Sinopse

In "Jungle Tales of Tarzan," Edgar Rice Burroughs masterfully compiles a series of interconnected short stories that delve into the life of Tarzan, the legendary figure raised by apes in the African jungle. Written in a vivid and engaging prose style, this collection explores themes of civilization versus savagery, identity, and the complexities of human nature as Tarzan navigates his existence between two worlds. Each tale is imbued with lush, descriptive language, illustrating the rich and tumultuous landscape of the jungle, while also reflecting the early 20th-century fascination with adventure and the wilderness. Edgar Rice Burroughs, born in 1875, was a prolific American author whose diverse career spanned pulp fiction, adventure novels, and space operas. His experiences as an explorer and his exposure to the burgeoning genres of fantasy and science fiction undoubtedly inspired him to create the Tarzan character, who has since become an enduring icon of literature. Burroughs' own fascination with the natural world and his critiques of societal norms inform the narratives within this collection, making it a vital part of his broader oeuvre. "Jungle Tales of Tarzan" is highly recommended for readers seeking an enthralling adventure that transcends the boundaries of human experience. With its captivating storytelling and profound thematic explorations, this collection invites both new and returning readers to immerse themselves in Tarzan'Äôs world, compelling us to question our own identities and place within the natural order.

    Is the risk worth the reward? 
    	It was a time to gather with the allies to witness the wedding of a president and his ol’ lady in front of the three powerful clubs that rule western Pennsylvania. 
    	The Bloody Fury MC. 
    	The Dark Knights MC. 
    	And of course, Crash’s own club, the Dirty Angels MC. 
    	Three tight-knit brotherhoods celebrating a weekend blow-out full of women, partying and more. 
    	For Crash, it may end up being so much more. 
    	She’s the property of another club. 
    	Property he can’t resist touching. 
    	But taking what he wants means risking a crack in the alliance, one he doesn’t want to be responsible for. 
    	Creating an issue he doesn’t need to cause for his MC. For his president. 
    	But Crash has never been one to blindly follow the rules. 
    	Especially when it comes to someone so tempting. 
    	In the end, she ends up being a risk he can’t stop from taking. 
    	To hell with the consequences. 
    Note: While this book can be read as a standalone, it’s a crossover between the Dirty Angels MC series and the Blood Fury MC series. It’s best read after the complete DAMC series and before Blood & Bones: Ozzy (Blood Fury MC, book 9). As always, this book has no cheating, no cliffhanger and has an HEA.

    England, 1979. Vincent, Lawrence and William are the last remaining residents of a secluded New Forest home, part of the government's Sycamore Scheme. Every day, the triplets do their chores, play their games and take their medicine, under the watchful eyes of three mothers: Mother Morning, Mother Afternoon and Mother Night. 
     
    Their nightmares are recorded in The Book of Dreams. 
    Their lessons are taken from The Book of Knowledge. 
    And their sins are reported in The Book of Guilt. 
     
    All the boys want is to be sent to the Big House in Margate, where they imagine a life of sun, sea and fairground rides. But, as the government looks to shut down the Sycamore Homes, the triplets begin to question everything they have been told. 
     
    Gradually surrendering its dark secrets, The Book of Guilt is a profoundly unnerving exploration of belonging in a world where some lives are valued less than others.
