The Legend Of The Secret Saga

Pages : 1549
Book Description
Over twenty years in the writing, the three books in The Legend of The Secret Saga series evolved to be an fascinating magical story unlike any other, as they poetically weave together a strange epic tale. THE AUTHOR, Estee Shoesmyth, is a tangible figment of her own unbridled paradoxical imagination and the fantasy fiction pseudonym of eclectic American artist, Suzanne T. Dietz. The Legend Of The Secret Saga is the complete epic trilogy in one colorful volume. There is no other story like it in The Real World! The fantastical epic tale opens in Book One, which is When Begin Began. Celestial Scribe, Angel Daria pens the following words: "To Whom It May Concern: When this immense historical accounting commenced, I surely did not anticipate that the nature of this story would ever veer off the straight and narrow path. Instead, it proceeded to travel along the strangest winding ways. And so, I followed it most dutifully — with my pen in hand. Once upon a time, an anonymous philosopher on The Ultimate Earth aptly intellectualized, 'There are always three sides to every story: your side, the other side, and the truth.' The story presented to you here may seem like nothing more than a collection of my own fantastical delusions. Surely, it could not be that which I, myself, have ever witnessed! In that case, it would certainly not make it to be truth. However, it is ... by my best accounting ... the strange but true enough telling of a deliberately long-lost story from somewhere far out on the other side of Who-Knows-Where." That's just the beginning! In Book Two, The Murky Middle, the story dims to very, very dark with the introduction of a terribly wicked magician's sorcery. Through magic, he enters into a spirit world and adamantly decided to stay there. From that secret domain he meets another and the two, in cahoots, do some deliberately evil damage that stretches out from that invisible place right into the unsuspecting folks who live day to day in The Real World. Those folks do not stand a chance to escape being affected by the magician's insidious determination to capture them all. Eventually, Adam and Eve are reincarnated into The Real World on a specific mission, years beyond the peak of that magician's vicious reign. By then, the worse had evidently devolved into the worst that ultimately leads through to Book Three, The End Of The End. This story is utterly fascinating. Its twisting and turning through that which may be somewhat recognizable is more tangled up into the fantastical that is addictive to read onward to find out what happens next. All throughout there is mystery, magic, love, hate, obsessiveness, rejection, maliciousness, brilliance, stupidity, sickness, healing, forgiveness, revenge, romance, weirdness, wonderment, heavy heartedness, humor, life, death, and reincarnation. All along, there is that concept of eternity being a time lasting for Forever. Which, according to all reports in The Real World, Forever is a long, long time. The Legend Of The Secret Saga is the complete epic trilogy in one colorful volume. There is no other story like it in The Real World. Not from When Begin Began, throughout The Murky Middle, and all the way to The End Of The End. It is a story that is a Fairytale and a Fantasy. Magical and Mythical. Poetic and Artistic. The Legend Of The Secret Saga is fantastical and not as expected it might be!

Book Description
Good Morning, Africa is a compendium of series of poetry collection on the African dream, Sierra Leone experience, the power of regeneration, and love and life in general. Africa in recent time has experienced a series of wars that seriously threatened the corporate existence of most of its states and brought untold hardship on its people. these wars were quite devastating and gravely debased human dignity and beyond those brutally murdered; others live with the scars of these wars. The Sierra Leone experience is very green in our memories, the beauty of the country, the war and its consequences. Good Morning, Africa further elucidates the general African inclination with a cursory look at political events in Nigeria and its socioeconomic consequences on the country and its people. The Bakassi Peninsula experience was expressed. Good Morning, Africa is a must read for every vibrant and adventurous mind. It is an expression of Africa by an African in pursuit of an African dream italicized in poetry. Similarly, a peep into the various wars within the West African region in which we participated under ECOMOG brings home the feelings of African upset. These are aptly captured poetically in the wake-up call on Africa.

