About Ten Days One Guernsey Summer
Set against the backdrop of a world at war, “Ten Days in One Guernsey Summer” is a poignant blend of fact and fiction, chronicling the harrowing yet inspiring journey of Laurence and Lily, a couple living in Guernsey during the brink of Nazi occupation in June 1940. As the shadows of war loom over the serene landscape of the island, the couple faces an agonizing decision that will forever alter the course of their lives.
The narrative unfolds over the ten days leading up to the occupation, a period marked by uncertainty, fear, and a desperate struggle for survival. The couple’s ordeal is set in motion when they must send their daughter away to England with her school, a heart-wrenching separation that sees her fatefully ending up in Scotland. The story delves deep into the emotional turmoil and resilience of Laurence and Lily as they grapple with the impossible choice between staying in their homeland or venturing into the unknown in the UK with their small children.
Amidst the chaos, a harsh reality dawns upon them: the likelihood of Laurence being unable to secure passage for himself. The narrative poignantly explores the themes of love, sacrifice, and survival as the couple weigh their options, each fraught with its own set of dangers and uncertainties. The pressing question of what Laurence’s fate would be if he were to stay alone on the island adds a layer of suspense and urgency to their decision-making.
Parallel to Laurence and Lily’s story, the book intricately weaves the life of a German pilot, offering a multifaceted view of the war. This pilot, destined to play a role in the tragic raid on St. Peter Port harbour, brings a contrasting perspective to the narrative, highlighting the complexities and moral ambiguities of war.
“Ten Days in One Guernsey Summer” is more than a story of survival; it’s a testament to the enduring human spirit in the face of overwhelming adversity. It invites readers to ponder the question: What would you have done in the same circumstances? This thought-provoking tale not only pays homage to the author’s grandparents but also sheds light on a significant, yet often overlooked, chapter of World War II history.

About Structured Madness
In the 1990s, C.S. Fuqua began researching the histories and structures of the myriad of poetry formats, both familiar and unfamiliar from cultures around the world.

About Passage to Shambhala, The Himalayan Journals of M.G. Hawking
Journey into the world of a profound legend through this unprecedented first-hand account to explore a reality that for long millenniums has remained concealed under layers of myth and secrecy.
Rarely has the world been so enduringly fascinated and inspired by an ancient legend as it has with the historically ubiquitous stories of Shambhala, the fabled hidden sanctuary of transcendentally enlightened sages and mystic masters. Scholars relate that the scriptures of the 4000 year-old pre-Tibetan Zhang Zhung culture may be the earliest extant references to this mysterious realm, yet it is described in many ancient traditions; the pre-Buddhist B’on treaties, the Kalki lore, the Puranas, the earliest texts of the Kalachakra Laghutantra, and in the ancient wisdom traditions of civilizations throughout the Himalayan regions of Asia and beyond. The Zhang Zhung and Tibetan scriptures refer to the mysterious world as Shambhala I lam-yig, B’on treaties as Olmolungring, Hindu histories as Aryavarth, Chinese as Hsi Tien, and Russian traditions as Belovoyde.
On an extended trek into a closed and largely unexplored inner region of the vast Himalayan wilderness, in an isolated valley surrounded by towering ice peaks, explorer M.G. Hawking chanced on a beautiful small village where he encountered extraordinary men and women, introduced to him as “masters” and “sages.”
This book, Passage to Shambhala, is an anthology containing comprehensive accounts of Hawking’s various experiences and conversations, including first-hand accounts of the psychokinetic abilities he witnessed and in-depth descriptions of his discussions with the masters and sages, revealing the esoteric knowledge and practices that make such extraordinary abilities possible. An incomparable book for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge and personal power, and notably fascinating for anyone interested in exploring the realities behind the ancient legends of Shambhala.
2024 Edition, e-reader page count 302 (estimated, actual count varies depending on the reading device). For more information, please see the ‘Read sample’ feature on this page. Thank you.

About I, Michelangelo Tom Maremaa
History runs in parallel in this work of post-modern fiction, repeating itself in the broken mirror of time.
In one mirror of time, we meet the great young artist and sculptor of the sixteenth century, Michelangelo, whose struggles with his family and Pope Julius II turn his life upside down while creating the monumental statue of David and painting the masterful, immortal frescoes of the Sistine Chapel. In another, we encounter the artist and enforcer of a criminal enterprise in the netherworld of the twenty-first century, also named Michelangelo, the most unlikely of anti-heroes. His fight against a rival criminal enterprise takes center stage in the story, which is told from more than a dozen different points of view.
Michelangelo’s assignment: take down the creator of a dark website called Yellow Brick Road. The creator, known by the code name of IDAHO, is a fathom figure. Nobody is sure if he or she is one or many people, or where the enterprise resides geographically. The stakes are high as Idaho always seems one step ahead of Michelangelo and is able to wreak havoc violently on Michelangelo’s life and family. Who will prevail? And at what cost?
All the while our brave anti-hero, a former middle-school teacher of art and music, is struggling to initiate his young, rebellious sixteen-year-old son Gio into the rites and duties of manhood. Father and son are seemingly always at odds, despite the profound love they share for each other.
We enter the netherworld of the Big Apple at the dawn of the present century when the Internet is just beginning to gain traction; Amazon is only selling books online. And the country is still basking in the glow of innocence and naivete as a new, youngish president has taken office. But in that netherworld, the Dark Web has already emerged in full force with dire consequences. Will justice be served? And if so, by what means?

About Magnificent Mansions – a book about hope for seemingly wasted and unfulfilled lives
Do you feel your life has been thrown away? If so, “Magnificent Mansions” is for you. It will make you think again. This book presents a true story and a compelling discussion about hope for seemingly wasted and unfulfilled lives. The discourse challenges some paradigms or dogmas that unnecessarily lead to frustration and disappointment among many Christians. The message intends for you to look at God, His work in us, and through us.
Matt Louis McCullough demonstrates through relatable and unique perspectives the freedom we can find in loving and being loved by God and trusting His work in us. For decades the author lay awake at night praying to sense some specific purpose and direction but experienced only long periods of silence. He withdraws to the grand arenas of nature and reflects on his outings. Whether within the mountains or oceans, he receives glimpses of the sublime nature of God. Yet Matt finds the most spectacular views are of the rooms being built in our Father’s house. Through scriptural revelations and seeing a noble presence in others, he finds new hope about His life and the room Christ can make for him. May you, too, have this hope and a good glimpse of the magnificent place and life He is preparing for you. Even out of the refuse, God is building a glorious life for His children. And it is grander than we realize!

About Jewel-less Crown: Saga of Life
It’s perilous penning this blurb.
It’s fine when man is modest about his work.
It even affords him the aura of an invisible crown!
But what about his work?
Were it an art or craft, it is there for all to see.
What of a literary work of an unheralded author?
Well, lauding the same might raise one’s eyebrows.
Failing to praise wouldn’t make a ‘jewel-less crown’ either!
Why not see, if this is the great Indian novel.
This is the story of the rise and fall of an ambitious man, the decline, and the decay of his conniving wife, the trials, and tribulations of their wayward son as well as the grit and gall of a spirited woman, who enters into his life.
This depiction of their life and times not only pictures the facets of ambition and achievement, intrigue and betrayal, compulsion and compromise, sleaze and scandal, trial and sentence, but also portrays the possibilities of repentance and resolution, love and empathy coupled with compassion and contribution, leading to the spirituality of materialism, and that makes it the saga of our times.
The story of a lifetime, truly.”
