  Battle Scars - Twenty Years...

  The most eye-opening, and terrifying, story in Chip Reid's career as a journalist was the six weeks he spent with 3d Battalion, 5th Marines, during the invasion of Iraq in 2003, as a correspondent for NBC News. Traveling shoulder-to-shoulder with the young Marines, he had unparalleled access, witnessing them in combat, and interviewing as many as he could persuade his bosses to put on air, allowing them to tell their war stories in their own words. 
   
   
   
  It took only twenty-two days for the Marines of 3/5 to fight their way to Baghdad, but the effects on those who fought have lasted a lifetime. They lost a number of their own in battle, and others suffered life-threatening injuries. Many have had to find their own way through survivor's guilt and the nightmare of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, with all its attendant miseries. 
   
   
   
  Twenty years on, Chip sat down with the Marines of 3/5 once more. They told Chip inspiring stories of heroism in battle, of camaraderie and comrades lost, of patriotism and belief in mission, of recovery and success in both military and civilian life, and of the new appreciation for life that results from Post-Traumatic Growth. Visceral and searingly honest, this book is a tribute to the Marines for their service, and for the many sacrifices they made then, and that many still make today. 
   
   
   
  This enhanced audiobook edition includes nearly two hours of raw and uncut interviews with Marines of 3/5 recorded in preparation for writing this book.

  The Night House - Folklore Fairy...

  Danielle Dulsky

  Fairy tales are more than mere bedtime stories; they are living, breathing repositories of ancient wisdom and magick.In The Night House, bestselling author and word-witch Danielle Dulsky peels back the layers of these timeless narratives to reveal their potent role as guides for navigating today's world. Historically kept and passed on by women, fairy tales are distinguishable from other types of folk tales by their supernatural elements, and because of this, they were often dismissed as trivial fantasies for women and children. Danielle illuminates how this marginalization kept these stories safe from the witch-hunter's noose and allowed women to safely store and transmit their sacred age-old wisdom for new generations to uncover and explore. Her fresh and relevant commentary will support your kinship with the Earth, ancestors, and your own living myth. The Night House shows how a single fairy tale is actually a treasure box of coded knowledge and magickal practice that has remained largely intact, preserved under the floorboards of the Yaga's hut for us to find.
