Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Maltese Islands are positively mythic with Megaliths, medieval dungeons and Calypso's Cave . The narrow streets of their towns and villages are crowded with Renaissance cathedrals and Baroque palaces. As the countryside is dotted with the oldest known human structures in the world, the Islands have rightly been described as an open-air museum.The Maltese archipelago is situated at the centre of the Mediterranean, with Malta 93 km south of Sicily and 288 km north of Africa. The archipelago consists of three islands: Malta, Gozo and Comino. The total population is 400,000 inhabitants over an area of 316 sq km and a coastline of 196.8km. The largest island and also cultural, commercial and administrative centre is Malta. The second largest island and more rural is Gozo, Comino is largely uninhabited. Although small, Malta has a long and rich history. Man first arrived in Malta around 5200 BC. These first Neolithic people probably arrived from Sicily and were mainly farming and fishing communities, with some evidence of hunting activities. They apparently lived in caves and open dwellings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valletta, the capital city of Malta, is a place of historical significance, cultural richness, and architectural splendor. Situated on the northeastern coast of the island, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a testament to Malta's rich heritage and strategic importance throughout the centuries. Before delving into the depths of what makes Valletta a unique destination, let's explore the preface of its captivating story. The origins of Valletta trace back to the 16th century when the Knights of St. John, also known as the Knights Hospitaller, ruled the Maltese islands. Following the heroic defense of Malta against the Ottoman Empire in 1565, the Grand Master of the Knights, Jean de Valette, envisioned a fortified city that would safeguard the island from future invasions. Thus, Valletta was born, named in honor of its visionary founder. One of the most striking features of Valletta is its Baroque architecture, characterized by intricate facades, ornate churches, and imposing fortifications. The city's skyline is dominated by landmarks such as St. John's Co-Cathedral, renowned for its stunning interior adorned with masterpieces by Caravaggio, and the Grandmaster's Palace, a symbol of the Knights' grandeur and power. Valletta's charm lies not only in its architectural grandeur but also in its vibrant cultural scene. The city boasts a myriad of museums, galleries, and theaters, offering visitors a glimpse into Malta's rich history and artistic heritage. From the National Museum of Archaeology, showcasing artifacts dating back to prehistoric times, to the Manoel Theatre, one of Europe's oldest working theaters, Valletta is a treasure trove of cultural experiences. Exploring Valletta is like embarking on a journey through time. The city's narrow streets, adorned with balconies and hidden courtyards, whisper tales of centuries past. As you wander through its labyrinthine alleys, you'll stumble upon hidden gems, from quaint cafes serving traditional pastizzi to bustling markets brimming with local crafts. In recent years, Valletta has undergone a renaissance, revitalizing its historic core while embracing modernity. The city was designated as the European Capital of Culture in 2018, sparking a wave of cultural events and urban regeneration projects. Today, Valletta stands as a vibrant hub of art, history, and innovation, inviting visitors from around the world to discover its timeless beauty. In the pages that follow, we will delve deeper into the heart of Valletta, unraveling its rich tapestry of history, culture, and charm. Join us on this journey as we uncover the wonders of Malta's beloved capital city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NSA, the British government, and a group of darknet hackers are after one of the most dangerous lists ever created—a list that, if it falls into the wrong hands, will be used against them all. When the British prime minister's private accounts are hacked, museum curator-turned-cyber-defense agent Calla Cress is called on to decrypt a mysterious cipher left in the prime minister's home. Soon a series of encrypted ciphers surfaces on a darknet site, the Vault, whose inception is steeped in the mysterious history of the Maltese Knights. As Calla gets closer to not only unearthing the Vault's interlaced web of secrets but also discovering the identities of the darknet masters, she learns that technologies aren’t the only thing they intend to auction. The Decrypter: Digital Eyes Only is Book 3 in the Calla Cress Technothriller series but can be read as a stand-alone story. What readers are saying about The Decrypter series and Calla Cress: ★★★★★ “Full of twists and excitement to the last page.” ★★★★★ “Gripping read!” ★★★★★ “Absolutely brilliant storyline.” ★★★★★ “Engaging and well-plotted with a pace that keeps you reading long into the night.
