I, Who Did Not Dieby Zahed Haftlang

Khorramshahr, Iran, May 1982—It was the bloodiest battle of one of the most brutal wars of the twentieth century, and Najah, a twenty-nine-year-old wounded Iraqi conscript, was face to face with a thirteen-year-old Iranian child soldier who was ordered to kill him. Instead, the boy committed an astonishing act of mercy. It was an act that decades later would save his own life.

This is a remarkable story. It is gut-wrenching, essential, and astonishing. It’s a war story. A love story. A page-turner of vast moral dimensions. An eloquent and haunting act of witness to horrors beyond grimmest fiction, and a thing of towering beauty. More importantly, it is a story that must be told, and a richly textured view into an overlooked conflict and misunderstood region. This is the great untold story of the children and young men whose lives were sacrificed at the whim of vicious dictators and pointless, barbaric wars.

Little has been written of the Iran-Iraq war, which was among the most brutal conflicts of the twentieth century, one fought with chemical weapons, ballistic missiles, and cadres of child soldiers.

The numbers involved are staggering:
—All told, it claimed 700,000 lives—200,000 Iraqis, and 500,000 Iranians.
—Young men of military service age—eighteen and above in Iraq, fifteen and above in Iran—died in the greatest numbers.
—80,000 Iranian child soldiers were killed, mostly between the ages of sixteen and seventeen.
—The two countries spent a combined 1.1 trillion dollars fighting the war.

Rarely does this kind of reportage succeed so power- fully as literature. More rarely still does such searingly brilliant literature—fit to stand beside Remarque, Hemingway, and O’Brien—emerge from behind “enemy” lines.

But Zahed, a child, and Najah, a young restaurateur, are rare men—not just survivors, but masterful, wondrously gifted storytellers. Written with award-winning journalist Meredith May, this is literature of a very high order, set down with passion, urgency, and consummate skill. This story is an affirmation that, in the end, it is our humanity that transcends politics and borders and saves us all.

Quiet Mind Epic Life: Escape The Status Quo & Experience Enlightened Prosperity Nowby Matthew Ferry

Matthew Ferry presents his Rapid Enlightenment Process inside his new book Quiet Mind Epic Life.

Enlightenment is not a place. It’s not a destination. It’s a state. It’s a point of view. Enlightenment is a contextual framework that makes living an epic life possible. Let me give you my definition of Enlightenment so you understand our end game together…

Enlightenment is the recognition that the source of life within you… is also the source of life in everyone else… and everything else. We are all one thing expressing itself with infinite variety.

When you truly see that the source of life within you is also the source of life in everyone else, and everything else, you enter into an enlightened state. When you see that we are all one thing expressing itself with an infinite variety, and the only thing that makes us different, is our perspective about it…. boom! Everything changes and fear disappears.

From this new perspective you rise above the limitations of cultural conditioning. You don’t have to follow the rules anymore. Everything is up for evaluation. You see dogma for what it is, just stories that were made up by well meaning people. But stories none the less. Not valid. Not true. Not real. Finally, you feel free. The invisible barriers disappear.

This is what I want for you. This is the promise of Quiet Mind Epic Life.

“FIVE STARS: The villain of the story is repugnant and brutal. Hatred for him comes as easy as breathing. It takes a skilled author to arouse such strong emotions in readers, and JB Michaels has proved his talent by doing just that. The plot is extremely riveting and enticing. The action scenes are remarkably vivid and exciting. The plot never seemed to loosen its grip on me.” – Ankita Shukla for Readers’ Favorite

“FIVE STARS: Fast-paced and interesting, this is a novel that is perfectly woven together. And after a breathtaking ride, we realize that all the courage and heroism in this story is driven purely by that emotion called love. ” – Maria Beltran for Readers’ Favorite

“FIVE STARS: The characterization of the various enemies he meets along the way is what really sets the novel apart from its other counterparts. JB Michaels takes traditional beasts and pirate tropes and bathes them in realistic writing to bring them to life.” – K.C. Finn for Readers’ Favorite

Everyone in Columbia Falls, Montana believes that Chelsea Friessen is a spoiled princess who is more trouble than she’s worth. They’d be wrong though, considering that tale was spun by a scorned high school crush and two years later is still the first impression everyone has of her.

But when she meets a man whose personality is as arrogant as he is drop dead gorgeous that if Chelsea was in her right mind should have her running away from him. The only problem is that this badass stranger walked into her life knowing he saved her from humiliation, a stranger and a kiss she couldn’t resist where he pretended to be her fiancé. The only problem with pretending is it suddenly becomes far too real.

Our Little Liesby Sue Watson

Marianne has a life others dream of. A beautiful townhouse on the best street in the neighbourhood. Three bright children who are her pride and joy.

Sometimes her past still hurts: losing her mother, growing up in foster care. But her husband Simon is always there. A successful surgeon, he’s the envy of every woman they’ve ever met. Flowers, gifts, trips to France – nothing is too good for his family.

Then Simon says another woman’s name. The way he lingers on it, Caroline, gives Marianne a shudder of suspicion, but she knows she can’t entertain this flash of paranoia.

In the old days, she’d have distracted herself at work, but Marianne left her glamorous career behind when she got married. She’d speak to a friend, but she’s too busy with her children and besides, Simon doesn’t approve of the few she has left.

It’s almost by accident that Marianne begins to learn more about Caroline. But once she starts, she can’t stop. Because what she finds makes her wonder whether the question she should be asking is not ‘should she be jealous’, but… ‘should she be scared’?
