Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A perfect English rendering of Salgado Maranhão’s deft expression of the tonality of this people and land.” —Gregory Rabassa, acclaimed American translator In poems brilliantly textured and layered, Salgado Maranhão integrates socio-political thought with subjects abstractly metaphysical. Concrete collides with conceptual—butcher shops, sex, and machine guns in conversation with language, absence, and time—resulting in a collection varied as well as unified, an aesthetic at once traditional and postmodern. Writing in forms both fixed and free, Maranhão’s language suggests a jazz-like musicality that rings true in Alexis Levitin’s masterful translations. For readers who enjoy the complexity of Charles Simic, or the stylistically innovative syntax of César Vallejo, Maranhão’s Blood of the Sun is a sensually provocative amalgamation of both. “Alexis Levitin’s translation of the Afro-Brazilian poet Salgado Maranhão’s Blood of the Sun succeeds in negotiating the quirky experimental richness of Maranhão’s Pre-Columbian, Amazonian, and Yoruba influences with his traditional rhymed lyrics and jazz-like syncopations . . . Levitin skillfully alerts us to the presence of a complex and offbeat poet whose work merits a wide audience.” —Colette Inez, author of The Secret of M. Dulong “What we see are classic themes of chivalry, reflections on the rural, a playful, imaginative use of language, a mix of romance and realism, and—oh yes—love, lyric narratives of calm resignation.” —Harvest Time “Salgado Maranhão deliberately stretches the meanings of words up to their very limits to see if he can get more meaning out of words than they normally have.” —Plattsburgh Press-Republican

SAHARA ADVENTURE SERIES - BLOOD IN FRONT OF THE SUN “Blood in Front of the Sun” is part of the exciting “Sahara Adventure series” chronicling the adventures of Teuns Stegmann and his French Foreign Legion comrades in the treacherous Sahara desert. Set against the blistering sands of the Sahara desert, this book is the eighth installment in the action-packed series. This gripping tale follows the courageous Teuns Stegmann and his loyal band of Legionnaires as they find themselves embroiled in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with the villainous Abdul Hoessein. Caught by the soldiers of the French Foreign Legion, Brigitte Bonnet, the influential leader of the proud Dulac people, must face execution at the French Fort, Dini Salam, in the Sahara Desert. This is the decision of the French Supreme Authority due to her involvement in the deaths of several Legion soldiers. The bitter task of attending the execution falls upon Teuns Stegmann, the blonde South African who played a significant role in her capture. When the influential Dulac leader Brigitte Bonnet stages a daring escape from her French captors, it sets off a chain of explosive events that will test the mettle of Teuns and his friends. Bonnet swiftly enlists Hoessein to enact a devious plot for revenge against the Legionnaires who aided in her capture. Teuns and his comrades soon find themselves at the mercy of the vengeful Bonnet and the treacherous Hoessein after being abducted in a surprise ambush. Brutally tortured by the sadistic Hoessein, Teuns, and his friends endure unimaginable hardship as they are dragged across the scorching sands toward Bonnet’s desert stronghold. Refusing to break under the torment, the loyal Legionnaires hatch a bold plan to turn the tables on their captors and escape. But with Bonnet’s forces closing in, time is running out for the embattled group. Dodging bloodthirsty Tuareg raiders and battling dehydration and exhaustion, Teuns struggles valiantly to keep his men alive and evade the clutches of the infamous Dulac leader. Outgunned and outnumbered, the Legionnaires must rely on their wits and brotherhood to survive the perilous Saharan wastelands. As Teuns and his band of Legionnaires are pushed to their physical and mental limits, the desert becomes an unforgiving arena that will force them to sacrifice everything for the sake of loyalty and honor. Equipped with only their courage and Teuns’ indomitable will, the men steadily make their way across the desert toward a final showdown. “Blood in Front of the Sun” is a breathless tale of strength, sacrifice, and valor showcasing author Meiring Fouche’s talent for adventure writing. With vivid descriptions of the harsh desert terrain, surprising plot twists, courage in the face of mortal danger, and heart-pounding action, Fouche crafts a white-knuckle thrill ride that will leave readers gasping until the final page. Can Teuns lead his men to victory against impossible odds? Will the Legionnaires triumph against the evil forces allied against them? Find out in “Blood in Front of the Sun”, the next exhilarating chapter in the Sahara Adventure series. Overflowing with danger and drama, this is classic adventure storytelling at its absolute best. If you enjoy classic adventure stories full of action and drama, don’t miss “Blood in Front of the Sun”!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the killings by the "Nameless Ones" cease, a rebellion in eastern Kardakan is put down brutally. Rakvir Stagarnik is sent on a mission to preserve peace, but the Thlaxacan ruler who resisted war is murdered and his successor leads his people against all the "Otherworlders". Rakvir breaks their northern army and, by walking through fire, persuades the Thlaxacan temple-priests that the solar eclipse did not mean "Angry Thlac". He demands that the priests dissuade their followers in Kardakan from further violence. Unfortunately in a final battle, death awaits one who least deserves it. Peace returns to an exhausted world and Rakvir and his family pick up the threads of their lives. The sixth and final volume in the epic "Through Fire" "Thlaxaca: Blood of the Blood Sun", is set in a distant planet, not too dissimilar from our own. Richard Hernaman Allen, a former Commissioner of HM Customs & Excise, wrote "Through Fire" over a period of thirty years.

