Book Description
Ice Prince. Prince Jamil of Calluvia dislikes that moniker, but he has to admit it's not wrong. He is responsible and proper, and it's probably accurate to say that he isn't good at emotions. After being widowed, Jamil's life has revolved around his duties as a crown prince and little else. But one night it changes. One night, Jamil meets a man at the royal stables, a man who is the opposite of proper, a man with eyes as black as sin. Rohan di'Lehr is everything Jamil should despise. He's a rude, lowborn criminal. He's terrible for Jamil's self-control. He makes Jamil behave like a wanton man, not the crown prince. They have nothing in common. They have no future together. He still can't stay away. A story of forbidden attraction and love that defies all odds.

Persian Fire
Author: Tom Holland
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0307386988
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
A "fresh...thrilling" (The Guardian) account of the Graeco-Persian Wars. In the fifth century B.C., a global superpower was determined to bring truth and order to what it regarded as two terrorist states. The superpower was Persia, incomparably rich in ambition, gold, and men. The terrorist states were Athens and Sparta, eccentric cities in a poor and mountainous backwater: Greece. The story of how their citizens took on the Great King of Persia, and thereby saved not only themselves but Western civilization as well, is as heart-stopping and fateful as any episode in history. Tom Holland’s brilliant study of these critical Persian Wars skillfully examines a conflict of critical importance to both ancient and modern history.
