Book Description
Evil is everywhere. It surrounds us like a black stain. We try to keep it at bay with our good deeds—helping the elderly with their groceries, holding open the door to the lift—but these small acts mean little in the face of such resounding wickedness. Reese understands this better than most. He sees the darkness closing in on humanity and before he leaves the Sol System, he must make one last bid to push the darkness back. While trying to capture proof of the foul play inside the Indentured Servant program, Reese loses June to the hands of human traffickers. Now, Reese must go up against a vile plot that goes all the way to the very top of the Sol System. While Reese battles the evil around Seattle, Bit must fight her own demons lurking in the shadows of the Caprice. If they would only take on human form she could conquer them with her fists, but the longer she battles the more she realizes her issues aren’t with other crew members but with her own memories.

Wreck of the Pacific
Author: Frederick Marryat
Publisher: Graphic Arts Books
ISBN: 1513294326
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Wreck of the Pacific (1841) is a novel by Frederick Marryat. Inspired by the author’s experience as a captain in the Royal Navy, Wreck of the Pacific is a tale of disaster and survival on the high seas. Responding to such novels as Robinson Crusoe (1719) and The Swiss Family Robinson (1812), Marryat hoped to tell an entertaining story with a Christian moral while remaining true to the dangers of nautical life. “I am an old man, and it is of little consequence. I care little whether I am taken away a year or two sooner, but I do not like to see blossoms cut off in early spring: I may be of use if I remain, for I’ve an old head upon my shoulders, and I could not leave you all to perish when you might be saved if you only knew how to act. But here the seamen come—the boat is all ready, and they will now take poor Captain Osborn with them.” When the Pacific sails through a terrible storm, losing its masts and captain in one fell swoop, its crew are forced to make difficult decisions. Below deck, the Seagrave family are virtually helpless, left to the mercy of men and nature alike. While the first mate and surviving sailors load most of the provisions onto the only remaining yawl, Masterman Ready remains behind with the terrified landlubbers, offering his services should they find a way to survive. Soon, the ship drifts toward the shores of a deserted island, giving them the chance they so desperately need to survive. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Frederick Marryat’s Wreck of the Pacific is a classic of British literature reimagined for modern readers.