Book excerpt: The second novel in Nuruddin Farah's Blood in the Sun trilogy, Gifts is the beguiling tale of a Somali family and the struggles of its powerful matriarch to keep it whole. Duniya is a single mother, raising twins while working as a nurse in a Mogadiscio hospital. Her self-sufficient world is rocked when her rebellious daughter brings home a mysterious foundling infant. And when Duniya accepts a ride to work from a wealthy, romantically interested family friend, her whole life is turned upside down. Meanwhile, the hospital where she works is besieged by a desperate population ravaged by war, drought, disease, and famine. Western relief agencies have invaded Somalia with their charity, and some Somalis chafe at tainted goods and the burden of debts they can never hope to repay. With lyrical, luxuriant prose, Farah weaves a spellbinding tapestry of reportage, dreams, memory, folktales, and family lore. In his hands, Duniya's tale becomes emblematic of the struggles of an entire people.

Blood of Mystery A twist of time has left Runebreaker Travis Wilder and three of his otherworldly friends stranded on 1880s Earth in a lawless Colorado mining town. As they search for a way back to their own time, Grace Beckett–in present-day Eldh–journeys to a frozen kingdom where she learns her own terrifying destiny: to oppose the Pale King and his monstrous army in the coming cataclysmic battle that will decide Eldh’s future forever. If the Pale King emerges victorious, his master Mohg, the dread Lord of Nightfall, will return from exile, break the First Rune, and remake Eldh in his own dark image. And Earth itself, Eldh’s sister world, will be the next to fall under shadow. Even if Travis returns to Eldh in time to align his calling as Runebreaker with Grace’s destiny as Blademender, how can two mere humans hope to defeat an evil more ancient than any world, more powerful than all existence?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Truth about the Philippine Rape by a member of General MacArthur’s U.S. Counter-Intelligence Staff—Adalia Marquez BLOOD ON THE RISING SUN is a true story of life in Manila under Japanese occupation and, later, during the American liberation. There have been many tales told about guerrilla activities and underground operations in the Philippines but in almost all of them the chief protagonists are Americans. BLOOD ON THE RISING SUN is the story of the fights against the Japanese waged by a Filipino woman, her husband, and their friends and presents an aspect of the Philippine resistance that has never yet been told. Adalia’s account of life in the prison hellhole of Fort Santiago describes the terrible privations and tortures the inmates were forced to undergo. Later on Adalia worked for the American Counter-Intelligence Corps and helped pin authenticated collaboration charges on many Manilans who had sold out to the enemy. While carrying on this task she received numerous threats against her life and the lives of her children. On the Philippines was staged the Bataan Death March, as well as the crucial landings on the Island of Leyte. Many who will read the story of those two unforgettable episodes of the War of the Pacific will feel deeply grateful to Adalia, her husband Tony, and the hundreds of other brave Filipinos who sacrificed all for freedom. BLOOD ON THE RISING SUN is not a book of light fiction. The truth asserts itself and here in this book Adalia Marquez writers with eloquence and simplicity, which go direct to the human heart.