The Seafort Saga Books 1–3
Author: David Feintuch
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504048008
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 1764
Book Description
From a John W. Campbell Award–winning author: The original trilogy chronicling the military science fiction adventures of Nicholas Seafort. In a “splendid homage to the grand tradition of the old seafarer’s tale,” the Seafort Saga tells the story of an intergalactic captain’s journey through the galaxy (Roger MacBride Allen). Now, the first three installments of this epic series are available in one volume. Midshipman’s Hope: The year is 2194. Seventeen-year-old Nicholas Seafort is a fresh recruit with the United Nations Naval Service, serving as midshipman onboard the UNS Hibernia. En route to the colony of Hope Nation, the ship answers a distress call—only to lose the senior command staff in a daring rescue attempt. The chain of command has elevated Seafort into a leadership role he never anticipated. Surrounded by resentful and potentially mutinous officers, Seafort earns his stripes throughout Hibernia’s voyage, but his real trial awaits at Hope Nation with a startling revelation for humanity. Challenger’s Hope: Capt. Nicholas Seafort was in command of the UNS Challenger until he was assigned to Adm. Geoffrey Tremaine’s task force. Removed from his flagship, Seafort has been given the smaller UNS Portia, transporting colonists to the world of Detour. But an alien attack devastates both ships, leaving dozens of crewmen and passengers dead. Only UNS Challenger is in good enough condition to bring the survivors home—provided Seafort can regain and retain his captaincy. Prisoner’s Hope: Nicholas Seafort’s disastrous mission as captain of the UNS Challenger cost him nearly everything. The aliens responsible for decimating the United Nations Naval fleet are still a threat to the colony world of Hope Nation, whose inhabitants feel abandoned as the navy returns to Earth. To save the colonists, Seafort will have to sacrifice everything he has left and commit an act of high treason that could result in his death sentence.

Languages : en
Pages : 522
Book Description
Beyond Faith & Reason: is the fourth and final chapter in the Galanor Saga. Like its predecessors, it begins exactly where the previous installment (Beyond Flesh & Spirit) left off. I hope that you enjoy reading it, half as much as I enjoyed writing it...FMV BOOK ONE: Monsters And Madmen: After learning of Lucifus-Balador’s treachery, and his abandonment of hundreds of Atlantean survivors, Galanor sets sail in his new vessel, the Daedalus, to discover their fate. After several years, and thousands of nautical miles, he arrives at land encased with a thick jungle. He might have passed it by, if not for the discovery of a pyramid built along the lines of ancient Atlantis. Leaving his crew behind, in a protected cove, he and Anubis venture into the jungle. There, they find a culture that, after having been influenced by Azool, in the distant past, had turned to blood sacrifice and cannibalism. Inside the pyramid, he learns disturbing truths about the possible fate of the world, and his critical part in it. Book Two: Reunions And Revelations: With the affair at Sacsamu behind them, Galanor, Anubis and the crew of the Daedalus set sail eastward, back to the world they left, years earlier. A few days out to sea, they encounter a massive, hostile creature who, during a battle with Galanor, damages the Daedalus. In need of repair, they set sail for the duel island kingdom of Calaspara and Azarora, highly praised for its skilled craftsmen. Along the way, they make a grisly discovery that reinforces Galanor’s belief that a mad god, from another universe, has made inroads into our own, in the hopes of devouring all life. Once they reach their destination, they find that a usurper king, a victim of the plague of rage and despair created by the mad god, has turned the island nation into a prison camp. Bloody battles ensue. Many lives are lost, some precious, most not. And a few, very precious lives, are restored. Book Three: Beyond Faith And Reason: Upon leaving Calaspara and Azarora, Galanor is convinced that the world, if not the entire universe, is in peril. On his way to Zeptepi, while battling an old enemy, he encounters the mad god. Without his knowledge, she insinuates her venomous tendrils into his soul. Slowly, they take hold. As he fights their growing, maddening influence he realizes that his destiny is at hand. He sets out to engage her, in the name of The One who governs all life, for the final conflict. Along the way finds a safe harbor for Barlusch, meets one last time with those he loves, remedies festering wrongs, and saves, as well as ends, many lives. And then, at the appointed time and place, he meets the mad god, face to face. And...
