Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The seventh book in Diana Gabaldon’s acclaimed Outlander saga, the basis for the Starz original series. “All you’ve come to expect from Gabaldon . . . adventure, history, romance, fantasy.”—The Arizona Republic Jamie Fraser, former Jacobite and reluctant rebel, is already certain of three things about the American rebellion: The Americans will win, fighting on the side of victory is no guarantee of survival, and he’d rather die than have to face his illegitimate son—a young lieutenant in the British army—across the barrel of a gun. Claire Randall knows that the Americans will win, too, but not what the ultimate price may be. That price won’t include Jamie’s life or his happiness, though—not if she has anything to say about it. Meanwhile, in the relative safety of the twentieth century, Jamie and Claire’s daughter, Brianna, and her husband, Roger MacKenzie, have resettled in a historic Scottish home where, across a chasm of two centuries, the unfolding drama of Brianna’s parents’ story comes to life through Claire’s letters. The fragile pages reveal Claire’s love for battle-scarred Jamie Fraser and their flight from North Carolina to the high seas, where they encounter privateers and ocean battles—as Brianna and Roger search for clues not only to Claire’s fate but to their own. Because the future of the MacKenzie family in the Highlands is mysteriously, irrevocably, and intimately entwined with life and death in war-torn colonial America.

Book Description
Both memoir and essay, Copse 125 is an engaging and philosophical meditation on the nature of modern warfare in the era of the First World War, through a sustained and unified account of one aspect and episode, the battle at Rossignol Wood in France. Written in the early 1920s, several years after his classic Storm of Steel, Copse 125 also contains the essence of Jünger's thoughts on nationalism and the forging of a people in the furnace of heroic struggle.

Book Description
Della has the Talent. She just doesn’t know it yet. Della Marshal doesn’t believe in magic. A top archaeology student at Oxford, she’s more interested in history, facts, and building a respectable academic career. All that changes when she discovers her professor is a murderer who performs rituals with other robed creeps under moonlight and sacrifices innocent people to gain access to ancient, evil magic. Lucas Lancaster, a handsome and mysterious loner, insists on helping Della. He’s from an old wizarding family. After dark forces killed his parents, he vowed to stay away from magic. But magic chose him, and apparently Della too, even though she thinks all this is nonsense. Despite their differences, Della and Lucas must work together to stop the cult’s activation of ley lines and their ultimate goal of apartheid and racial killings… The King Stone can be read as a standalone novel.
