The president of Pakistan is assassinated. A U.S. military base is hit by a North Korean missile. America and Britain discover chilling links between the attacks. But U.S. President Jim West wants to avoid another war. Mary Newman, his young and brilliant Secretary of State, disagrees.

Detail by authentic detail, Humphrey Hawksley chillingly captures the unthinkable: a world speeding towards its own destruction. [detailed...]

April D. Deconick
The Thirteenth Apostle: What the Gospel of Judas Really Says

2007 y.
Publisher: Continuum
Description: In 2006 National Geographic released the first English translation of the Gospel of Judas, a second-century text discovered in Egypt in the 1970s. The translation caused a sensation because it seemed to overturn the popular image of Judas the betrayer and instead presented a benevolent Judas who was a friend of Jesus. In The Thirteenth Apostle April DeConick offers a new translation of the Gospel of Judas which seriously challenges the National Geographic interpretation of a good Judas. Inspired by the efforts of the National Geographic team to piece together this ancient manuscript, DeConick sought out the original Coptic text and began her own translation. `I didn`t find the sublime Judas, at least not in Coptic. What I found were a series of English translation choices made by the National Geographic team, choices that permitted a different Judas to emerge in the English translation than in the Coptic original. Judas was not only not sublime, he was far more demonic than any Judas… [detailed...]

Description: From the pen of the legendary historical novelist Jean Plaidy comes the story of Princess Margaret Tudor, whose life of tragedy, bloodshed, and scandal would rival even that of her younger brother, Henry VIII. Princess Margaret Tudor is the greatest prize when her father, Henry VII, negotiates the Treaty of Perpetual Peace with neighboring Scotland. The betrothal is meant to end decades of bloody border wars, but it becomes a love match: To Margaret’s surprise, she finds joy in her marriage to the dashing James IV of Scotland, a man sixteen years her senior. But the marriage, and the peace it brings to both nations, does not last. When King James is struck down by the armies of Henry VIII, Margaret—Princess of England, but Queen of Scotland—finds herself torn between loyalty to the land and family of her birth and to that of her baby son, now King of the Scots.

Description: Book Description It begins in the 1960s-an unimaginable series of political machinations leading to one act of greed and destruction after another, until in the twenty-first century, the world faces a single, global dictator. Behind the takeover is an odd, yet frighteningly effective, alliance of international governments and inner-city gangs. Lining up against the tyrannical forces are three men, each committed to exposing the fifty-year-old conspiracy, and together capable of mounting an undeniably formidable resistance. If they succeed, the world has a chance. If they fail, the world is doomed to the prospect of a `Fourth Reich.` The key to the world`s future is The Thor Conspiracy .

The Thoreau You Don`t Know: What the Prophet of Environmentalism Really Meant

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Henry David Thoreau is one of those authors that readers think they know, even if they don`t. He`s the solitary curmudgeon with the shack out in the woods, the mystic worshipping solemnly in the quiet church of nature. He`s our national Natural Man, the prophet of environmentalism. But here Robert Sullivan—who himself has been called an `urban Thoreau` (New York Times Book Review)—presents the Thoreau you don`t know: the activist, the organizer, the gregarious adventurer, the guy who likes to go camping with friends (even if they sometimes accidentally burn the woods down). Sullivan argues that Walden was a book intended to revive America, a communal work forever pigeonholed as a reclusive one, and this misreading is at the heart of our troubled relationship with the environment today. Sullivan shows us not a lonely eccentric but a man in his growing village: a man who danced and sang, who worked throughout his short life at the family pencil-making business, and moved into his… [detailed...]

Description: This gripping and passionate tale of an Australian family is a natural for audio presentation, and Mary Woods gives a worthy rendering. The daunting variety of characters would challenge any reader, but after floundering briefly in the myriad distinctive voices, Woods hits her stride with distinction. As the plot takes the listener from the Australian outback to the Papal court, Woods brings to life characters ranging from loutish Luke O`Neill to single-minded Meggie Cleary to urbane Vittorio Scarbanza di Contini-Verchese, characters who speak not only with emotion, but also with believable accents. Woods creates an audio edition that is as addictive to listen to as the book is to read. [detailed...]
