Into the Americas (A novel based on a true story) by Lance Morcan (Sterling Gate Books) (884 Reviews)    Price verified 39 minutes ago

INTO THE AMERICAS (A novel based on a true story) is a gritty, real-life adventure based on one of history's greatest survival stories. It was inspired by the diary entries of young English blacksmith John Jewitt during his time aboard the brigantine The Boston and also during his sojourn at Nootka Sound, on North America's western seaboard, from 1802 to 1805. Written by father-and-son writing team Lance & James Morcan (authors of The World Duology and The Orphan Trilogy), INTO THE AMERICAS is a tale of two vastly different cultures - Indigenous North American and European civilization - colliding head on. It is also a Romeo and Juliet story set in the wilderness. Nineteen year-old blacksmith John Jewitt is one of only two survivors after his crewmates clash with the fierce Mowachaht tribe in the Pacific Northwest. A life of slavery awaits John and his fellow survivor, a belligerent American sailmaker, in a village ruled by the iron fist of Maquina, the all-powerful chief. Desperate to taste freedom again, they make several doomed escape attempts over mountains and sea. Only their value to the tribe and John's relationship with Maquina prevents their captors from killing them. As the seasons pass, John 'goes Indian' after falling in love with Eu-stochee, a beautiful maiden. This further alienates him from his fellow captive whose defiance leads to violent consequences. In the bloodshed that follows, John discovers another side to himself - a side he never knew existed and a side he detests. His desire to be reunited with the family and friends he left behind returns even stronger than before. The stakes rise when John learns Eu-stochee is pregnant. When a final opportunity to escape arises, he must choose between returning to civilization or staying with Eu-stochee and their newborn son. INTO THE AMERICAS has been adapted to a feature film screenplay and is in early development with Morcan Motion Pictures.

And unlike him, she's on the right side of the bars. Charlotte's barely had chance to spread her wings when the violent attack on her brother crash lands her into lawyer Vinny's life. Yet, nothing is going to stop her. Not the intense connection they share. Not when he has a wife. Not the fact her prison life and his top case are linked. Not how she's left questioning who else is corrupt. Not even a broken heart. About the only thing Charlotte Croft is now sure of is this: she only has one life... and she is going to live it. But everything has a price, even freedom. Just how much will she pay for hers? Jailbird will have you turning from the first page to the last. A heart-warming, funny thriller of a love story with more twists and turns than a helter-skelter! Contemporary, witty and sharp... you won't be able to put it down.

M & Dee: A Wanderlust Love Story, based on True Events. by Marianne Madson (26 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

"Have I become a ghost? All I hear is divorcee, adulteress whispered behind my back while you get high fives. Dee please tell me, you never told anyone... about Sam." The book blurb is from M and Dee, my groovy early seventies pop culture memoir. The reviews describe M and Dee as an authentic 70s sounding groovy read, which it should because it really happened. So, with that said, instead of me describing the book, below is what the readers have said about M and Dee. "Ah, the 70s. This book captures well the free spirited, hitch-hiking, back-packing, train riding, grass smoking, free loving, relationship developing era of the early to mid-70's. The story contains humor, insights, quirks, and romance, but in the end it is a tragedy of the most unusual kind. Don't try to figure out the ending. You can't." "Groovy Baby, the characters developed nicely and it really had a good vibe to it and the language was very authentic." "A modern day retelling of the classic star-crossed lovers tale." "I loved this story and really got into the groovy 70s scene which was so which was so poignantly depicted." Great wanderlust read.

Embrace of Shadows : An Adventure Isekai Fantasy Litrpg Stories by Venuslourde (1 Review)    Price verified 3 hours ago

In a realm foreign to my own, inhabiting a form battered and weary, I resorted to the primal instinct of survival. My focus narrowed solely on my plans and objectives. My allegiance and protection extended only to those within my inner circle and those who pledged their loyalty to me. He does not belong to either category. I am ignorant of his existence, and I have no desire to acquaint myself with him. Yet, inexplicably, he permeates every corner I turn, a beacon of light in the darkness that envelops my soul. It defies logic. He shares my coldness and darkness, bearing little resemblance to the once radiant youth he was. His eyes should not gleam upon seeing me. Yet they do. And he should not harbor desires for me. Nonetheless, he pursues me with a fervor akin to a madman attempting to grasp a tempest within his grasp. It is an impossible endeavor, one that will consume him and reduce him to nothing but the obsession he holds for me. His fascination must be quelled. I mustn't allow it to escalate. But I never anticipated the allure of failure. "There exists no world that could sever our connection. No destiny that would deny me my counterpart. I would seek you out across every incarnation. Your soul is bound to mine," he declares, punctuating each proclamation with a tender touch upon my skin, a kiss upon my lips. He appears enthralled by his unrestricted access to me, his magic pulsating in the air around us, silently conveying his satisfaction. Meanwhile, my world whirls in chaotic disarray. Little does my prince realize the truth behind his words. You can only endure so many Isekai Novels featuring 'gentle' and 'innocent' female protagonists before reaching saturation :( I yearn for a protagonist who is cold and power-hungry, thus here is my endeavor. Enjoyyyy!

