Book excerpt: A dark and intricate fantasy, City of the Uncommon Thief is the story of a quarantined city gripped by fear and of the war that can free it. "Guilders work. Foundlings scrub the bogs. Needles bind. Swords tear. And men leave. There is nothing uncommon in this city. I hope Errol Thebes is dead. We both know he is safer that way." In a walled city of a mile-high iron guild towers, many things are common knowledge: No book in any of the city's libraries reveals its place on a calendar or a map. No living beasts can be found within the city's walls. And no good comes to the guilder or foundling who trespasses too far from their labors. Even on the tower rooftops, where Errol Thebes and the rest of the city's teenagers pass a few short years under an open sky, no one truly believes anything uncommon is possible within the city walls. But one guildmaster has broken tradition to protect her child, and now the whole city faces an uncommon threat: a pair of black iron spikes that has the power of both sword and needle on the rib cages of men has gone missing, but the mayhem they cause rises everywhere. If the spikes are not found, no wall will be high enough to protect the city—or the world beyond it. And Errol Thebes? He's not dead and he's certainly not safe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A college student is framed for a huge bank robbery and ends up on trial for murder when a bank official is found dead in the vault. UCLA student Fred Fuller is pleased with his new part time job as a messenger for Bank USA. The job pays well, the hours are perfect, and many of the bank tellers he works with are young and pretty. When one of the tellers takes a special interest in Fred he struggles to remain faithful to his college girlfriend, Maria. But this temptation is nothing compared to the dilemma he faces when he discovers a bag full of the bank's money in his company vehicle and realizes he?s been set up to take the fall for a six million dollar bank heist. Fred has political ambitions and has worked as a congressional intern in the past. When he is charged with the murder of the bank?s cashier he uses his political connections to obtain legal counsel. His attorney is top notch, an ex-DA who's gone into private practice, but he's expensive and Fred must rely on Maria's fund raising efforts to fund his defense. The case against Fred looks pretty hopeless when Fred's fingerprints are found inside the vault and a witness claims he heard Fred planning to flee the country. Fred's only hope is if his two best friends, Steve and Randy, can track down the real killer and get him to confess to the crime. Unfortunately, nobody knows where Sam Stewart has disappeared and the FBI has given up trying to find him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in a world of goblin wars, stag-sized battle ravens, and assassins who kill with deadly tattoos, Christopher Buehlman's The Blacktongue Thief begins a 'dazzling' (Robin Hobb) fantasy adventure unlike any other. Kinch Na Shannack owes the Takers Guild a small fortune for his education as a thief, which includes (but is not limited to) lock-picking, knife-fighting, wall-scaling, fall-breaking, lie-weaving, trap-making, plus a few small magics. His debt has driven him to lie in wait by the old forest road, planning to rob the next traveler that crosses his path. But today, Kinch Na Shannack has picked the wrong mark. Galva is a knight, a survivor of the brutal goblin wars, and handmaiden of the goddess of death. She is searching for her queen, missing since a distant northern city fell to giants. Unsuccessful in his robbery and lucky to escape with his life, Kinch now finds his fate entangled with Galva's. Common enemies and uncommon dangers force thief and knight on an epic journey where goblins hunger for human flesh, krakens hunt in dark waters, and honor is a luxury few can afford. “The Blacktongue Thief is fast and fun and filled with crazy magic. I can't wait to see what Christopher Buehlman does next." - Brent Weeks, New York Times bestselling author of the Lightbringer series At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book excerpt: Two brothers—a warrior and a thief—are drawn into a deadly plot at the dawn of the Ottoman empire: “Fast-paced and filled with action and adventure.” —Historical Novel Society Istanbul, 1481: The once great city of Constantine, a strange mix of Christians, Turks, and Jews, now forms the heart of the Ottoman empire. The conquest, still a recent memory, means emotions run high; danger is never far away. Skiouros and Lykaion, sons of a Greek farmer, are conscripted into the infamous Janissary guards and taken to Istanbul. As Skiouros escapes into the Greek quarter and supports himself through petty thievery, Lykaion remains with the slave chain, becomes an Islamic convert, and guards the Imperial palace. But one fateful day Skiouros picks the wrong pocket and begins to unravel a plot reaching to the highest peaks of Imperial power. He and his brother are left with the most difficult decision faced by a conquered Greek: Is the rule of the Ottoman Sultan worth saving?

