Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Stephen Frey comes a riveting new thriller about a world-weary star litigator who goes west to become a firefighter in the nation’s greatest woodland—and stumbles across the toughest case of his career. With fifteen novels under his belt, including such bestsellers as The Takeover and The Insider, veteran suspense writer Stephen Frey has long since proven himself as a master of the sophisticated thriller. Now, with Hell’s Gate, he makes a bold departure into new territory with a story that is literally as explosive as it is impossible to set down. When thirty-five-year-old litigator Hunter Lee decides to turn his back on the rat race that has made him rich but cost him his marriage, he takes the advice of his brother and goes to Montana. There he joins the elite Smoke Jumpers, marines of the firefighting world, who parachute out of C-5 airplanes to contain the worst forest fires of the remote west. But escape from the ugly side of human nature is hardly what he finds when word reaches him of a small town’s little secret involving arson and the reckless quest for profits at the expense of lives. As Hunter follows his instincts, rural Montana becomes a crucible where good and evil collide—and where one man, running from his past, takes on the Herculean task of exposing the guilty while saving himself and those he cares about most from the biggest foe he has ever faced.

Book excerpt: A bounty hunter finds himself in the ultimate kill-or-be-killed showdown—from the national bestselling Western authors of A Time for Vultures. Raised in the wild. Armed to the teeth. Sam Flintlock is no ordinary bounty hunter. But sometimes even a man who sets traps for a living can step right into one. Sometimes the hunter becomes the hunted . . . One Week in Hell After crossing the dry Arizona desert—and missing six meals in a row—Sam Flintlock is flat-out desperate. For food. For work. For lodgings. Luckily he finds all three in the high timber country east of the Mogollon River. A very young and pretty heiress, Lucy Cullen, has an unusual proposition for the bounty hunter. She will pay him cold, hard cash to spend one full week in the gothic mansion of her murdered uncle. What’s the catch? The place is haunted . . . Flintlock ain’t afraid of the dead. It’s the living he’s more worried about—namely Hogan Forde, the murderous Texas gunslinger who just happens to be skulking around town. Toss in a few unfriendly locals and a missing treasure map, and you’ve got all the makings of a pretty terrifying campfire story. The difference is, these restless spirits are very much among the living, and they’ve got Flintlock slated for his own afterlife . . . Praise for the novels of William W. Johnstone “[A] rousing, two-fisted saga of the growing American frontier.”—Publishers Weekly on Eyes of Eagles “There’s plenty of gunplay and fast-paced action.”—Curled Up with a Good Book on Dead Before Sundown
Download or read book The Inferno written by Dante Alighieri and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2001-06-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belonging in the immortal company of the works of Homer, Virgil, Milton, and Shakespeare, Dante Alighieri’s poetic masterpiece is a visionary journey that takes readers through the torment of Hell. The first part of Dante’s Divine Comedy is many things: a moving human drama, a supreme expression of the Middle Ages, a glorification of the ways of God, and a magnificent protest against the ways in which men have thwarted the divine plan. One of the few literary works that has enjoyed a fame both immediate and enduring, The Inferno remains powerful after seven centuries. It confronts the most universal values—good and evil, free will and predestination—while remaining intensely personal and ferociously political, for it was born out of the anguish of a man who saw human life blighted by the injustice and corruption of his times. Translated by John Ciardi With an Introduction by Archibald T. MacAllister and an Afterword by Edward M. Cifelli

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maya San Lucas had been lost in her dreamworld for the better part of five years. Desparia was just a fantasy world for her to explore during stretches of boredom at school and at home. Going to that world let her have adventures, exploring secret locations, and searching through towns and cities for loot to come away with. The life of a thief was so much more exciting than high school, especially with no friends to speak of. After the battle at the museum, Maya returns to her dreamworld, this time in person. But was she really ready for the world of Desparia? Still stuck within the emperor's stronghold, the group continues in their quest to defeat the enemy that threatens the lives of everyone in the world. Everyone that doesn't conform to his idea of normal. But as they go deeper within the magical maze, they're sent straight to the heart of the afterlife. Surrounded by powerful beings, they must confront their own internal demons that rival those that surround them in the flesh. When you're stuck in hell, the only way out is through. When Heather first came into her powers, it wasn't the smoothest of transitions into the role of a mage initiate. Her magic destroyed her childhood home, with her parents along with it. As her powers continued to rage beyond her control, only the help of her new teacher could possibly let her go back to the normal life she so longed for. But when the emperor comes knocking, her choices are stripped from her, and her future is no longer her own.

Book excerpt: For centuries, the empire of Cheliax stood as an example of the greatness humanity could achieve, with colonies and vassal states spread throughout the Inner Sea region. When the god Aroden died on the eve of his prophesied return to the mortal world, the empire fell into a vicious civil war. The victors of this conflict were the Thrice-Damned House of Thrune, who made pacts with the denizens of Hell to wrest control of Cheliax. In the decades since, many of the empire's holdings have fallen away, but at its core Cheliax remains a powerful nation, now both subservient to and allied with the legions of the Pit. Explore the vast nation and its inhabitants, from the gnomes of Brastlewark to the xenophobic, winged strix of Devil's Perch; from the rebellious citizens of Kintargo to Thrune loyalists in the heart of Egorian. A perfect supplement to the Hell's Rebels and Hell's Vengeance Adventure Paths, Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Cheliax, The Infernal Empire is a must-have!

Mike is committed to bringing down this new criminal powerhouse before he takes power, no matter where his investigation takes him.
