Of Land and Spirits by Alan Thrush
About Of Land and Spirits by Alan Thrush
March 1980 – a time of turmoil as white rule gives way to nationalism in the war-torn rebel British colony of Rhodesia. In the pre-dawn gloom, army units are poised to attack assembled guerrilla forces. Results of internationally supervised elections are seeping through: an overwhelming vote for Robert Mugabe. In camps across the country, guerrillas stand to their weapons, waiting for the napalm to come crashing and burning into hut, trench and bunker. Waiting for the soldiers, pouring down from the sky. This is the story of the five years leading to the birth of Zimbabwe. Of Andrew Scott and others of the Rhodesian Army as they fight a war they cannot win. Of a rural population won over by Jason Mavunha and his guerrilla section who contest the ancestral land. Nowhere has the futility of war been better portrayed. There is bravery, cowardice, comradeship, loss. THIS BOOK WILL BE DISCOUNTED ON MAY 17th and MAY 18th.

Spices & Herbs for Beginners: Keys You Need to Easily Unlock Your Creative Success in the Kitchen by Ashley Vale
About Spices & Herbs for Beginners: Keys You Need to Easily Unlock Your Creative Success in the Kitchen by Ashley Vale
Cooking Up Delicious Food is Easier Than You Think.
Most of us are familiar with at least a few spices and herbs but have never taken time to learn about their full potential. As a result, we lose countless opportunities to turn an ordinary dish into an unforgettable one.
With so many spices and herbs available to us, why not take advantage of what they have to offer? Just a little understanding of these amazing natural ingredients will go a long way. And, you don’t even have to completely change the meals that you love to cook. I can think of a first-hand example from years ago. I love baked or roasted sweet potatoes, even with very little added since they pack so much flavor naturally. I tried a simple roasted sweet potato recipe that included some garlic, crushed red pepper, and thyme, and was blown away by the results. The sweet and spicy combination along with the amazing flavor of thyme (a new spice to me at that point) was incredible.
It was so easy to create, and it completely transformed an already delicious side dish. It also led me to other recipes where thyme was a star ingredient, because I was so impressed with the flavor it delivered. Using knowledge gained from this book, you’ll discover how to add layers and depths of flavor to the foods you already love to eat, just like the example I gave. The result doesn’t have to be completely new to be different and to be better.
Beyond that, understanding more about spices and herbs will naturally spark some curiosity to try something you haven’t tried before. Most of us have some international cuisine favorites and assume that we could never come close to the taste we get from our favorite authentic restaurants. Often, the secret lies in that game changing spice or herb that we never took the time to purchase and experiment with.
You really can become a more skilled, knowledgeable, and successful home cook with a multi-cuisine repertoire. This book will help you unlock this untapped potential.
Here’s a Taste of What You’ll Learn…
-Detailed descriptions of over 50 key spices and herbs and the international cuisines linked to each one
-How to cook with Spices and Herbs
-Spices and herbs that complement various vegetables and meats
-How to create a great marinade
-How to substitute for spices and herbs you do not have
-Popular international spice blend recipes
-And more!
Download today and taste the results tomorrow. I really believe you will find this book valuable and a great reference for years to come.

About Raiders of the Rockies (Stonecroft Saga Book 5)
AUTHOR OF THE BEST-SELLING BUCKSKIN CHRONICLES SERIES TAKES US ON AN EPIC JOURNEY IN BOOK FIVE OF THE STONECROFT SAGA.
By any measure, they would be considered old-timers in the mountains of the uncharted territory. Land that had been known as French Louisiana and Spanish Colonial Louisiana, was largely unexplored. The two old-timers were young men that had spent the last two years in that uncharted territory and had taken women from the Shoshone people as their brides. But their long-held dream and goal was to discover and explore the vast lands of the western wilderness and they set out to do just that.
But when renegade Coureur des bois of the Hudson’s Bay Company and trappers of the Northwest company decide to abandon the fur companies and seek their fortune by raiding the native villages, the two young friends and their women stand in their way.
The life and death struggle will bathe the wilderness in the blood of both raiders and explorers, and the screams of the tortured will echo through the canyons of the wilds.

