Book excerpt: Amidst the chaos of World War I, a nurse and wounded soldier find love in this historical romance from the author of The Wedding Diary. On the eve of the First World War, young Rose Courtenay is torn between marrying the man her parents chose for her or following her heart and joining the war effort. Ultimately the chance to escape her parents’ desires proves irresistible, and Rose journeys to France to become a nurse. Far from home, she meets a dark figure from her past. Lieutenant Alex Denham is the last man in the world she’d get involved with—especially now that he’s married. But in wartime nothing is as it seems. Alex’s marriage is a sham and Rose is the only woman he’s ever wanted. But while his gift of a silver locket may be a declaration of love, Rose isn’t sure she can trust him with her heart. Moving from rural Dorset to war-torn London and the horrors of the Western Front, The Silver Locket is a compelling story of the enduring power of love, and courage in all its forms.

Download or read book Troy Lord of the Silver Bow written by David Gemmell and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2006-10-31 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this first masterly volume in an epic reimagining of the Trojan War, David Gemmell has written an ageless drama of brave deeds and fierce battles, of honor and treachery, of love won and lost. He is a man of many names. Some call him the Golden One; others, the Lord of the Silver Bow. To the Dardanians, he is Prince Aeneas. But to his friends, he is Helikaon. Strong, fast, quick of mind, he is a bold warrior, hated by his enemies, feared even by his Trojan allies. For there is a darkness at the heart of the Golden One, a savagery that, once awakened, can be appeased only with blood. Argurios the Mykene is a peerless fighter, a man of unbending principles and unbreakable will. Like all of the Mykene warriors, he lives to conquer and to kill. Dispatched by King Agamemnon to scout the defenses of the golden city of Troy, he is Helikaon’s sworn enemy. Andromache is a priestess of Thera betrothed against her will to Hektor, prince of Troy. Scornful of tradition, skilled in the arts of war, and passionate in the ways of her order, Andromache vows to love whom she pleases and to live as she desires. Now fate is about to thrust these three together–and, from the sparks of passionate love and hate, ignite a fire that will engulf the world.

Download or read book The Silver of the Sierra Madre written by John Mason Hart and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the great barranca known today as Copper Canyon, the small mining town of Batopilas once experienced a silver bonanza among the largest ever known. American investors, believing that Mexico offered an unexploited cornucopia, began purchasing mines in the Sierra Madre, seeking to expand their hold on natural resources outside U.S. borders. From 1861 until the Revolution of 1910, the men of the Batopilas Mining Company ruled the region using their wealth, armed might, and extensive connections. The technology, industrialism, and politics their interests brought to this remote community tied the Tarahumara, Yaqui, Mayo, and other peoples of the barrancas directly to the economies of the United States and China. Local society was revolutionized, and a dramatic tapestry of human interactions was created. Based on many volumes of mining company records, The Silver of the Sierra Madre exposes the mentality and methods of mine owners John Robinson and Alexander “Boss” Shepherd, vividly detailing their exploitation of the people and the natural resources of Chihuahua. Hart aptly demonstrates the human and financial losses resulting from President Porfirio Díaz’s development programs, which relied on foreign investors, foreign managers, and foreign technology. This unprecedented work also provides a highly interesting ethnographic and social description of one of the least-known areas of Mexico. It is a tale of power and desperation, respect and arrogance, adventure and tragedy, and, ultimately, triumph and survival.

Download or read book The Silver Affair written by Bob Sugar and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-02-11 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When part of a five-man unit of special operatives learns that Master Sergeant Avery Franks is being held in a mountain compound in France, the team sets operations in motion to get Franks out. The bandits, holding Avery, are under some illusion that the United States Military would be willing to make a swape. One American for six of theirs. That was not how Colonel Reade’s team operated. Even if a raid to free Franks were not sanctioned, Darren---the team’s captain---the Colonel, Reis Sabette, and Dave Wolf would have tried a rescue mission no matter what the consequences. The Colonel’s team was a splinter group before the forming of the Green Berets and operated outside of usual protocol, engaging in covert operations that others could not undertake. In this operation, the team annihilates the enemy and finds Franks along with a French citizen who talks of seeing silver ingots placed inside of an underground vault. The team is intrigued, but with the threat of a further enemy encounter looming, they don’t have the time to investigate. Later, a nagging curiosity brings the now-retired team back together to launch one final--- and possible lucrative---mission. But the operation has already been compromised, and nobody knows how or why.

Book excerpt: This ebundle includes: Mystic, Mystic Dragon, Mystic Skies Apprentice. Mystic. Master. In this enchanting epic fantasy series from Jason Denzel–the founder of Dragonmount.com–a restless, low-born teenager will defy both law and tradition to prove her own worth and begin to unravel the secrets of the Myst, the underlying energy at the heart of the universe. Mystic: For hundreds of years, high-born nobles have competed for the chance to learn of the Myst: the underlying energy that lives at the heart of the universe. Once in a very great while, they take an apprentice, always from the most privileged sects of society. Such has always been the tradition-until a new High Mystic takes her seat and chooses Pomella AnDone, a restless, low-born teenager, as a candidate. As the trials unfold, Pomella navigates a deadly world of intolerance and betrayal, unaware that ruthless conspirators intend to make her suffer for having the audacity to seek to unravel the secrets of the Myst. Mystic Dragon: Seven years have passed since lowborn Pomella AnDone became an unlikely Mystic’s apprentice. Though she has achieved much in a short time, Pomella feels the burden of being a Mystic more than ever. The Mystical realm of Fayün is threatening to overtake the mortal world, and as the two worlds slowly blend together, the land is thrown into chaos. People begin to vanish or are killed outright, and Mystics from across the world gather to protect them. Among them is Shevia, a haunted and brilliant prodigy whose mastery of the Myst is unlike anything Pomella has ever seen—and as Shevia’s dark intentions become more clear, Pomella fears she may be unstoppable. Mystic Skies: The world is Changed. On the island of Moth, the Barons have declared the Myst illegal and imprisoned all Mystics under house arrest. Under the watchful eyes of deadly Hunters, a much-older Pomella AnDone now lives as a prisoner at Kelt Apar with her granddaughter and apprentice Mia, as well as the rapidly declining High Mystic of Moth, Yarina Sineese. In this epic conclusion to Jason Denzel's The Mystic Trilogy, which spans decades and timeless realms and dreams, Pomella must confront her greatest and most personal challenge yet. For the Deep mysteries of the world will reveal themselves only to the most powerful and dedicated of Mystics.
