Book excerpt: Bobbie Holderman’s life is in the dumps. He got his girlfriend pregnant, arranged for an abortion, and then she died as a result of being butchered. He unwittingly has a close encounter with a transvestite, then is caught stealing. Given a choice of jail or serving a term in the Army, he chooses the Army. It’s not long before he is court-martialed and given a dishonorable discharge. He falls into a relationship with a junkie, and overdoses on hard rock cocaine. In an out of body experience, he is standing over his body while doctors work to save him, when he is approached by a man who offers to save him. The man offers him fame and fortune in exchange for his soul. The alternative: face “The Judges” who will punish him harshly for killing himself. Bobbie takes the deal, which is sealed by wearing and emerald ring. This ring now controls his destiny. It’s not until his life is again in danger that he discovers that he has been tricked. Now he must find a way to go back and undo the deal with the demon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Normandy landings of 6 June 1944, across five sectors of the French coast - Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword - constituted the largest amphibious invasion in history. This study analyses in depth the preparations and implementation of the D-Day landing on Gold Beach by XXX Corps. Historians have tended to dismiss the landing on Gold Beach as straightforward but the evidence points to a different reality. Armour supported the infantry landing and prior bombing was intended to weaken German defences; however, the bulk of the bombing landed too far inland, and many craft foundered in difficult conditions at sea. It was the tenacity of the assault units and the flexibility of the follow up units which enabled the Gold landing to secure the right flank of the British Army in Normandy. Using detailed primary evidence from The National Archives and the Imperial War Museum, this volume provides a substantial assessment of the background to the landing on Gold, and analyses the events of D-Day in the wider context of the Normandy Campaign.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you wipe out in life, who helps you get back up again? After a gnarly fall in competition, a DUI, and moving in with her mom dashed her hopes for a spot in this year's X Games, 16-year-old skateboarder Summer O'Neill is left with one last shot at redemption. But her fresh start is even harder than getting back on the half pipe: hours of community service, a party girl reputation she can't shake, and life with a mother she hardly knows leave Summer scrambling to keep her world stable. The very last thing Summer is looking for is a boyfriend, at least until she meets Sebastian Vega. Steady, unassuming, and self-assured, he's everything she's not. Before long, she's sneaking out for midnight sandcastle building excursions and trading in her art class for private photography lessons with Bastian. But Summer's past won't stay behind her and Bastian has problems of his own – including a bleeding disorder that seeps into every aspect his life. While he pushes against the limitations of his hemophilia, she is bound by the rules of her probation. When the ramifications of her past crimes collide with his frustration, it may be more than their budding relationship can bear. With the next X Games qualifier rapidly approaching, Summer has to own up to her mistakes if she wants to soar again. If she can't, she'll lose more than her second chance. She'll lose her future-in skating, and with Bastian.
