In a galaxy where clones are little more than slaves . . . What happens when a clone defies her owners and goes off script? The first book in an exciting new sci-fi series, A Desperate Gamble introduces an unlikely hero: a clone who dares the unthinkable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Kanti is one of the thousands of teenagers trapped inside a dome for a cruel government experiment. He is expected to form a functioning government inside the dome by the Free Nation Party, one that will be just like the FNP to show the rest of the US that they are the best party to vote for. Tom and his allies form an Empire to try to defy the Free Nationers, but have failed in their attempts to do so. With few options at his disposal, Tom risks it all in one crazy attempt to escape the dome, with deadly consequences if he fails. Tom's Empire is not the only government inside the dome. Several large factions, including the Twin Pines Republic and People's Federation, also try to finish the goals that the FNP set in exchange for their freedom. Growing resentment from the rest of the teenagers leads to a new government being formed, one that is stronger and much more vengeful compared to the previous power-brokers inside the dome. All of these governments bet that their strategy will get them out of the dome, but only one could triumph. Even among the Free Nation Party there is infighting on the fate of this experiment. Both Lt. Col. Rickley and Maj. Perez wager their military careers, and their lives, on who can successfully complete Project Patriot and win the favor from the FNP. Will any of these groups win the prize they are seeking, or will all of them go bust? Find out as the war of words and guns collide in the final part of the Project Patriot trilogy!

Bow Street's Best series, Book Three Benjamin Frake of Bow Street is accustomed to solving murder cases involving members of the highest levels of society-and seeing romance blossom between his suspects. Romance for himself is the last thing on his mind, until he meets Annie Gooden, a maid at one of London's elite private gaming hells. Unfortunately for Frake's wistful dreams of love, Annie is the primary suspect for his latest case. Besides having more motive, she's found standing over the victim's body, holding the murder weapon. Frake's logic tells him she is probably guilty but his instincts, and his heart, tell him otherwise. His attempts to win her confidence are roundly rebuffed. Annie has a very good reason not to love or trust Runners and she has no intention of changing that now. For the sake of his heart, and possibly Annie's life, Frake realizes this is one case he must solve quickly.

Book excerpt: The prizewinning historian and bestselling author of D-Day, Stalingrad, and The Battle of Arnhem reconstructs the Battle of the Bulge in this riveting new account On December 16, 1944, Hitler launched his ‘last gamble’ in the snow-covered forests and gorges of the Ardennes in Belgium, believing he could split the Allies by driving all the way to Antwerp and forcing the Canadians and the British out of the war. Although his generals were doubtful of success, younger officers and NCOs were desperate to believe that their homes and families could be saved from the vengeful Red Army approaching from the east. Many were exultant at the prospect of striking back. The allies, taken by surprise, found themselves fighting two panzer armies. Belgian civilians abandoned their homes, justifiably afraid of German revenge. Panic spread even to Paris. While some American soldiers, overwhelmed by the German onslaught, fled or surrendered, others held on heroically, creating breakwaters which slowed the German advance. The harsh winter conditions and the savagery of the battle became comparable to the Eastern Front. In fact the Ardennes became the Western Front’s counterpart to Stalingrad. There was terrible ferocity on both sides, driven by desperation and revenge, in which the normal rules of combat were breached. The Ardennes—involving more than a million men—would prove to be the battle which finally broke the back of the Wehrmacht. In this deeply researched work, with striking insights into the major players on both sides, Antony Beevor gives us the definitive account of the Ardennes offensive which was to become the greatest battle of World War II.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few infantry regiments in the Civil War compiled a more distinguished record than the Fifth Missouri. The unique blending of fiery Irish Confederates from St. Louis with rural pro-Southern Missourians forged an unshakable esprit de corps, making the unit the crack infantry regiment in the western sector. Most of Colonel James C. McCown's troops were young men in their 20s, and their good health and physical conditioning allowed them to carry out their "shock" missions throughout the region. From the perspective of the common soldiers and the unit's leaders the activities and battles of the Fifth Missouri are recounted here.
