Now, years later, he's the toast of the ton and finally in a position to give Anna a taste of her own, bitter medicine...

Having lived her life mourning the loss of love and envying other people's adventures, the opportunity arises for Anna to have an adventure on her own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The price for vengeance must always be paid… No matter what. Caelum may have stopped his father, but in the process, he lost more than he’d ever planned. The syren who had slowly been winning his heart over was gone, taken by the very woman she once owed her life to, and Caelum was now wanted for his father’s murder. In the chaos of the aftermath, Caelum must deal with his grief, and with the other syrens, who only seem determined to make his life more difficult as he searches for Brigid. Brigid is in agony. As if watching her best friend die in front of her wasn’t enough, she’d been ripped beneath the waves and brought to pay penance to the goddess she’d once sworn fealty to. But the syren queen seems determined to never cease her torture, not until Brigid has paid for her sins in blood. Resigning herself that she will never see the man she’d given up everything for, Brigid retreats into herself. The only way to endure the wrath of the syren queen is to shut down and silently hope that someone would come for her. But Brigid knows better than to hope. And her body is quickly giving out. When whispers of a mysterious witch with the ability to grant any wish reach Caelum, he’s willing to do whatever it takes to get Brigid back, including giving up that which he holds most dear. And so, the syrens and the crew set off on the dangerous journey to the south to find anything that will lead them to Brigid. But nothing worth having ever comes easy, and neither Caelum or Brigid have ever backed down from a challenge.

Book excerpt: Fresh off a fearsome encounter with the Neverland crocodile, Jocelyn Hook decides the most practical plan is to hunt down her father's famous fortune. After all, she'll need the gold to fund her adventuring in the future. (And luckily, Hook left her the map.) But the map proves to be a bit harder to crack than Jocelyn had hoped, and she's convinced that the horrible Peter Pan might be the only one with the answers. Of course, he doesn't really feel like helping her, so Jocelyn takes the only reasonable course of action left to her: she kidnaps his mother. Evie, though, is absolutely thrilled to be taken prisoner, so Jocelyn's daring ploy doesn't have quite the effect she'd planned for. Along with the problem of her all-too-willing captive, Jocelyn must also contend with Captain Krueger, whose general policy is that no deed is too dastardly when it comes to stealing Hook's treasure. And with the ever-shifting Whens of the Neverland working against her as well, Jocelyn, Evie, Roger, and the rest of the Hook's Revenge crew have their work cut out for them. In this rambunctious showdown between characters new and old, Jocelyn puts her own brand of pirating to the test in a quest to save her future and those she loves. Praise for Hook's Revenge "Whether a fan of J.M. Barrie's classic tale or new to Neverland, readers will be clamoring for more from this enchanting world." -- School Library Journal, starred review "Readers will delight both the story and the storytelling." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, starred review "Featuring a lively, colorful cast, and a droll narration with snarky asides by an anonymous, self-proclaimed pirate authority, this entertaining take on the Peter Pan story neatly blends action-adventure and comical and heartfelt moments." -- Booklist

Book excerpt: Phantom is the colorful moniker that befell the infamous pirate Captain of the Eleven Devils. To the pious people of Samsara, he is the villain, known for his cunning and cruelty. But to the villagers of Kheli, he is quite the opposite. Without the raids Phantom orchestrates, the island of Kheli would fall to the tyranny of Samsara's Prime Minister. But he doesn't want to be their hero. He dreams of the open ocean and to take his devils - the crew he considers family - to the edges of the map and beyond. Far enough to rewrite the maps completely. First, he has to fulfill his promises. The ones he made to every devil on his ship that they and their families would have freedom. A promise unfulfilled while the island is dictated by the Minister. But the Captain has a plan to capture a songbird and a Stone and trade them in ransom to the Minister for Kheli. Only, she is not what he expected.

