DOWNLOAD EBOOKLEADER OF THE PACK Ben Tannen was the undisputed leader of his group of best friends, nicknamed "The Deck." He was the Ace, of course. Heidi Malone was the Joker, and the only female among them. All four men were half in love with her Ben maybe more than half . Still, there had always been a certain tension between the Golden Boy and Heidi-from-the-wrong-side-of-the-tracks. And when he'd offered her money for college tuition, she'd lashed out with her pride and a bicycle chain. Fifteen years later, Heidi still owed Ben an apology and he still held an IOU. He planned to collect and prove to her that they'd make much better lovers than fighters. "Rising star Alison Kent holds us spellbound with deeply passionate characters and scorching sensuality."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA “Farrago” is a “confused mixture,” an apt subtitle for this 1911 semi-fictional travelogue and love song to Hilaire Belloc’s home County of Sussex. It is full to bursting with humor, songs (often including scores), speeches, drawings, fables, digressions, poetry, and legends, often partially or wholly invented, but all in service of Belloc’s deep belief in “the character of enduring things.” During a period of five days in 1902, including All-Halloween, All-Hallows’ Day, and ending on the Day of the Dead, Belloc walks from the east end of the County of Sussex to the west, finally arriving at his boyhood home. “Four Men,” each an aspect of Belloc’s personality, travel together on this walk: Myself, Grizzlebeard, the Sailor, and the Poet. They tell tales, sermonize, versify, feast, and sing as they go, holding forth on subjects such as: St. Dunstan pulling the Devil by the nose; how all animals’ hides are covered in hair (and why Myself is glad that he is not); the Pelagian Heresy (as related in song); all the inns of the world and their ale (and how Alexander fought his way to Indus to seek a certain one); tales of each man’s first love (the Sailor has a bit of trouble with his); and finally ending in a fine piece of verse on “the way in which our land and we mix up together and are part of the same thing.” This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPublishing public domain and PLR books is a numbers racket to some degree. It will depend on the niche and the earlier recognition of that author and work. The quality on these vary intensely. Some of the more recent ones are better written and edited. Now they are coming with high-quality covers and source files to edit them fully. Like public domain, there are essentially limitless competition out there with all these copies. But also like public domain, you will see that mostly they have been poorly edited or poorly marketed and are really no competition at all. In East Asian tradition, an anthology was a recognised form of compilation of a given poetic form. In this model, which derives from Chinese tradition, the object of compiling an anthology was to preserve the best of a form, and cull the rest.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Four Just Men (1905) is a political thriller by Edgar Wallace. The book that launched Wallace’s career as one of England’s leading popular fiction writers, The Four Just Men was released in conjunction with a newspaper competition allowing readers to guess the truth behind the unsolved mystery at the end of the novel. Like many of Wallace’s stories and novels, The Four Just Men was adapted into a silent film in 1921 before being made into a popular television series in 1959. At a small café in the city of Cadiz, four men gather to discuss the affairs of the world. Together, this Englishman, Frenchman, Italian, and Spaniard are known as “The Four Just Men.” Using their power and influence as businessman and aristocrats, these unlikely vigilantes have become humanity’s only hope for justice, a unified front against corruption, abuse, and anarchy. As news of their brotherhood spreads, gaining them the attention of numerous international intelligence agencies, their list of targets dwindles with each successful move they make. Justifying their use of murder through a dedicated application of morality, “The Four Just Men” rid the world of sex traffickers, factory owners, politicians on the take, and countless others who seem always to threaten human life without facing the consequences. The first in a series of six novels, The Four Just Men is an absolute thrill ride from start to finish. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Edgar Wallace’s The Four Just Men is a classic political thriller reimagined for modern readers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Four Just Men is a detective thriller published in 1905 by the British writer Edgar Wallace. Edgar Wallace formed the idea of The Four Just Men — four wealthy gentleman vigilantes (including a European prince) who punish wrong-doers who are beyond the reach of the Law – while returning to England in 1905. Excerpt: "IF you leave the Plaza del Mina, go down the narrow street, where, from ten till four, the big flag of the United States Consulate hangs lazily; through the square on which the Hôtel de la France fronts, round by the Church of Our Lady, and along the clean, narrow thoroughfare that is the High Street of Cadiz, you will come to the Café of the Nations."
