The long-lived Samadeya-Qayin, ally of the Almighty and check against Pelik-Qayin, who is something more than an evil twin, clash once more. Amy Rea, Samadeya's adopted daughter and First Lord of the Admiralty, was shot down aboard her flagship Victory at Trafalgar. But two powerful lookalike women emerge from the smoke and blood--Amy's flag officer Joane O'Donnell and the mysterious Amethyst Meathe. Both play a vital role in Thomas Rourke's battle against the French despot at Mount Sainte Jean, near Waterloo. Joane takes on prominent military role in now-allied new France. But Amethyst still has battles to fight--first with lead enemy nation Spain, then with Ireland's own King Frederick and his would-be replacements back home. She succeeds her mentor as "The Mother"--High Queen of Low Tara, becomes queen maker for several nations, and continues Amy Rea's battle against God's enemies. Who are she and Joane, really, and will Amethyst and the band of brothers and sisters she inherited from Amy Rea live to see a new, better, and peaceful Ireland emerge from the ashes of war?

I never should've taken that shortcut... One terrible night, sixteen-year-old Melanie Johnson is tackled to the ground by a masked man intent on killing her- or worse. Her savior, a large black dog with soulful eyes, vanishes as quickly as he appears… just before she faints. Her long-time crush finds her, making a vow to keep her safe. He’s affectionate, supportive and protective...the stuff dreams are made of. But he is something more than he seems. Something untamed. Forceful. Wild. When the threatening letters start arriving, Melanie has a choice—hide in the shadows like she’s always done, or take control of the situation and find her attacker. And put an end to her fear. She’s always just wanted a normal life, but after that night, nothing will ever be normal again. Recommended for lovers of shifters and romance and fans of Stephenie Meyer and P.C. Cast. **This is an upper YA Paranormal Romance intended for teens and adults, 16+.

This book purports to examine in depth and detail the wide spectrum of human relationships depicted by Dattani, a theme that has not been examined consistently and comprehensively by the critics so far. In order to arrive at a balanced appreciation of his mind and art, an analysis of relationships within and outside the family, including those between husband and wife, between different generations, siblings, transgendered and the miscellaneous ones have been examined using mainly socio-psychological approach. Through a series of miscellaneous relationships like those between peers, friends, boss and subordinates, communities and even strangers, Dattani enlarges the range of his subject, revealing a vast variety of human ties which one forges and lives through in one’s life. His incisive and extensive treatment of the human relationships shows not only his insightful grasp of changing social realities but also of human nature, which deepens and enhances the appeal of his theatre, underlining the humanistic values of acceptance of diversity and difference, equality and freedom for a happy and meaningful social and individual life.
