Book excerpt: The children of world leaders are held hostage in an attempt to keep the peace in this “slyly humorous, starkly thought-provoking” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) novel. Greta is a Duchess and a Crown Princess. She is also a Child of Peace, a hostage held by the de facto ruler of the world, the great Artificial Intelligence, Talis. This is how the game is played: if you want to rule, you must give one of your children as a hostage. Start a war and your hostage dies. The system has worked for centuries. Parents don’t want to see their children murdered. Greta will be free if she can make it to her eighteenth birthday. Until then she is prepared to die with dignity, if necessary. But everything changes when Elian arrives at the Precepture. He’s a hostage from a new American alliance, and he defies the machines that control every part of their lives—and is severely punished for it. His rebellion opens Greta’s eyes to the brutality of the rules they live under, and to the subtle resistance of her companions. And Greta discovers her own quiet power. Then Elian’s country declares war on Greta’s and invades the prefecture, taking the hostages hostage. Now the great Talis is furious, and coming himself to deliver punishment. Which surely means that Greta and Elian will be killed...unless Greta can think of a way to break all the rules.

She and her husband George have a good marriage, and she's looking forward to spending more time with him in a few years, when he retires from his electrical business. Greta's dedicated her life to her family, and just this once she's determined to have a Norman Rockwell Thanksgiving. Her only obstacles are her two grown children.Greta doesn't know how she produced two such dissimilar personalities. Alan, the oldest, is a financial analyst living in a big house in a pricey Boston suburb, with his remote wife Isabel and their adorable five-year-old, Henry. Greta and George get called for plenty of babysitting, but they almost never see Alan. And Greta's not sure Henry sees much of his father either. What could her son find more important than his family?And Emily went from computer sales to goat farming, a switch Greta is trying to understand. But Emily is tending her demanding animals and living a monastic life in a small farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. How is she ever going to meet someone if she can't leave her goats?Emily thinks Alan is a self-indulgent bore and Alan thinks Emily is a clueless idealist, opinions that disrupt every family gathering. The only person who seems happy when they're all together is little Henry. So this Thanksgiving, Greta has spoken to everyone ahead of time about the kind of holiday she expects. But their family get-together doesn't go the way she wants, and their next year isn't going to go according to plan either. When Greta starts digging under the surface, she discovers illness, addiction, and depression, but also unexpected talents, new relationships, and pathways to reconciliation. The next Thanksgiving they face is going to be radically different.

Greta is a little girl who lives in a beautiful forest threatened by Giants. When the Giants first came to the forest, they chopped down trees to make houses. Then they chopped down more trees and made even bigger homes. The houses grew into towns and the towns grew into cities, until now there is hardly any forest left. Greta knows she has to help the animals who live in the forest, but how? Luckily, Greta has an idea… A section at the back explains that, in reality, the fight against the “giants” isn’t over and explains how you can help Greta in her fight.

Download or read book Max the blind guy written by Mark Beyer and published by Siren & Muse Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maximilian Ruth daydreams in colors which his eyes can no longer see. His wife is leading them on a European tour: Prague, Vienna, Salzburg, and Venice. Greta Ruth calls this trip their “last hurrah.” She hasn't had the best from 40 years with Max. But Max takes their life differently: marriage is an affair of more than the heart’s journey. This pair of American originals have known passion, riches, and sorrow. Today, these roads lead them through Europe’s famed cities, but Greta wonders if the plan will see her through to the promised “champagne on the Grand Canal.” Their Elite Travel tour-mates are getting on each other’s nerves. They are characters found next door, on everyday streets, under black-eye days, and across lost-memory nights. The highlights and sights, the posh lunches, the gamy conversation over drinks in the bar – and of course the "tour friendships" – all make their faux-camaraderie sometimes combative but never boring. A story rife with modern perils – too much time, too much money, just enough libido, secrets revealed – Max and Greta Ruth don’t wait for what the future may bring. "Max, the blind guy" is a complex, emotional story of art, ego, love, and marriage. Beyer’s nuanced story brings to life fictional characters from America and Europe as this group of recalcitrant travelers make their way travel through lovely cities and desperate thoughts. "Precocious. Provocative. Poignant. MAX, THE BLIND GUY is built like an intricate mansion of dozens of opulently adorned rooms, secret passageways and windows that open up to the bright and vibrant world beyond. The story explores the delights, disappointments, disturbances, and distractions of love, lust, and the desire to get to the next place. Language play, humor, despair, and the engagement of a complicated community of characters, 'Max' brings to mind the work of his literary predecessors such as Nabokov, Marquez, Dickens, and Dostoevsky." - Patricia Ann McNair, author, THE TEMPLE OF AIR
