Book Description
Open Book of the lion-hearted is the title of the book. The opening statement is validated many times with incident, example and often forgiving magnanimity in what is clearly a Vincentian literary keepsake, to which Vincentians of every origin, race, and position can relate to. As the opening quote suggests, the traits of perseverance, and integrity, set in an often-troubled depiction of Caribbean life, are balanced with a sense of humour and dignified clarity, spiced with specific details of life, culture, history, sociology, spanning five decades. It also offers much insight into the medical profession (right down to terminology and examples) here in the Caribbean from SVG to Cuba. I have seldom read a literary work abounding with as much relevant Caribbean (Vincentian) detail as in this book. - Colin King Journals (first published in the Searchlight Newspaper)

Book Description
Of all the agents within the Meridian Intelligence Department, Lindy Tremaine is considered one of the finest. Clever, sophisticated, and confident, she's determined to protect the planets of the Kellan Star System from crooks and criminals, even if it means going undercover as a fashion journalist. Tragedy, however, lies beneath Lindy's self-possessed demeanor. She is an empath, a native of the war-torn Valya, and the man responsible for her mother's death-the former prince Rael Navorre-still rules her home planet with an iron hand. Haunted by fragmented memories of bloodshed, Lindy refuses to revisit Valya or embrace her heritage, preferring to invest in her work and her adopted family. But now Lindy and her best friend, Jo Camrin, have received the most daunting assignment of their MID careers: they must protect Valya's exiled royal family during peace negotiations with Rael. Committed to her job despite her fears, Lindy soon uncovers a web of lies and technological horrors...as well as the best-kept secret in the Star System.

Pages : 200
Book Description
Investigative journalist Sean Bryant is hot on the trail of the Knights Tempest, an underground, neo-Nazi organization making preparations for its own final solution to society’s undesirables – any minority without the power to fight back. Hotter still is the unexpected involvement of six well-respected public figures, but before he can expose them, he and his story are stolen away into the night. As violence rages throughout Europe – bombings and shootings at the hands of the Knights Tempest – the true scope of their vision for domination unfolds, led by the eponymous Lionheart, whose controversial identity remains a mystery. A Special Forces team may be the only thing capable of matching the fundamentalist right-wingers with a suitable demise. The fact that the team comprises a black man, a gay man and a woman is an irony that cannot go unnoticed. With danger attacking from all sides, it’s not a great time to be an investigative journalist.

Lionheart
Author: Douglas Boyd
Publisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0750954752
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
When people think of Richard the Lionheart they recall the scene at the end of every Robin Hood epic when he returns from the Crusades to punish his treacherous brother John and the wicked Sheriff of Nottingham. In reality Richard detested England and the English, was deeply troubled by his own sexuality and was noted for greed, not generosity, and for murder rather than mercy. In youth Richard showed no interest in girls; instead, a taste for cruelty and a rapacity for gold that would literally be the death of him. To save his own skin, he repeatedly abandoned his supporters to an evil fate, and his indifference to women saw the part of queen at his coronation played by his formidable mother, Queen Eleanor. His brief reign bankrupted England twice, destabilised the powerful empire his parents had put together and set the scene for his brother's ruinous rule. So how has Richard come to be known as the noble Christian warrior associated with such bravery and patriotism? Lionheart reveals the scandalous truth about England's hero king – a truth that is far different from the legend that has endured for eight centuries.

When Lions and Wales rugby star Richard Hibbard crashed into George Smith under a clear night sky in Australia, it felt as though the tremors might have rocked Sydney Harbour Bridge. Smith was the ‘Mr Indestructible’ of Australian rugby, yet he was helped off the pitch.

Soon, pictures of "Hibbz" celebrating in the dressing room with James Bond actor Daniel Craig were being beamed around the world. In Lionheart the Ospreys star reflects on his long and often rocky road to the top of world rugby: from his roots in Port Talbot, to his stint with rugby league club Aberavon Fighting Irish, to fighting back from countless serious injuries.
