Book Description
Foyle may have been denied the role of hero, but that doesn’t mean he can’t be a savior. Having changed his name to Ayame, he’s on a journey to save as many people as possible, accompanied by Iris, an elf with legendary healing powers. When Ayame and Iris arrive in the city of Rikko, they find preparations are underway for the Full Bloom Festival. The pair teams up with the Adventurer’s Guild as they hunt a dragon to gain the rare materials needed for the festival’s stunning fireworks display that will light up the night sky. Unfortunately, the festivities have invoked the envy of Sway Ka Senco (a member of the fearsome Eight Warlords) who’s determined to ruin the fun. With powerful ice magic that threatens to freeze the entire city and its people—their flesh, their souls, and the very ground beneath them included—Warlord Sway Ka Senco looks to be Ayame’s toughest opponent yet.

A Demon Lord has arisen, and the world awaits a hero.

Their paths forward seem decided when the goddess declares Foyle a “Hero,” while leaving Yu’s destiny unclear. But Foyle has a secret only he knows. The role given to him by the goddess is actually “Fake Hero.” Far from being destined to overthrow the Demon Lord, defeat awaits him at the true hero’s hand, and Foyle has a good idea who that will be. When Foyle expels Yu from his party, he cements his role as the true hero’s adversary. His powers begin to fade as his friend grows ever stronger. Foyle clearly won’t be the one to save the world, but after an encounter with a mysterious elf in need of help, he sets out to prove that even the villain can be a hero to someone.

Crashing the Party
Author: Ralph Nader
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 142997852X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
Ralph Nader is one of America's most passionate and effective social critics. He has been called a muckraker, a consumer crusader, and America's public defender. The cars we drive, the food we eat, the water we drink-their safety has been enhanced largely due to Ralph Nader. His inspiration and example have rallied consumer advocates, citizen activists, public interest lawyers, and government officials into action, and in the 2000 election, nearly three million people voted for him. An inspiring and defiant memoir, Crashing the Party takes us inside Nader's campaign and explains what it took to fight the two-party juggernaut; why Bush and Gore were really afraid to let him in on their debates; why progressive Democrats have been left behind and ignored by their party; how Democrat and Republican interests have been lost to corporate bankrolling; and what needs to happen in the future for people to take back their political system.

Now an original movie on Prime Video starring Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine! When Solène Marchand, the thirty-nine-year-old owner of a prestigious art gallery in Los Angeles, takes her daughter, Isabelle, to meet her favorite boy band, she does so reluctantly and at her ex-husband’s request. The last thing she expects is to make a connection with one of the members of the world-famous August Moon. But Hayes Campbell is clever, winning, confident, and posh, and the attraction is immediate. That he is all of twenty years old further complicates things. What begins as a series of clandestine trysts quickly evolves into a passionate relationship. It is a journey that spans continents as Solène and Hayes navigate each other’s disparate worlds: from stadium tours to international art fairs to secluded hideaways in Paris and Miami. And for Solène, it is as much a reclaiming of self, as it is a rediscovery of happiness and love. When their romance becomes a viral sensation, and both she and her daughter become the target of rabid fans and an insatiable media, Solène must face how her new status has impacted not only her life, but the lives of those closest to her.
