Book Description
After decades of internecine warfare, the tribes of the Tiste Edur have at last united under the Warlock King of the Hiroth. There is peace--but it has been exacted at a terrible price: a pact made with a hidden power whose motives are at best suspect, at worst, deadly. To the south, the expansionist kingdom of Lether, eager to fulfill its long-prophesized renaissance as an Empire reborn, has enslved all its less-civilized neighbors with rapacious hunger. All, that is, save one--the Tiste Edur. And it must be only a matter of time before they too fall--either beneath the suffocating weight of gold, or by slaughter at the edge of a sword. Or so destiny has decreed. Yet as the two sides gather for a pivotal treaty neither truly wants, ancient forces are awakening. For the impending struggle between these two peoples is but a pale reflection of a far more profound, primal battle--a confrontation with the still-raw wound of an old betrayal and the craving for revenge at its seething heart.

Destiny in the Desert
Author: Jonathan Dimbleby
Publisher: Profile Books
ISBN: 1847654673
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 727
Book Description
It was the British victory at the Battle of El Alamein in November 1942 that inspired one of Winston Churchill's most famous aphorisms: 'This is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end, but it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning'. And yet the significance of this episode remains unrecognised. In this thrilling historical account, Jonathan Dimbleby describes the political and strategic realities that lay behind the battle, charting the nail-biting months that led to the victory at El Alamein in November 1942. It is a story of high drama, played out both in the war capitals of London, Washington, Berlin, Rome and Moscow, and at the front in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Morrocco and Algeria and in the command posts and foxholes in the desert. Destiny in the Desert is about politicians and generals, diplomats, civil servants and soldiers. It is about forceful characters and the tensions and rivalries between them. Drawing on official records and the personal insights of those involved at every level, Dimbleby creates a vivid portrait of a struggle which for Churchill marked the turn of the tide - and which for the soldiers on the ground involved fighting and dying in a foreign land. Now available in paperback in time, Destiny in the Desert, which was shortlisted for the Hessell-Tiltman prize 2012-13, is required reading for anyone with an interest in the Desert War.

Book Description
The complete Destiny's Cove series in one sweet box set. Come to the town where soul mates find each other. This sweet romance collection includes: a lighthearted Christmas romance, a sweet friends-to-lovers romance, and a secret identity romance. Take a small town in the southwest of Florida with white beaches and crystal clear waters. Add legends of pirates and hidden treasures. Bring an alleged matchmaking ghost into the mix.

Book 1: A Trip With Destiny Giorgia Di Maggio has left Italy on a sabbatical to reinvent herself. An adventurous one-week vacation in a small Florida town wasn't exactly what she had in mind, but when she meets the handsome Irish owner of the local pub and a series of odds coincidences keep bringing them together, she finds herself reconsidering her plans. Book 2: A Brush With Love Kyla Callaghan left Destiny's Cove to chase a dream in New York, but she never stopped thinking about the guy who saved her life and secretly captured her heart in high school. When she returns to her hometown for a short visit nine years later, and he saves her once again, she can't help but wonder whether the town legend of the matchmaking ghost might be real after all. Book 3: A Cruise With Romance At twenty-four, Cara McGill is tired of living her mother's dream on her behalf as a famous musician, and she finds herself longing for an escape. Making a spur-of-the-moment decision, she runs to a small town in Florida where she hopes to reinvent her life. Stumbling across the town playboy could mess up all her plans, especially as she realizes there's more behind that façade of his, something that might very well be all she's been looking for in a man.
