When fifteen-year-old Julia Beaufort-Stuart wakes up in the hospital, she knows the lazy summer break she'd imagined won't be exactly what she anticipated. And once she returns to her grandfather's estate, a bit banged up but alive, she begins to realize that her injury might not have been an accident. One of her family's employees is missing, and he disappeared on the very same day she landed in the hospital. Desperate to figure out what happened, she befriends Euan McEwen, the Scottish Traveler boy who found her when she was injured, and his standoffish sister, Ellen. As Julie grows closer to this family, she witnesses firsthand some of the prejudices they've grown used to-a stark contrast to her own upbringing-and finds herself exploring thrilling new experiences that have nothing to do with a missing-person investigation.

Nielsen, the New York Times bestselling author of the Ascendance Trilogy. When Nic, a slave in the mines outside of Rome, is forced to enter a sealed cavern containing the lost treasures of Julius Caesar, he finds much more than gold and gemstones: He discovers an ancient bulla, an amulet that belonged to the great Caesar and is filled with a magic once reserved for the Gods -- magic some Romans would kill for. Now, with the deadly power of the bulla pulsing through his veins, Nic is determined to become free. But instead, he finds himself at the center of a ruthless conspiracy to overthrow the emperor and spark the Praetor War, a battle to destroy Rome from within. Traitors and spies lurk at every turn, each more desperate than the next to use Nic's newfound powers for their own dark purposes. In a quest to stop the rebellion, save Rome, and secure his own freedom, Nic must harness the magic within himself and defeat the empire's most powerful and savage leaders.

Download or read book The Mirror Thief written by Martin Seay and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A globetrotting, time-bending, wildly entertaining masterpiece hailed by the New York Times Book Review as "Audaciously well written...the book I was raving about to my friends before I'd even finished it." Publishers Weekly raved that "with near-universal appeal . . . Seay’s debut novel is a true delight, a big, beautiful cabinet of wonders that is by turns an ominous modern thriller, a supernatural mystery, and an enchanting historical adventure story." Set in three cities in three eras, The Mirror Thief calls to mind David Mitchell and Umberto Eco in its mix of entertainment and literary bravado. The core story is set in Venice in the sixteenth century, when the famed makers of Venetian glass were perfecting one of the old world's most wondrous inventions: the mirror. An object of glittering yet fearful fascination—was it reflecting simple reality, or something more spiritually revealing?—the Venetian mirrors were state of the art technology, and subject to industrial espionage by desirous sultans and royals world-wide. But for any of the development team to leave the island was a crime punishable by death. One man, however—a world-weary war hero with nothing to lose—has a scheme he thinks will allow him to outwit the city's terrifying enforcers of the edict, the ominous Council of Ten . . . Meanwhile, in two other Venices—Venice Beach, California, circa 1958, and the Venice casino in Las Vegas, circa today—two other schemers launch similarly dangerous plans to get away with a secret . . . All three stories will weave together into a spell-binding tour-de-force that is impossible to put down—an old-fashioned, stay-up-all-night novel that, in the end, returns the reader to a stunning conclusion in the original Venice . . . and the bedazzled sense of having read a truly original and thrilling work of art.

Book excerpt: This book is about the story of my childhood and what I had to endure growing up in a foreign country. It is about all the trials and tribulations a small child had to suffer and never once complained about. It contains a great deal of graphic details of things that were done to me and of the thoughts and emotions I had to go through. It contains my life story of when we reached the shores of Australia to the time I was 21 and was married. It will bring you to tears at times but I must tell you it left an indelible image in my psyche which I had to work through for years. It is all true to the best of my abilities as I remember these things happening to me. I have changed names and left last names out or just used initials as I didn't want to offend anyone who is still alive today. Please read it with and open mind and heart and allow me to show you what a child of society should never endure while they are innocent and growing up. Goulburn Post Newspaper Article.. A LOT of people are told they should write the story of their life, but Goulburn woman Andrea Reid has taken this advice seriously and done it. The book is called A New Beginning and it is about her experiences growing up in the Blue Mountains in the 1960s as the child of Dutch migrants. Mrs. Reid's family came to Australia in 1959, answering the Australian Government's call for skilled migrants. "Lots of them went to the Snowy Mountains Scheme but my father preferred the Blue Mountains and got a on the railways as an electrical engineer," she said. The book cover her life from ages 3 to 21 and contains many detailed references to a time passed in Australia's (for better and worse), including many snippets of life and times in the Blue Mountains in that era. But her childhood was a journey of pain and suffering. Mrs. Reid said she suffered abuse within her own family and bullying at school because she was different. "It seems like we were the only migrants at Lawson Public School," she said. "I was bullied and it was totally ignored back then and often the teachers would single you out and blame you for starting things as well." She said times were extremely tough at home as both of her parents became alcoholics and her mother suffered from undiagnosed schizophrenia for many years. As a child herself she was left to raise her brother and sister due to her parent's neglect. "I remember starving for most of my childhood," she said. "There was never enough food and I used to love going to friend's houses because I would often get fed there." She left home as soon as she could to escape the abuse, and trained to be a nurse, but was raped and then fired from work. So began her life as a single mother until she met her husband. Mrs Reid's predominant message throughout the book is that children should not have to endure suffering like she did as a child. "Children are sensitive beings. We have a responsibility to them. We are ushers of life," Mrs Reid said. "My life was one of twists and turns that no child should ever have experienced." She said writing the book was cathartic and necessary. "This book cleaned a lot of mental anguish from my childhood," she said. "Writing the book gave me a purpose when my children left home and allowed me to clear all that stuff out." Mrs Reid was a nurse for 25 years, until a back injury prevented her from working. She originally came to Goulburn in 1986. She plans to write another book and travel to Holland and visit her relatives at some point.