Download or read book The Book of Revenge written by Dragan Todorovic and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2011-04-13 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A darkly comic recollection of a country that no longer exists, and a lyrical examination of the importance of taking a stand when it counts. Set against a backdrop of horrific world events, this is narrative non-fiction at its best. To a young boy growing up poor but happy in an industrial town in Serbia, politics means many national holidays that result in parades, piglets roasting on a spit, and getting to see both his hard-working parents at the same time. An observant child, Dragan Todorovic quickly learns the power of words. Even before he can read or write, he is mesmerized by the squiggles made by the grownups around him and diligently recreates them in the notebooks he carries with him always. He also learns that reciting naughty limericks usually yields some chocolate. This love of words eventually takes Dragan to Belgrade, as editor for a cultural magazine. He hopes to inspire and support the young and innovative artists of the time, but soon discovers that naughty articles do not yield the same results as limericks, and he finds himself constantly clashing with the system. His many questions get only one answer: he is drafted into the army. Dragan survives his tour of duty, but his return to Belgrade is unsettling. Everything is changing, rapidly. Friendships are collapsing, conversations are guarded, nothing is as it seems. Bit by bit, the country he knows and loves is being torn apart. Filled with great characters and poignant and often hilarious stories, The Book of Revenge is a superb duet of a citizen and his country, a universal exploration of just what it is that inoculates the human spirit from dangerous ideologies and toxic nationalism.
Download or read book Journey Of Revenge written by David Z. Price and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-05-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We must be very careful of how we raise our children. If the wrong message is sent to the child, the end result can be tragic. Children are very impressionable and are born with the desire to please their parents. It is a parent’s responsibility to raise the child into adulthood in a proper manner. There are no good templates to follow or precise instructions for the creation of a well-rounded child. That would be far too simple. Parents must remember that a perfect child does not exist. They also must remember that a child needs to be a child. Each child is very different and each child requires special attention that can only be given by loving parents. If but one parent or future parent reads this book and realizes the potential effect of their actions on a child, and changes their parenting approach, then I have done my job. This novel reflects the effect of an overbearing abusive parent on a child. The child, Zeke, possesses the ability to fully remember everything since he was three years old. Zeke is both physically and mentally abused by a controlling mother, Marie, who is relentless in her quest to prove to the boy that he is evil and worthless. Zeke grows up through childhood to believe that he is really the monster that his mother makes him out to be. Zeke is driven to seclusion early in life by Marie. He only feels safe when he is alone where nobody can see or touch him. He is safe only in a world where he is the one in control and he makes the decisions. Zeke’s father, James, is a workaholic and is seldom around to realize the abuse that goes on during his absence. Marie uses James to administer punishment to the boy for infractions that are blown out of proportion by her anger toward the child. The reality is that Marie never wanted the child and she blames James for the existence of the boy. The truth is that James fears being at home with Marie as much as Zeke does. The control and abuse doesn’t stop with Zeke, it also filters down to James. The story follows Zeke through school where he is constantly in trouble with other children and school officials. His punishment for his behavior is severe and his anger toward the world increases as each day passes. In each case where he is wronged, he must retaliate. Zeke fully understands right from wrong, but he can’t control his anger and hatred. He won’t even try, why should he? His only friend in life, Tony, suffers a tragic death at a very young age and Zeke blames himself for not being able to save him. He feels that if he had only listened to Tony that he could have saved him. That guilt follows Zeke for the rest of his life. He has his first romantic interlude at an early age with a young female neighbor. His trust and ability to care about females is further damaged by the actions of this young lady. Marie has laid the groundwork for Zeke to possess the power to hate when he is rejected. He will not be controlled by anyone. He will be the one who controls each situation. Only Zeke’s feelings matter anymore. Zeke begins to suffer from reoccurring nightmares that haunt him almost daily. He can’t escape them and they continue to burn their way into his mind. A faceless demon with a blood dripping dagger chases him relentlessly in his nightmares. The nightmare intensifies over the years until one day he sees the face of the demon clearly. During the story Zeke’s life crosses the path of an undesirable vagrant named Whitey. He proves to be an individual that needs to be dealt with. Whitey is just another person who tries to control and abuse Zeke. Zeke’s quest to get even with Whitey takes him to a place in his mind that he will travel numerous times in the future. Many chose to cross Zeke during his life and he comes up with unique ways to deal with these individuals. Zeke believes that those who wrong him deserve to be punished and no punishment is too great for those who betray him. Zeke escapes his life at home through the help of James, only to find that life aw

Captain Thorne-- sails the high seas with only one goal: vengeance against the man who murdered her sister.

He's never encountered a threat he hasn't conquered, and no half-sized pirate wench is going to break his record of victory. THE SURRENDER Now, the duel of wits and desire that began the moment they first laid blazing eyes on each other is about to play out in a collision course of passionate adventure...as two formidable opponents discover the ecstasy of surrendering to the only force stronger than themselves: love.
