  THEY FLED AN OLD WORLD RAVAGED BY WAR AND HEARTBREAK TO SEIZE THEIR HEARTS' DESIRES IN THE NEW...
  The ninth book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams.
  Justin Broome, the son of two of the most legendary prisoners in New South Wales, learns that skill and courage do not stand a chance against prejudice.
  Bitterness and disappointment are mixed with the wear and tear of his everyday life; all the while shiploads of miserable prisoners and free settlers continue to arrive from a war-weary England.
  Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.

  The Death Ship tells the story of an American sailor, stateless and penniless because he has lost his passport, who is harassed by police and hounded across Europe until he finds an 'illegal' job shoveling coal in the hold of a steamer bound for destruction. The Death Ship is the first of B. Traven's politically charged novels about life among the downtrodden, which have sold more than thirty million copies in thirty-six languages. 
  Praise for The Death Ship:  
  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A damn good high seas adventure novel with all the trimmings. This one lived up to expectations. 
  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's a funny first-person yarn by a happy-go-unlucky societal misfit that's reminiscent of Mark Twain. 
  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of these books you read once and never forget. 
  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When you see B. Traven on the spine of a book, just pick it up... hurry home with it.

  Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire 
  Enter the twilight of Tenochtitlán, where the clash of empires ignites a tale of vengeance, guilt, and mystical destiny. Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire is an immersive historical audiobook that weaves the raw brutality of the Spanish conquest with the haunting allure of Mexica mythology, unraveling the fates of three souls bound by a cursed jade amulet. 
  Through vivid prose and rich sensory detail, listeners are plunged into the fall of an empire: the roar of flames consuming sacred temples, the whispers of ancient chants echoing through blood-soaked causeways, and the relentless pulse of a jade relic that holds the power to redeem or destroy. Meet Alonso de Montemayor, a tormented conquistador wrestling with the sins of his blade; Itzel, a fierce Mexica warrior fueled by loss and vengeance; and Luis, their mestizo son, torn between two worlds as he inherits a legacy of blood and prophecy. 
  From the smoldering ruins of Ehécatl’s Temple to the revelation of a hidden codex pointing to a lost city, this epic narrative explores the collision of cultures, the cost of conquest, and the fragile hope of renewal. Blending meticulous historical detail with the mysticism of prehispanic lore, Tears of Jade is a gripping journey through a world on the brink—where the past whispers through murals, the present bleeds, and the future hangs on a cursed dawn. 
    
  Perfect for fans of historical fiction, Mesoamerican history, and tales of fate and redemption, this audiobook transports you to the heart of 16th-century Mexico—a land of gods, warriors, and empires where every choice echoes through time. Narrated with passion and depth, Tears of Jade: The Cursed Empire is a haunting tribute to a civilization lost and the souls who carry its legacy.
