Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hilary Stone, thirteen years old, isn’t interested in the “dailies” like cleaning her room and setting the dinner table. Her parents, both busy, high-powered New York attorneys, live and work on the Upper East Side of New York City. Hilary and her mother do not agree. Hilary loves to read, is fascinated by prehistory and her mother wishes she were more interested in clothes, make-up and boys like other tween girls. Hilary pays a number of visits to the Museum of Natural History to pursue her interest in prehistory. While there, staring at the skulls of Australopithecus, Peking Sinanthropus, Neanderthal and Cro- Magnon men, she is suddenly transported back in time to these ancient civilizations. During these astral projections, she experiences what life was really like for these prehistoric peoples. Each time she is drawn into fl ames in the eye sockets of the skulls on display at the museum. Among Australopithecines, two million years ago, she escapes a fi re; with Peking Sinanthropus, 500,000 years ago, she witnesses a murder; among the Neanderthals, 100,000 years ago, she falls into an animal trap and with the Cro-Magnons, 30,000 years ago, she watches a cave painting lesson. Each time Hilary astral projects, she returns to present time. During this time, Hilary meets Dr. Amaan, an archaeologist at the museum and they become friends. She explains to Hilary that she has probably astral projected into different prehistoric periods. Hilary’s best friend Karin Wong’s brother, Phillip, is interning at the museum with Dr. Amaan. Hilary and Phillip Wong share their interest in paleontology and archaeology. Together they visit his French teacher, who knew Father Pierre Teilhard de Chardin when he lived and worked in New York City in the 1950s. Together, they also visit Dr. Amaan at the Anthropology Foundation. Hilary’s parents become concerned about her and she arranges a meeting at the museum with Dr. Amaan. Her parents bring Dr. Gottsieg, Hilary’s counselor, along to help them evaluate her astral projections.

Gideon has heard of the rainbird that lives high up at the top of a mountain in Kenya in East Africa and, if seen, could bring his tribe rain. Gideon climbs to the top of the mountain against his parents’ wishes to try to save his tribe and the animals. After he climbs the mountain trying to find the rainbird, he comes down the mountain, not sure if he has seen it. His feet are torn and bleeding from the climb, and waiting for him at the bottom of the mountain is his little brother, Peter, who helps him get home to their hut safely.

Book excerpt: England in the 1520s is a heartbeat from disaster. If the king dies without a male heir, the country could be destroyed by civil war. Henry VIII wants to annul his marriage of twenty years and marry Anne Boleyn. The pope and most of Europe oppose him. The quest for the king’s freedom destroys his advisor, the brilliant Cardinal Wolsey, and leaves a power vacuum and a deadlock. Into this impasse steps Thomas Cromwell. The son of a brutal blacksmith, a political genius, a briber, a bully and a charmer, Cromwell has broken all the rules of a rigid society in his rise to power. Narrowly escaping personal disaster—the loss of his young family and of Wolsey, his beloved patron—he picks his way deftly through a court where “man is wolf to man.” Pitting himself against parliament, the political establishment and the papacy, he is prepared to reshape England to his own and Henry’s desires. In inimitable style, Hilary Mantel presents a picture of a half-made society on the cusp of change, where individuals fight or embrace their fate with passion and courage. Wolf Hall re-creates an era when the personal and political are separated by a hair’s breadth, where success brings unlimited power, but a single failure means death.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Explosive... A blistering tell-all."---Washington Post "People should sit up, take notes and change things."---Ace Smith, Los Angeles Times "Brazile most certainly has a story to tell.... Vivid."---The Guardian From Donna Brazile, former DNC chair and legendary political operative, an explosive and revealing new look at the 2016 election: the first insider account of the Russian hacking of the DNC and the missteps by the Clinton campaign and Obama administration that enabled a Trump victory. In the fallout of the Russian hacking of the Democratic National Committee--and as chaos threatened to consume the party's convention--Democrats turned to a familiar figure to right the ship: Donna Brazile. Known to millions from her frequent TV appearances, she was no stranger to high stakes and dirty opponents, and the longtime Democratic strategist had a reputation in Washington as a one-stop shop for fixing sticky problems. What Brazile found at the DNC was unlike anything she had experienced before--and much worse than is commonly known. The party was beset by infighting, scandal, and hubris, while reeling from a brazen and wholly unprecedented attempt by a foreign power to influence the presidential election. Plus, its candidate, Hillary Clinton, faced an opponent who broke every rule in the political playbook. Packed with never-before-reported revelations about what went down in 2016, Hacks is equal parts campaign thriller, memoir, and roadmap for the future. With Democrats now in the wilderness after this historic defeat, Hacks argues that staying silent about what went wrong helps no one. Only by laying bare the missteps, miscalculations, and crimes of 2016, Brazile contends, will Americans be able to salvage their democracy.

Book excerpt: Marianna Strauss has always had a small scar on the side of her head, hidden under her long brown hair. She never knew what caused it or when it came to be there, but on the morning of her twenty third birthday that scar begins to pulse with acute pain. Then after the pain, comes the voices. As granddaughter of the architect of the new world, Marianna possesses a secret which two of the most powerful rulers in the kingdom are searching for, hunting her like prey. One of them is a man, the other is a beast. She fears them both, but one of them she must learn to trust. If she does not, the secret she holds, will destroy her. But which of them will she choose, and how will she decide? In a time when a new breed of beast has risen from the flooded earth only one woman can stop them. Entrusted with a task so important it could save humanity, who will she trust to help her? And will she succeed?
