In the isolated town of Pine Ridge, historian Michael Harris stumbles upon an ancient, cursed book in the attic of his grandfather’s abandoned mansion. What begins as a simple curiosity soon spirals into a nightmarish obsession. The book, bound in blackened leather and inscribed with sinister markings, holds the key to unimaginable horrors — and a dark entity eager to break free. As Michael delves deeper into the book's forbidden secrets, he awakens Ar’gul, an ancient demon bound within its pages. Vivid nightmares plague his sleep, shadows move in the corners of his vision, and the boundary between reality and madness begins to blur. Every word he reads pulls him further into Ar’gul’s sinister world, where power and destruction await. But with each passing day, the cost of survival grows ever steeper. With the help of his friend, archaeologist Dr. Laura Martin, Michael must confront the terrifying truth of the book's origins before it consumes him completely — or worse, releases the demon into the world. Gripping, atmospheric, and filled with chilling suspense, The Forbidden Tome will haunt your thoughts long after the final page. Will you dare to open the book and face what lurks within?

Mummies, grave-robbing ghouls, hopping vampires, and evil monks beset a young archaeologist, in this fast-paced Indiana Jones-style adventure Saqqara, Egypt, 1888, and in the booby-trapped tomb of an ancient sorcerer, Rom, a young Egyptologist, makes the discovery of a lifetime: five coffins and an eerie, oversized sarcophagus. But the expedition seems cursed, for after unearthing the mummies, all but Rom die horribly. He faithfully returns to America with his disturbing cargo, continuing by train to Los Angeles, home of his reclusive sponsor. When the train is hijacked by murderous banditos in the Arizona desert, who steal the mummies and flee over the border, Rom – with his benefactor’s rebellious daughter, an orphaned Chinese busboy, and a cold-blooded gunslinger – must ride into Mexico to bring the malevolent mummies back. If only mummies were their biggest problem… File Under: Fantasy

The Hunters trilogy consists of the first three books in the award-winning Hunters series: THE HUNTERS, THE FORBIDDEN TOMB, and THE PRISONER'S GOLD. Every book in the series has hit #1 on Amazon. THE HUNTERS has been optioned for a major motion picture, and THE PRISONER'S GOLD won the ITW Thriller Award for Book of the Year. The first book in the series (THE HUNTERS) features a diverse cast of characters. Financed by a mysterious philanthropist, this elite team -- a soldier (Jack Cobb), an historian (Jasmine Park), a computer whiz (Hector Garcia), a weapons expert (Josh McNutt), and a thief (Sarah Ellis) -- was asked to locate a Romanian train filled with riches that disappeared in Russia during World War I. The collection is now valued at over $3.5 billion. Despite several attempts to find it, its location has remained a mystery…until now. The second book was called THE FORBIDDEN TOMB, and it was released in 2014. Tasked with finding the legendary tomb of Alexander the Great and the extraordinary riches that were rumored to be buried with him, the Hunters encountered hostile forces that would do anything to stop them. Before long, the treasure hunt became a deadly rescue mission with hundreds dead and a city in ruins. As the death toll continued to mount, the team was forced to rise to the challenge to find the ultimate prize. The third book in the series was called THE PRISONER'S GOLD, and it was released in 2015. At the end of the 13th century, Chinese Emperor Kublai Khan gave an Italian merchant unfettered access to his kingdom. The traveler was Marco Polo, and his journey would become legendary. Aided by a special passport that protected him throughout the land, Polo amassed unbelievable wealth and hid it before his return to Italy. Guided by firsthand accounts of Polo's travels, the Hunters quickly discovered there was a criminal empire willing to do anything to stop them from taking the riches from Chinese soil. Praise for Chris Kuzneski and THE HUNTERS series: James Patterson, #1 national bestselling author—“Chris Kuzneski’s writing has the same raw power as the early Stephen King.” Clive Cussler, #1 national bestselling author—“Chris Kuzneski writes as forcefully as his tough characters act.” Nelson DeMille, #1 national bestselling author—“Chris Kuzneski is a remarkable writer, who completely understands what makes for a good story: action, sex, suspense, humor, and great characters.” Vince Flynn, #1 national bestselling author—“Chris Kuzneski is a master in the making.” James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author—“Chris Kuzneski writes with an energy that is contagious! Action, suspense, mystery, and a biting thread of humor.... What more can you ask from a novel?” Steve Berry, #1 international bestselling author—“Kuzneski does it again with another terrific tale, filled with action and suspense, bringing the unimaginable to life. Definitely my kind of story!” Scott Mariani, #1 international bestselling author—“THE HUNTERS kicks off a brilliant new series from Chris Kuzneski. Adventure, history, mystery, and more—everything you’d want in a thriller!” The Daily Mail (UK)—“THE HUNTERS is taut and fierce—with a cast of agreeably idiosyncratic characters. It feels like the draft of a movie, and it could just be Kuzneski’s breakthrough novel. It deserves to be.” Herald Sun (Australia)—“THE HUNTERS is Mission: Impossible on steroids. The first in a new series, Kuzneski brings together a super-expert crew of renegades to track down a lost treasure, sent into hiding in 1916 and never seen again. . . It’s all about the action, which never stops. Half the fun is imagining the all-star cast for the movie that was clearly in Kuzneski’s mind. Final verdict: Thrill Ride.”

A visit to Ankara, Turkey, would include a trip to Anitkabir, the burial site of Turkey’s founder and first president, Ataturk. The massive stone building houses numerous sculptures and a large ceremonial plaza and is surrounded by an elaborate park. Ataturk is far from the only former leader to be remembered by such decorative means. Since the beginning of human history, societies have built tombs and mausoleums to house the remains of people who changed the course of history. These grave sites exist not only as sites of memory for different cultures, but also serve the political needs of subsequent regimes. Tracing the development of the political burial places since the Bronze Age tumuli, Tombs of the Great Leaders explores what attracts pilgrimages to these sites, how politics play out in these locations, how they convey meaning and safeguard a person’s immortality, and how history is commemorated through these structures. Looking in depth at tombs built in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Gwendolyn Leick surveys the history of these modern leaders, their deaths, and the creation of the mausoleums. She traverses the globe, investigating the memorial sites of Communist leaders such as Lenin, Mao Zedong, Ho Chi Minh, and Kim Il-Sung; Fascist rulers Franco and Mussolini; and founding fathers of new nations, including Ziaur Rahman in Dhaka, Mohammed Ali Jinnah in Karachi, and Sun Yat-sen in Nanjing. Leick describes the experience of visiting the sites, the responses they elicit, and the context in which they are viewed today. Combining history, architecture, and travel writing, Tombs of the Great Leaders is a revealing study of the self-perpetuation of politicians, despots, and dictators alike.
