Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Beyond the Samovar' is a gripping, engaging story of escape, love and loss.In 1919, a young English couple, Livvy and Peter, leave Baku, which the previous year had become the capital of an independent Azerbaijan. While Livvy is reluctant to leave her home, Peter sees no future for Britons in the new country and treats their escape as an adventure. With their baby, they bluff and bribe their way across Bolshevik and White Russian territory to Archangel on the north coast of Russia, hoping to board a British ship. Only two of them ever manage to reach home.About the Author:Born in Worcestershire, Janet Hancock has lived in Dorset since 1991. For many years she taught English in the south of England to Arab and African officers. The germ of Beyond the Samovar was a newspaper reference to an unnamed Englishwoman caught up in the 1917 revolution in Baku, which at that time was in Russia. Janet enjoys choral singing and cultivating her courtyard garden.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 100 traditional yet surprisingly modern recipes from the far northern corners of Russia, featuring ingredients and dishes that young Russians are rediscovering as part of their heritage. IACP AWARD FINALIST • LONGLISTED FOR THE ART OF EATING PRIZE • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND FORBES “A necessary resource for food writers and for eaters, a fascinating read and good excuse to make fermented oatmeal.”—Bon Appétit Russian cookbooks tend to focus on the food that was imported from France in the nineteenth century or the impoverished food of the Soviet era. Beyond the North Wind explores the true heart of Russian food, a cuisine that celebrates whole grains, preserved and fermented foods, and straightforward but robust flavors. Recipes for a dazzling array of pickles and preserves, infused vodkas, homemade dairy products such as farmers cheese and cultured butter, puff pastry hand pies stuffed with mushrooms and fish, and seasonal vegetable soups showcase Russian foods that are organic and honest--many of them old dishes that feel new again in their elegant minimalism. Despite the country's harsh climate, this surprisingly sophisticated cuisine has an incredible depth of flavor to offer in dishes like Braised Cod with Horseradish, Roast Lamb with Kasha, Black Currant Cheesecake, and so many more. This home-style cookbook with a strong sense of place and evocative storytelling brings to life a rarely seen portrait of Russia, its people, and its palate—with 100 recipes, gorgeous photography, and essays on the little-known culinary history of this fascinating and wild part of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These poetic pieces are based on the human spirit, which is the realisation that underneath the obvious, there is something deeper going on, a connection that is felt yet is easily overlooked. The human spirit can be explored and discussed in a general way, but most importantly, it is a profound aspect of ourselves that should be celebrated, because despite our differences, we know that in spirit, we are all one. Each nation, each culture, has something unique to give to the world, and world civilization is the richer for it. Humanity should really be defined by the word ‘celebration’ as differentiation is enriching us, and offers a greater understanding of who we are as a species on this planet.

Book excerpt: In the third book of the epic science-fiction saga, The Genesis Project, the newly-formed alliance between three peaceful worlds is to come to blows with a seemingly unstoppable adversary... It began with a single message that said: "I am Toarvak 6, destroyer of worlds, servant of the Kresh. You are not Kresh. Toarvak 7 has been informed. I am the Will and the Way." The alliance of humans and the Gnathe, a highly-evolved alien species, was besieged by Toarvak 6, a seemingly indestructible spaceship until it was mysteriously and utterly destroyed. Left to piece together their ruined worlds, the alliance begin to uncover what it was that saved them from complete obliteration. But as they attempt to prepare themselves against renewed onslaught by the Kresh with the arrival of Toarvak 7, a new threat comes in the form of a world-infecting parasitic organism called The Goss. Attacked from all sides, it appears that the alliance will inevitably crumble beneath the weight of insurmountable foes... unless something can save them from annihilation.

Book excerpt: Enlightenment is the last host. Beyond it, all boundaries disappear, all experiences disappear. Experience comes to its utmost in enlightenment; it is the very peak of all that is beautiful, of all that is immortal, of all that is blissful -- but it is an experience. Beyond enlightenment there is no experience at all, because the experiencer has disappeared. Enlightenment is not only the peak of experience, it is also the finest definition of your being. Beyond it, there is only nothingness; you will not come again to a point which has to be transcended. Experience, the experiencer, enlightenment -- all have been left behind. You are part of the tremendous nothingness that is infinite. This is the nothingness out of which the whole existence comes, the womb; and this is the nothingness in which all the existence disappears.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traveling across the former Soviet Union is a challenge at the best of times—doing so in a dilapidated VW is just that much more of an adventure A chance job offer at a timber yard in Estonia gives Thom and his old pal Jo a taste for the unknown. So when Uncle Tony asks them to drive to Vladivostok for another job, they can’t think of a good reason why not. The result is a classic caper across the former Soviet Union in Max, a rusty old VW camper. Knowing little of the language or the geography ahead, they embark on probably the longest commute ever, encountering corrupt officials, film star mechanics, and over-friendly gangsters. Far off the tourist trail, they bear witness to the collapse of one nation and the birth of a new one during the free-for-all that was Russia in the 1990s.

Book excerpt: The Traders, an alien race, have come to Earth. With them came the collapse of Earth’s world economy. The Traders find little of value here, except manpower. They pass on some technology in exchange for slavery. Those who choose slavery work at tasks the Traders cannot, or will not, perform. One of those tasks is the harvesting of the venom of the red viper of the planet Elsinore. The venom’s purpose is a mystery that divides the Traders themselves. There are those who have learned to extract money and technology from the Traders by playing from two sides. The Traders hire mercenaries to control their slaves, but the supplier of the armed men also sends others to fight the Traders, causing the Traders to hire yet more mercenaries. Aaron Kane, a mercenary officer, crashes on Elsinore, Kane, under the employ of another Trader faction, is rescued by Molly Daniels and organizes a resistance to the Elsinore Traders. Ilya Aleksandrov, an officer of the same band of mercenaries, arrives to oppose Kane – thus maximizing the fees the Traders on both sides of the conflict pay to the mercenary group. Kane, though, has an agenda. He blames the Traders for the deaths of his wife and child. Despite opportunities to end the conflict Kane fights on, driven by his hate. Father Domingo Ramirez, a missionary to the Traders, gains access to the dark, hot, caverns in which the Traders dwell, and finds, to his peril, the answer to the reason for the Venom. The fates of Kane, Daniels, and Aleksandrov hang on the spiral of madness caused by the venom.

Book excerpt: In the spring of 1920 three ships steamed into the port of Famagusta in the British colony of Cyprus with sick and wounded officers and men of the White Russian Army together with their families and other civilians fleeing the victorious Bolsheviks at the end of the Civil War which had raged through the country after the 1917 Russian Revolution. Britain had offered transport and temporary sanctuary in its nearest territory. 1,546 desperate men, women and children from two of the ships were housed in a WWI Turkish prisoner-of-war camp to wait for other countries to offer asylum, the other ship sailed on to Egypt and another camp. In Cyprus some died, some moved on, but a group of about 70 saw opportunities for a new life on the island. They formed the nucleus of a Russian community which attracted other emigrés over the decades but whose story is largely unknown or forgotten, even on the island. One of them was the grandfather of the author who has tracked down official documents, historical sources and interwoven them with her own notes and diaries to tell her personal and human account of a Russian family in Cyprus through three generations and 50 years of dramatic events.
