Emergency is a collection of true stories about events where disaster seems imminent. Yet each situation is concluded without loss of life thanks to the skill of the pilots and their crews, whose bravery and resourcefulness have earned them well-deserved commendations. Written by a British Airways First Officer, Stanley Stewart, who has spoken at first hand with the pilots and crews involved in all the incidents recorded here, the book offers a unique insight into what really happened: not the passengers eye-view, which in many cases is already documented, but the view from the flight deck of the aircraft itself.

These tales from the author's life experiences are mostly light-hearted but they all true. They start with Nellie the dinghy who eventually became the long, red, sleek speedboat named The Phantom. Some of the tales also involve the caravan that the author's father bought when Borry was thirteen years old. The family spent almost every weekend from March to October at St. Lawrence Bay in the wilds and farmlands of Essex, by the River Blackwater with recurring battles against screaming winkles, the bog of eternal stench and the evil mud sucking monster. Fun and frolics ensued for over forty-eight years.

Some warriors are drawn to the thrill of combat and find it the defining moment of their lives. Others fall victim to fear, exhaustion, impaired reasoning and despair. This book synthesizes the wartime experiences of American soldiers, from the doughboys of World War I to the grunts of Vietnam. Focusing on both soldiers and marines, it draws on histories and memoirs, oral histories, psychological and sociological studies and even fiction to show that their experiences remain fundamentally the same regardless of the enemy, terrain, training or weaponry.

A SYMPHONY RISES The gears of revolution turn once more. Striking from the slums of Holy Gothica, the Powder Kegs have stolen a set of battleplans from the Imperium, offering themselves as pawns in a far greater scheme. The rebel leader, Goro Ludwig, follows orders from the Entente of Free Peoples, a rival power bent on toppling the Imperium’s tyrannical rule. Meanwhile, Victor Roland languishes in a life devoid of purpose. It has been a month since the Dollmaker’s death. Addled by grief and guilt, he wastes his days drinking at the Sunset Pagoda, mulling over the implications of taking a human life, as the Imperium mobilizes for war. Only the initiative of his friends stir him to a cause he partly cares about. Joining the Powder Kegs, Victor agrees to deliver the data plans to the Entente. If he fails, the free world will be reduced to ash and brimstone. For the Imperium’s secret weapon is nothing short of evil he’s long fought—the very daemons of the Inferno…. This is the fourth book of the Geist series. Join Victor in his race against time, as he trudges across wastelands and war zones, in a wider world on the brink of war.