Escape to Osprey Cove by Luisa Marietta Gold
Escape to Osprey Cove by Luisa Marietta Gold
What Doug finds in the secret compartment of his new red Corvette will forever change his life. It will also change Catherine’s. Doug and Catherine come from two different worlds. Catherine’s world is one of privilege and wealth. Doug grew up dirt poor and full of envy of others who had the things that he wanted but could not have. His goal was to one day have all the things he coveted. Their worlds collide when Catherine, VP of a large New York City marketing firm, hires Doug. As soon as Doug learns of Catherine’s wealth, he sees Catherine as his ticket to all the things he covets. After a whirlwind courtship, they are married.
Poor boy meets rich girl should have resulted in happily ever after — not exactly. Doug quickly learns he also covets independence. Events begin to unfold in each of their lives. For Doug, it is his mysterious discovery in the secret compartment of the Corvette. For Catherine, it is a business meeting with Alex Droxell at the Osprey Cove Lodge. When Catherine enters the beautiful and serene lodge, it’s as though she is entering another place and time. The lodge is an escape from the nightmare she is living back home.
Authors Note: The Osprey Cove Lodge series is uniquely written, spanning seven geographic locations from the scenic Canadian region of the Rideau lakes to the beautiful shores of the Caribbean. An interesting web of mystery develops as the characters’ lives intertwine. The setting for The Osprey Cove Lodge series was born from my love of the beauty of this region in Canada. The description of the lodge is so beautiful and inviting that you will want to pack your bags and head there. The series is written in a continuing fashion; please be sure to read the books in the order written.

The Boys of the Breach
Easton Keller and Breck Everett wanted nothing more than to serve their country. But when budget cuts cause them to be ‘prematurely retired’ from the Special Forces, these two warriors find themselves embarking on a new adventure. They’ve been hired to provide security for scientists working at a facility that explores the multiverse, opening breaches into other universes to see what’s out there and what they can learn. Given the infinite span of the multiverse, there are endless discoveries out their waiting for mankind to come and find them. But with every possible eventuality existing in one parallel universe or another, they’re bound to run into danger…lots of danger. That’s where the Easton and Breck come in. Leading a guard company of other former military and police veterans, they take on everything the multiverse can throw at them: Pissed-off sentient dinosaurs, alien critters who feed off body-horror, prehistoric bears with a grudge, interdimensional corsair slavers, wild west madmen bent on refighting the civil war, genius scientists who completely lack common sense, parallel versions of themselves who cheat at cards…even ex-wives they may or may not still be hung up on. Their job is to face them all and bring the egg-heads home safe, and they’re among the few who might actually be able to do it. The multiverse may be a dangerous place, but these are dangerous men…

Author Bio:
Unfortunately, a few years ago Paul went through a very difficult time in his life. His stress levels grew to become intolerable. He hardly slept, he was experiencing panic attacks and even lost the ability to drive his car. His recovery included reading many books on stress, but none of them really helped that much.
Finally, out of desperation, he devised his own technique to combat stress once and for all. It was so effective, he wanted to share it with others so they too could rid themselves of this unnecessary, debilitating state. The result was his book, How to Conquer Anxiety, Worry, Fear and Stress.
Paul went on to use the same effective system in his next two books. How to Master Your Confidence and Your Courage, and, How to Master Your Happiness and Enjoyment.
Long before this Paul had a love of helping and teaching people. This started when he became a ski instructor. He taught in Switzerland, Italy and Scotland. Next he taught English to Italians in the Alps and opened his own private school using his first book, Welcome to English, as the textbook for the pupils.
During this time he got interested in self-development and has since spent tens of thousands of pounds and many hundreds of hours enjoying delving into this fascinating area. He bought Brian Tracy lunch and has attended Tony Robbins courses in Hawaii, Miami and London. He subsequently became a helper on Tony Robbins courses, assisting the participants. Many times he got to dance on stage with Tony in front of several thousand crazy Tony fans. What fun!
Now the successful author of the Mastery series, these books were born out of Paul’s own desire to become masterful himself. He now shares this effective method with others. Readers are happily achieving mastery themselves, with the help of these books.
Paul lives in Exeter, UK, with his lovely wife Kelly.
Manifesto to Myself by Kristofer Mencák
About Manifesto to Myself by Kristofer Mencák
Are you ready to change your life?
Do you love Mondays? I do, now. But I didn’t always. Most people don’t like Mondays. Why? We all know why. They have to work. And on Friday they come alive again.
I feel very happy where I am right now, with what I have achieved so far. But I also feel I have so much more I want to do. So many ideas and projects I want to realize. I have spent far too long thinking, not doing. Words, but no deeds. Dreams, but no action. It is time to change that.
This book is about doing what you love, realizing the dreams you have in life, making small changes that over time lead to big changes. I wrote it because I believe many people need it. I know I need it! And it has already changed me, for the better. It is my proof of concept – what is in it works.
This is also a book to help change anything you want to change in life – stop smoking, start exercising, learning more languages – anything. It tells you what you need to know to create that change. Because the tools and the principles for all change are the same. This is my Manifesto to Myself. It is meant for people like me, who might think and dream but don’t yet do, for the people who didn’t start quite yet. It’s for the people who want a better life but maybe need some help and some inspiration, and maybe a kick in the ass to get going! Do you recognize yourself in some of what you just read?
If you want to improve your life, then then this book is for you too. Let’s go make that change!
The book currently has a very low ebook price (I set it to $0.99 and Amazon set the final price), and a $12.99 paperback price, but it is worth it! =)

