Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something is killing Salla Saar. Ever since using the power of the Eyes of the One locked within him to locate Tempusalist and put an end to the 13th Paragon, the attacks have come, powerful and acute. Sometimes it’s as minor as a blackout. Other times, it’s as if he’s being broken to pieces from the inside out, and the next episode could be his last. He suspects it has something to do with the Eyes of the One, but why has their power turned on him now? Once in the custody of the Majdi Order, the peace-keeping sect that has been hunting him since Tempusalist, his fate is decided: Salla Saar is too dangerous to walk free. That declaration grants him a sentence to the House of Falling Rain—a retraining facility for wayward Majdi. Yet among the misfits of the Order housed in these decrepit corridors, there is another presence lurking, something filled with a dark and terrible purpose.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something is killing Salla Saar. Ever since using the power of the Eyes of the One locked within him to eliminate the threat of Gargazant Ikahn at Tempusalist, the attacks have come, powerful and acute. Sometimes, he walks away with little more than a blackout. Other times, it is as though there is a force inside determined to break him apart a piece at a time, leaving him wishing for the pain, the uncertainty-for simply everything to end. These attacks have something to do with the Eyes of the One-he is convinced of that-but why has their power turned on him now? After a near-fatal episode, Salla awakens in the custody of the Majdi Order, the peace-keeping sect that has made it their mission to capture him in order to seal away the power of the Eyes. His fate has been decided, it seems: he is declared too dangerous to walk free. Even if he manages to survive these violent fractures of his mind and body, he might never set foot outside the walls of a prison again. Once locked away in the decrepit bowels of a retraining facility for wayward men and women of the Order called the House of Falling Rain, Salla finds a glimmer of hope in the darkness of this place. There are Majdi on the inside working in secret to halt the forces within intent on destroying him. But there is something else inside these old corridors with them, something filled with a dark and malevolent purpose...

Book excerpt: I Am Have you ever felt you are meant for some great purpose? That perhaps no one can see what you are truly worth? I am not talking about money or talents or cutting the grade. Being able to change your future through the past. Greatly affecting the past to where you will be remembered. I have thoughts that make me believe I am truly different. My bequest, to search for magical powers and special talents. What I do with myself in a dream will affect my future. Faced with making my own reality by growing from my past I must protect, value, and preserve something most precious. How do I know this? In the way they look at me, even how they do not look at me. I read their eyes, knowing they rely on me to make the cut. That final cut for the play. That last chess move checkmate. That final step across home plate, the winning score. I look into the guardian eyes; I must not back down. My purpose is much greater than life itself. I am. In the dimension between a dream world and reality there is magic that can only be learned by those predestined. Special powers given at birth come with a price, stronger and more powerful than any human can handle on their own. There is a test for each power, but unknown to each individual, they must earn that gift and share it unselfishly with others, instead of losing it to greater powers. To the human eye, these powers are hidden, to those trained in the arts, no power goes unnoticed. Elise is of age to earn her special powers, ones that she is unaware she holds. Obstacles come into her path. Who can she trust? Will she be able to stop the evil following her and fulfill her prophecy?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A rare historical insight into the tragic changes taking place in Palestine.” —Jimmy Carter From one of Palestine’s leading writers, a lyrical, elegiac account of one man’s wanderings through the landscape he loves—once pristine, now forever changed by settlements and walls—updated with a new afterword by the author. “I often come to walk in these hills,” I said to the man who was doing all the talking and seemed to be the commander. “In fact I was once here with my wife, it was 1999, and some of your soldiers shot at us.” “It was over on that side,” the soldier pointed out. “I was there,” he said, smiling. When Raja Shehadeh first started hill walking in Palestine, in the late 1970s, he was not aware that he was traveling through a vanishing landscape. In recent years, his hikes have become less than bucolic and sometimes downright dangerous. That is because his home is Ramallah, on the Palestinian West Bank, and the landscape he traverses is now the site of a tense standoff between his fellow Palestinians and settlers newly arrived from Israel. In this original and evocative book, we accompany Raja on six walks taken between 1978 and 2006. The earlier forays are peaceful affairs, allowing our guide to meditate at length on the character of his native land, a terrain of olive trees on terraced hillsides, luxuriant valleys carved by sacred springs, carpets of wild iris and hyacinth and ancient monasteries built more than a thousand years ago. Shehadeh's love for this magical place saturates his renderings of its history and topography. But latterly, as seemingly endless concrete is poured to build settlements and their surrounding walls, he finds the old trails are now impassable and the countryside he once traversed freely has become contested ground. He is harassed by Israeli border patrols, watches in terror as a young hiking companion picks up an unexploded missile and even, on one occasion when accompanied by his wife, comes under prolonged gunfire. Amid the many and varied tragedies of the Middle East, the loss of a simple pleasure such as the ability to roam the countryside at will may seem a minor matter. But in Palestinian Walks, Raja Shehadeh's elegy for his lost footpaths becomes a heartbreaking metaphor for the deprivations of an entire people estranged from their land.
