Book excerpt: The girl, Baz, and the boy, Demi, are master pickpockets. They weave through rich neighborhoods to slip bags off shoulders and wallets out of pockets before disappearing into the crowd. Their loot goes to Fay, who runs a gang of child thieves from her den in the Barrio. This sweltering slum—in a city that is imagined, but all too real—is what passes for home to the kids, and Fay is what passes for family. That all changes the day Demi steals a magnificent blue ring. Soon, the police chief and the Barrio's crime boss close in on Fay, and she begins to break under their pressure. Baz has never doubted Fay before. She's never been apart from Demi, either. But soon, Baz is left alone to find her way through a world more corrupt than she's ever realized. Here, the lives of children are thrown away without a moment's hesitation. Here, the rich and powerful are just thieves on a larger scale. And somewhere in this wreck of a city, Baz must find the scraps of hope, the small acts of kindness, and the steely strength that will take her back to Demi and wash them both out of the Barrio for good.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Jacquelyn Frank comes the captivating conclusion to the sizzling series featuring four immortal warrior brothers who love as hard as they fight. After drinking from the fountain of immortality along with his brothers, Maxum is condemned by the gods to be entombed in the earth. Even though he has now been granted a reprieve by day, each night he is buried anew, his rock-hard body immobilized, his bones crushed by the pressure. When he emerges, his body heals, but his spirit remains scarred. There is only one way for Maxum to be completely free: He must kill the god who cursed him. The task will require tremendous power, so Maxum must gather talismans to equip him for the battle. To help him on this quest, Maxum approaches the alluring Airianne and strikes a bargain as tempting as it is audacious. A skilled thief, Airianne could be a valuable ally, if only Maxum could trust her. Will this stealthy seductress also try to steal his heart—or will their boldness end up getting them both buried?

Book excerpt: Follow the adventures of Gaspar, a freelance thief who stubbornly refuses to swear fealty to the Thieves' Guild. Cursed with a special affinity for calamity and mishap, and a talent for snatching defeat from the brink of victory, our hero blunders from one misfortune to the next, yet somehow always manages to survive to tell the tale. Accompanied by his long-suffering companions - Hubris, a spellbroker who refuses to pay his dues to Wizards' Hall; Marna, a feisty thiefess with a quick tongue and a quicker temper; and Drune, a mischievous wight with an unusual magical ability - our unlikely hero encounters looming retribution and imminent catastrophe at every step. Whether raiding a sinister funeral ship, foiling a scheming seductress, solving a puzzling murder, or confronting a gang of villainous ship-wreckers, Gaspar always somehow manages to narrowly side step disaster. But there's seemingly no end to the troubles he can find, and he soon finds himself an unwitting player in the siege of an ancient border fortress by a goblin army. Told with an appealing mixture of seriousness and humour, this is an exciting, fast-paced romp based in a fantasy world where anything can, and usually does, happen!

Book excerpt: What is luck? The chances are you don’t really know, but you probably believe in it, and I bet you invoke the word every day of your life ... ‘Bad luck!’ ‘That was lucky!’ ‘You should be so lucky!’ ‘What a lucky escape!’– said with varying degrees of intensity, relief, sarcasm, amusement, incredulity or disgust. But what is luck? This book tries to determine what luck is, how it operates in our lives, and how far the individual is at its mercy – favoured by good luck or cursed by bad? Is there any justice or fair play in life, or are these merely human concepts that don’t exist in the laws governing the universe? Whatever you think you believe, by the time you have read this book, the odds are that you will have changed your mind. James M Killeen’s analysis ranges from Astrology to Zoroastrianism and everything in between: the big bang and the butterfly effect, destiny and determinism, fortune-telling and feng shui, gambling and game theory, miracles and Murphy’s Law, oracles and ordeals, philosophy and religion, precognition and the placebo effect, serendipity and synchronicity. A Matter of Luck is a highly readable yet thought-provoking work, interspersed with illuminating and amusing examples to illlustrate each facet of this fascinating subject: for example, the true stories of the man who broke the bank at Monte Carlo, King Umberto and the chef, James Dean’s car, and the woman who simultaneously chose the winning numbers for both the Massachusetts and Rhode Island lotteries (although the numbers she chose for the Rhode Island lottery were the winning numbers for the Massachusetts lottery, and vice versa). Lucky or unlucky – you decide, if you can.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the 8th August 1963 a gang of 15 men stopped a mail train in Buckinghamshire and proceeded to steal sacks of money worth £2.6 million. It was the biggest heist ever carried out in the UK and frontpage news around the world. The mastermind behind this most audacious crime of the twentieth century was Bruce Reynolds. Perhaps the last of the 'gentlemen villains'; Reynolds epitomised that particular breed of sharply dressed, post-war criminals who mixed with royalty and movie stars, and never carried a gun. They thrived on adventure and glamour, and the Great Train Robbery was their last ride. From his childhood and early forays into crime, to planning the robbery and his life on the run, and finally his capture, prison years and growing old with the gang - this is a true crime classic. Widely regarded as a one of the finest memoirs of a life of crime, Autobiography of a Thief is essential listening for anyone interested in true crime. Narrated by his son, Nick Reynolds, who grew up on the run with his father.

Book excerpt: In his new book, A Treasure Trove of Spiritual Jewels, Bishop Isiah Lawrence Nottage presents eighteen gemstones for readers. This provocative, exciting, eye-opening book is a must-read. It proves the following: ? Jesus Christ made a roundtrip from earth to heaven and back within twelve hours on Easter Sunday Morning (Jesusday Morning). ? Judah, a Hebrew man, and Tamar, a colored Canaanite woman, were the father and mother of the tribe of Judah. ? The author explains Daniel chapter 11:1-45 verbatim/verse by verse, proving events that occurred in the remote past before Christ was born. ? There is 100 percent scriptural proof that Mary’s husband Joseph was the holder of David’s scepter as the spiritual king of the Jews, until Shiloh, or Jesus Christ, took it over and became the Messiah and the Spiritual king of the Jews. ? Biblical proof shows there were two resurrections on Easter Sunday Morning/Jesusday Morning. Bishop Nottage also discovers Moses’ family-clans in the scriptures and what their occupations were in Israel. Divine truth: Jesus Christ is not the Almighty God, but rather the son of God. A Treasure Trove of Spiritual Jewels unravels many more spiritual gold nuggets and spiritual mysteries.

Book excerpt: "Seventeen year-old Kerida Nast may be the only Talent left in the Faraman Peninsula. Ker had always wanted a career in the military, just like the rest of her family, so when her Talent was discovered, and she knew she'd have to spend the rest of her life as a psychic for the Halls of Law, she wasn't happy about it. Just as she's reconciling herself to her new role, the centuries old empire is invaded by strangers from Halia, who begin a systematic campaign of destruction against the Halls themselves, killing every last Talent they can find. Kerida manages to escape, falling in with Tel Cursar, a young soldier fleeing the final battle, which saw the deaths of the royal family. Without this necessary leadership, the remaining military will not be able to act quickly enough to save the empire. As they head for a military outpost still free from the invaders, Kerida and Tel discover a long-hidden colony of Feelers, paranormal outcasts shut away from the world for so long they are considered mythical. These traditional enemies of the Halls of Law welcome Kerida, believing she fulfils a Prophecy they were given centuries before by the last race of griffins. With the help of these new allies Kerida and Tel must track down the missing heir to the throne, or the Halian invaders will never be repelled, and the Rule of Law will end."--]cProvided by publisher.
