Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Purse and the Sword presents a critical analysis of Israel's legal system in the context of its politics, history, and the forces that shape its society. This book examines the extensive powers that Israel's Supreme Court arrogated to itself since the 1980s and traces the history of the transformation of its legal system and the shifts in the balance of power between the branches of government. Centrally, this shift has put unprecedented power in the hands of both the Court and Israel's attorney general and state prosecution at the expense of Israel's cabinet, constituting its executive branch, and the Knesset--its parliament. The expansion of judicial power followed the weakening of the political leadership in the wake of the Yom Kippur war of 1973, and the election results in the following years. These developments are detailed in the context of major issues faced by modern Israel, including the war against terror, the conflict with the Palestinians, the Arab minority, settlements in the West Bank, state and religion, immigration, military service, censorship and freedom of expression, appointments to the government and to public office, and government policies. The aggrandizement of power by the legal system led to a backlash against the Supreme Court in the early part of the current century, and to the partial rebalancing of power towards the political branches.

Book excerpt: Literary Titans Silver Award winner, July 2024. “Grimm crafts a story of mythic proportions, seamlessly blending action with the rise and fall of this legendary civilization. The narrative unfolds through various perspectives and battles, immersing readers in the dynamic world of Atlantis.” Literary Titan Review, June 2024 “This is such a powerful blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and mythology. The author does an incredible job of world-building, delving into the civilizations of Atlantis and Rama and the cultures that brought these two civilizations to war.” Author Anthony Avina, June 2024 “This uses the mythology element in a way that I was looking for, it uses the Atlantis setting as a perfect backdrop. The war was realistic and enjoyed how everything worked with the plot of the story.” Goodreads, June 2024 What if Plato was right? If Atlantis was real... During the last Ice Age, the clash of steel and the roar of aircraft echo through the land as the empires of Atlantis and Rama wage a desperate war. The war raged for ten years when Atlantis started to use weapons of mass destruction. Risor sees the trap closing, but the mission commander refuses to withdraw. Threatening to take command, he forces her to order the retreat. That Risor is right makes matters only worse, turning the rivalry personal. Far to the west, Rogat takes command, only to find himself leading a rag-tag group of survivors, hounded in his every step by a superhuman hero of the gods bent on killing him. Follow these two and others in this gripping tale of war and survival that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Because revenge is such a satisfying reason to destroy a civilization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final instalment of the Last Dragonslayer Chronicles, demonstrating that with a small band of committed followers, a large tin of resolve and steely determination, almost anything can be achieved . . . Sixteen-year-old Jennifer Strange and her sidekick and fellow Orphan Tiger Prawns have been driven to the tip of the UnUnited Kingdoms - Cornwall - by the invasion of the Trolls. Their one defence is a six-foot-wide trench full of buttons, something which the Trolls find unaccountably terrifying (it's their clickiness). Worse than being eaten by Trolls is the prospect of the Mighty Shandar requisitioning the Quarkbeast and using him to achieve supreme power and domination - an ambition that has been four hundred years in the planning and which will ultimately leave the Earth a cold cinder, devoid of all life. Nothing has ever looked so bleak, but Jennifer, assisted by a renegade vegan Troll, a bunch of misfit sorcerers, the Princess (or is she now the ruler?) of the UnUnited (or are they now United?) Kingdoms, and Tiger, must find a way to vanquish the most powerful wizard the world has ever seen, and along the way discover the truth about her parents, herself, and what is in the locked glovebox of her VW Beetle . . .
