Conqueror of the Sun – Book 3 – Reign of Terror tells the story of Shawn Arc and his IRF Empire on its track to conquer the whole world. Using everything from Arc’s manipulative charm on past lovers to using a nuclear-scorched earth campaign, the resisting nations bend, quake, and tremble under the weight of the IRF war machine’s blitzkrieg. Will the Fighting Axis of countries be able to hold onto the last pieces of the Earth? Will Shawn Arc’s betrayals, deceptions, and body count finally come back to haunt him? Or is Arc destined to become the Conqueror of the Sun? The Conqueror of the Sun series is a seven-book saga that has been 30 years in the making. The story is about a man named Shawn Arc and his desire for power and control beyond anything achieved in human history so far. The tale takes place in an alternate history that starts in the 1990s and extends far, far into the future. Shawn Arc is willing to do anything to accomplish his goals, whether it be by deception, conspiracy, war, betrayal, or on the backs of millions of dead. At the same time, the story shows that Shawn Arc is also about love, romance, and intimate relationships. Can this man be both monster and human? Or is he merely a larger than normal mirror to reflect the essence of the human condition?

Savage announced his engagement to Sydney Conner, the illegitimate princess from Naessa, who is pregnant with our late Prince Reginald’s heir. Savage was reportedly sent to bribe the ravishing royal, only to find himself dodging bullets and fleeing the country with her. There was no denying the white-hot passion between the pulchritudinous pair as they treated reporters to an ardent display of affection. With Sydney’s life still endangered and tensions mounting, one wonders if the engagement is simply the greatest spin of Savage’s career—or if the confirmed bachelor has truly met his match!

In 1936, the British monarchy faced the greatest threats to its survival in the modern era -- the crisis of abdication and the menace of Nazism. The fate of the country rested in the hands of George V's sorely unequipped sons: a stammering King George VI, terrified that the world might discover he was unfit to rule a dull-witted Prince Henry, who wanted only a quiet life in the army the too-glamorous Prince George, the Duke of Kent -- a reformed hedonist who found new purpose in the RAF and would become the first royal to die in a mysterious plane crash the Duke of Windsor, formerly King Edward VIII, deemed a Nazi-sympathizer and traitor to his own country -- a man who had given it all up for love Princes at War is a riveting portrait of these four very different men miscast by fate, one of whom had to save the monarchy at a moment when kings and princes from across Europe were washing up on England's shores as the old order was overturned. Scandal and conspiracy swirled around the palace and its courtiers, among them dangerous cousins from across Europe's royal families, gold-digging American socialite Wallis Simpson, and the King's Lord Steward, upon whose estate Hitler's deputy Rudolf Hess parachuted (seemingly by coincidence) as London burned under the Luftwaffe's tireless raids. Deborah Cadbury draws on new research, personal accounts from the royal archives, and other never-before-revealed sources to create a dazzling sequel to The King's Speech and tell the true and thrilling drama of Great Britain at war and of a staggering transformation for its monarchy.

A military history detailing the key role two US Army special forces commanders and their infantry divisions played in during the second world war. Generals during World War II usually stayed to the rear, but not Matthew Ridgway and Maxwell Taylor. During D-Day and the Normandy campaign, these commanders of the 82nd “All-American” and the 101st “Screaming Eagle” Airborne Divisions refused to remain behind the lines and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with their paratroopers in the thick of combat. Jumping into Normandy during the early hours of D-Day, Ridgway and Taylor fought on the ground for six weeks of combat that cost the airborne divisions more than forty percent casualties. The Paratrooper Generals is the first book to explore in depth the significant role these two division commanders played on D-Day, describing the extraordinary courage and leadership they demonstrated throughout the most important American campaign of World War II.
