Book excerpt: A true story of the 29 men who brought back a WWII LST in 2000-01 from Crete, Greece to Mobile, AL. Robert Jornlin was made Captain by the crew replacing the original Captain. This is the behind the scenes story as told by him. He has given over 600 spellbounding talks all over the USA. The ship was in terrible shape, 58 yrs. old. The first men found the ship in the Greek Navy 'bone yard.' I told my wife I would be gone only six weeks, but repairs, red tape, and many obstacles placed in the way by our government delayed the departure. The fifty man crew dwindled to just twenty-eight as the Captain in desperation signed on a History Channel video photographer as a crewman. These delays pushed the departure into early winter in the Mediterranean Sea and North Atlantic, but these veterans would not give up on LST 325 that beached at Sicily in '43 and was at D-day June 6, 1944. Average age of this crew now 72, started from Crete on Nov.14th for the U.S. This is their story.

Book excerpt: THE RETURN OF SORAHB? Legend has it that when Farsala most needs a warrior to lead it, Sorahb will be restored by the god Azura. That time has come. After a devastating loss to the army of the Hrum, Farsala has all but fallen. Only the walled city of Mazad and a few of the more uninhabitable regions remain free of Hrum rule, and they seem destined to fall as well. Farsala needs a champion now. Three young people are waging battle as best they can. Soraya, Jiaan, and Kavi, their lives decimated by the Hrum, are each in a personal fight against their common enemy. Apart, their chances are slim, as none of them is Sorahb reborn. United, perhaps they can succeed. But only Time's Wheel can bring them together—if it turns the right way. If it doesn't, Farsala is surely doomed. In the sequel to the critically acclaimed Fall of a Kingdom (formerly titled Flame), the first book of the Farsala Trilogy, Hilari Bell draws readers deeper into the mythical land of Farsala and weaves an epic tale of destiny and danger.

Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times bestseller Mike Lupica comes the story of one unsuspecting boy poised to follow in his superhero father’s footsteps Fourteen-year-old Billy Harriman can feel the changes. The sharpening of his senses. The incredible strength. The speed, as though he can textmessage himself across miles. The confidence and the strange need to patrol Central Park at night. His dad had been a hero, a savior to America and a confidante of the president. Then he died, and the changes began in Billy. What Billy never knew was that his father was no ordinary man-he was a superhero, battling the world's evil. This is a battle that has been waged for generations and that knows no boundaries. And now it's Billy's turn to take on the fight. It's Billy's turn to become a hero. “[N]othing Mike Lupica has written will thrill you like this.” –William Goldman, author of The Princess Bride “Sportswriter and novelist Lupica offers a change of pace from his previous sports stories for younger readers, deftly reworking the traditional superhero origin story into a moving tale of adolescent growth.” –Publisher’s Weekly “[T]he stage is set for a sequel to what looks like a surefire hit.” –School Library Journal
