Once there was a great empire that dwelt between the
Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers: the Empire of the Sumerians. One of
the greatest cities of Sumer was Ur, near modern-day Basra, Iraq. Sumer
flourished in the Fertile Crescent some four millennia ago. The Kings
of Sumer ruled for more than a thousand years, and the people between
the rivers developed a lively, intelligent culture that echoes down
through the ages. Among the Sumerian pantheon of gods and goddesses was
Inanna, Goddess of Love – who became the prototype for the later Ishtar
and Isis, Artemis and Venus.
Seven Dreams of Inanna is a timeless love story
in the grand tradition. It is the tale of Klori, daughter of King Mesan,
and her lover, Kesh, heir to the usurped throne of Lagash. It is a tale of
intrigue and danger, of heroism and courage, of adversity and redemption – a
story that unwinds amid the sun baked brick buildings and colorful
tapestries of ancient Ur, where ziggurats rise to meet the cloudless sky and
sharp daggers are forever poised against the unwary. It is a story that
takes place at the dawn of recorded history; and yet, one that still
resonates today. For it is a story that is replayed each generation, and
one that will continue for so long as love endures

"Sandscrapers" were the men who crewed the little known and unheralded
LSMs (Landing Ships - Medium) in World War II. These were the ships that
delivered men and materiel to the beaches under fire throughout the South
Pacific island hopping campaign. The Sandscrapers chronicles the lives of
the brave crewmen who repeatedly sailed their boxlike craft under the guns
of Japanese shore batteries, and celebrates the sacrifices of those who
gave "their last full measure of devotion" to the cause of freedom.

The River Wolf - Historical
Fiction - Alternate History
It
is the golden age of the second Napoleonic era. In 1844, paddle and
steam replace wind and sail and Napoleon Bonaparte is President of the
United Republics of South America. Wars for independence and
unification, wars against Spain, Portugal, and the republics themselves,
are at an end. Internal conflicts, economic strife, and border
disputes were removing themselves from the battlefields and settling in
the more contentious and convoluted halls of government. After
twenty-three years, the continent and even the world has finally
reconciled itself to Napoleon’s rule – Napoleon’s South America.
Eligus Bronsan, a sea officer and mercenary who has known nothing but war,
must make a place in a world that has no use for him. Under the auspices
of the Continental Survey, Le Bureau Examen Continental, Bronsan and his
sailors are employed on a mission of exploration that turns into a deadly quest
from the jungles of the Amazon, to the British Falklands, through the Straights
of Magellan, and finally north to Concepción, Napoleon’s seat of power.

World.

Joseph,
the eleventh son of Jacob and first son of Rachel, is sold into slavery by
his brothers for 20 pieces of silver because they are jealous of the
attention their father showers on his “son of my old age.” In Egypt, Joseph
is sold into the service of Potiphar, an Egyptian official and placed in
charge of Potiphar's household. There he proves his worth in all his duties.
However, Potiphar's wife has amorous designs on their new slave. When Joseph
refuses her advances, she falsely accuses him of rape and Joseph is thrown
into prison.
While in prison, Joseph develops a reputation for
interpreting the dreams of the other inmates, one of whom is a high official
of the Pharaoh’s government. When, years later, the Pharaoh has a dream of
his own in which he sees "Seven lean kine devouring seven fat kine on the
Nile, and of seven withered ears devouring seven full, ripe ears," the
official remembers Joseph's skill and recommends him to the Pharaoh.
Joseph is brought before Pharaoh and tells him that the
dream foretells seven years of plenty, to be followed by seven years of
famine. Impressed with his interpretation, the Pharaoh appoints Joseph
viceroy and thus begins the reign of the Ruler of All Egypt.

John
T. Moriarty's One Square Mile of Mayhem is the first work of
fiction in a series of four books about the adventures of Tim Mahony, a
teenage Irish boy facing the dilemma of growing up in a racially torn
Catholic parish in Cleveland, Ohio. The book is 97% based on true
events that took place in the 1950s.
Tim Mahony's parents
migrated from County Kerry, Ireland to Glenville, one of the neighborhoods
on the east side of Cleveland, where they bought a delicatessen and worked
hard to make a new life for themselves. Over time, their little shop
became a hangout for an undisciplined gang of white teenagers who were
then fighting three other gangs: African Americans from the nearby
neighborhood of Glenville, other Caucasians from East Cleveland, and
Italian Americans from Murray Hill. Chaos and mayhem ruled the daily
lives of these young teenagers. The violent sociological and racial
metamorphosis that plagued the East Side came to a head when a gang member
was murdered at the Annual Parish Bazaar, the one event designed to bring
the warring factions together. The death threatened to
transform the ongoing strife into open warfare. Could some degree of
racial harmony be restored despite the tragic death?

Legend
has it that the city of Rome was founded in 753 B.C. by twin brothers,
Romulus and Remus. Over the next eight centuries, the city on the seven
hills grew into the greatest empire the world had ever known. It
reached the peak of its power during the reign of Caesar Augustus,
adopted son of Julius Caesar. The Pax Romana lasted for two hundred
years, until the death of Emperor Marcus Aurelius.
By the Third Century A.D., the vigor of Rome was largely spent. The
mighty Roman legions had met their match in the impenetrable German
forest, the arid Libyan desert, and the hostile mountains east of
Constantinople. The people of Rome had tired of the mantle of Empire,
their administrators had become corrupt, and their emperors
short-lived.
Into this world was born Gaius Petronius Merva during the reign of
Emperor Elagabalus in 220 A.D. The scion of a prosperous family in
Antioch, Roman Syria, the young Gaius proved a disappointment to his
father, who exiled him into the service of Rome as a soldier.