Hieroglyphs – The Celestial Conspiracies
About Hieroglyphs – The Celestial Conspiracies
“Do you believe in our gods?
They grow us like cattle. They use us for their wars.”
Tensions were already high between the Egyptian gods and the Angels. They shared the same territory, their humans already at odds. The other clans, among them Demons and Greek gods, watched from the sides, anticipating the worst.
But then Anubis had to betray his people and give their secrets to an Angel. Something about a child who will grow to save the Hebrews from Egypt. Something about how that child must not be allowed to live, and if it meant getting rid of an entire generation of Hebrew children, so be it.
The king of Egypt is the only one who can start, or stop, such a massacre.
To reach the king, you can go through his sister. Young, naive, powerless, Princess Soromeh is the perfect tool for their plans.
This was not her story. But they made it her story.
A historical fantasy novel, where mythology and the Bible clash in an epic retelling of Exodus.

Author Bio:
Heather Quinto is a Pascua Yaqui Native, and she resides in Fresno, California. She has a BA in Creative Writing/English with a minor in Marketing from Southern New Hampshire University. She is a self-published author of the paranormal/fantasy novel, Inhuman, and a spiritual/romance short story titled In Love and Death. Recently, she published a horror novel with TruRealm Media titled The Doctor’s Estate. Currently, she is seeking representation for her unpublished novel, Eleutheria, which is an adult allegorical novel on today’s society that has universal truths deeply rooted within its themes.
Heather always had a strong urge to write and create imaginative stories ever since she could pick up a pencil. She started off by drawing picture books when she was four before transitioning to writing short stories when she was eight years old. Heather’s main inspiration behind writing is to be able to leave the greatest impact on whomever picks up one of her books by influencing a more positive and spiritual outlook on life. She strives to create fresh and original stories that grasps a reader’s attention, and hooks them with her strong and compassionate characters. Heather brings in unique storylines that no one has ever read before, and this is what caters to her originality. Her writing uses humor to teach self-confidence by encouraging her readers to laugh at themselves every once in a while. She writes of relatable hardships that help her readers feel less alone, and makes them feel more accepted.
Although, Heather’s current target audience are teens, she doesn’t stick to one given genre or age group. Her genre varies from book to book. She is currently working on a new science fiction novel, and has a mystery/romance novel sitting in her documents waiting to be edited. Heather’s ultimate goal is to be a major impact on the world for the better while teaching the morals and values passed down in her tribe. She hopes that her books challenge others to think both philosophically and spiritually like her tribal elders push her to do. She also strives to eventually make a comfortable living off of being a full time writer.
Give Me The Weekend
What do I look like, a baby machine?
I swear all my family wants from me is kids. Or at least my mother does.
But I’m the black sheep of the family. The one that left for bigger and better things.
No farm for me. I’m a self-made billionaire bad boy now.
Real estate is the game and making money is my thing.
All is well in my bachelor-like world until I rent a cottage on my property to a beautiful grade-school counselor.
Sweet. Curvy. Smart as hell.
This woman shouldn’t be out of my league, but it feels like she most certainly is.
Good thing she falls for me too. I need a fake girlfriend to take back home, and I’m hoping she’ll be up for the ruse.
Which she is not. Go figure.
Things don’t always work out the way I plan, especially when she’s hiding something from me. A baby. One I didn’t think I wanted until it was inside of her.
She’s walking away and I’m begging. I don’t need forever to win her back.
Just give me the weekend.

The Art of an Unpredictable Life by Sophie Twohig
About The Art of an Unpredictable Life by Sophie Twohig
“Be that flourishing light amongst the typical negatives, and constantly challenge other’s conceptions, for you’ll likely teach them a lot about life.”Life is inherently unpredictable, yet we are consumed by the notion that we must somehow control it. We strive to fulfill some great purpose, based entirely on societal conceptions of correctness. “The Art of an Unpredictable Life” is a collection of poetry that challenges the idea of perfectibility by considering the inherent fallacy of the human association to positives and negatives. Sometimes pain and suffering become our greatest motivator to achieving a life that we’re proud of, yet these are things that are always looked down upon. In turn, thinking that there is a correct way of living life will never allow for progression. Sometimes our greatest moments and memories occur unpredictably, and most often, they are entirely imperfect in nature.
