some years later along with another unpublished thriller which will be published shortly. Mike is the author of six other outstanding thrillers available from Silvertail Books: Let Not The Deep, King's Shilling, Congo Blue, Long Reach, Dark Rose and Angel Seven.
