Book excerpt: Here in America, we know that the drug war is tearing Mexico apart, but it feels distant, removed from our day-to-day lives. What is it really like to live on the front lines? Featuring original work from award-winning Mexican writers, "Blood Calls to Blood" presents a gripping yet intimate account of a crisis that has brutally claimed at least 50,000 people since December 2006. With stunning first-person testimony and insightful commentary, this book collects writing from ZYZZYVAthe acclaimed San Francisco literary journal dedicated since 1985 to publishing the best work from West Coast writers, poets, translators, and artists. Among the nonfiction and fiction in this volume, you will find reportage from Diego Enrique Osorno, who tries to puzzle together what exactly happened when the Zetas and the Gulf Cartel clashed in the border town of Ciudad Mier, and from Marcela Turati, who visits a morgue in northeastern Mexico and talks to the desperate people who have long been searching for their missing loved ones.There are short stories from the late, internationally lauded fiction writer Daniel Sada (about three heads discovered in an ice chest during a drug cartel's party) and from emerging writer Mauro Gallardo (on a night of joyriding with a young narco). An introductory essay by John Gibler, author of "To Die in Mexico: Dispatches from Inside the Drug War," provides a primer on what's truly at stake in Mexico's drug war, and a lyrical meditation from novelist and columnist Cristina Rivera Garza explores the reasons for continuing to write amid the mayhem. "Blood Calls to Blood" is an important record of a catastrophe that continues to unfold and greatly affects not just all of Mexico, but all of the Americas.

She's seen her brother's dead body, witnessed the shooting of innocent civilians, and been shot at herself. Now she has nowhere to turn-and only one person she can possibly call. Since Anna dumped him, it seems waiting is all Josiah Wolfe has done. Now, she's calling, and she needs his help -- or rather, the "talents" she once ran away from. As a liquidation agent, Josiah knows everything about getting out of tough situations. He'll get whatever she's carrying to the proper authorities, then settle down to making sure she doesn't leave him again. But the story Anna's stumbled into is far bigger than even Josiah suspects. Anna wants to survive, Josiah wants Anna back, and the powerful people chasing her want the only thing worth killing for -- immortality. An ancient evil has been trapped, a woman is in danger, and the world is going to see just how far a liquidation agent will go...

Book excerpt: Paris is just a demon minding his own business when he is jarred out of his comfortable existence by a chance encounter. Being a Lord in the Royal Court, and a highly respected member of his community, he is not prone to human affinities. But when he feels an aura unlike anything he has ever felt before, he is drawn to it with a fierce curiosity. Zoe Fine, a young woman trying to hide from her past in the big city, catches his attention and holds it firmly in place. Itching with insatiable desire to find out why she is so different, Paris begins to follow her, watching silently as she scrapes and claws at a meager existence in the city the best she can. When Zoe becomes aware of Paris' haunting presence, she summons the courage to confront him. Resorting to drastic measures to rid herself of his shadow, she offers him a deal. Unfortunately for her, he accepts and she is sucked into a world she tried so hard to escape. But Paris begins to feel things for Zoe, and his infatuation does not go unnoticed. Jackson, his long time business partner, senses the changes in the stoic demon lord and tracks the source of the disruption to his newest client. When everything Paris tries to do right, goes horribly wrong, everyone will pay dearly for his sins.
Download or read book The Erratics written by Vicki Laveau-Harvie and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two sisters reckon with their toxic parents through the decline and death of their outlandishly tyrannical mother and with the care of their psychologically terrorized father, all relayed with dark humor and brutal honesty in this award-winning “brilliantly-written memoir... [that] reads like a novel” (best-selling author Margaret Atwood via Twitter). When her elderly mother is hospitalized unexpectedly, Vicki Laveau-Harvie and her sister travel to their parents' ranch home in Alberta, Canada, to help their father. Estranged from their parents for many years, they are horrified by what they discover on their arrival. For years their mother has camouflaged her manic delusions and savage unpredictability, and over the decades she has managed to shut herself and her husband away from the outside world, systematically starving him and making him a virtual prisoner in his own home. Rearranging their lives to be the daughters they were never allowed to be, the sisters focus their efforts on helping their father cope with the unending manipulations of their mother and encounter all the pressures that come with caring for elderly parents. And at every step they have to contend with their mother, whose favorite phrase during their childhood was: "I'll get you and you won't even know I'm doing it." Set against the natural world of the Canadian foothills ("in winter the cold will kill you, nothing personal"), this memoir—at once dark and hopeful—shatters precedents about grief, anger, and family trauma with surprising tenderness and humor.

But when the heir of The Dragon lineage defies the millenary vampire leader, chaos ensues, and the aftermath spoils everything for the vampire Ivan Lockhart. Lockhart’s sole wish is to hunt in peace and enjoy the luxuries of his new life in San Francisco, but trouble looms on the horizon, and a call from someone who’d he thought lost to him forever only makes matters worse... Readers who love A Discovery of Witches will love The Unnatural Brethren series! ◆ Excerpt from Call of Blood: Ivan took the first step down the narrow stairway, Phillip and the rest followed. As they descended, the temperature shifted, quickly becoming cooler and moist. A few feet ahead, flickering torchlight bathed the walls, while behind them, pitch darkness swallowed the tunnel. They reached a vast circular room at the end of the stairs. Intricately ornamented pillars prolonged into high-arches that stretched into a rib-vaulted ceiling. Two other tunnels as the one that had led them to this ancient hall were carved into the stone, running deep. Beyond what seemed like a ceremonial antechamber lay another room. Inside, Phillip discovered a dais that led to an empty chair carved in mahogany, lined with red velvet and embroidered in gold. The chair stood beneath a red velvet baldachin. This was no ordinary chair. Phillip had heard the stories, but he never imagined one day he'd be standing before the Red Throne. "I don't like this at all," Phillip said. "There's no one here" "I wouldn't say that." Ivan sniggered, pointing at a headless corpse on the ground, its head, carefully placed on the dais' first step. Revolting. Dozens of red velvet banners hung from the ceiling; embroidered in them was the same sigil he'd found on the throne. "The Dragon..." Phillip mused. © Silvana G. Sánchez 2020
