Book excerpt: This unforgettable, sweeping odyssey will take you through the heartbreaking reality of the modern era refugees. This novel was selected by BookAuthority, as one of the best books to read about the Syrian Civil War. Ajar was an ordinary child, just like anyone else. Not anymore. Not since that day, when the muses went silent and the cannons were heard. Syrian Civil War erupted, shuffling the cards, uprooting inhabitants and making them fight for their lives. When troubles begun looming on their peaceful town, Ajar fled with his family, forcing their way to safety. Their desperate search for asylum took them away on a tense and dangerous route, caught in the crossfires of burgeoning anarchy. Inadvertently finding themselves in their new status as refugees, they soon realized that it is just the beginning of their downfall. The new reality placed them at the receiving end of a corrupt and broken system, where they faced injustice, prejudice and racism. Struggling with an ever-alienating reality, drowning at the gutters of the crime underworld, getting in troubles with ruthless terrorists, the family is forced to flee time after time, on their way to yet another dangerous journey across the Mediterranean Sea. Does their strength as a family can withstand the perils on their path? Are they going to outrun the misfortunes and find a semblance of normalcy again? Deeply moving, achingly gripping and staggeringly relevant in today's tumultuous reality, When Winds Blow West is a gut-wrenching tale of a family trying to find peace and stability in a world that won't recognize them. "It is a very well crafted, page-turning epic that sweeps through all emotions and speaks to the most major ills of Earth" - Fran Lebowitz Rittman, Editor and Former Literary Agent, Writers House.

Krzak, Award-Winning Author "Really enjoyed reading this well written novel.

It made me wonder how fast ordinary life can turn into life on the run." - reader's review, Goodreads "I found the book moving from start to finish. The action, the emotion, the anguish, the unforeseen twists, combined with tremendously fine character portraits brought a new dimension to the horrifying situation. I feel this is a masterful storyteller." - reader's review, Goodreads "One of the best pieces I've read so far in the historical fiction genre.

And in Wayward Son, they wondered whether everything they understood about themselves might be wrong. Now, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha must decide how to move forward. For Simon, that means choosing whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages — and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had enough.

It’s 1491. In the small village of Oakham, its wealthiest and most industrious resident, Tom Newman, is swept away by the river during the early hours of Shrove Saturday. Was it murder, suicide, or an accident? Narrated from the perspective of local priest John Reve—patient shepherd to his wayward flock—a shadowy portrait of the community comes to light through its residents’ tortured revelations. As some of their darkest secrets are revealed, the intrigue of the unexplained death ripples through the congregation. But will Reve, a man with secrets of his own, discover what happened to Newman? And what will happen if he can’t? Written with timeless eloquence, steeped in the spiritual traditions of the Middle Ages, and brimming with propulsive suspense, The Western Wind finds Samantha Harvey at the pinnacle of her outstanding novelistic power. “Beautifully rendered, deeply affecting, thoroughly thoughtful and surprisingly prescient . . . a story of a community crowded with shadows and secrets.” —The New York Times Book Review “Ms. Harvey has summoned this remote world with writing of the highest quality, conjuring its pungencies and peculiarities.” —The Wall Street Journal “Brings medieval England back to life.” —The Washington Post
