The Pistoleer - Edgehill by Skye Smith Pdf

Cover Flap In 1642 King Charles realized that he was losing control of England to parliament so he gathered an army to him in Nottingham. Since he couldn't beat the Reform Party in the House of Lords, in the courts, or in public opinion, instead he would kill or capture them. The seers had told Daniel that the ever colder winters and shorter growing seasons would bring violence to the kingdom, and now that prediction was coming true. He could no longer delay moving his clan to the New World, for the nobility were choosing sides, sons against fathers, brothers against brothers. Worst of all, mercenaries were being brought in from the brutal continental wars. When some of Daniel's clansmen were pressed into the king's service, he had no choice but to find them and rescue them. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name.

The Pistoleer - Slavers by Skye Smith Pdf

Cover Flap “What news do you bring from London?” Betty Cromwell asked him. “Anything that may prove dangerous to my Ollie?” “Shouldn't think so,” he said in a calming tone, “so long as he stays clear of Pym and his rabble rousers.” “But he is with Pym now, at a political rally in Cambridge.” He stood, turned, and threw his gun leathers over his shoulder as he strode out of the back door and into the sunshine. “I'm borrowing a horse.” She dropped to her knees to beseech the Lord to keep her husband safe, but instead she sniffed up her fears and called out after the tall pistoleer, “Oh please Daniel, keep my Ollie safe!” About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name.

The Pistoleer - Brentford by Skye Smith Pdf

Cover Flap After the Civil War Battle of Edgehill in late 1642, the rebel army marched north towards Warwick in parallel to the king's army. From high on the edge, Captain Daniel Vanderus watched the king's army through his spyglass, and saw them turn, turn south again towards Banbury. With the rebel army now going the wrong way, Banbury garrison was the only force standing between the king's army and London. So much for his plan of going home. He had to choose between warning Warwick and warning Banbury. He turned his sure footed mare towards Banbury and urged her to run. It was a decision that would eventually make him witness to the slaughter of Brentford. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name.

The Pistoleer - Pirates by Skye Smith Pdf

Cover Flap No one will ever know what Colonel Lunsford was thinking. Perhaps he was angered that his well trained war horse had stopped still and was nudging playfully at the lass. He drew his sabre from its sheath in a long practised swoop of his arm, a swoop which would end when the blade slashed flesh and the blood gushed. Daniel could not believe his eyes when he saw the glint of the sabre, the very sabre that Daniel had handed back to this officer on the battlefield once he had surrendered it. The Wyred sisters who wove irony into the fates of men were always perverse. Would sparing this man's life in Newbourne now cost him a daughter here in London. He flipped his winter cloak open so he could reach for his pistol. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name. The Pistoleer is a series of historical adventure novels set in Britain in the 1640's.

On the 28th they lost Gainsborough and thus all Lincolnshire was in jeopardy. London’s propaganda sheets were scrambling to find any good news in these losses, and so they made heroes out of two unknown militia officers for standing fast when vastly outnumbered by royalist cavalry. Captain Robert Blake in Bristol and Colonel Oliver Cromwell in Gainsborough. The military reputations of both men were made – and then so was history. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name.

The Pistoleer - Lyme 1644 by Skye Smith Pdf

Cover Flap By late 1643 the English Parliament had suffered so many battlefield disasters that they were forced into a Confederacy with the Scottish Parliament. This was bad news for Charles because the Scots had defeated him just four years ago, so he looked to Ireland and France for help. In order to land French troop ships he needed to control the southern coast, so he sent an army under Prince Maurice to make that so. Maurice thought the taking of the port of Lyme would be a job done before breakfast. Meanwhile, down in the town Robert Blake was waiting for him, as he had waited for Maurice’s brother Rupert, in Bristol’s northern forts. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name.

The Pistoleer by James Carlos Blake Pdf

The award-winning author’s “fearless” debut novel chronicles the life of a legendary Texas outlaw with “a ruthless sensibility . . . spare and tough” (Publishers Weekly). Some called him a Texas hero. Some called him the Devil himself. But on one point they all agreed. While he was alive, John Wesley Hardin was the deadliest man in Texas. A killer at fifteen, in the next few years he became skilled enough with his pistols to back down Wild Bill Hickok in the street. The law finally caught up with him when he was twenty-five. By then, he had killed as many as forty men and been shot so many times that, it was said, he carried a pound of lead in his flesh. In jail he became a scholar, studying law books until he won himself freedom, and afterwards he tried to lead an upright life. It was not to be. By the time he was killed in 1895, Hardin was an anachronism—the last true gunfighter of the Old West. With each chapter told from a different character’s perspective, The Pistoleer is “a genuine tour-de-force” of Western historical fiction from the Los Angeles Times Book Prize–winning author of In the Rogue Blood (Rocky Mountain News). “Astonishing.” —Kirkus Reviews “Detailed and cinematic.” —Publishers Weekly “An achievement by any standards, but as a first novel is simply astounding.” —Roundup Magazine

THE HOODSMAN - Companion by Skye Smith Pdf

Cover Flap The Hoodsman series of twelve historical action novels simultaneously follow two distinct timelines. The longer (flashback) timeline begins shortly before the invasions of England in 1066, and progresses through the subsequent reign of terror of William the Conqueror. The shorter (current) timeline begins in 1100 with the assassination of William II, and progresses through the rise to power of the conqueror’s youngest son Henry I. Although the Robin Hood style adventures can be enjoyed simply as action packed entertainment, at a deeper level they also offer a portrait of the characters, society, and events during a difficult era that was pivotal to the people and history of the British Isles. This ‘thirteenth’ book is a reference handbook that will help the fans of the Hoodsman novels to more thoroughly understand and enjoy them.

Swami – The God Man by Ravinder Singh Pdf

It is a sci-fi political thriller. This story takes you on a voyage through political and religious power tunnels filled with dark, treacherous and secretive brutality apparently beautified under the cover of ‘diplomacy’ and ‘religion’, truth of which usually is disparate to a layman’s experience. Narayan, a man donning religious attire, is highly educated genius whose curious instincts force him to mathematically conjecture a theoretical path to predict future of humans. In quest of the data, he comes to know that some of the big anti social, religious & terrorist organizations are being nourished for political gains. Political hunger knows no legality or social welfare. Fool and rule policy is forcing the society on a path to push it into an ocean of hatred, animosity, and destruction. On putting the data in his highly complex mathematical equations he finds extinction of humans imminent under the situation prevalent. His equations show that the chances of the tragedy could be reduced significantly by unification of all the countries and forming a world government. The ambitious man derives complex equations, solutions of those open a path of rapid success for his political party. He becomes ruler of India. Hashim was Narayan’s classmate. The shrewd skills fostered by innate ruling instincts harmonize with lust in Hashim in concocting criminal ways to overpower the world. He chooses the path of terrorism under garb of a religious preacher. Hate, suspicion, misinformation, bafflement, unjust, religious animosity and skepticism, all cultured over the years in the society by the power hunters, drag humans on the path of collision. Thesis and anti-thesis duel between Swami and Hashim drag the whole world into a horrible world war. Swami uses simple ideas but ‘tough to execute’ in manufacturing highly potent all new weapons. Much terror is created worldwide. People rush to protect themselves but are killed. Immaculate lethal powers of these weapons created by Narayan push the whole world on the edge of extinction. Proceed on this awful journey. Ravinder Singh spent his early childhood in Delhi. His father was a mathematics teacher there.
