When Anya has her fortune read by a soothsayer, she is excited to hear about her future with her betrothed, a handsome knight.

Book Description
Welcome back to the brash, brutal new world of the twenty-fifth century: where global politics isn’t just for planet Earth anymore; and where death is just a break in the action, thanks to the techno-miracle that can preserve human consciousness and download it into one new body after another. Cynical, quick-on-the-trigger Takeshi Kovacs, the ex-U.N. envoy turned private eye, has changed careers, and bodies, once more . . . trading sleuthing for soldiering as a warrior-for-hire, and helping a far-flung planet’s government put down a bloody revolution. But when it comes to taking sides, the only one Kovacs is ever really on is his own. So when a rogue pilot and a sleazy corporate fat cat offer him a lucrative role in a treacherous treasure hunt, he’s only too happy to go AWOL with a band of resurrected soldiers of fortune. All that stands between them and the ancient alien spacecraft they mean to salvage are a massacred city bathed in deadly radiation, unleashed nanotechnolgy with a million ways to kill, and whatever surprises the highly advanced Martian race may have in store. But armed with his genetically engineered instincts, and his trusty twin Kalashnikovs, Takeshi is ready to take on anything—and let the devil take whoever’s left behind.

The Broken Sword
Author: Poul Anderson
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1497694221
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
This acclaimed fantasy classic of men, elves, and gods is at once breathtakingly exciting and heartbreakingly tragic. Published the same year as The Fellowship of the Ring, Poul Anderson’s novel The Broken Sword draws on similar Scandinavian and Anglo-Saxon sources. In his greed for land and power, Orm the Strong slays the family of a Saxon witch—and for his sins, the Northman must pay with his newborn son. Stolen by elves and replaced by a changeling, Skafloc is raised to manhood unaware of his true heritage and treasured for his ability to handle the iron that the elven dare not touch. Meanwhile, the being who supplanted him as Orm’s son grows up angry and embittered by the humanity he has been denied. A pawn in a witch’s vengeance, the creature Valgard will never know love, and consumed by rage, he will commit a murderous act of unspeakable vileness. It is their destiny to finally meet on the field of battle—the man-elf and his dark twin, the monster—when the long-simmering war between elves and trolls finally erupts with a devastating fury. And only the mighty sword Tyrfing, broken by Thor and presented to Skafloc in infancy, can turn the tide in a terrible clashing of faerie folk that will ultimately determine the fate of the old gods. Along with such notables as Isaac Asimov and Ray Bradbury, multiple Hugo and Nebula Award winner Poul Anderson is considered one of the masters of speculative fiction. This edition contains the author’s original text.

Wild nights and dark pleasure. He’s also up to no good. Which means he’s not for her. She has her own objective to fulfill and he’ll only get in the way. He’s also promised to her sister. It should be easy for them both: just stay away. But running from temptation is hard. Avoiding trouble even harder—and sometimes it catches up to you, leaving you… breathless, begging, Broken.

Book Description
I thought I'd die in the dungeons. My father is a terrible man. He claimed a demon lived inside me and imprisoned me for months in his torture chamber. Then, one fateful day, he found himself on the bitter end of a curse, and he offered me in exchange for his freedom. I thought my life was over, but I was wrong. While trapped within the curse creator's ancient castle, phantoms begin speaking to me. They caress me with invisible hands, and proclaim I'm theirs. One is cold and possessive, another curious and calculating, and the third... well, he might be damaged beyond repair-just like me. At night, however, when the phantoms leave, terrifying beasts emerge. Their snarls and roars awaken something dark within me, and their pull is impossible to resist. I'm changing, becoming something greater than I ever thought I could be. When the past comes back to haunt me, and my future is compromised, I find myself facing an old enemy. This time, though, I won't submit. This time, I'll become the demon he always claimed I was-a broken beast. ***Broken Beasts of Beauty is a full-length, stand-alone, dark, PNR, RH fairytale retelling. Nothing inside these pages is appropriate for a children's story. Within this tale are scenes with detailed sex, naughty language, torture, violence, revenge, and much more. If such material bothers or offends you, please do not read this book.***
