Book excerpt: Be careful when you get what you ask for… Especially when others believe they deserve the prize more than you. And some will do everything necessary to get what they want, even murder. Duncan’s confidence has failed to account for a paranoid High Priest, a jealous King unhappy with the way the people have taken to this stranger, and a certain ambitious Priest who wants nothing better than to get rid of the High Priest and Duncan at the same time. Unfortunately, Vix, Gambria’s High Priest, has a more immediate problem. He must eliminate Duncan before the contest reveals Vix is a fraud. It’s time to call in assassins and eliminate this obnoxious threat. And where is Alexis when you need her? Unhappy with a woman as Berserker, especially one who is untested in battle and still learning the language, King Diad tells his Battle Commander to place her on a weak flank against the Rugian army. Hopefully, they can take care of the problem and Gambria can find a new Berserker. Then there’s Bradwr, King Diad’s brother, who believes Diad is no longer worthy of being king and has determined that the title is now within his reach. This is a revamping of a former series titled Wolf 359. The Misfit series is geared to a wider audience and age groups.

Book excerpt: A science-fantasy adventure series! With their spaceship destroyed, the remaining two survivors of a failed colonization mission jettison down to a planet with the hope they can survive. Duncan, a bookish linguist, and Alexis, a beautiful gladiator in the prime of her career, suddenly find themselves drawn into the struggles between two warring kingdoms. Their fortunes improve when Alexis’ combat skills are discovered, and she is challenged by the nation’s berserker who underestimates his opponent and pays dearly for it. Yet no sooner is she awarded his position, title, and wealth when she is called upon to lead the nation’s warriors in the first full scale battle she has ever experienced, against an enemy who take no prisoners. With the very real possibility that Alexis might not survive the battle, Duncan is left alone to fend for himself. Calling himself a Wizard of the Universe, he is brought before the Council of Prelates to explain his obvious heresy. Deftly answering their questions, he throws caution to the wind and challenges the nation’s High Priest to a contest of divine favor. The one who calls down thunder and lightning from the sky is the chosen one of God and becomes the nation’s High Priest. The loser dies. This is a revamping of a former series titled Wolf 359. The Misfit series is geared to a wider audience and age groups.

Meanwhile, hoping TTI will finally accept that they will never come back and leave them alone, Erik and Tone settle down on the farm that Jarl Halfdan has given him. Unfortunately, Jarl Thorsten believes he has a claim to the farm and decides to exercise that claim by sending battle-hardened men to challenge Erik to individual combat. Much to Thorsten’s dismay, Erik not only defeats all challengers, he manages to gain another farm deep in Thorsten’s jarldom. Thorsten’s solution? Kidnap Tone. Just as Tone risked her life to find him, Erik must now risk his life to rescue the only woman he has ever truly loved.

Book Synopsis A Long Way Gone by : Ishmael Beah

Download or read book A Long Way Gone written by Ishmael Beah. This book was released on 2007-02-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My new friends have begun to suspect I haven’t told them the full story of my life. “Why did you leave Sierra Leone?” “Because there is a war.” “You mean, you saw people running around with guns and shooting each other?” “Yes, all the time.” “Cool.” I smile a little. “You should tell us about it sometime.” “Yes, sometime.” This is how wars are fought now: by children, hopped-up on drugs and wielding AK-47s. Children have become soldiers of choice. In the more than fifty conflicts going on worldwide, it is estimated that there are some 300,000 child soldiers. Ishmael Beah used to be one of them. What is war like through the eyes of a child soldier? How does one become a killer? How does one stop? Child soldiers have been profiled by journalists, and novelists have struggled to imagine their lives. But until now, there has not been a first-person account from someone who came through this hell and survived. In A Long Way Gone, Beah, now twenty-five years old, tells a riveting story: how at the age of twelve, he fled attacking rebels and wandered a land rendered unrecognizable by violence. By thirteen, he’d been picked up by the government army, and Beah, at heart a gentle boy, found that he was capable of truly terrible acts. This is a rare and mesmerizing account, told with real literary force and heartbreaking honesty.
