Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 19 of the May Swenson Poetry Award Series, 2016 Throughout this haunting first collection, Patricia Colleen Murphy shows how familial mental illness, addiction, and grief can render even the most courageous person helpless. With depth of feeling, clarity of voice, and artful conflation of surrealist image and experience, she delivers vivid descriptions of soul-shaking events with objective narration, creating psychological portraits contained in sharp, bright language and image. With Plathian relentlessness, Hemming Flames explores the deepest reaches of family dysfunction through highly imaginative language and lines that carry even more emotional weight because they surprise and delight. In landscapes as varied as an Ohio back road, a Russian mental institution, a Korean national landmark, and the summit of Kilimanjaro, each poem sews a new stitch on the dark tapestry of a disturbed suburban family’s world. The May Swenson Poetry Award is an annual competition named for May Swenson, one of America’s most provocative and vital writers. During her long career, Swenson was loved and praised by writers from virtually every school of American poetry. She left a legacy of fifty years of writing when she died in 1989. She is buried in her hometown of Logan, Utah.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Those They Serve is an action-packed thriller about a plan to steal the Crown Jewels of Great Britain. Because of the world crises, Major Wilson's rifle company has been involved in near continual combat situations, causing the Major to grow disillusioned and angry at the way his men have been killed and injured, due to the British Government's foreign policy. One day the Major is sitting in the officer's mess when one of his officers tells him he has heard of a hypothetical plan to steal the Crown Jewels while their battalion is on public duties in London. The more Wilson thinks about it, the more he feels this simple plan might actually work. Ultimately he decides that if the British Government doesn't care about compensating his men for their sacrifices then he will do something about it himself. Along with the officers and Senior NCO's of his rifle company, Wilson hatches a plan to carry out the most audacious robbery in the history of the United Kingdom. But then, of course, every plan has its shortcomings...Born in the Welsh town of Dolgellau and raised in Shrewsbury Shropshire in the UK, Gwyn Roberts joined the army in 1973 and served with the 1st Battalion The Royal Welch Fusiliers for ten years.After being discharged he found work with the British Railways. Now retired, he currently lives in Stafford with his partner Barbara and a border collie called Max. Apart from writing, he is involved in scale military modelling and fundraising for the Royal Naval Association of Stafford. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/GwynRobert

Book excerpt: In a ripped-from-the-headlines story, nineteen-year-old Blair's passion for fighting fires lands her a spot with the Forest Service and sets her on a wilderness adventure that quickly turns catastrophic. How far would you go to save yourself? Blair Scott is in her second season as a wildland firefighter when the Forest Service puts out a call for an additional class of smokejumpers. She and her best friend Jason both apply, though neither expects to get in since they’re only nineteen. But it’s been a devastating fire season, and they are both accepted. But going to training camp is only the first step—everyone expects the teenage rookies will wash out in the first week. Blair has always been touchy about people telling her she isn’t good enough, so she begins taking unnecessary risks to prove herself. It doesn’t take long before everything spins out of control, leaving Blair struggling to cope. A story of courage, self-knowledge, and ultimate triumph over the elements, Jumper is a dramatic wilderness adventure that explores what it takes to survive—in every sense of the word. * "Never less than riveting." –Kirkus, starred review * "[A] pulse-pounding thriller." –Publisher's Weekly, starred review YALSA Top 10 Quick Picks for Reluctant Readers selection 2023 YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults selection 2024 Texas TAYSHAS Reading List selection Reading the West Book Award longlist
