Book excerpt: As a plague descends on Medieval England, a courageous Lady must protect her land and people at all costs in this historical novel: “Enthralling” (Julian Fellowes, creator of The Gilded Age). England, 1348. When the Black Death arrives in Dorset, no one knows what manner of sickness it is or how it spreads and kills so quickly. The Church proclaims it a punishment from God, insisting that daily confession is their only hope for survival. But Lady Anne of Devilish has different ideas. With her trusted steward Thaddeus at her side—and her brutal husband absent—she gathers her serfs within the moated walls of Devilish and refuse entry to outsiders, including her husband. Bu in such a confined space, conflicts soon arise. Ignorant of the world outside, Lady Anne’s people wrestle with the terrible uncertainty of their futures. And as food stocks run low, they begin to wonder how long they can survive within. The moment will come when they must cross the moat . . . and encounter a world transformed in ways they can’t imagine.

Book excerpt: While everything appears to be collapsing around us – ecodamage, genetic engineering, virulent diseases, the end of cheap oil, water shortages, global famine, wars – we can still do something about it and create a world that will work for us and for our children’s children. The inspiration for Leonardo DiCaprio’s feature documentary movie The Eleventh Hour and soon to be released HBO special Ice on Fire, Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight details what is happening to our planet, the reasons for our culture’s blind behavior, and how we can fix the problem. Thom Hartmann’s comprehensive book is one of the fundamental handbooks of the environmental activist movement. Now with fresh, updated material on our Earth’s rapid climate change and a focus on political activism and its effect on corporate behavior, The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight helps us understand – and heal – our relationship to the world, to each other, and to our natural resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Last Hours of Christ's Life traces the experience of Jesus from the Garden of Gethsemane, where He declared, ?My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death? (Mark 14:34), to the cross, where He cried out, ?It is finished? (John 19:30). These scenes may be familiar to many readers, but new insights and a new appreciation for what Christ has done will be gained by a careful and prayerful reading of this book. The reader will also get a close look at the men who played a part in the last hours of Christ's life. In a very real sense we have all betrayed, denied, and abused Christ, for those men long ago were just like we are, and today many are repeating history. This book presents warnings against doing as these men did. May the Holy Spirit speak to your heart and lead you to ?Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world? (John 1:29).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Under Sentence of Death" by Victor Hugo is a narrative of a man who is sentenced to die. The author displays thoughts of such a man, all the mental torture, and physical stress he experiences during the hours which are about to advance towards his planned execution. Excerpt: "Sentenced to death! For five whole weeks have I lived with this one thought, always alone with it, always frozen by its ghastly presence, always crushed beneath its overwhelming weight. At first, years ago, as it seemed, not mere weeks as it really was, I was a man like any other. Every day, every hour, every minute was ruled by its own idea. My intellect, young and fresh, lost itself in a world of fantasy. I amused myself in mapping out a life without order, and without end, weaving into a thousand fantastic patterns the coarse and slender tissue of my existence. There were lovely girls, cardinals' copes, victories won, theatres full of life and light, and then again the young girls, and walks in the twilight under the spreading boughs of the chestnut trees. My imagination always pictured scenes of pleasure. My thoughts were free, and therefore I was free also."
