Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never fall in love with your knight in shining armor... Even though he can't step foot out of his house, Noah King's sole purpose in life is to help people. He created the Ark as a sanctuary for animals and people alike, and it's not surprising that when I'm at my lowest ebb, he's the one who rides in on his white horse and rescues me. But now I'm in a terrible dilemma. Since his wife died giving birth to their baby - who also died - Noah's been a recluse. The last thing he needs in his life is a woman who's eight months' pregnant, alone, and homeless. Of course he's going to want to help me. I know I mustn't mistake kindness and friendship for real love. And I really don't want to be one of life's victims. I want to get myself back on my feet and create a good life for the baby. I don't want to cause Noah pain by stirring up old memories. And I don't want him to feel pity for me. I know I should walk away. But it's strange how it's only when someone shows you kindness that you realize how empty your life has been. Oh God. I'm desperately in love with him. And now the baby is days away from coming, and I've literally nowhere to go. What am I going to do?

Parthia is gripped by civil war. One king vying for the throne, desperate for help, welcomes an alliance from an unlikely source: a man claiming to be Nero, the dethroned Roman emperor. Meanwhile, young Gaius wishes he could spend his summer on the Bay of Naples amongst his books. Instead Pliny, the famous admiral, has sent him to befriend the nephew of Ulpius, the mysterious blind senator from Spain. A man Pliny does not trust. But when a Parthian hostage is nearly killed, days before Parthian emissaries are expected, and as rumours of the False Nero entering the land reaches Rome, Gaius and Pliny race to learn how these events are connected. As the political intrigue comes to a head, something happens that only the mysterious clairvoyant Sibyl could have foreseen: Mount Vesuvius erupts, and black ash fills the sky . . .

Miss this at your peril' Ben Kane 'Marvellous . . . an astonishing tale' Sunday Express 'Extraordinary first novel... the best bits of Roman history but with an original new twist!'

Download or read book Daughter of Persia written by Sattareh Farman Farmaian and published by Crown. This book was released on 2006-06-27 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate and honest chronicle of the everyday life of Iranian women over the past century “A lesson about the value of personal freedom and what happens to a nation when its people are denied the right to direct their own destiny. This is a book Americans should read.” —Washington Post The fifteenth of thirty-six children, Sattareh Farman Farmaian was born in Iran in 1921 to a wealthy and powerful shazdeh, or prince, and spent a happy childhood in her father’s Tehran harem. Inspired and empowered by his ardent belief in education, she defied tradition by traveling alone at the age of twenty-three to the United States to study at the University of Southern California. Ten years later, she returned to Tehran and founded the first school of social work in Iran. Intertwined with Sattareh’s personal story is her unique perspective on the Iranian political and social upheaval that have rocked Iran throughout the twentieth century, from the 1953 American-backed coup that toppled democratic premier Mossadegh to the brutal regime of the Shah and Ayatollah Khomeini’s fanatic and anti-Western Islamic Republic. In 1979, after two decades of tirelessly serving Iran’s neediest, Sattareh was arrested as a counterrevolutionary and branded an imperialist by Ayatollah Khomeini’s radical students. Daughter of Persia is the remarkable story of a woman and a nation in the grip of profound change.

Download or read book The Last King written by Michael Curtis Ford and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the Romans, the greatest enemy the Republic ever faced was not the Goths or Huns, nor even Hannibal, but rather a ferocious and brilliant king on the distant Black Sea: Mithridates Eupator VI of Pontus, known to history as Mithridates the Great. At age eleven, Mithridates inherited a small mountain kingdom of wild tribesmen, which his wicked mother governed in his place. Sweeping to power at age twenty-one, he proved to be a military genius and quickly consolidated various fiefdoms under his command. Since Rome also had expansionist designs in this region, bloody conflict was inevitable. Over forty years, Rome sent its greatest generals to contain Mithridates and gained tenuous control over his empire only after suffering a series of devastating defeats at the hands of this cunning and ruthless king. Each time Rome declared victory, Mithridates considered it merely a strategic retreat, and soon came roaring back with a more powerful army than before. Bursting with heroic battle scenes and eloquent storytelling, Michael Curtis Ford has crafted a riveting novel of the ancient world and resurrected one of history's greatest warriors.
