Book excerpt: Jonathan Forrest presents a collection of twelve stories that reveal the darkest secrets and explore the depths of horror. In the novella Ronin Boy a boy without name wielding a katana is sentenced to a place of torture and torment beyond imagination. He must now navigate his way through a world of madness, an ever-changing nightmare landscape where the laws of reality no longer exist. In Secret Spitters Society three eleven-year-old friends sneak into a grandmothers wine cellar and invent a drinking game. Each boy tells a secret and takes a sip of wine. If the secret is false, the teller spits out the wine; if the secret is true, the boy swallows. What other secrets reside in the cellar? A hellish monstrosity lurks on the far side of a tall fence; a warped madness compels a child to venture deep into a sandstorm; and unspeakable terrors transpire within a cornfield as Forrest weaves random slices of life into an emotional presentation that lures the minds eye into a fascinating and complex darkness where Vile Little Things await.

Book excerpt: This is a tale of friendship, greed, and betrayal in the music industry—and a definitive history of America's biggest rap mogul. No one knows more about creating hits than Sean “Puffy” Combs. For years he virtually ran hip-hop. It seemed the perfect arrangement: “Puffy” provided the sounds and obsessive attention to detail while the Notorious B.I.G. promoted an image that kept rap fans happy. It should have lasted forever, but “Biggie” was murdered at the height of his career—and “Puffy”'s ascension to superstardom ushered in an age of disloyalty and deception that exploded into one of the greatest debacles in the history of the music industry. Through interviews with label insiders, grand jury testimony, and other sources, America's preeminent rap journalist Ronin Ro -reveals the true story of “Puffy” -addresses the larger issues that shaped the man and the industry -explains how Bad Boy both helped and destroyed hip-hop and R&B music -details why some artists “Puffy” created ultimately left his Bad Boy family in disgust. At once an intimate history and a portrait of an era, Bad Boy shows readers exactly how Combs lost his strangle-hold over the multibillion-dollar rap music industry. The story of Bad Boy Entertainment is the story of the American Dream, an up-close and personal account of the people, the money, the creative process that made it all come true, and the young mogul who caused the dream to fall apart. In this hip-hop tragedy of Shakespearean dimensions, readers finally learn the story that Sean “Puffy” Combs does not want them to know.

Book excerpt: Tribe of Legend: Book 1—The Awakening is an epic coming-of-age story highlighting the bond between a brother and sister living in the inner cities of South Florida. The pair of siblings strive to discover who they are while taking on staggering social stereotypes and stigmas placed upon them by society and institutions in their surrounding environment. Fighting to carve out and take hold of their own individual identities, the young teenagers will soon find themselves on an arduous journey of growth. An ordinary outing in the city on a Friday evening for the brother and sister with friends suddenly turns into a nightmarish gauntlet of running into reality-breaking encounters and mysteries that will challenge the unity and loyalties of close relationships. In addition, it reveals to the siblings that the world around them has much more beyond its veil to show them, than what the average eyes will allow itself to see, and lost secrets of the past affecting the balance of the cosmos are directly linked to the siblings.

Women have been fighting for equality and seeking justice in various aspects like equal wages, reproductive rights, domestic violence, maternal leave, sexual harassment, domestic violence, the right to education, etc. Not all rebellions spillover on the streets. Every woman who acts according to her free will for the greater good in her daily routine is a rebel, leading her own revolution. She may be a little girl. She could be a woman in love, a wife, a mom or an expectant mother, a career woman or a loving grandmother. Here are fourteen powerful stories where these rebels take various challenges head-on and live their life on their own terms. The women in the stories make their mark in their own way, symbolizing a revolution against a cause, no matter how big or small. This book is dedicated to every woman who stands up for herself. She refuses to fit in and blend with the crowd. She dares to be different and break the rules. She is courageous, wise, kind and compassionate. She is a fighter and doesn’t give up on herself easily. She leads a rebellion against ignorance. She has a burning desire to live an extraordinary life.

Seventeen-year-old Ivy Blackbourne wants nothing more than to become a knight and help defend her home from southern raiders, but her father's law forbids it. King Magnus has his reasons for this law and will do anything to protect his family, but it might be too late. The war has spread to the kingdom of Godstone and Magnus is forced to send Ivy away for her protection but also to begin her training. Ivy soon meets a boy named Finn, whose past will links their fates together, and as their relationship grows so too does the danger. King Magnus has been betrayed. His wife is being targeted and his son is being hunted. Ivy soon finds herself fighting for her life trying to get back home, but home is no longer safe. There is one man behind it all, and he'll stop at nothing to get his revenge on the king who took everything from him.

He grew up to be an elegant, handsome and charming person and his journey abroad highlights his attributes, friendliness, career, aligned with his explorative ideals, romance and dreams in all of his endeavors. He was the only member of his family that wanted to get away from the poor life in India, and decided to get away to London, which leads to the second book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ronin's Mistress is a brilliant new twist on the fabled tale of the 47 Ronin, from Laura Joh Rowland--an author with "a painter's eye for the minutiae of court life [and] a politician's ear for intrigue." (The New York Times). Japan, 1703. On a snowy night, 47 warriors murder the man at the center of the scandal that turned them from samurai into masterless ronin two years before. Clearly this was an act of revenge--but why did they wait so long? And is there any reason they should not immediately be ordered to commit ritual suicide? Sano Ichiro, demoted from Chamberlain to his old post as Most Honorable Investigator of Events, Situations, and People, has mere days to solve the greatest mystery of samurai legend--while his own fortunes hang in the balance.
