Book excerpt: No story is as daring or as endearing as The Treasures of Drumory. Once read, a part of it will reside in a corner of your mind forever. Susjee Booth was once described as a mutation of a mutation: an incredibly small, strikingly disfigured little boy who came to possess extraordinary powers. Others described him as an alien, a description that would have amused his parents. For they hated him and came to abandon him in a remote area of the Scottish Highlands that happened to be the setting for a mini utopian state. In such a secretive and guarded society, a wandering individual such as he would be considered a grave and intolerable threat. As events unfold, he is befriended by two Drumorian boys: Qwon and Masoo, and in gratitude, he aims to serve them with blind obedience using his special powers. However, the trio's exploits whilst eye-opening and wildly exciting for the Aldie boys, prove extremely dangerous and inevitably incur the wrath of their town council who will do anything to protect their secret society. They order the boys to renounce Susjee but Qwon at least cannot bring himself to do so. He runs away with Susjee and the council are forced to send out a special squad to bring him back. Their instructions are clear: if Sujee interferes, shoot him.

Book excerpt: This great swashbuckling trilogy concludes with the Drumorians trying to hoodwink Morgan (a female reporter from the outside world), into believing they live a simple lifestyle. They invite her to one of their gatherings, which transforms her whole outlook on life. She also becomes interested in Arroy, who has been assigned as her guide for the day. Presently, the Gunns start to ambush and kill Drumorians on their own territory. And when the time comes for Vye Ada's squad to escort Morgan out of Drumory, they are ambushed and she barely escapes with her life. Arroy has to rescue her but by then, the only refuge he can find from the pursuing Gunns is the sacred treasure cave. Love blossoms between them and Arroy commits treason, revealing the truth to her about the Drumorian way. In doing so, he hopes the council will feel obliged to offer her a place among them. Meanwhile, the Gunns are on the warpath and when Arroy spies them from No Man's ridge trying to outflank a great Drumorian army, he decides to battle his way through their lines to join his comrades. By this time, Susjee has been enlisted into the Drumorian army and when the deciding battle commences, his pure, gentle nature - if not his loyalty to Qwon and the Drumorians in general, is put to the ultimate test.

Download or read book Moon of Popping Trees written by Rex Alan Smith and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1981-01-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last significant clash of arms in the American Indian Wars took place on December 29, 1890, on the banks of Wounded Knee Creek in South Dakota. Of the 350 Teton Sioux Indians there, two-thirds were women and children. When the smoke cleared, 84 men and 62 women and children lay dead, their bodies scattered along a stretch of more than a mile where they had been trying to flee. Of some 500 soldiers and scouts, about 30 were dead—some, probably, from their own crossfire. Wounded Knee has excited contradictory accounts and heated emotions. To answer whether it was a battle or a massacre, Rex Alan Smith goes further into the historical records and cultural traditions of the combatants than anyone has gone before. His work results in what Alvin Josephy Jr., editor of American Heritage, calls "the most definitive and unbiased" account of all, Moon of Popping Trees.
