Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The No-Drop Zone contains all the information necessary for new cyclists to gain the knowledge and skills to take them from buying their first bicycle to starting their first race. Cyclists learn how to handle the bike, perform minor maintenance, select clothing and accessories, join clubs, and find events. The book also covers every aspect of riding in a group, emphasizing such specific skills as how to avoid bumping into other riders when riding in close quarters and fixing a flat quickly enough to rejoin the group. Author Patrick Brady explores the particular pleasures that come from group riding, a unique experience at once social (talking with friends while riding), exciting (descending in a group), and exhilarating (finishing a long hill). Brady also details the enormous fitness benefits of riding in a group. The No-Drop Zone has all the knowledge a cyclist needs to move to that next level of skill.

Book excerpt: Ethan Blake is seventeen and desperate to escape from his dead-end life. When he sees someone B.A.S.E. jump from the top of his block of flats, it changes the way he sees the world for ever. Soon, Ethan is caught up in the adrenaline-fuelled world of skydiving. He's a natural, so it's no surprise when he's invited to join an elite skydive team, but is he signing up for more than just jumping out of planes? The team's involved in covert military operations - missions that require a special kind of guts, missions so secret even MI5 denies all knowledge.

SUBJECT: Jumpmaster Course Student Conduct, Graduation Requirements and Grading Criteria The purpose of this memorandum is to outline the requirements for a student to successfully complete the United States Army Jumpmaster course within the administrative point system and all graded exams. 1. Students attending the Jumpmaster Course must conduct themselves in an appropriate and disciplined manner, on-duty and off-duty. Students who violate provisions of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) will be quickly disciplined, and may be permanently dropped from training with subsequent assignment as a non-graduate. You will receive a briefing from your NCOIC on your conduct while assigned to the Jumpmaster Course. Any violation of the items in the briefing may result in being dropped from the course. 2. Students must meet the following requirements on all exams in order to graduate from the US Army Jumpmaster Course: a. Nomenclature Exam. Student will be presented with 25 items of equipment chosen on a random basis. Student must score a minimum of 70% to receive a “GO”. b. Actions During Decent Exam (pre-jump). Student will be given 30 minutes in which to recite Actions During Decent in its entirety. Student must score a minimum of 70% to receive a “GO”. c. Written Exam. Student will be given one hour to answer 100 questions, to include True/False, Multiple Choice, and Fill-in the Blank. Student must score a minimum of 70% to receive a “GO”. In addition to the tested material, students may lose 16 points on the exam for not following the instructions given during the test brief. d. JMPI Exam. Student will have five minutes in which to JMPI three jumpers, one wearing combat equipment, two hollywood jumpers. Using proper sequence, and proper nomenclature while identifying all deficiencies. Student must score a minimum of 70% to receive a “GO”. e. Practical Work inside the Aircraft (PWAC) Exam. Students will be graded on hand and arm signals, and door check procedures, in an Air Force fixed wing aircraft while in flight. Student must score a minimum of 70% to receive a “GO”. In addition to the tested material, students may lose points on the exam for improper rigging of equipment, or failure to follow instructions. 3. Students will be given one retest for each exam (Nomenclature, Actions During Decent, Written, or PWAC) where they fail to meet the 70% standard. Students must score a minimum of 70% on any retest in order to receive a “GO.” Passing scores on a retest will count towards the student’s grade point average as 70%, regardless of the number of correct or incorrect answers on the exam. Students that fail to achieve the 70% standard on a retest will be dropped from the course. 4. Students who maintain an 80% or higher grade on the Nomenclature, Actions During Decent, PWAC and Written exams will be considered “Re-Entry Qualified.” Re-Entry Qualified students will receive two additional attempts to pass the JMPI test. Students that fail to maintain re-entry status will still receive three attempts on the JMPI test. 5. The use of administrative points will assist the cadre in enforcing standards throughout the course. Students will begin the course with 100 administrative points and my loose re-entry status if accrued administrative points drop below 80%.

Book excerpt: Get in fast. Rescue the VIP. Get out. Sever Squad is outnumbered, outgunned, and deep in enemy territory, and every second spent on Dynas ticks them closer to a fiery end. When a strange rescue signal comes in, Sever Squad gets the call. They're tough, reckless, and one carries a giant hammer. Except this mission's different: the signal's calling for help, but the planet's deserted. Oh, and Sever's home ship can't wait for them. If they want to get off-world with their rescue, they'll have to find their own way to fly. For Aurora and the rest of Sever, though, the mission means serious cash. A chance to get out of the grind, find something that doesn't require getting lit up by lasers every other day. So the choice is obvious: load up, and move out. Drop Zone kicks off the Sever Squad series, a fast-paced sci-fi action blend that takes a battle-hardened crew to strange worlds, trigger-happy enemies, and fair-weather friends. If you're looking for your next adventure, strap on your power armor and join Sever in the drop shuttle. It's going to be a bumpy ride.

Book excerpt: Paige Vickers needs a new life, so she's relieved when she's given an assignment that takes her away from her stressful position as a psychiatric nurse with the CIA and puts her in a job as administrative assistant for Vanessa Johnson, an instructor for undercover operatives at the CIA's training facility. At the same time, Damian Schmitt has been transferred to become a part of the Saint Squad--an elite group of Navy SEALs. However, on his first training mission with the teacm, he is almost killed, and the teacm suspects that the nearly fatal exercise was no accident. Then tensions accelerate when the rest of the squad is deployed on a secret mission--only to come up missing. When the Saint Squad's disappearance endangers Paige's boss, it is up to Paige and Damian to discover what has happened by going undercover to Maracaibo, Venezuela, the city of Damian's childhood. The shocking twists and turns keep all the members of the team guessing as they push to find out who is responsible for the attacks on the tightly knit Saint Squad. -- page [4] of cover