Book excerpt: Joel Chandler Harris was an American journalist, fiction writer, and folklorist best known for his collection of Uncle Remus stories. Harris wrote novels, narrative histories, translations of French folklore, children's literature, and collections of stories depicting rural life in Georgia. As fiction writer and folklorist, he wrote many 'Brer Rabbit' stories from the African-American oral tradition. He realized the literary value of the stories he had heard from the slaves of Turnwold Plantation. Harris set out to record the stories and insisted that they be verified by two independent sources before he would publish them. The stories, mostly collected directly from the African-American oral storytelling tradition, were revolutionary in their use of dialect, animal personages, and serialized landscapes. 1.

This book was released on 2021-03-29 with total page 4380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American author and creator of the folk character Uncle Remus, Joel Chandler Harris produced a wide body of works, reflecting his life and interests in the Deep South. As a young journalist, he established a reputation as a brilliant humorist and writer of dialect. His Uncle Remus stories secured for Harris a place in American literature. The format was an instant success — a wise and genial old black man, Uncle Remus narrates tales of Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox and other animals to the son of a plantation owner, while interweaving his philosophy of the world about him. Harris’ later novels reveal his ability as a writer of ‘local color’, exploring important issues facing the South after its Reconstruction. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Harris’ complete works, with numerous illustrations, many rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

THIMBLEFINGER AND HIS QUEER COUNTRY was written by Joel Chandler Harris, author of the Uncle Remus and Brer Rabbit stories. This book contains 19 adventures. It also has 34 pen and ink drawings by Oliver Herford which give the stories added life. NOTE: Here the word “queer” in fact means STRANGE and has been used in its original, literal form and does not have the implication of any modern connotation. Here we have the first full adventure by Mr Thimblefinger as he leads his friends – Mr. Rabbit, tortoise, Mr Lion, Sweet Susan, Brother Bear and others, through his strange land. A second book of adventures by Mr Thimblefinger and friends titled “Mr Rabbit at Home” followed (copy ISBN 9788834171943 into your browser to search for this book). And strange they are. Herein we have stories like: Mr. Thimblefinger’s Queer Country Mr. Thimblefinger’s Friends The Talking-Saddle and the Thief The Ladder of Lions The Looking-Glass Children Mr. Rabbit as a Rain-Maker How Brother Bear’s Hair was combed The Strawberry-Girl The Witch of the Well, and many more. The stories themselves belong to three categories. Some of them were gathered from the negroes of the South, but were not embodied in the tales of Uncle Remus, because the author was not sure they were indeed negro stories; some are folklore stories from Middle Georgia, and no doubt belong to England; and some are merely inventions. They were all written in the midst of daily work while the author was working on a morning newspaper. ============== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Mr Thimblefinger, strange country, strange land, Folklore, fairy tales, myths, legends, childrens stories, bedtime stories, fables, parents with children, classic childrens stories, classic fairy tales, parents to be, fathers with children, mothers with children, babies, childrens books, Magical, delightful, enthralling, Thimblefinger, Rabbit, Brother, Sweetest Susan, Meadows, Lion, Drusilla, John, Buster, children, Valentine, Mayor, Tip-Top, talking saddle, Crow, River, thief, Bear, Chickamy Crany, Mr Lion, laughter, Dolls, Terrapin, tortoise,, honor, honour, morals, beautiful, Granny, Strawberry Girl, peaches and cream, looking-glass, queer, woods, Stag, Billy-Goat, traveller, traveller, Buzzard, Conjurer, gwine, companion, Keen-Point, Grim-Eye, cave, Tickle-My-Toes, witch, Butch, strange looking, Cob Handle, Geraldine, fiddle, violin,, comb, Cat, strawberries, astonished, pomegranate tree, blood-cousins, fiddle string, pumpkins, coachman
