Book Description
Thirty long and grueling years have passed since humanity started rebuilding the world after the outbreak of an unknown virus that reanimates the dead into unintelligent cannibalistic creatures. During the thirty-year time frame, mankind has bounced back from the brink of extinction and started reforming the world in their image. The undead, known as betas, were still a common occurrence but were far less prevalent than before. This outcome was all thanks to the synthesis of a cure to stop further infections that was freely administered to the populace. Many thought this would finally be the start of things returning to how they were before the beta apocalypse. Many were incorrect. The multitude of societies and power centers that arose wanted to retain and grow their own power, and very few worked together. Now is an age where these pseudo-nations either make their own way and rise to greatness or perish in the new world. In the city-state of New Bethlehem lives Jayden Thrattis, a twenty-two-year-old male who, along with his friends, lives his life as best as he can until, one day, war finds its way to the walls of their settlement. Now Jayden must help defend his home from all enemies, whether they be humans from an imperialistic kingdom or from himself and the person he chooses to become as he juggles self-sacrifice and his own self-worth.

Book Description
It was more than an incident. It was a deadly assault across the 38th parallel. It was the Korean War. In the fear and frenzy of battle, those who had served with heroism before were called again by America to man the trenches and sandbag bunkers. From Pusan to the Yalu, they drove forward with commands too new and tanks too old: brothers in war, bonded together in battle as they had never been in peace...

Great Sea Stories
Author: Joseph Lewis French
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Sailing
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
Men have written of the sea since 2500 BC, when an unknown author set down on papyrus his account of a struggle with a sea-serpent--the first sea-story on record. Modern sea-stories begin properly with the chronicles of the early navigators, and it is actually "Robinson Crusoe" that turns the great sea voyage into fiction, the foundation of the sea-tale as literary art. The literature of the sea grew slowly but surely, and it is hoped that this compilation offers indisputable evidence that the prose tradition is sustained, and that readers new to it will find the theme marvelously interesting.
