Book excerpt: Jelicho is an old bounty hunter and all he wants is one last job to get enough money to settle down. Kafra is a poor trickster and a phoney but there's a big hit out on him. It seems a child's play to kill him, but Jelicho doesn’t know how much he was wrong. Killing Kafra is easy, but keeping him dead is a hell of a problem. In the old city, nobody is safe and plans never go the way you want. “The night had transformed the city into a black labryinth. Jelicho walked through the crooked alleys and could clearly perceive the presence of indistinct shadows moving behind the corners or spying from the windows. They retreated as soon as they saw the Moor put his palm on the enormous scimitar’s handle, tall as he was like a giant dressed in clothes that made him seem a demon. At times he felt like an old lion, who frightened the young men still too terrorized to face him, lurking in the shadows and awaiting the day he would finally be weak.” =============================================== "Kafra the magnificent" is the second adventure of Altro Evo, fantasy stories of Sword & Sorcery, self-contained adventures.

We’ll be less than dust.” “How the hell do you know?” “I…” How could she summarize all that had happened from when she first found that message on the tavern’s beam up until now and give a plausible explanation? “…I am a witch.” Piluk let out a long whistle that vibrated between his rabbit teeth. “That explains the face and all the rest. I can’t believe it! I’m going to be the assistant of a witch!” “Yeah, sure. Now take that damn handle and help me lift it!” Piluk nodded vigorously, with his protruding ears tomato-red from the excitement. =============================================== "Ugly as Death" is the third adventure of Altro Evo, fantasy stories of Sword & Sorcery, self-contained adventures.

Download or read book The Legend of Broken written by Caleb Carr and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 753 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A sprawling fantasy saga . . . Caleb Carr boldly goes where he’s never gone before.”—USA Today Legend meets history in this mesmerizing novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Caleb Carr. Demonstrating the rich storytelling, skillful plotting, and depth of research he showcased in The Alienist, Carr has written a wildly imaginative, genre-bending saga that redefines the boundaries of literature. Some years ago, a remarkable manuscript long rumored to exist was discovered: The Legend of Broken. It tells of a prosperous fortress city where order reigns at the point of a sword—even as scheming factions secretly vie for control of the surrounding kingdom. Meanwhile, outside the city’s granite walls, an industrious tribe of exiles known as the Bane forages for sustenance in the wilds of Davon Wood. At every turn, the lives of Broken’s defenders and its would-be destroyers intertwine: Sixt Arnem, the widely respected and honorable head of the kingdom’s powerful army, grapples with his conscience and newfound responsibilities amid rumors of impending war. Lord Baster-kin, master of the Merchants’ Council, struggles to maintain the magnificence of his kingdom even as he pursues vainglorious dreams of power. And Keera, a gifted female tracker of the Bane tribe, embarks on a perilous journey to save her people, enlisting the aid of the notorious and brilliant philosopher Caliphestros. Together, they hope to exact a ruinous revenge on Broken, ushering in a day of reckoning when the mighty walls will be breached forever in a triumph of science over superstition. Breathtakingly profound and compulsively readable, Caleb Carr’s long-awaited new book is an action-packed, multicharacter epic of a medieval clash of cultures—in which new gods collide with old, science defies all expectation, and virtue comes in many guises. Brimming with adventure and narrative invention, The Legend of Broken is an exhilarating and enthralling masterwork. Praise for The Legend of Broken “An excellent and old-fashioned entertainment . . . The Legend of Broken seamlessly blends epic adventure with serious research and asks questions that men and women grappled with in the Dark Ages and still do today.”—The Washington Post “[A] colossal effort . . . a fantasy epic . . . meant as an allegory, a cautionary tale for our precarious times. To make his points, Carr has summoned a dream team of soldiers, wizards, and tiny forest folk.”—The New York Times Book Review “Carr keeps the action hurtling along with a steady diet of gruesome murders and political betrayals. And he clearly wants modern readers to see something of their own world in the political corruption and greed that ultimately doom Broken.”—The Boston Globe
Download or read book A Vow to Change written by Mike Ike Chinwuba and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil war in Kafra left the small African country in total devastation. Those who survived were faced with hopelessness and solitude. As a result, they held fast to their guns, the only tools they knew how to use, which resulted in indiscriminate hijackings, robbery, bribery, corruption, and scams. Ken witnessed such incidents during his struggle to leave Kafra for the UK. On his return, he became aware that the culprits had become very rich, powerful, and lawless at the detriment of the honest and hardworking minority. Driven by anger to transform it, he realized that the philosophy that he acquired during a chance meeting with a professor on a park bench in London was indispensable for change from within. The Buddhist teachings elucidate the principles of cause and effect and change from within. Ken single-mindedly initiated the revolution that transformed households, families, communities, and a countrya real departure.
