In this collection of Cosmicist-Humanist "sermons" from the Church of Cosmic Indifference, Rev. Randolph Partain utilizes Lovecraftian Weird fiction to encourage readers to embrace their potential to create lives of purpose and meaning. With an irreverent, tongue-in-cheek approach to spirituality, these empowering lessons superimpose a Humanist lens onto the stories of H. P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Lin Carter, and other authors who created Cthulhu lore. The chapters have been adapted and updated from material originally released on the Cosmic Indifference Podcast, which has been called "a strongly loving perspective, expressed with clear and reasonable words." As one listener commented, "This is so completely against what Lovecraft intended his work to say, and I am ecstatic that someone has entirely reversed the original message." With a blend of insight, humor, and optimism, Rev. Randolph connects Humanist ideals with Lovecraftian fiction, engaging fans of the Cthulhu Mythos as well as readers who have yet to tumble down that peculiar rabbit hole.

Moody, magnetic, and impossible to read, Harley has made a name for himself on and off the slopes. Once a rising snowboarder with a reckless streak, now he's the ski team lead at Powder White, doing everything he can to keep things under control, including himself. The last thing he needs is a new recruit with fire in her eyes and chaos in her wake. But Lola's not easy to ignore. And Harley's not nearly as in control as he looks. As the season deepens, so d...
