DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn Airplane Reading, Christopher Schaberg and Mark Yakich bring together a range of essays about air travel. Discerning and full of wonder, this prismatic collection features perspectives from a variety of writers, airline workers, and everyday travelers. At turns irreverent, philosophical, and earnest, each essay is a veritable journey in and of itself. And together, they illuminate the at once strange and ordinary world of flight.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWelcome to AIRPORT READING… …with a difference! Four young women, stuck in an airport terminal, courtesy of an ash cloud; strangers, each with a secret and stories to tell. Lucy, 32, is off to the Far East with a small, concealed package; her life has gone off track. She's stuck in a rut, lacking in confidence and worried about keeping her promise to someone in Thailand. Then there's PF, a stunning but puzzling American, Samra the exotic pole dancer and Ann, a fresh faced but naïve Irish girl who's not had much experience of life – or has she? Together they form a bond, first telling stories to pass the time, but the tales begin to take on a different turn as Lucy meets the lovely Fergus, who wants to paint her in oils. Yes, really. And what about the gorgeous Matende? Finally the ash clouds lift; finally each reveals her motive for going to a far-flung destination and it's shock and awe all round with the last revelation. Sexy and serious by turns, Airport Reading will keep you guessing until the very last page…

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCaleb Marcus is a Peacemaker, a roving lawman tasked with maintaining the peace and bringing control to magic users on the frontier. A Peacemaker isn’t supposed to take a life—but sometimes, it’s kill or be killed... After a war injury left him half-scoured of his power, Caleb and his jackalope familiar have been shipped out West, keeping them out of sight and out of the way of more useful agents. And while life in the wild isn’t exactly Caleb’s cup of tea, he can’t deny that being amongst folk who aren’t as powerful as he is, even in his poor shape, is a bit of a relief. But Hope isn’t like the other small towns he’s visited. The children are being mysteriously robbed of their magical capabilities. There’s something strange and dark about the local land baron who runs the school. Cheyenne tribes are raiding the outlying homesteads with increasing frequency and strange earthquakes keep shaking the very ground Hope stands on. Something’s gone very wrong in the Wild West, and it’s up to Caleb to figure out what’s awry before he ends up at the end of the noose—or something far worse...
