Rise of the Witch

Publisher: BookRix

Summary

Karolina was beautiful. Named after the State she was born.
A rich heiress with fiery red hair whose heart could not be tamed.
Her father wanted her to settle down and marry, or he would cut her out of his will.
But she wanted to go to the university to be trained as a nurse instead.
That was her passion.
But he refused her until the war of 1812, which escalated just off the coast of their private estate on Lake Erie.
So he sent her to the university to shield her from the war.
But instead of protecting her, her profession landed her right in the middle of the battlefield instead.
There she fell in love with a patient she was tending to, an officer named Alex Steele. He was wounded and left for dead, but she nursed him back to health.
After he recovered, he seemed even more determined to get himself killed by fighting in the next battle with the remainder of the army under his command.
Karolina was determined to give him a reason to live instead of die.
So she propositioned him.
Would Karolina save the man she loves, and could she convince him to marry her, if only long enough to save her inheritance, or would the Battle of 1812 see Karolina in ruins?

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
