Book excerpt: Bodo Tietz, born in 1938, recalls the Berlin of his childhood and the deprivation of the post-war years in the capital. But he also remembers that overpowering sense of a city re-awakening to a new and brighter future. With the money they earned with their market stall mother Charlotte and young Bodo kept the family going. He discovered his enthusiasm for commerce in much the same way as he discovered his love of opera and athletics. Bodo wanted to go into business. He became a real "Schenker" guy and gained further experience of the forwarding business in ten other firms before finally setting up his own company, terra. Bodo Tietz takes and likes people for what they are. This is something he has come to accept. But there was one thing this entrepreneur could never come to accept: It can not be done! These words will still have Bodo Tietz shaking his head today. You have to be inventive and determined. You need the will to persevere. Then no task is insurmountable. This is also something to be learnt from this unique book. With a page-by-page running history of world events spanning the years 1938 to 2016.

Book excerpt: “I haven't read anything that has moved me this much since Wonder.” —Jennifer Niven, author of All the Bright Places A space-obsessed boy and his dog, Carl Sagan, take a journey toward family, love, hope, and awe in this funny and moving novel for fans of Counting by 7s, Walk Two Moons, and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. 11-year-old Alex Petroski loves space and rockets, his mom, his brother, and his dog Carl Sagan—named for his hero, the real-life astronomer. All he wants is to launch his golden iPod into space the way Carl Sagan (the man, not the dog) launched his Golden Record on the Voyager spacecraft in 1977. From Colorado to New Mexico, Las Vegas to L.A., Alex records a journey on his iPod to show other lifeforms what life on earth, his earth, is like. But his destination keeps changing. And the funny, lost, remarkable people he meets along the way can only partially prepare him for the secrets he’ll uncover—from the truth about his long-dead dad to the fact that, for a kid with a troubled mom and a mostly not-around brother, he has way more family than he ever knew. Jack Cheng’s debut is full of joy, optimism, determination, and unbelievable heart. To read the first page is to fall in love with Alex and his view of our big, beautiful, complicated world. To read the last is to know he and his story will stay with you a long, long time.

Book excerpt: Exotic dancing is a popular industry and can be an easy way to earn quick cash. My goal is to educate people on what it all entails by sharing my story. I talk about my firsthand experience, customers, the condition of the clubs, how owners and most of the staff treat the dancers, and how dancers are treated outside of the club, if they are truthful about what they do for a living. My experience goes from how I started dancing to what made me hang up my stilettos for good. I also talk about my daughter's experience as a dancer a few years after I quit, and you will see that things have not improved. I think it is time to expose this to the rest of the world so people will quit blaming the dancers for their choice of career and make them human again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All hope lies, in the boy who allies. All is despair, at the fall of the last true heir. There has been a partition among the Turners: Infiniters, and Barrenisers are now the two faces. Another society exists in the secrecy of twilight; fierce women known as the Universals. Three secret societies are warring over a time-traveling teenage boy. Someone sinister is afoot. From the very moment James’ parents and grandfather died in a ghastly car crash, his life in Miami has been like a Euler’s disk, barely stable. The advent of a secretive family, a sicko doctor, a mysterious birth-twin, an obscure will, a rather defectively conceived lens, and an uncontrollable and confused conscience are all massing to fell down the fort of James’ wildly chaotic life. And all this starts way before James discovers THE TIME-TURNER; one of the only things his father left him. The Overlord remains in silence, lurking in the shadows, taking his time to carve out the perfect blow.

Book excerpt: It’s been a thousand years since the Pact was forged with the blood of heroes, uniting the five tribes and pushing the shadows back into the darkness. Since that time, peace has reigned in former Eventide. But now, dark shadows working behind the scenes for centuries have corrupted the once-pure High Magus Council, the overseers of the Pact and enforcers of its laws, twisting the justice it once stood for into a gross parody of greed and control. But an ancient, secret prophecy speaks of a lost people. People ignorant to the ways of magick and steel, but masters of a new kind of magick. The magick of crafts and machines, of information and tecknowledge. It is said they will emerge from a halo of dark light and bring with them a city of wonders. Life tends to slow to a crawl in Dunsmith, British Columbia. The small Vancouver Island town is nothing more than a crossroads. But when a strange event occurs and leaves the entire town stranded knee-deep in the Disputed Lands, they find they must band together as they face trials they were unprepared for. Invading armies, magick, elementals and even the local economy have to be taken into consideration. But how well can a small town of eight thousand hold back the furies of the Pactlands?
