Book excerpt: A stunning personal narrative of best intentions gone awry, Michael Maren, at one time an aid worker and journalist in Somalia, writes of the failure of international charities. Michael Maren spent years in Africa, first as an aid worker, later as a journalist, where he witnessed at a harrowing series of wars, famines, and natural disasters. In this book, he claims that charities, such as CARE and Save the Children, are less concerned with relief than we think.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: River Thirteen years have passed since the war started, bombs fell, and the central states became a thing of the past. When the war ended, the government erected a wall to divide the surviving states from the destroyed ones. I never expected to leave my town, but unlike those who volunteered to go, I wasn’t given a choice. With a dim knowledge of my strange abilities, the soldiers came for me. They took me beyond the wall, where I learned the truth is far more terrifying than I imagined. Alone, with humans and demons eager to see what I can do, I find myself irresistibly drawn to the one man I should avoid most—a man who isn’t even really a man. Kobal I’ve spent my entire life with one mission… reclaim my throne from Lucifer and fix what the angels tore apart when they cast him from Heaven. Not even when the humans tore open the gates, and unleashed Hell on Earth, did I waver from my goal. I’ve never been closer to my throne, yet I find myself risking everything because I can’t stay away from her… the woman who might be the key to destroying Lucifer. *** Due to sexual content, violence, and language, this book is recommended for readers 18+ years of age.*** Keywords: Contemporary fantasy fiction secret heritage dystopian novels strong heroine angels and demons romance read and listen for less dystopian love story mystical creatures series apocalyptic fiction strong male lead folklore fiction mythical creatures enemies to lovers post apocalyptic romance books mythical creatures steamy romance supernatural romance twists strong heroine psychic power romance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 1950s to the 1980s, the New Zealand government took more than 100,000 children from experiences of strife, neglect, poverty or family violence and placed them under state care in residential facilities. In homes like Epuni and Kingslea, Kohitere and Allendale, the state took over as parent. The state failed. Within institutions, children faced abysmal conditions, limited education and social isolation. They endured physical, sexual and psychological violence, as well as secure cells, knock-out sedatives and electro-convulsive therapy. This book tells the story of 105 New Zealanders who experienced this mass institutionalisation. Informed by thousands of pages of Child Welfare accounts, letters, health reports, legal statements as well as interviews, Stanley tells the children’s story: growing up in homes characterised by violence and neglect; removal into the State’s ‘care’ network; daily life in the institutions; violence and punishment; and the legacy of this treatment for victims today. The state masqueraded as a good parent, but its violence and negligence made things worse for children. This book is a moving account of the experiences of those placed into state care, and a powerful call for redress and change. It was over and over, it wasn’t just one night, it was many drunken nights, you know the smell of alcohol and stuff like that. I was often beaten . . . I got so used to the beatings that I never used to cry any more . . . I hid under the cot, and every time I knew they were coming I’d have to come out and just be prepared for anything – Ed He said to me ‘You’re going somewhere’. He said it with glee. ‘You’re going somewhere where they know how to treat people like you’. It was like he knew what the place [Hokio] was like and what was in store for me and it gave him a great deal of pleasure. I find that really cruel – Ray . . . I remember looking out the window and said ‘There’s police out there, what’s going on?’ Yeah and they’d come to pick me up, to put me in the girls’ home . . . I was just in shock . . . they wanted to take me. ‘What have I done? . . . The police just took me down to the station...and then the social worker took me from there to Bollard and then I was chucked in the cells. – Nanette

Book excerpt: Brazil’s BR-116 motorway has been described as the worst road in the world. According to the Brazilian government, a child is sold for sex every ten miles. Thousands of young girls, some as young as nine, are forced to sell their bodies to truck drivers to bring money home to their families. Businessmen and politicians organize child prostitution rackets. The girls refer to the 2,700-mile motorway as the ‘Highway to Hell’. Their childhoods are stolen there, and many are trapped in unimaginable abuse and violence. This book documents this untold tragedy in the form of a journey up the motorway, as Matt meet the girls and hears their stories, as well as encounters with the truck drivers, pimps, brothel owners, traffickers – and the brave individuals trying to make a difference. It is also a journey in faith as Matt grapples with what his Christian faith has to say about it and discovers how God wants him to respond.

Book excerpt: In this definitive, up-to-the-minute account of the Hells Angels in Canada, two veteran journalists investigate why the recent imprisonment of feared biker leader, Maurice “Mom” Boucher, is too little, too late. By the spring of 2002, Boucher was safely in prison but the Hells Angels had grown to 37 chapters with close to 600 members across the country. They had taken over the drug trade and continued their rapid expansion into Ontario with a recent, high-profile enlistment -- or patchover -- of 168 members from other gangs. In Winnipeg, gang warfare turned ugly as the Hells muscled out the competition and firebombed a policeman’s home. In Vancouver, they secured a stranglehold on smuggling in the all-important West Coast port. The Road to Hell is the story of how the Hells have taken over the Canadian crime scene: how politicians dithered while overburdened prosecutors burned out and lost major cases; how police brass squabbled while a handful of dedicated cops worked years to amass their evidence; how a few citizens stood up the bikers and paid for that bravery with their lives. Murder plots, drug deals, money laundering and assassinations are brought to life through never-before-revealed police files, wiretaps and surveillance tapes. In gripping prose, the authors tell all about Boucher’s war on the justice system; how he finally lost in Quebec, thanks in part to Danny Kane, a reluctant biker turned informer; but how across Canada the Hells have succeeded in building a national crime empire. The RCMP and then the police in Montreal would run Danny Kane as one of the most successful -- and most secretive -- agents ever to infiltrate organized crime. Kane would climb all the way to the top: from a lowly hangaround to a trusted confidante of the Quebec Nomads, the elite chapter led by the top Hells Angels lieutenants of Maurice “Mom” Boucher. And through his entire six-year-career as a spy, few people -- even inside the police -- would ever know about his dangerous double life. -- from The Road to Hell

Book excerpt: The Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne Division had just finished the battle for "the bridge too far", and, as Christmas 1944 approached, they were settling in for some hard-earned R&R. Then Hitler ordered a massive Nazi counterattack through the Ardennes Forest. The Screaming Eagles were rushed to Bastogne, a small Belgian crossroads where seven roads met and where the lightly armed and under-supplied division became the "cork in the bottle" of the Nazi onslaught. Burgett's stirring memoir (he was 19) recounts how epic courage bought the time needed for Patton's Third Army to redeploy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people today are wanting to know, "Are we living in the end times?" What will happen before the antichrist comes into power? Will America be a key player in the end times? In this book, I start the first chapter with what I believe will soon be coming, the chip being implanted in humans. I realize the mark of the beast will not be given until the antichrist comes into power. Many believe it will be the chip. I discuss in chapter 2 why I believe it will not be the chip. Our currency as we know it today will give way to a one-world currency, and I discuss this in two chapters. The New World Order has been discussed for many years, and I want to understand where it started and where it stands now. The last two chapters deal with a real hell and a real heaven. Though we do not know everything about either of these, we know enough that we will make an eternal choice to spend forever in one or the other. How and what you do the rest of your life will determine your eternal destination. I genuinely believe this book will help you understand the end times and eternity. We all are on the road to hell, but know heaven is only one step away.
