Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Towers of Ilium As the straw of immemorial times has always indicated where blows the wind. so incidents of seeming trivial importance in the life of a child have often in them coming history writ large for those who have eyes and can see. It was therefore a significant occasion when a thoroughly estimable young Sunday School teacher undertook, upon a certain mild and peaceful Sabbath, to impress upon her class in general, and upon little June Ferriss in particular, the meaning and importance of infant baptism. Until that particular Sabbath, the Sabbaths known to June were indicative of new shoes and clothes. Sunday School was a bright and cheerful place where little boys and girls with exceptionally clean faces appeared in an ever-fascinating round of these delightful articles of wear. Of course there were estimable young women, and also young men, who explained things from the Bible and who gave them estimable little books for Christmas presents. But the Bible explanations savoured rather strongly of Hans Christian Andersen's tales, without being as interesting, while the little books were always about good little girls and boys whom they never seemed to meet in their own schools, so the little books were not interesting at all.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Allerton Towers, Vol. 3: A Novel Indeed her Impulses in this direction are so strong, that she holds - not perhaps quite an Olive branch, but unquestionably an olive twig-out to Fanny, in the form of an offer to superintend the selection of that young lady's trousseau. But Fanny, who is positively twitching with impatience to show and assert her independence of, and superiority to, people in general, and Mrs. Templeton in particular, rejects the offer with contumely, and quotes a noble and antique aunt 'of Lord Monks town's as being ready and willing to take the trouble of ordering all the delicate and dainty linen off her hands.

Book excerpt: Beneath the gaze of the gods, the mighty armies of Greece and Troy met in fierce and glorious combat, scrupulously following the text set forth in Homer's timeless narrative. But that was before twenty-first-century scholar Thomas Hockenberry stirred the bloody brew, causing an enraged Achilles to join forces with his archenemy Hector and turn his murderous wrath on Zeus and the entire pantheon of divine manipulators; before the swift and terrible mechanical creatures that catered for centuries to the pitiful idle remnants of Earth's human race began massing in the millions, to exterminate rather than serve. And now all bets are off.
