Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
It hasn't been long since the times of troubles that everyone calls 'before.' Everyone who survived that time was hidden away in the bowels of the earth, or so it was believed. Disease, famine, and evil men forced those buried under the great mountain out into a new world. Men carry swords, drive wagons, ride horses, and live a life free of all the things that created the great desolation. Seeking Power Darius the Conqueror overthrew King Franklin and put his family to the sword. Tareate was wounded but escaped, as did a few others, and there was a rumor of the survival of a rightful heir to the throne. It's been twenty years since that evil act. A sword maker, a magician, and a thief found themselves all condemned by King Rinus of Sareno. They escaped his prison and stumbled onto a quest forged by fate for just those three. Plagued by demons, evil, and injustice, they form the L'Chaim Covenant, a pledge of life to one another and perhaps to their whole world, too.

L'Chaim
Author: Angelica M. Osborne
Publisher: Angelica M. Osborne, distributed by Farcountry Press
ISBN: 1591521998
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
Margit lived but did not tell her story. How a fourteen-year-old German girl in Frankfurt am Main was picked up by the Gestapo in 1944, endured and survived the horrors of the Holocaust, rescued herself, and went on to lead a seemingly perfect life in the United States, was a story she left to her daughter, the author, to discover. This unique account is unembellished beyond ascertainable facts but as riveting as any Holocaust novel. Margit's several cards and letters written from the detention center and the concentration camp are heartrending but reveal an inner strength that carried her through the ordeal. The backstory of how Angie Osborne, motivated by her faith and grandchildren, traveled to Europe to uncover her mother's story from only a few fragments nearly twenty years after Margit's death is awe inspiring. This story will resonate with anyone intrigued by personal stories of World War II, students of that history, especially adolescents, and is a lesson of the price innocents pay in a world ruled by ethnic and racial division. Includes photos, maps, and numerous documents from Margit's personal history. Three appendices.
