Book excerpt: A Girl. A Mysterious Power. A Revolution The Archon Dominion crushes all dissent. Mercy Hail wants change, no matter the cost to herself. But freak accidents keep happening around her, and she can’t explain why. So when she lights the fuse on an uprising, it’s not exactly a surprise when everything goes wrong at once. The Dominion sends Dante Matter to Mercy’s world with a simple set of orders: Find the girl with emerging telekinetic powers and put her to work for us. Nobody warned him she’d be beautiful, though. Nobody warned him her gifts would be greater than his own. And nobody warned him that his hunt would be the first battle in an interstellar war. In a world where gifts like hers have been all but extinguished, Mercy must choose sides in a war that will spread across the stars. To survive, she’ll have to learn how to use her power, learn how she feels about Dante, and learn the true story of the past that made her who she is.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book for 2011 A Library Journal Top Ten Best Books of 2011 A Boston Globe Best Nonfiction Book of 2011 Bestselling author Tony Horwitz tells the electrifying tale of the daring insurrection that put America on the path to bloody war Plotted in secret, launched in the dark, John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry was a pivotal moment in U.S. history. But few Americans know the true story of the men and women who launched a desperate strike at the slaveholding South. Now, Midnight Rising portrays Brown's uprising in vivid color, revealing a country on the brink of explosive conflict. Brown, the descendant of New England Puritans, saw slavery as a sin against America's founding principles. Unlike most abolitionists, he was willing to take up arms, and in 1859 he prepared for battle at a hideout in Maryland, joined by his teenage daughter, three of his sons, and a guerrilla band that included former slaves and a dashing spy. On October 17, the raiders seized Harpers Ferry, stunning the nation and prompting a counterattack led by Robert E. Lee. After Brown's capture, his defiant eloquence galvanized the North and appalled the South, which considered Brown a terrorist. The raid also helped elect Abraham Lincoln, who later began to fulfill Brown's dream with the Emancipation Proclamation, a measure he called "a John Brown raid, on a gigantic scale." Tony Horwitz's riveting book travels antebellum America to deliver both a taut historical drama and a telling portrait of a nation divided—a time that still resonates in ours.

Download or read book Mercy Sky written by Dawn Dyson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mercy Sky is a riveting novel based upon actual historical events woven silently through our young American past. Events such as John Chart Crenshaw's Reverse Underground Railroad or the "lost" section of the Cherokee Trail of Tears are the very fabric loosely covering our identity as a nation. As a people forever affected by the ramifications of tragedy, we should not let the lessons fall away useless and forgotten. Mercy Sky revisits yesterday's world with the timelessness of a delicate love story. The spiritual waves brought of young lovers Lemn and Cora, of makeshift siblings Avi and Drake unfurl anew like a crisp banner on a fresh land, a land they envisioned would be our America. Or did evil, did bitterness taint their dreams? Dawn Dyson takes contrasting, seemingly isolated threads and masterfully swirls them together into a liberating foundation of hardship and triumph upon which we all can stand. Follow her on the enigmatic path she creates through our shared history. Upon finish, you'll take a look back reflecting on the layered depth of Mercy Sky and find that your soul is suddenly clearer as you face your own horizon.

Will the Freedom Fighters and warriors of Zion join the fight? And at what cost?
