Book Description
"I love this book so very much."—Robin LaFevers, New York Times bestselling author of the His Fair Assassin trilogy Romantic high fantasy from the bestselling author of Star Wars: Ahsoka and Exit, Pursued by a Bear. It's been a year since the mysterious godsgem cured Cadrium's king and ushered in what promised to be a new golden age. The heroes who brought home the gem are renowned in story and song, but for two fellows on the quest, peace and prosperity don't come easily. Apprentice Knight Kalanthe Ironheart wasn't meant for heroism so early in life, and while she has no intention of giving up the notoriety she's earned, reputation doesn't pay her bills. Kalanthe may be forced to betray not her kingdom or her friends, but her own heart as she seeks a stable future for herself and those she loves. Olsa Rhetsdaughter was never meant for heroism at all. Beggar and thief, she lived hand to mouth on the streets until fortune--or fate--pulled her into Kalanthe's orbit. And now she's reluctant to leave it. Even more alarmingly, her fame has made her profession difficult, and a choice between poverty and the noose isn't much of a choice at all. Both girls think their paths are laid out, but the godsgem isn't quite done with them and that new golden age isn't a sure thing yet. In a tale both sweepingly epic and intensely personal, Kalanthe and Olsa fight to maintain their newfound independence and to find their way back to each other.

Book Description
Afterward by Edith Wharton is an ironic ghost story about greed and retribution. The ghost comes for one of the main characters long after a business transgression where the character wronged another. Excerpt: "Oh, there is one, of course, but you'll never know it." The assertion laughingly flung out six months earlier in a bright June garden, came back to Mary Boyne with a sharp perception of its latent significance as she stood, in the December dusk, waiting for the lamps to be brought into the library. The words had been spoken by their friend Alida Stair, as they sat at tea on her lawn at Pangbourne, in reference to the very house of which the library in question was the central, the pivotal "feature."

Book Description
No less authority than Albert Bushnell Hart, the "Grand Old Man" of American historians, wrote the introduction to this marvelous 1912 classic. Not only was David Parker's life exciting and eventful, the man could write a memoir that holds the reader through every page. David B. Parker was only 18 years old when he enlisted in the Union cause during the American Civil War. Yet he rose quickly and found himself in the company of the greatest men of his day. Parker knew "Fighting Joe" Hooker well, General George Gordon Meade—whom he thought cold and unlikable—a little, and was fortunate as to command the high regard of General Ulysses S. Grant. This book is unique. Young Parker did his share of fighting in the Peninsular Campaign of 1862, and has recorded some striking and entertaining things about the soldiers in the trenches, but it was as a courier, marshal, and later mail postmaster that he rose to prominence.Throughout the war he developed a talent for cutting red tape. He took dispatches between Grant and Abraham Lincoln and was briefed by Grant about the Overland Campaign so that Parker could organize the smooth running of the mails during that important end-of-war campaign. In 1868, Grant appointed Parker U.S. Marshal for Virginia. He ensured seating the first African-American on a jury. He dealt with moonshiners who from 1865 to 1869 had had their own way and were sometimes defended by ex-soldiers. The tales of Parker’s experience with counterfeiters and other desperate characters would easily suit a writer of detective novels. He also relates some interesting details about his acquaintance with Frederick Douglass. Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
