A Fragile Kingdom  

About A Fragile Kingdom

1968. On the outskirts of a war torn Vietnamese hamlet, English college dropout Robert Gaze, takes a photograph that will change his life and define his newly forged career as a combat photographer. The subject, a young Marine, has his head in his hands as the body of a young Vietnamese boy lies next to him. Although he is not to know it, his life will be indelibly altered by the photograph.
30 years later, the photographer’s search for the past takes us from 1960s England to the heady atmosphere of late 60s Saigon and finally, back to the idealism and barbarity of the Vietnam War.
This affecting novel examines a conflict that changed the way that war was reported, wars fought, and history recorded. An ambitious and moving account of one man’s journey into his past.

About First Citizen by Rick Bosworth

IS THIS THE END OF THE GREAT AMERICAN EXPERIMENT?

It’s January 2021. A cataclysmic domestic terrorism attack has obliterated the federal government, and FBI agent George Moore and General Alexander Marius Taylor step into the void to prevent chaos. But both men have a dark secret that propels them on a collision course with history, and each other.

In the wake of the attack, General Taylor declares martial law, and a captivated public embraces him as their “American Caesar”. Moore is handpicked to investigate the case, which appears to be a slam dunk. But he uncovers startling information that pits him against his bosses and threatens to shatter his FBI career. Moore then learns of his link to a top-secret government project that forces him to question everything about himself and his country. What Moore discovers makes him the “Indispensable Man” destined to lead the opposition force against General Taylor, who has no intentions of surrendering power. This final epic confrontation will determine the fate of the United States.

His answers became the basis for his first novel, First Citizen.

Rick lives with his wife on the shore of Lake Superior in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. When he is not writing, Rick enjoys hiking in the woods, good bourbon, and slapping at his acoustic guitar.

The Blind Blogger’s NYC Adventures By Maxwell Ivey, The Blind Blogger  

About The Blind Blogger’s NYC Adventures By Maxwell Ivey, The Blind Blogger

“People who know Max can’t help but be inspired by him.”

This is the true story of Maxwell Ivey and his adventures in New York City. It contains many life lessons and explains how you can make your dreams come true, using the keys to success Max regularly uses to attain his own goals and make his dreams a reality.

Max is a blind entrepreneur, blogger, author, and podcaster. He won Amtrak’s 2016 prestigious Writers in Residency Award, which included a trip to any city in the USA.
He chose to travel to NYC… alone! He chronicled each of his adventures, which include being on a TV show, going ice-skating in Rockefeller Center, meeting the Blogger from Paradise in person… and more!

Max displays a remarkable amount of courage and willingness to chase his dreams, despite the obstacles in his way. He is a great role model who teaches others how they can work towards their dreams and ultimately reach them… no matter what.

Using creative narration, accompanying photos, and funny stories, Max also makes the readers laugh with his witticisms about being blind… as in the case of sitting backwards on the train, because the scenery is the same regardless of which way he is facing. (Lol.)
This is Max’s first book in his travel series. Read it. Enjoy it. Learn from it so you can become armed with the secrets to achieving your own dreams, too!

Made In America by Lyra Lee Rose  

Made In America by Lyra Lee Rose

“If I knew then, what I know now, would I change any of it?
No. Not the pace of events and not the way of fate either. Something I didn’t really believe in, which seemed to play a hand in my destiny.
I couldn’t imagine not feeling his hands upon me. Not seeing that look of hunger, of possession, of need in his eyes every time he was near me or in the same room as me. His firm expressions, the power he had over others, hell, over me. That body, those scars, the tattoos, his hidden identity, unknown to a town that would never be the same, they just didn’t know it. Not to me, or those he brought in, squeezed into a community of unknown civilians.
I couldn’t imagine life without him. The palm of his hand pressed up against my breast, his warm, firm lips demanding, pulling, drawing so much sensuality from within me, it makes me feel like some sensual goddess with much more experience with men than I actually have. No. nothing would be the same without him. Nothing.
So who is obsessed now? Who is the one living out a fantasy? Who has become part of a world I never knew existed, but now reaped the benefits of? (Hmmm.) America. A land of opportunity, a means to success if you have the guts, the determination, and the fight within you to succeed. That’s me. That’s him, and all the others in this world, this hidden life others couldn’t even fantasize about having.
Made in America. I’d do it all over again. I’d do it, for him.“

The Accidental Archmage: Book One – Ragnarok Rising (The Accidental Archmage Series 1)  

About The Accidental Archmage: Book One – Ragnarok Rising (The Accidental Archmage Series 1)

Updated 2019 Edition. Rearranged and modified to follow the audiobook version.

An epic fantasy on another world in the classic tradition. Magic, adventure, mayhem, monsters, and twisted schemes.

What if you fell through a crack in reality? Like those people disappearing in plain sight you have read about.

What if you find yourself in a strangely familiar world? A world full of Earth’s mythological beings, lost civilizations, and people from its primitive and brutal past? Where magical energy still exists. Where gods play games among themselves, with the fate of mortal men as pawns. A land where a sword is deadlier than a five-inch thick contract drawn by a hotshot lawyer. Would you survive?

