Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A marine home on leave from WWII “does a first-class job of detecting” in this tale of puzzling murders and misleading clues (The New York Times). An injured Pat Abbott is back in New Mexico with his wife, Jean, while he recovers from his war wounds, but he’s still fighting—to find a killer, or possibly more than one. After one of the couple’s friends, Ray, was found dead at the bottom of a canyon, rumors started swirling. He’d recently shocked the town by bringing a wife home from Hollywood—when he was meant to marry local girl Karen. To complicate matters, Karen’s distinctive amethyst-colored glasses were found in Ray’s abandoned Cadillac convertible. It could have been suicide, but there’s reason to suspect both the not-so-grieving widow and poor, spurned Karen. But soon the widow asks Pat’s help and he and Jean are drawn into a whirlwind of intrigues, jealousies, and motives in this clever whodunit from the Golden Age of Mystery . . . Praise for the Pat and Jean Abbott Mysteries “Amusing and sophisticated.” —The Star (London) “[A] well-plotted and mystifying case.” —Saturday Review “One of the more interesting married teams of detectives.” —Thrilling Detective

Book excerpt: Adventure is just down the Yellow Brick Road… The award-winning author and illustrator of Neverland returns with another beautiful RPG setting book, in OZ: A Fantasy Role-Playing Game. While many have traveled with Dorothy Gale to the world of OZ, there is so much more to explore! But know this: there is more to the land and its inhabitants than the rumors might suggest. Appearances can be deceiving and like any good metal smith will tell you, the only way to tell a gold bar from a yellow brick is to hit it with a hammer. So begins Andrew Kolb’s OZ: A Fantasy Role-Playing Game. While 5th Edition compatible like its predecessor, Neverland, OZ uses an urban setting pointcrawl instead of a hexcrawl, full of secrets to discover via underground trains and a monorail that loops around all four districts of OZ. With different neighborhoods to explore, factions to join, and questions to ask (what happened to The Slippers, anyway?) players can escape to the Emerald City for hours on end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This New York Times bestselling account of books parachuted to soldiers during WWII is a “cultural history that does much to explain modern America” (USA Today). When America entered World War II in 1941, we faced an enemy that had banned and burned 100 million books. Outraged librarians launched a campaign to send free books to American troops, gathering 20 million hardcover donations. Two years later, the War Department and the publishing industry stepped in with an extraordinary program: 120 million specially printed paperbacks designed for troops to carry in their pockets and rucksacks in every theater of war. These small, lightweight Armed Services Editions were beloved by the troops and are still fondly remembered today. Soldiers read them while waiting to land at Normandy, in hellish trenches in the midst of battles in the Pacific, in field hospitals, and on long bombing flights. This pioneering project not only listed soldiers’ spirits, but also helped rescue The Great Gatsby from obscurity and made Betty Smith, author of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, into a national icon. “A thoroughly engaging, enlightening, and often uplifting account . . . I was enthralled and moved.” — Tim O’Brien, author of The Things They Carried “Whether or not you’re a book lover, you’ll be moved.” — Entertainment Weekly

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Go Southwest, Old Man,, a sort of personal remake of 'Go West, Young Man', the founding episteme of the American nineteenth century, conciliates these two souls (well, not to be pretentious, let's simply say two sides) that have actually always lived in harmony. This is a book generated by a quarter of a century spent wandering around the canyons and deserts of Arizona, Colorado, Utah and, above all New Mexico, with a view to penetrating the by now universal legend of the West, approaching the cultures (English, Hispanic and native American), and mastering the literature. The slant is composite: melding the scholarly with the informative and the travel journal, and the writing is composite too, because the book speaks English and Italian. It talks about cinema (lots of John Ford) and about detective stories, the most popular genre here, about visual arts and Latino folklore, about the legend of the West, the so-called 'Soul of the Southwest', and the kitsch style of Santa Fe. And it talks about (and with) some of the greatest writers that the Southwest has spawned: Rudolfo Anaya, Stanley Crawford, John Nichols and Hillerman. So what we have is a first-hand experience of the Southwest; where the ego is not entrenched within a precise disciplinary role but opens up - and exposes itself - to the thrilling risk of the discovery that can renew it.

Book excerpt: In wartime New Orleans, a crime-solving couple looks into an heiress’s death in a tale of “family skeletons, bittersweet romance, and [deft] sleuthing” (Saturday Review). Marine Lt. Pat Abbott is currently stateside, posted in New Orleans, where the French Quarter is packed with wartime crowds seeking a bit of entertainment. But when Jean finds a body at the home of the prominent old Creole family with whom the couple is staying, Pat must return to his civilian role of private investigator as the pair become entangled with an assortment of aristocrats and quirky characters . . . Praise for the Pat and Jean Abbott Mysteries “One of the more interesting married teams of detectives . . . A sort of globetrotting Nick and Nora.” —Thrilling Detective “Pleasant reading.” —The New York Times “[A] lively, well-plotted and mystifying case.” —Saturday Review
