  • In the Depths of Darkness

    Sean Fletcher

    language (Epic Worlds Publishing, Dec. 3, 2016)
    For fans of Brandon Sanderson's Skyward and Victoria Roth's Carve the Mark comes the first book in an epic science fantasy series about four dangerous outcasts up against a galaxy-full of enemies...There are no choices when the Earth Alliance arrests you. Alyx Starburn knows this all too well. Either he joins a new branch of the military, created to rehab convicts like him to defend Earth against alien threats, or he rots in a quarry on a backwater planet a thousand light-years away. It isn’t a hard decision.Soon, he’s teamed up with three other outcasts: Killian, calm under fire, but haunted by his past; Vaness, an icy-eyed killer who’d just as soon shoot you than smile; and Jess, alluring, friendly, with a roundhouse kick as deadly as the secrets she carries. But they have all been deceived.Without warning, the group is thrown into a galaxy far deadlier than they could have ever imagined. One where alliances are built on lies, secrets hunt you from the shadows, and those you trust the most could actually be the greatest enemy of all...An epic science fantasy full of pulse-pounding action, a star-crossed romance, and galaxy-sweeping adventure. Perfect for anyone looking for incredible worlds and characters to get lost in!This is Space Opera in all its glory. Things go boom. Humans meet aliens (sometimes to humorous effect). There’s a little romance and a lot of adventure.~ OutlawPoet, Amazon Vine ReviewerThis is one for lovers of dystopian fiction and the sci-fi addicts alike. I looked forward to reading it in every spare moment and it certainly wasn’t easy to put down when I actually needed to get some work done!~Sarah, Amazon ReviewerI was blown away by this book. It is a great story but it was the characters that grabbed me and wouldn't let me go. Their interactions with one another and with the people around them will keep you on the edge of your seat. If you like space fantasy with lots of action you will love this book~ Naniphy, Amazon Reviewer

  • Siddhartha

    Herman Hesse, 1st World Library

    eBook (1st World Publishing, July 31, 2013)
    In this Illustrated edition, 1st World has chosen the original published text of Herman Hesse and combined it with 12 original illustrations, from an elite collection of artists …specifically intended for this great classic work. The imagery is intended to enhance the reader's experience by invoking a deeper appreciation of India, Buddha and Vedic literature. Many of the images are taken from private collections and feature master artists from India such as Ved Pal Sharma and Shiv Shankar. See THE LAND OF LOVE ART AND GENIUS. In the shade of the house, in the sunshine of the riverbank near the boats, in the shade of the Sal-wood forest, in the shade of the fig tree is where Siddhartha grew up, the handsome son of the Brahman, the young falcon, together with his friend Govinda, son of a Brahman. The sun tanned his light shoulders by the banks of the river when bathing, performing the sacred ablutions, the sacred offerings. In the mango grove, shade poured into his black eyes, when playing as a boy, when his mother sang, when the sacred offerings were made, when his father, the scholar, taught him when the wise men talked. For a long time, Siddhartha had been partaking in the discussions of the wise men, practicing debate with Govinda, practicing with Govinda the art of reflection, the service of meditation. He already knew how to speak the Om silently, the word of words, to speak it silently into himself while inhaling, to speak it silently out of himself while exhaling, with all the concentration of his soul, the forehead surrounded by the glow of the clear-thinking spirit. He already knew to feel Atman in the depths of his being, indestructible, one with the universe.
