Book excerpt: Fleeing the threat of civil war on her home world and a planetary genocide game played by an ancient and evil race, Princess Grace and her small band of refugees seek sanctuary on distant Earth. But their peaceful existence is shattered when one of her own betrays them. With Earth hanging in the balance, an unlikely hero comes forward to challenge the impossible odds. Young Adult meets Military Sci-Fi This story is a rich, warm YA story, underpinned by a complex, well-realized Military SF with intricate politics and thrilling battles. The two sides, Verceti and Trun are embroiled in a centuries-long war. Both have come to a grinding stalemate, but an unseen third force starts to tip the balance of power in the Trun's favour. In order to preserve their leadership, the Verceti mount a counterattack as a distraction covering them from fleeing. This includes the young princess, Grace. She lands on Earth where her training continues, picking up some native allies on the way. What I really enjoyed was the true villains, the Zerot. In military SF, often reasons are given for the conflict which just doesn't stand up to scrutiny. In this, it is all a game to them, which they bet on, which makes more sense than most reasons. The YA side did concern me as it's not my usual fair, however, the sheer warmth this side shows was compelling in itself, especially when juxtaposed with what you know is coming. A note, as this is a self-published book - the editing is excellent. (In fact, it is edited by the legendary Ellen Campbell, who provides a stamp of quality in her involvement) So, in conclusion - 5 stars for a brilliant first book. Compelling and Beautiful - Verified UK Amazon Customer I read this book whilst on holiday in Spain. I was looking forward to a relaxing poolside read but instead was suddenly transported to planets many light years away with evil (no… really evil) beings and to places quite close (only a few hundred miles away). Mr Lambert certainly has an imagination with a twist. There are some lovely characters that you can visualize – helped by the wonderful book cover artwork. The first book is grounded on earth (not to give the story away) and I think that this helps the reader flow into the second book (which is also brilliant). The story is compelling and beautiful and I am looking forward to book 3. An Interview with the Author Q. What makes the Zerot Infestation Series special? A. It's a mixture of things, really. It is the book I've always wanted to read. The villains behave in the same manner as the Japanese Giant Hornets (now they are nasty pieces of work). I wanted to create a unique story, which I believe this series is. You won't see "If you like so and so, you'll love this" because there is nothing else like this. My hero in the first chapter of Book 1 thinks "And what could she, a ten-year-old girl do anyway? Leave the war to the adults. "Unfortunately, as she grows up, she finds herself dragged into the forefront of the war and an unseen, colossal galactic confrontation. But the best thing this series portrays, so I'm told, is my vivid/weird imagination. (I've also managed to rewrite history in a couple of places, which is well cool!) Q. The series targets Teens & Young Adults. A. Yes and no. I was never impressed with bad language, graphical sex or violence in books, so the series is written with Teens & Young Adults in mind, with a feel-good factor. But this isn't just for kids. The Zerot, and especially Birjjikk, are despicable and their exploitations aren't shied away from. Q. Is the series complete? A. Yes. Book 6 has recently been published and I'm getting some great reviews. 1: Princess Grace of Earth 2: The Journey Home. 3: Prince Ventar of Trun 4: Planet of the Remaining 5: Prince Daviss of Nowhere 6: The Would-be Queen

Download or read book True Grace written by Wendy Leigh and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2008-06-10 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Her Serene Highness, Princess Grace of Monaco, the legendary Hollywood screen siren, Grace Kelly is an American icon whose beauty is unrivalled, and whose oft-imitated aristocratic style and cool elegance has never been eclipsed. Wendy Leigh- after three years' research - has gained unprecedented access to over one hundred sources who have never talked about Grace before, including nine of her until now undisclosed romances - among them an English aristocrat, an American tennis player, and a Hollywood legend - and also including her priest friend, Father Peter Jacobs, and Bernard Combemal, the former head of the S.B.M, the consortium that runs Monaco. Wendy Leigh provides revealing new details about Grace's life, including her premarital romantic swan song which took place during her voyage to Monaco, the hitherto untold story of her troubling relationship with bridesmaid, Carolyn Reybold and the moving story of Grace's lifelong relationship with actor, David Niven. Wendy Leigh paints a compelling portrait of Grace, the ambitious young actress, Grace, the dutiful princess who transformed the principality of Monaco into a jet-set haven, Grace, the kind-hearted philanthropist, Grace, the loving mother, and Grace, the patriotic American. Wendy Leigh's book has not been written for those readers who wish to view Grace as a saint, but for those who - like Leigh herself - believes that she was a strong and wonderful woman.

Download or read book The Zerot Infestation Books 1 3 written by A K Lambert and published by A K Lambert. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 856 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the planet Preenasette in the Alpheratz system, two countries, Verceti and Trun, are engaged in a three-hundred-year war. The conflict has become sterile and is mainly carried out in space and is of little interest to the occupants of each country who carry on going about their daily lives. Then, an unseen foe (the Zerot) infiltrates the Trun, turning vital governing and military members into their bondservants, forcing them to carry out atrocities and ramp up the war on the planet’s surface as well as in space. The Zerot Cadre has twenty years to bring the world to its knees in readiness for the arrival of a Violation armada that will annihilate all Preenasettians—both Vercetian and Trun. Back in Zerot, three ancient dynasties wager on the outcome of the war and how quickly the Violation armada can complete their deadly task. To them, it is just a game—one more planet removed from existence, like many hundreds before. On Verceti, their system of ruling is under serious threat, so they decide to send their three youngest Royals (in training for the ruling council and referred to as Princes and Princesses, but without any bloodlines) off-world to protect them from repeated assassination attempts. Grace arrives on Earth with her Life Team that will train and look after her. They settle in a manor house in a secluded part of Southern Ireland, but within the team is a spy who alerts the Trun. A Trun battle cruiser is dispatched to Earth to kill the princess if the spy doesn’t. And to add to the princess’s woes, there is a Zerot en route to Earth with similar instructions. Grace will need all her training and the help of many Earthlings if she is to escape certain death.