That’s Tyler West. Alone, lost and bewildered, the three moons in the sky made it clear he wasn’t on Earth anymore. It is not a game. It’s real. And there’s no coffee, pizza, fries, or his favorite show on HBO.

A novel of approximately 132,000 words.

Get This Erotica Book From Amazon.


Author Bio:
I write erotica. Sharing the inner thoughts and emotions of characters is the ultimate voyeurism.

I am a big believer in plot and character development.

I want the characters to be as real as possible. Character motivations drive the events and sexual activities.

Sex scenes are detailed and graphic. I want to always give a perfect picture of exactly what is happening and why and how and how the characters feel physically and emotionally.

I have two degrees and am dedicated to providing the highest quality erotica.

If you’re curious about my chosen name, I can tell you how it came about. I was once an inanimate small Russian Orthodox church in Serafimovich in Volgograd Oblast. I was brought to life during a 3:00AM “witching hour” satanic rite conducted by a small cult that had never done much before and not much since. I am it’s lone claim to fame.

Although I promptly refused the cultist’s demands that I storm through the town leaving a path of destruction (my refusal seemed to surprise and upset them) I knew I would not be welcome in the world of mankind. Who wants a big (even a small church is big) moving church wondering around asking questions and raising even more questions?

I left for the broad open plains in the surrounding areas. I usually stayed still during the day and wondered about at night assuaging my curiosities so as to cause the least alarm among the residents.

The cultists did pursue me with great insistence and continued demands for me to be violent. They claimed I owed it to them for utilizing the souls of deceased Nazis from nearby Stalingrad in order to bring me to life.

Despite the politeness of my refusals they eventually, the fourth night, took to throwing Molotov cocktails at me. Ever been set on fire? I’ll share this with you: not fun. I do not recommend it.

Having newly mobile drain spouts and gutters and ready access to streams saved my hide. My shingles, too.

This went on night after night and, let me tell you, it got old quick. Then… things got worse. The Angels showed up. The avenging kind. Revenge for what? Well, as they claim, I guess I am some kind of “abomination before God”. I really don’t get that “before God” part. Is it OK to be an abomination behind him?

So, unlike the Molotov cocktail throwing cultists, these Avenging Angels utilized lightning bolts. But, just like flaming Molotov cocktails, those lightning bolts got old quick. Real quick.

So, how am I still here to tell you about all this and how can I even type it? I will tell you.

I’m really quite a lucky church even within bouts of bad luck. Just two months before the cultists animated me the priest of my church needed to replace the lightning rod on me. A rusty contraption poorly assembled and a hazard to the churchgoing folk.

A normal average-sized lightning rod could never have absorbed those Avenging Angel lightning bolts. However, my priest was a proud priest and he wanted me to be taller than that other Orthodox Church on the Western edge of Serafimovich. By doggedly yelling at the congregation seven Sunday’s in a row he raised enough money to have the biggest lightning rod in all of Volgograd Oblast installed on me, thus bringing my height up an additional seventeen feet.

So, I mostly absorbed those lightning bolts. Those Avenging Angels were very upset and I did feel bad for them but, hey, what choice, right?

Some lightning bolts did get through when shot from near enough and at certain angles. Hurt bad! Note: Pain is one of the biggest drawbacks to being brought to life. I think we can all agree on that.

One benefit of Avenging Angel’s lightning is poor aim. By accident this led to a sharp decrease in the population of cultists. The downside of Avenging Angels is that they don’t need to sleep and never give up. They don’t get bored. They don’t lose focus. They just keep coming.

I didn’t sleep for twenty-seven days and the whole time was so painful.
Even my giant lightning rod was beginning to melt….

The end was coming for me. A big conflagration. Then ashes. Then Hell, right? They weren’t going to destroy me and then take me up to Heaven were they? Elitists, that’s what they are!

After twenty-seven days of this unfair lightning bolt abuse I was, by then, in Syria a bit North of the Sea of Galilee. I didn’t know where I was at the time, of course.

I plunged into a river to escape or limit the bolts. I was so tired I thought I’d float and just sleep a while even if they were bolting me incessantly. I was that tired!

I even thought if I was lucky I wouldn’t even wake up at all….

I did fall asleep.

I did wake up.

I was on the shore on the West side of the river. I… wasn’t a church any more. I was… a Human? Still not completely sure if I am. Or what happened. Or where the Avenging Angels went. Or if they’re coming back after reloading on lightning bolts.

Humans need names. Why? People always ask. Like, usually right away. Turned out that the river I plunged into was the Jordan River. And, you know, I used to be a church. So, I tell people to call me Jordan Church.

I’m sort of in hiding now, but I’m really not sure if you can hide from Avenging Angels or if I still need to. Cultists would be more of a problem now though. I assume Molotov cocktails feel just terrible on human skin!

I write erotica because, as a human, I now have bills to pay. I used to be a building and now I have to pay to live in one! Oh, how I have fallen.

I chose erotica because it fascinates me. Hey, I’m only human!
