A Plane Crash... A Hidden Valley... An Ancient Prophecy... A Cataclysmic Scheme... Mariah, Aari, Kody, Jag and Tegan have been lifelong friends. Surviving the crash of their small plane in northern Canada, the five awaken to find themselves in Dema-Ki, an uncharted valley inhabited by a mysterious people. Nursed back to health, the teenagers are soon cast into a life-altering adventure when a strange affliction wreaks havoc in this remote sanctuary. The Elders of the village believe that the five newcomers hold the key to the salvation of not only Dema-Ki, but that of all humanity as foretold in their prophecy. Skeptical at first, the five eventually grow to accept the possibilities of the prophecy after experiencing a series of baffling events. Unbeknownst to them, a renegade group of youths, zealously opposed to the initiation of the 'outsiders', soon begin their maneuvers to rid the village of the newcomers. As the dark forces around them accelerate, the five friends are compelled to discover faith in themselves and in the powers ascribed to them by the ancient prophecy. If they survive the perils in this valley, can they then garner the courage and conviction needed to face an ominous cloud gathering in the world outside?

Book Description
Bridging the hatred of centuries did not come easy for Freyrik Farr and Ayden Vaska. As prince of a war-torn human province, Freyrik could ill afford to fall for an enemy. And Ayden, an elven warrior with three hundred years of bitterness in his heart, wanted no part of love. Yet they came together despite themselves and the wills of their peoples, joining hearts and minds to fight a race of Dark Beasts threatening the extinction of mankind. Yet the Dark Beast threat pales beside the dangers of a summons to the human High Court, home of the Aegis Exalted and the harshest test yet of Ayden's and Freyrik's fledgling love. When the Aegis strips Ayden of his magic, Freyrik is forced to choose between his love for elf, Aegis, and king, all the while seeking the one uncertain path that might save his doomed race. Time is fast running out for mankind, and only by making peace amongst themselves and with their ancient elven enemies can they end the Dark war — and undo the tragedy that's plagued humans, elves, and Dark Beasts alike for the last three hundred years.

Book Description
This is a fascinating insight into China’s strategic abilities and ambitions, probing the real depths of its plans for the twenty-first century. China's Rising Sea Power explores similarities between China’s strategic outlook today and that of earlier continental powers whose submarine fleets challenged dominant maritime powers for regional hegemony: Germany in two World Wars and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. Using insights from classical naval strategic theory, Peter Howarth examines Beijing’s strategic logic in making tactical submarines the keystone of China’s naval force structure. He also investigates the influence of Soviet naval strategy and ancient Chinese military thought on the PLA Navy’s strategic culture, contending that China’s increasingly capable submarine fleet could play a key role in Beijing’s use of force to resolve the Taiwan issue. This book will be of great interest to all students and scholars of security and strategic studies, Asian politics, geopolitics and military (naval) strategy.

Book Description
On every street, in every city, the Paragons are hunted. Drones and mercenary teams break apart families and take captive anyone with a hint of power. Whispers in the dark hint at their destination: a grim prison where dire experiments seek to extract the secrets in the Paragon’s genes. Those left free scurry from one hideout to another, trying to stay one step ahead of annihilation. It’s a race with only one sure end, unless Celice and the remaining heroes can find the key to stopping the slaughter. That key? The Factory, a vast center producing Paragon-killing machines in the hills north of Los Angeles. Fiercely protected, it is, nonetheless, the only shot worth taking. But Celice cannot do it alone. Allies must be found, even among former enemies. Perhaps especially so, for as the future comes into focus, it’s clear the end will not be what many hoped. As unlikely bonds are forged and a desperate plan is put into action, a battle to preserve the possibility of freedom begins. Who wins, who dies, and who is tossed aside is a question only answered with blood, strength, and hope. Dive into Liberator’s Light, the finale of The Hero’s Code series and experience a whirlwind adventure from the first page to the last.
