Book excerpt: Faten’s happy life in her village comes to an abrupt end when her father arranges for her to work as a servant for a wealthy Beirut family with two spoiled daughters. What does a bright, ambitious seventeen-year-old do when she is suddenly deprived of her friends, family, education and freedom? Could the mysterious, wealthy young man who lives in the next apartment building help? When Faten finally manages to make contact with Marwan, a musician and engineering student, he helps her figure out a way to pursue her studies in secret. Even against the uncertain backdrop of the civil war, their romance develops, as the two conspire to exchange notes and meet at an idyllic seaside cafe. But in Lebanese society the differences in religion, class and wealth are stacked against them, and their parents have very different ideas about what their futures should be. When Marwan’s mother chooses a girl who will make him a suitable wife, Faten must pick up the pieces of her life and move forward. She does so, despite the odds, pursuing a job, an education and her independence. And, in the end, it seems there may be room in her life yet for romance, and hope for a future where young people can determine their own destinies. An engaging and lucidly written coming-of-age novel. Faten struggles to fulfill her potential in the midst of her society’s rigid expectations. She’s a nuanced, complex protagonist that any teenager can relate to — stubborn, impulsive and full of longing, but with the determination and smarts to keep her real dreams in sight.

REVIEWS: ‘ gripping mystery steeped in blood and ancient Aztec magic. I was enthralled.’ — Sean Williams ‘An Aztec priest of the dead tries to solve a murder mystery, and finds that politics may be even more powerful than magic. A vivid portrayal of an interesting culture in a truly fresh fantasy novel.’ — Kevin J. Anderson ‘Amid the mud and maize of the Mexica empire, Aliette de Bodard has composed a riveting story of murder, magic and sibling rivalry.’ — Elizabeth Bear ‘The world-building is exquisite and we *believe* we are transported to the 15th century Tenotichtlan and together with the superb voice they formed the main reason I enjoyed this book so much...

Download or read book The Servant written by Alistair McAlpine and published by . This book was released on 1992-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lord McAlpine observed the inner workings of political power during the fifteen years Margaret Thatcher was leader of the Conservative Party and he was its Treasurer and Deputy Chairman. One of the Prime Minister's close personal advisers during three successful general election campaigns, he witnessed innumerable battles within the cabinet and the Party." "As Machiavelli's The Prince described a code of conduct for political leaders, so Alistair McAlpine explores the relationship between the Prince and his or her devoted aide - the Servant. The result is an entertaining guide to survival in a world of suspicion and envy, of strategic alliances and ruthless disinformation. The Servant explains how to destroy an opponent through promotion, and why your enemy can be relied on to give you the best advice; how to ensure a piece of news spreads (tell it to another in confidence), and why you must never let the Prince tell you a secret." "The tale of Margaret Thatcher's eventual fall from power is threaded through this brilliant new treatise on realpolitik, which is dedicated to her by a Servant who feels she could, and should, have been better served."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: They called the kings together at the place, called in Hebrew, Armageddon. The seventh angel emptied his bowl into the air, and a voice shouted from the sanctuary, 'The end has come'. Then there were flashes of lightning and peals of thunder and the most violent earthquake that anyone has ever seen since there have been men on the earth. Revelation 16:16-18 The world war, which has raged across Europe, North Africa and the Ottoman Empire for four years, is finally drawing to a close. General Edmund H. H. Allenby - broad-shouldered, square-jawed man possessed of great physical strength, 'an explosive general' - marches his army north past Megiddo, 'the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon'. The goal: the town of Haifa in the north of Palestine. In Haifa the small and terrified Baha'i community gathers in the house of 'Abdu'l-Baha, the head of the Baha'i Faith. 'Abdu'l-Baha calms the excited Baha'is and calls them to prayer. He assures them that all will be well. But His own life has been threatened by the Ottoman leader, Djemal Pasha. Here is the intriguing story of a battle foretold in the Hebrew Bible that linked the lives of two men who shaped history in very different ways. Published to coincide with the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Armageddon.

When a peasant-King arrives and pays the debt to free all those enslaved to an devious and destructive enemy, the whole world changes. A new kind of Kingdom is built in the land, where freedom abounds and slavery in abolished. In this Kingdom, the King serves the people and the people serve the King.

Emberlyn, who has lived for so long with the weight of her past pressing on her. Claire, who is invited to become one of the most powerful warriors in the Kingdom, but at what cost? Toria, who knows that King saved her once, but fears it won't be enough to truly free her. And Katisia, who lives in a world of blindness but thinks she can see.
