Book Description
A nation's fate rests one one man's struggle between loyalty and desire. His enemies call Prince Richius "the Jackal," but he is merely a reluctant warrior for the Emperor in the fight for the strife-ridden borderland of Lucel-Lor. And though the empire's war machines are deadly, when the leader of a fanatical sect sweeps the battlefield with potent magic, Richius's forces are routed. He returns home defeated—but the Emperor will not accept the loss. Soon Richius is given one last chance to pit the empire's science against the enemy's devastating magic, and this time he fights for more than a ruler's mad whim. This time Richius has his own obsessive quest—and where he hesitated to go for an emperor's greed, for love he will plunge headlong into the grasp of the deadliest enemy he has ever encountered. . . .

A Bed for the King's Daughter
Author: Shahla Ujayli
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 1477322302
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 59
Book Description
A groundbreaking collection of experimental short fiction by award-winning Syrian author and Booker International Prize for Arabic Fiction nominee Shahla Ujayli, A Bed for the King’s Daughter uses surrealism and irony to examine such themes as women’s agency, the decline of collective life and imagination under modernity, and the effects of social and political corruption on daily life. In “The Memoir of Cinderella’s Shoes,” Cinderella uses her famous glass slipper as a weapon in order to take justice into her own hands. In “Tell Me About Surrealism,” an art history professor’s writing assignment reveals the slipperiness of storytelling, and in “Merry Christmas,” the realities of apartheid interfere with one family’s celebration. Through twenty-two short stories, Ujayli animates—with brevity and inventiveness—themes relevant to both the particularities of life in the Arab world and life outside it.

Book Description
Dave Smith is having a bad day, week, month, maybe even year.Freshly unemployed, facing eviction and now he's been transported to a fantasy world. A wish come true for many a geek, if only he hadn't died less than a day after he arrived.Now trapped in this fantasy realms version of purgatory, he faces the prospect of trying to navigate a new existence as a dungeon. That wouldn't be so bad, except ending dungeons seems to be the path out for many of the other denizens of these Proving Grounds.To make matters worse the deities of this place have taken a special interest in complicating his stay, for their own, as yet unstated reasons.On the upside he has a new buff and studly avatar and any sexy fantasy ladies who happen to fall in his dungeon are his to keep, to strengthen his dungeon obviously. Nudge, nudge, wink wink.Downside, most of the raiders in his region are bearded dudes or ugly and orc like.What's a guy whose life experiences include gaming and working a series of crummy customer service jobs to do. Answer. Work the system, be as obnoxiously obstinate as he can be and bend every rule like it's made of rubber. Oh and whine, just a little bit, well it is all very unfair.(This content is for mature adults, it includes explicit sex with multiple female partners, violence, profanity, actions and opinions that contravene current societal norms and legality. As well as a bit of juvenile humour, stats, levelling eventually. Contains Gamelit and Haremlit elements )

The Songs of the Kings
Author: Barry Unsworth
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0525435247
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
A brilliant retelling of an ancient myth, The Songs of the Kings offers up a different narrative of the Trojan War, one devoid of honor, wherein the mission to rescue Helen is a pretext for plundering Troy of its treasures. As the ships of the Greek fleet find themselves stalled in the straits at Aulis, waiting vainly for the gods to deliver more favorable winds, Odysseus cynically advances a call for the sacrifice of Agamemnon’s daughter, Calchas the diviner interprets events for the reader, and a Homer-like figure called the Singer is persuaded to proclaim a tale of a just war to hide the corrupt motivations of those in power. But couched within the Singer’s spin is a message at once timely and timeless: “There is always another story. But it is the stories told by the strong, the songs of kings, that are believed in the end.”
