Land of mists and mysteries, where mankind resembled gods. But these gods were flawed and they turned their powers on each other, making rivers of blood and birthing horrors we were not meant to know, until giants battled demons over the fate of the world. And then, as the fighting reached its peak, a great power reached out and Albion simply vanished. For over a thousand years it has been hidden from the eyes of men. When the impenetrable mists hiding Albion began to lift, the King of the Old World sent a rag tag group to explore and settle there. Initially, reports of wonders and wealth came back, then, without warning, all went quiet. Now a new convoy is being sent, seven ships sailing for the mysterious land of Albion. Their crews and captains have many reasons to risk the journey, a mix of opportunists, adventurers, and those keen to leave behind their old lives. But the sins of the past are not so easily left behind and the lure of power and magic weaves its spell long before arrival. Before the ships have even made landfall, old rivalries simmer and, without warning, one ship turns its weapons upon another.

Book Synopsis The Children of Albion by : Freelance Journalist Jill Turner
Download or read book The Children of Albion written by Freelance Journalist Jill Turner and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-28 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An urban 'Lord of The Flies' for our times." In post-millennial England, the next generation are falling through the gaps of a very broken society. In the wasteland of a English sink-estate, where the adults are lost to drink, drugs, poverty and destructive relationships, the next generation run feral, surviving day to day by any means possible. Starved of food, love and affection, the children face a bleak future following in the crime-riddled footsteps of their parents, and their parents' parents before them. However, when the middle-class dreamer, drop-out, and revolutionary teen, Albion makes camp in one of the derelict houses, an unlikely friendship is struck between him and Robbie, a boy born of the estate who desperately longs for things to be different. With dreams of establishing a modern-day Camelot, and refuge for those children let down by society, Albie and Robbie attempt to create a new and better world, but they soon discover the weight of a crown is a very heavy burden to bear, and the legacy of the last generation is a terrifying and consuming beast. EDITORIAL REVIEW In this real-life 'dystopian' novel, Jill Turner uses her extensive experience gained as a Fleet Street journalist (at The Sunday Times, Daily Mail, The Guardian and Daily Mirror) to shine a light into the shadowy corners of a sector of English society far removed from the Great British ideal. With a great sensitivity, and passionate desire for social change and intervention, Jill explores a narrative often ignored in English literature, giving a voice to a generation and social-group whose voice is so often ignored. In a country that boasts some of the most educated and richest citizens in the world, tens of thousands of British children are facing the challenge of simply surviving, of growing themselves up with very little love, affection or nurture; facing little alternative but to either sell themselves or turn to a life of violent crime just in order to live. 'The Children of Albion' is a stark observation through the eyes of the children, and offers a fascinating and eye-opening read. EXPLICIT - please be informed that there is extensive expletive usage and reference to themes of a more adult nature which are entirely reflective and in context with the story being told.
Book Synopsis Albion's Seed by : David Hackett Fischer
Download or read book Albion's Seed written by David Hackett Fischer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-03-14 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.

Book Synopsis Kings Of Albion by : Julian Rathbone
Download or read book Kings Of Albion written by Julian Rathbone and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: England, 1460: The War of the Roses. Rival factions - Lancastrians and Yorkists - are hacking each other to death in a conflict that only the English could name after a beautifully-scented flower. It's not an ideal climate for tourists - but three exotic travellers from the Far East are not here for pleasure. They've come to find a missing kinsman. The English, however, are truly strange. Most of the indigenous population are of the cowed peasant variety whilst any noble who can't trace his ancestry to Norman Conquest isn't, really, an awfully nice chap. In between battles of the most astonishing brutality they convey respects instead of affection, make love strangely (and briefly) and amuse themselves by playing a game with an inflated bladder that is in everyway a war except it's called 'footie'. The Indians think they're mad. They also have this horrible suspicion that one day they will rule the world... A wonderfully offbeat take on medieval England at its most brutal and savage, KINGS OF ALBION snatches history, imbues it with the spirit of Rider Haggard and Joseph Conrad, turns it on its head, invites scintillating speculation and, best of all, renders it into a fabulously readable novel.

Book excerpt: New Albion is a faerie city located on a magical island just off the coast of New York. It appeared, Brigadoon-like, in 1687, and the sudden arrival of elves, dwarves, and ancient magic shook the mundane world. Following the American Revolution in 1776, New Albion became its own sovereign nation, and as the centennial of its arrival approaches, the city is filled with intrigue, danger, excitement... and of course, magic. Chronicles of New Albion-1787 tells the tales of one year in the history of New Albion. It can stand on its own, but for the full experience, make sure to get the other three books, set in 1887, 1987, and 2187. From frock-coats to cyberpunks, you'll want to read all four volumes that make up the urban fantasy Chronicles of New Albion!
