From Hell with Love (The Forsaken Comedy Book 1) by Kevin Kauffmann (196 Reviews)    Price verified 48 minutes ago

Damned to Hell after a life of misery, Niccolo da Firenze soon discovered Lucifer's prison was not what the Church had always claimed. His new home was a breath of fresh air, Lucifer was a wise and gentle leader, and Niccolo quickly rose through the ranks and became the Horseman of Pestilence. Surrounded by new family and friends, accepted despite his faults, Niccolo would often forget his part in the coming Apocalypse. That bliss came to an end once Cadmus, the Horseman of Death, inherits a vision of Lucifer's murder. So, with his fellow Horseman by his side, Niccolo begins his frantic journey to uncover a conspiracy involving ancient demons, corrupted humans and even a few gods. This is a story about the Horsemen of the Apocalypse and how they rode to save the Devil. *Author's Note: This series was given a major editing overhaul in June 2020, so it should be even more enjoyable than what is described in earlier reviews.

I still think it reads funny, the language and all, but I kind of like it for some reason. It seems to calm me, somehow. You know what I mean?" "What little book, Mamma? My book was stolen, you know that." "Well, I thought maybe the police recovered it for you. It was lying right here on the end table like always when I came home from the grocers this afternoon."

A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume One by Michael G Kramer OMIEAust. (19 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

The Allied war effort in Indochina (the French colonies of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam) was a war of aggression which allowed many millions of US dollars of arms sales. All allied service men that I cam into contact with did their duties to the best of their abilities. As an Australian serving with the First Battalion Royal Australian Regiment in Vietnam during 1968 - 1969, I feel that it is my duty to inform readers of how the Australian infantry soldiers saw the war and how they felt about fighting the Vietnamese. Because of the fact that this story is so vast, I am splitting the full story into two volumes. "A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume One cover events in Indochina from 1770 to 1975, when the Americans withdrew from Vietnam after loosing more than 50,000 war dead. It must be remembered that the US army has a rate of 10 soldiers in support for every "Grunt" at the "Sharp End". When viewed in this way, the American KIA figure for the the Twelve years of US involvement is ...
