Shōgun
Author: James Clavell
Publisher: Blackstone Publishing
ISBN: 198253754X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 1483
Book Description
After Englishman John Blackthorne is lost at sea, he awakens in a place few Europeans know of and even fewer have seen—Nippon. Thrust into the closed society that is seventeenth-century Japan, a land where the line between life and death is razor-thin, Blackthorne must negotiate not only a foreign people, with unknown customs and language, but also his own definitions of morality, truth, and freedom. As internal political strife and a clash of cultures lead to seemingly inevitable conflict, Blackthorne’s loyalty and strength of character are tested by both passion and loss, and he is torn between two worlds that will each be forever changed. Powerful and engrossing, capturing both the rich pageantry and stark realities of life in feudal Japan, Shōgun is a critically acclaimed powerhouse of a book. Heart-stopping, edge-of-your-seat action melds seamlessly with intricate historical detail and raw human emotion. Endlessly compelling, this sweeping saga captivated the world to become not only one of the best-selling novels of all time but also one of the highest-rated television miniseries, as well as inspiring a nationwide surge of interest in the culture of Japan. Shakespearean in both scope and depth, Shōgun is, as the New York Times put it, “...not only something you read—you live it.” Provocative, absorbing, and endlessly fascinating, there is only one: Shōgun.

Pages : 526
Book Description
Only one thing stands between Sebastian and his revenge. He's falling in love with his prey… Ivy Kinley destroyed a young man, heart and soul. Now, she's the target of a cruel game where she is the prize. Wagers are placed: Survive her or win her. Sebastian Cain, the Earl of Ravenswood, is undaunted by Ivy's reputation. Returning to England, he means to avenge his cousin's tragic death and ruin the woman responsible. His plan-- lull her with an offer of friendship she cannot refuse. But until he has Ivy's heart bleeding and tattered in his pocket and the lady at his mercy and begging for more, he will pursue her. Can he tame her? Perhaps. Could he ruin her? Most definitely. Should Ivy trust his offer of friendship? Absolutely not. A quest for revenge becomes a mutual obsession for them both. Who will be ruined first? Who will be tamed? ***TAMING IVY contains sexual situations described in detail between the main characters as well as instances of dubious consent, strong language, references to suicide, abduction, and mental illness. If this type of subject matter disturbs you as a reader, please understand it is an integral part of the storyline and the characters' development. There are sexual interactions that some may consider dubious consent in nature as the characters fight their feelings for each other. My characters are flawed. They do awful things, behave even worse, make mistakes, apologize, stumble yet again, and still redeem themselves for the sake of true love. I also took generous liberty with the idea of Ivy being left mainly to her own devices with a grieving, frustrated father who is absent much of the time. ***

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
The Unknown Warriors is based on a true story set in the beauty and tragedy of Europe in the years just before the Second World War. Abrienda de Soza, inheritor of a fortune stolen from the coffers of Imperial Russia during the last days of the Russian Civil War, fights to keep her country out of the hands of both Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia and preserve a culture threatened by both through any means possible. Nika Molnar, an agent working for Hungarian Intelligence’s Special Unit, seeks to exact vengeance on the man who murdered her father when she was a child. Impeccably researched, The Unknown Warriors captures the feel and nuance of a world soon to be destroyed forever—a uniquely told and deeply compelling story of war, intrigue and betrayal, but also of love and sacrifice played out against the backdrop of a world heading inexorably towards war. The title is taken from a speech by Winston Churchill. “This is a War of Unknown Warriors, but let all strive without failing in faith or duty...”
