Book Description
There is a wild land high up through the Himalayan Breach between Tibet and Nepal named Mustang where warlords rode and ruled and Western visitors were not welcome. This is a story of an American girl and an English boy who disappeared up through that breach into the Himalayan Mountains, a story of Khampa warriors who raided across the undefended, unmarked border between Mustang and Tibet. This of the Chinese and, too, of the fighters for whom lifes final victory was the taking of Chinese with them into death. And also of the beauty, the silence, the stench of fear, the crack of rifles, the gleam of blood, the feel of death beneath ones blade.

A Love Lost
Author: C.R. Rice
Publisher: 4 Horsemen Publications, Inc.
ISBN: 1644504006
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
This is not a love story: it’s a tragedy. Radnar and his friends were fun–loving boys, ready to take on the world, but he never wanted to be a warrior or lead armies like his powerful father. In truth, he never really knew what he wanted until he met Nessa the summer before his 16th birthday. From the moment their eyes met, his dark world was filled with light and his bitter heart swelled with hope. In her, he saw his always and forever. Everything changed on Radnar’s Ascension Day when Nessa was forced to leave, and he had to accept his new, terrible powers—and the grip they would have on his life. As fate would have it, Radnar crosses paths with Nessa again years later. Like the first rays breaking through a torrential rainstorm, he sees his salvation creeping above the horizon. Light has been brought back into his life. Only this isn’t a love story, it’s a tragedy … and fate is a cruel mistress.
