Yet no sooner is she awarded his position, title, and wealth when she is called upon to lead the nation's warriors in the first full scale battle she has ever experienced, against an enemy who take no prisoners. With the very real possibility that Alexis might not survive the battle, Duncan is left alone to fend for himself. Calling himself a Wizard of the Universe, he is brought before the Council of Prelates to explain his obvious heresy.

Elizabeth Suzannah Dupree lives a pampered life on a Georgia plantation surrounded by her family and friends. "Zasu," as she is affectionately known, wants nothing more than to run the orange grove plantation when her father retires and live her life in peace. She has no use for society parties, gossip, or even worse, a husband. Which suits the men of Savannah just fine, for, as beautiful as she may be, no one wants an independent, business-minded woman like Zasu for a wife. But when Zasu meets dashing lawyer Gray Talbot, everything changes. Serious and quiet, Gray doesn't wave away her ambitions as fanciful or remind her of her place in society. Instead, he treats her as an equal, and makes her question her decision not to marry. But Gray is hiding secrets, secrets that will threaten their newfound admiration for each other... Gray Talbot is an abolitionist. And preaching abolition in the South during the Civil War is dangerous. Despite threats and violence, Gray doggedly pursues his desire to see all people free and treated equally. But falling in love with a slave-holding Southern woman wasn't part of the plan. As the Civil War looms with the election of Abraham Lincoln, the slaves on the Dupree Plantation are also affected. Abused at the hands of a white man, Zasu's maid, Renny, begins to open her eyes to the idea that there is more to life than living in bondage. When war breaks out, throwing the South and their way of life into chaos, Renny and her family must decide whether to remain on the plantation or take the dangerous route to freedom. And when tragedy occurs on the plantation, Zasu must decide what she truly believes and where her heart lies.

Storm at Sunset by Ian Hall (Lume Books) (95 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

The end is only the beginning... Aircraftman Arthur Brownlow and his wife Joy are among the cheering thousands in London celebrating VE Day in May 1945. But the young couple have heard the chastening words of Winston Churchill: "We may allow ourselves a brief period of rejoicing; but let us not forget for a moment the toil and efforts that lie ahead. Japan, with all her treachery and greed, remains unsubdued. We must now devote all our strength and resources to the completion of our task, both at home and abroad." Arthur knows that he is not, like many of his fellow conscripted airmen, about to be demobbed. He is to be sent to the Far East as a member of 31 Squadron RAF, which is equipped with a fleet of battered Dakotas ferrying supplies into remote jungle bases and bringing out a wretched human cargo from Japanese internment camps. Even after the Japanese surrender, it's grim work for Brownlow and fellow crew members. They keep a stiff upper lip, but harmony is threatened with the arrival of a subversive Glaswegian docker Jock Patterson and his mutinous message. However, life is not without its lighter moments - and wireless operator Freddie falls in love with Nelli who, following her release from internment, is working with the RAF. Her Dutch origins hint at the country's history under colonial rule. Resentment at centuries of colonisation, first by the West then by the Japanese, is coming to the surface, and the RAF men are soon to feel the backlash in the most horrific way possible.

Kix. It is a name that, well... isn't really acceptable at all, even as an appellation for travelling unnoticed. Having to hike to her destination on foot isn't acceptable either. Even worse than both of those, however, is the bumbling servant at her side, and yet all are indignities the demon king must now endure - all because of a botched resurrection. It is that resurrection, and the state in which it has left her, which now drives Kix to suffer through all of those degradations and more. After all, there simply has to be a way to fix what's been done to her somewhere, and it certainly isn't in the useless backwater village of Midnow. She merely has to find it, and the first step along the path to doing so lies in the town of Ovhi, a wizard known by the locals as 'Old Thunderbolt'. Of course, Kix resents having to rely on the expertise of a paltry, hedge wizard from some frontier town. The chances that someone like that will know anything useful are infuriatingly slim. Still, Ovhi has to be less insufferable than what she's leaving behind, and any progress would be better than none at all. She is even due to get some proper clothes made for her while she's there. What sort of price in aggravation will she have to pay, though, to receive that which she desires? And who is this strange girl with blue twintails who seems to keep popping up everywhere she goes?
