When King Arthur faces a challenge for his crown from the reinvigorated Roman Empire, he must call his supporters from every corner of the British Isles. One of these, Sir Lucan - the Black Wolf of the North - has more reason than most to join the coming campaign. Lucan's beautiful wife, Trelawna, hoping to lead a new, better life in Italy, absconded with a young Roman officer. Lucan, already a fierce warrior but now with tainted blood due to his battle with the Penharrow Worm, thus turns the mission into a bitter personal vendetta. His former squire, Alaric, soon comes to fear for his overlord's soul, but is more afraid still for the safety of Lady Trelawna, whom he always loved from a distance. Meanwhile, the Roman family Trelawna has fallen in with are the influential Malconi clan, and their matriarchal head is the sorceress Zenobia. She sees it as her motherly duty to stop Lucan with any demonic force she can summon?

Famous Adventures and Prison Escapes of the Civil War (Civil War Classics) by Basil Wilson Duke,Civil War Classics Pdf
To commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the end of the Civil War, Diversion Books is publishing seminal works of the era: stories told by the men and women who led, who fought, and who lived in an America that had come apart at the seams. For those who did not die on the battlefield, but who were instead taken prisoner, the Civil War presented an even more intense version of hell. Prison conditions were abysmal, and the prisoners frequently died of starvation and disease. These accounts of prison escapes show what desperate men will do, fleeing unequivocal peril to land behind enemy lines, struggling to get back to their own side and live to fight another day. Searing and difficult, this account puts readers into the minds of men at the precipice, willing to risk death for freedom.
Stephen Kingäó»s Modern Macabre by Patrick McAleer,Michael A. Perry Pdf
As Stephen King has continued to publish numerous works beyond one of the many high points of his career, in the 1980s, scholarship has not always kept up with his output. This volume presents 13 essays (12 brand new) on many of King’s recent writings that have not received the critical attention of his earlier works. This collection is grouped into three categories—“King in the World Around Us,” “Spotlight on The Dark Tower” and “Writing into the Millennium”; each examines an aspect of King’s contemporary canon that has yet to be analyzed.
In a moment where unlawful pipelines are built on Indigenous territories, the RCMP make illegal arrests of land defenders on unceded lands, and anti-Indigenous racism permeates on social media; the government lie that is reconciliation is exposed. Renowned lawyer, author, speaker and activist, Pamela Palmater returns to wade through media headlines and government propaganda and get to heart of key issues lost in the noise. Warrior Life: Indigenous Resistance and Resurgence is the second collection of writings by Palmater. In keeping with her previous works, numerous op-eds, media commentaries, YouTube channel videos and podcasts, Palmater’s work is fiercely anti-colonial, anti-racist, and more crucial than ever before. Palmater addresses a range of Indigenous issues — empty political promises, ongoing racism, sexualized genocide, government lawlessness, and the lie that is reconciliation — and makes the complex political and legal implications accessible to the public. From one of the most important, inspiring and fearless voices in Indigenous rights, decolonization, Canadian politics, social justice, earth justice and beyond, Warrior Life is an unflinching critique of the colonial project that is Canada and a rallying cry for Indigenous peoples and allies alike to forge a path toward a decolonial future through resistance and resurgence.

Beautiful Magic Doctor Allures The King by Xue Xue Pdf
A car accident had caused her to become a wisp of a green soul, but it had actually attached itself to the body of a young lady of an official. "Since I'm here, I might as well settle down." Fang Zijun consoled himself. She received a piece of news that caused her to be stunned with her eyes wide open. One month later, they would be entering the palace for the talent show? With her title of doctor returning to the country, it shouldn't be too arduous for her to stay in the palace for three years! It was a pity that his luck had made a fool of him and offended someone he shouldn't have. "Woman, if you can't cure This King's illness, don't even think of leaving!" The man's sinister gaze, taking advantage of his pale face, trembled with fear! "Woman, you can only be This King's woman in your life!" The man lightly smiled. With a crafty gaze, he was extremely proud. "Woman, even if you have already gone to the underworld, This King will still find you and bring you back!" It was a bit domineering, with a heart piercing regret that made him wish he was dead, but there was nothing more he could do. Last night, the westerly wind withered the jade-green trees. Alone on the tall building, looking at the road, several entanglement, things are different. Once the lead flower was washed away, one would be standing on top of the imperial court, scheming to rule the world! On the palace wall, the faint smile from yesterday could be heard. After a few peach blossoms had drifted down, it was as if he was in the afterlife.
