Book excerpt: Rescue the queen. Don't lose your heart. When the Queen of the Fae is captured by a human hunter, Sorcha, the queen’s youngest sister, is convinced that her sister needs help. Unable to persuade her other High Fae sisters to join her on a rescue mission, she goes to the queen’s sire, the High Rogue, for help. Bryn, an apprentice serving the High Rogue, has been hoping to climb the ranks of the Rogue Fae. When the High Rogue’s untrained niece appears, asking for help rescuing the queen, Bryn sees this as an opportunity and agrees to take on this mission. With only days remaining before the wedding, the unlikely pair set off on their mission. But if Sorcha can’t control her impulsive nature, and Bryn can’t stay one step ahead of the High Rogue’s schemes, the Faerie Queen will remain the captive of a power hungry human and Fae magic will slowly fade away. Note: This is a stand-alone story that occurs alongside the events of the other books in the Modern Fae series.

Download or read book The Big Book of Rogues and Villains written by Otto Penzler and published by Vintage Crime/Black Lizard. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 930 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Award-winning editor Otto Penzler's new anthology brings together the most cunning, ruthless, and brilliant criminals in mystery fiction, for the biggest compendium of bad guys (and girls) ever assembled. The best mysteries--whether detective, historical, police procedural, cozy, or comedy--have one thing in common: a memorable perpetrator. For every Sherlock Holmes or Sam Spade in noble pursuit, there's a Count Dracula, a Lester Leith, or a Jimmy Valentine. These are the rogues and villains who haunt our imaginations--and who often have more in common with their heroic counterparts than we might expect. Now, for the first time ever, Otto Penzler gathers the iconic traitors, thieves, con men, sociopaths, and killers who have crept through the mystery canon over the past 150 years, captivating and horrifying readers in equal measure. The 72 handpicked stories in this collection introduce us to the most depraved of psyches, from iconic antiheroes like Maurice Leblanc's Arsène Lupin and Sax Rohmer's Dr. Fu Manchu to contemporary delinquents like Lawrence Block's Ehrengraf and Donald Westlake's Dortmunder, and include unforgettable tales by Robert Louis Stevenson, Bram Stoker, Washington Irving, Jack London, H.G. Wells, Sinclair Lewis, O. Henry, Edgar Wallace, Leslie Charteris, Erle Stanley Gardner, Edward D. Hoch, Max Allan Collins, Loren D. Estleman, and many more.

Download or read book Rogues and Early Modern English Culture written by Craig Dionne and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Those at the periphery of society often figure obsessively for those at its center, and never more so than with the rogues of early modern England. Whether as social fact or literary fiction-or both, simultaneously-the marginal rogue became ideologically central and has remained so for historians, cultural critics, and literary critics alike. In this collection, early modern rogues represent the range, diversity, and tensions within early modern scholarship, making this quite simply the best overview of their significance then and now." -Jonathan Dollimore, York University "Rogues and Early Modern English Culture is an up-to-date and suggestive collection on a subject that all scholars of the early modern period have encountered but few have studied in the range and depth represented here." -Lawrence Manley, Yale University "A model of cross-disciplinary exchange, Rogues and Early Modern English Culture foregrounds the figure of the rogue in a nexus of early modern cultural inscriptions that reveals the provocation a seemingly marginal figure offers to authorities and various forms of authoritative understanding, then and now. The new and recent work gathered here is an exciting contribution to early modern studies, for both scholars and students." -Alexandra W. Halasz, Dartmouth College Rogues and Early Modern English Culture is a definitive collection of critical essays on the literary and cultural impact of the early modern rogue. Under various names-rogues, vagrants, molls, doxies, vagabonds, cony-catchers, masterless men, caterpillars of the commonwealth-this group of marginal figures, poor men and women with no clear social place or identity, exploded onto the scene in sixteenth-century English history and culture. Early modern representations of the rogue or moll in pamphlets, plays, poems, ballads, historical records, and the infamous Tudor Poor Laws treated these characters as harbingers of emerging social, economic, and cultural changes. Images of the early modern rogue reflected historical developments but also created cultural icons for mobility, change, and social adaptation. The underclass rogue in many ways inverts the familiar image of the self-fashioned gentleman, traditionally seen as the literary focus and exemplar of the age, but the two characters have more in common than courtiers or humanists would have admitted. Both relied on linguistic prowess and social dexterity to manage their careers, whether exploiting the politics of privilege at court or surviving by their wits on urban streets. Deftly edited by Craig Dionne and Steve Mentz, this anthology features essays from prominent and emerging critics in the field of Renaissance studies and promises to attract considerable attention from a broad range of readers and scholars in literary studies and social history.

Lady of Desire Miss Margery Derrington is on a quest to save herself and her aunts from financial ruin. Their medieval manuscript contains a secret code that could lead to a legendary treasure. But can she trust Rhys Bowen, the charming scholar who’s promised to help her find it, or will the lure of fame and fortune destroy everything—including the attraction simmering between them? Romancing the Earl Major Elijah Hollister never wanted to be an earl, particularly not when it meant losing his brother. When Miss Catriona Bowen shows up seeking a treasure map, Elijah suspects his brother’s death may not have been accidental and that the bold adventuress knows more than she’s willing to share. Whether she’s a friend or foe, Elijah plans to keep her close—and hope the temptation of her kisses doesn’t ruin them both.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth book in the charming and sensual School for Heiresses series by New York Times bestselling author Sabrina Jeffries tells the story of an alluringly handsome rake who challenges everything a young teacher thinks she knows about passion and desire. When Madeline Prescott took a teaching position at Mrs. Harris’s School for Young Ladies, it was to help restore her father’s reputation. Instead, she’s in danger of ruining her own. The devilishly handsome Anthony Dalton, Viscount Norcourt, has agreed to provide “rake lessons” to Mrs. Harris’s pupils so that they can learn how to avoid unscrupulous gentlemen, and Madeline is to oversee his classes. She has always believed that attraction is a scientific matter, easily classified and controlled—until she’s swept into the passionate desire that fiercely burns between her and Anthony. Nothing could be more illogical than risking everything for a dalliance with a rake, even one who’s trying to behave himself. Yet nothing could be more tempting…
