DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Through a small number of characters who with their private passions are caught up in the maelstrom of history the author evokes a decadent European society as it sinks into vice, sterility and irresponsibility and becomes engulfed in the catastrophe of war. From the time of the February riots in the Paris, the novel takes the reader through the turmoil of French political and social life before the Munich crisis, through the tragedy and heroism of the French people under the defeat and the occupation and beyond, into the peace that follows. Love is the central theme, and it is played with several variations, one or two of which are the strangest to be found in literature since the writings of the Marquis de Sade. War, politics, friendship, loyalty, love of the land, heroism are among the subsidiary themes which the author develops in his own original way. There are passages of unforgettable visualization--the bombing of Malta, the execution of the notary, Pierre Girardin, by the Germans, conspiracies in North Africa, the Prince of Orminy's suicide, the death of Adolph Hitler, Nostradamus' prophecy of victory and the end of the war. Filled with the raciness, the iconoclasm, the shocking unconventionally which this artist's strange genius seems always to manifest itself, it is rigorously constructed, and the dramatic interest is maintained at a high pitch."--Book jacket.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA trick of magic, a twist of fate. As the orphaned nephew of the king, trusted companion to his cousin, and second heir to the throne of Skala, Prince Tobin’s future is clear. But not as clear as the spring in which a hill witch shows him his true face--and his secret destiny.... Now Tobin carries a burden he cannot share with even his closest friend, Ki, his squire. He is to rule--not as he is but as he was born: a woman. Given the shape of a boy by dark magic, Tobin is the last hope of the people of Illior--those who desperately seek a return to the old ways, when Skala was ruled by a line of warrior queens. They still believe that only a woman can lift the war, famine, and pestilence that have run rampant through the land since the king usurped his half sister’s throne. It is these outlaw wizards and witches who protect Tobin--and it is for them that Tobin must accept his fate. With the unsuspecting yet fiercely loyal Ki at his side, Tobin must turn traitor against the only blood ties he has left. He must lift the masks of Skala’s rulers to show their true colors--before he can reveal the power of the woman within himself.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHazel's tenure as Gatekeeper between the Summer Court and the human realm has barely begun and she's already stopped one attempted coup. But with no monarch in control of the Summer Court of Faerie, full-blown anarchy threatens to break out. Everyone wants a piece of the Gatekeeper -- in a literal sense, if they find out the explosive secret the Erlking left her with after his death. Worse, a notorious fae criminal has escaped jail, and in the process, kidnapped the only person who knows the identity of the next ruler of Summer. Hazel's first task as Gatekeeper is to find both of them, and save the heir of Summer before the Courts fall into chaos. She has help in the form of her old mentor, Darrow, except he's here on a mission from his own Queen that puts Hazel in even more danger. As she closes in on the enemy, it becomes harder and harder for Hazel to keep her loved ones safe. Torn between promises old and new, Hazel is going to have to betray someone… and her decision might well lead to the ruin of everything she's ever known.
