Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the quaint town of Windmore, where history whispers from every corner, Tia Lancaster lived as an outsider, her heart tethered to the mysteries and tales of old. But the arrival of a mysterious new neighbor, Alex, sets her on a path that would unravel her very existence and reveal a destiny far beyond her wildest dreams. "Guardian of Windmore" is not just a story; it's an epic journey through the veiled layers of a town steeped in secrets, a family legacy of guardianship, and the unyielding power of magic that resides within and around us. As Tia's once ordinary life becomes entwined with ancient prophecies and dark forces, she discovers that she is the latest in a long line of guardians tasked with protecting Windmore from a malevolent darkness that seeks to consume it. With Alex by her side, Tia begins to unearth her powers, a force so potent yet so foreign, that it threatens to overwhelm her. But as she delves deeper into her family's past and the town's history, she realizes that the darkness is closer and more personal than she ever imagined. Betrayal comes from where she least expects it, shattering her world and forcing Tia to question everything she believed to be true. The betrayal not only leaves her heartbroken but also strengthens her resolve. Tia finds herself standing at the precipice of a battle that had been brewing for centuries, with Windmore and its people caught in the balance. Armed with newfound powers and a deep love for her town, Tia rallies the community, discovering allies in unlikely places—among them, the hidden mages of Windmore, and the ordinary townsfolk, whose spirit proves to be as indomitable as her own. The narrative weaves through Tia's struggles to master her abilities, the complexities of her relationship with Alex, and the tension that builds as the darkness draws closer. Each character she meets along the way is richly developed, adding layers of intrigue and depth to the story. From the wise old bookstore owner who knows more than he lets on, to the skeptical local sheriff whose loyalty to the town is unwavering, each adds a piece to the puzzle of Windmore's past and present. As the final battle looms, Tia is faced with the ultimate choice—sacrifice everything she loves or watch Windmore fall into shadow. The climactic confrontation is a testament to her growth, a fierce display of power and determination that binds the town together in a fight for survival. The darkness is relentless, but Tia's connection to the ley lines, the guardians before her, and the people of Windmore forge a weapon no evil can withstand. "Guardian of Windmore" transcends the boundaries of traditional fantasy, blending elements of mystery, historical intrigue, and magical realism to create a world that is as immersive as it is enchanting. It is a story of finding strength in vulnerability, unity in diversity, and light in the darkest of places. Through Tia's journey, readers are reminded of the power of community, the importance of guarding our heritage, and the unbreakable bond that forms when people come together to fight for a common cause. As the dust settles and Windmore emerges from the shadow, forever changed yet undefeated, Tia looks to the future with hope. The darkness may return, but she and her town are ready—together, they stand as a beacon of resilience, guardians not just of Windmore, but of the light that dwells within us all. "Guardian of Windmore" is a testament to the enduring power of love and the unyielding courage of the human spirit, a captivating tale that will linger with readers long after the last page is turned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'We are all Zapatistas.' Subcomandante MarcosThis book began in 1994, when Zapatista Subcomandante Marcos replied to a 10-year-old girl from Mexico City who had sent him a drawing. The ensuing collection of related tales about the warrior-beetle, narrated by his pipe-smoking, black-ski-masked human squire is an extraordinary account for the general reader of current global political struggle.Marcos created a humorous fictitious character, Don Durito, a beetle with Quixotic fantasies which regards Marcos as his Sancho Panza. In this book, Marcos creates a new political genre, so-called "postdata": ironical commentaries which he affixes to his formal communiqués or declarations. In one of them he even offers to perform a striptease for government negotiators.'We are the product of 500 years of struggle...They [Mexican government] don't care that we have nothing, absolutely nothing, not even a roof over our heads; no land, no work, no health care, no food, no education... nor is there peace nor justice for ourselves and our children. But today, we say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!' First EZLN declaration of war, December 31st 1993The Zapatistas are not Marxist, Rightists, or Anarchists. They seek not to replace one infrastructure of power with another, thus rejecting the normal goal of an armed struggle. They are armed but do not use violence as a tool to expand their aims. Although a localized rebellion, the Zapatistas are unified in a worldwide struggle that transcends the mainstream media's limited perspective through eloquent dictations distributed globally via the Internet.With a fresh perspective and tactics that have never been seen in relation to an armed insurrection, the EZLN (Zapatista National Liberation Army) has changed the definition of what revolution means. From the marginalized confines of the poorest region in Mexico, a new concept of revolutionary change with a new solution to societies woes is currently being proposed.
