Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liam never knew who his father was. The town of Derry had always assumed that he was the bastard of a protestant — his mother never spoke of him, and Liam assumed he was dead. But when the war between the fallen and the fey began to heat up, Liam and his family are pulled into a conflict that they didn't know existed. A centuries old conflict between supernatural forces seems to mirror the political divisions in 1970's era Ireland, and Liam is thrown headlong into both conflicts! Only the direct intervention of Liam's real father, and a secret catholic order dedicated to fighting "The Fallen" can save Liam... from the mundane and supernatural forces around him, and from the darkness that lurks within him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive one-volume history of Israel by its most distinguished historian From its Zionist beginnings at the end of the nineteenth century through the past sixty, tumultuous years, the state of Israel has been, as van Creveld argues, "the greatest success story in the entire twentieth century." In this crisp volume, he skillfully relates the improbable story of a nationless people who, given a hot and arid patch of land and coping with every imaginable obstacle, founded a country that is now the envy of surrounding states. While most studies on Israel focus on the political, this encompassing history weaves together the nation's economic, social, cultural and religious narratives while also offering diplomatic solutions to help Israel achieve peace. Without question, this is the best one-volume history of Israel and its people.

Book excerpt: 'There is no one writing better police procedurals today.' Daily Telegraph Is time running out for DI Joe Faraday? The discovery of a headless corpse on the rocks below the cliffs on the Isle of Wight is only the beginning of a journey for DI Joe Faraday. It's a journey which takes him right to the heart of the grim trade in human cargo from the crippled societies of the Balkans. From cheap labour to prostitution, Portsmouth, like every other city in the UK is home to untold human misery; a black economy built on illegal immigration. Joe Faraday is determined to find the real criminals that lie behind the tabloid hysteria. DC Paul Winter on the other hand is determined only to find a way out of the disciplinary action that threatens his entire career. A burgeoning relationship with a young prostitute isn't exactly helping his cause. And for Winter, it's beginning to look as if time is running out...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Northern Ireland, 1977. Liam Kelly is many things: a former wheelman for the IRA, a one-time political prisoner, the half-breed son of a mystic Fey warrior and a mortal woman, and a troubled young man literally haunted by the ghosts of his past. Liam has turned his back on his land’s bloody sectarian Troubles, but the war isn’t done with him yet, and neither is an older, more mythic battle–between the Church and its demonic enemies, the Fallen. After centuries of misunderstanding and conflict, the Church is on the verge of accepting that the Fey and the Fallen are not the same. But to achieve this historic truce, Liam must prove to the Church’s Inquisitors that he is not a demon, even as he wrestles with his own guilt and confusion, while being hunted by enemies both earthly and unworldly. A shape-shifter by nature, Liam has a foot in two worlds–and it’s driving him mad.

Stories about her personal life dominate the front covers of magazines and are ubiquitous on Internet blogs. Yet Bob Simon's 2011 60 Minutes interview with Jolie shed new light on the beautiful actress's humanitarian achievements. Instead of learning about the daily comings and goings of Jolie from unnamed sources in dubious magazines, Simon's interview, entitled "Angelina Jolie: Behind the Camera,” allows the audience to have access to Angelina Jolie. The interview made me realize that the real Angelina Jolie is a different person from the character I see in tabloid magazines.

EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Bob Simon meets with Angelina Jolie at the Budapest museum that served as the set for In the Land of Blood and Honey. The interview shows Simon and Jolie at various locations on the museum grounds. Simon's interview touches upon both Jolie's professional and personal life in order to give viewers an accurate portrait of the famous, and occasionally infamous, actress. Even viewers who are acquainted with Jolie will learn from Simon's interview. Jolie discusses the difficulties she experienced writing and directing her first film. She emphasizes that though the film is set during the war in Bosnia, it’s a love story, not a documentary. Jolie exclusively hired former Yugoslav actors and invited them to rewrite scenes to help with the story's authenticity. The interview includes the reactions of a group of actors during their first screening of the film. Having lived through the actual Bosnian war, they reaffirm that the tone of the film truly represents the Bosnian war. Despite Jolie's efforts to create a historically accurate movie, the film has faced some criticism. Many Bosnian women who were raped in POW camps took issue with a story that focuses on a romance between a prisoner and a POW jailer. Jolie's license to film in Budapest was temporarily revoked because of the outcry. As Simon's interview continues, viewers are reminded that Jolie is no stranger to controversy. The interview discusses briefly her past wild and unpredictable behavior, which was documented in the tabloids. Both Simon and Jolie now affirm that Jolie has matured. Jolie claims that she will always be a bad girl, but now she controls her energy with the help of her romantic partner, actor Brad Pitt. Buy a copy to keep reading!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bosnian war of 1992-1995 was one of the most brutal conflicts to have erupted since the end of the Second World War. But although the war occurred in 'Europe's backyard' and received significant media coverage in the West, relatively little scholarly attention has been devoted to cultural representations of the conflict. Stephen Harper analyses how the war has been depicted in global cinema and television over the past quarter of a century. Focusing on the representation of some of the war's major themes, including humanitarian intervention, the roles of NATO and the UN, genocide, rape and ethnic cleansing, Harper explores the role of popular media culture in reflecting, reinforcing -- and sometimes contesting -- nationalist ideologies.