In 1929, four young German friends embark on a life-altering journey from the remnants of post-WWI Germany to the promise-filled streets of America. Dreaming of returning to their beloved hometown of Neisse as triumphant American citizens, their fate takes a dramatic twist in the heart of Berlin's teeming train station. A daring rescue of an American diplomat binds them in an enduring friendship, setting them on a path through the shattered illusions of the American dream, the harrowing depths of the Great Depression, and the challenging process of assimilating into a new culture. As the world plunges into the chaos of World War II, their lives diverge in ways they could never have imagined. Matthias finds himself in the paradoxical role of building ships in an American yard, aimed at the destruction of their homeland. Feliks, driven by a sense of duty, joins the US Army to fight against the Japanese in the Pacific, later aiding the Polish resistance in their homeland. Josef, caught in an ill-timed visit to Neisse, is swept into the ranks of the Wehrmacht, partaking in the invasions of France and Russia, and eventually coming face-to-face with Americans in the Battle of the Bulge. Meanwhile, Edo steps into the hallowed halls of the Nuremberg trials, contributing to the monumental task of bringing Nazi war criminals to justice. Their story is a tapestry of loyalty, betrayal, and the relentless grip of fate, weaving a compelling saga of friendship tested by war, ideology, and the quest for identity in a world coming undone.

Angels Give a Glimpse through All Time: Past-life readings told from 1970-1989 (Book with Wings 2) by Aka spiritual messengers of God Price verified 7 hours ago

"If you know where you have been you shall know where you are going." July 17, 1971, the spiritual messengers of God, Aka, said: "For all things that have been before shall be again. "For remember, we are not great. We are here for one purpose, that purpose is to prepare a way that God's children may return back to their many mansions. And for this to be done, we must prepare a way for the coming of the Messiah. "There are many things thy do not understand. Be not afraid to ask, and this knowledge shall be given unto thee."

Catching Zodiac: A True Crime Memoir With "Poste" Script by Dale Julin (18 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

In the Fall of 1969, The Zodiac Killer terrorized millions of San Francisco Bay Area residents. The psychopathic serial killer even threatened to shoot a busload of school kids. Decades later, one of those kids on the bus, now TV news anchor and investigative journalist Dale Julin, played the hunch of his life. In what his priest later jokingly called a case of divine intervention, Julin interviewed a homeless man, supposedly on the run for his life, because he figured out that "The Old Man," a father figure to him for decades, was the Zodiac Killer. Julin did not believe him. But then, using the old man's name... "Gary Francis Poste," Julin began to unlock the anagrams found in the strange teasing letters Zodiac sent to the newspapers. "Gary Francis Poste" turned out to be the Zodiac Killer's anagram cipher key long sought by both the FBI and cold case detectives. Using his actual name led to the creation of anagram solutions that turned out to be sick treasure maps. Maps that took Julin and an unlikely team of amateur investigators to a Lake Tahoe forest campground where Zodiac hid the bones of missing nurse Donna Lass. That discovery drove a deeply personal investigative journey that lasted for years. A journey that led to the inescapable conclusion that the Zodiac Killer was still alive, and still very dangerous.

Acts of the Apostles: A Greek Latin and English Parallel Text: Being an Aid for Adults to the Easier Learning of the Classical Languages (Greek and ... by Sean Gabb (Centre for Ancient Studies) Price verified 7 hours ago

This trilingual text of the Acts of the Apostles gives the original Greek, plus the Latin translation revised by St Jerome and the English of the Authorised Version. They are placed side by side, so that any passage in one language can be directly compared with one or both of the other two. The book is intended in part to assist students of The Bible. It is mainly intended, though, to help students who wish to learn Latin or Greek or both. If you want to learn Latin, you should first get hold of the shortest Latin grammar you can find. You must read through this, to get an overview. Do not try memorise the declensions and conjugations. The most you need is a vague awareness of how things like accusative cases and present participles look, and enough of an overview to know where to look if the English is not clear enough as a key to the grammar of the Latin. It is only when you start looking up particular issues that you should pay attention to things like ablative absolutes and subjunctives. Do not try in advance to learn the grammar. It is to be consulted not committed to memory. You now begin with 1:1 -- "primum quidem sermonem feci de omnibus o Theophile quae coepit Iesus facere et docere." Read it aloud so that you can familiarise yourself with the sound of the language. You then turn to the English -- "The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach." You puzzle out the Latin. "Primum" and "sermonem" you can guess from their English derivatives mean "former treatise." You may recall from your skimming of the grammar that nouns ending in m are likely to be direct objects. "Feci" seems to correspond with "have I made." "Omnibus" is used in English to mean the whole of something, and so probably means "all." "O Theophile" explains itself, though you may look in your grammar to confirm that it is a vocative case -- that is, a form showing that someone is being spoken to. And so you continue, corresponding Latin to ...
