  As the clash of swords and the cries of the fallen resound through the valleys of Germany, King Gustavus Adolphus stands poised to change the course of history. Fourteen years of devastation sparked by religious tensions have left a scarred land and the Swedish monarch gathers his loyal army for a final, decisive strike against the tyranny of the Catholic Cause. 
   
  Once again all hope is pinned on James Bretherton, now a senior commander in the Protestant Army, whose name has become synonymous with courage and leadership. After a brief respite in the company of his family, he is drawn back into the conflict -not just out of duty but compelled by a deeper calling to secure the religious freedom of the German Protestants and continue to serve one of the greatest military leaders in history: the Lion of the North. Yet, as Colonel Bretherton returns, he finds a world transformed by dark ambition and masquerading loyalties. Friends may not be as they seem, and enemies lurk behind every corner, ready to exploit a moment of weakness. 
   
  As the battle for faith and freedom rages on, James must navigate a treacherous landscape of alliances, betrayal, and sacrifice. Can he honour his principles and protect the ones he loves in a time where trust is the rarest currency? Lion of the North is a gripping tale of bravery and conviction that explores the thin line between ally and adversary in an age of chaos. 
   
  The exciting third instalment in the English Mercenary series by Griff Hosker. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and S. G. Maclean.

  Rome 999AD. Brother Galen never sought sainthood. But in the heart of Rome, where popes make kings and cardinals plot in shadows, choice is an illusion. Will Galen become a symbol of holy power—prized, controlled, and trapped inside the glittering halls of the Lateran Palace?

  Introducing Trace and Chaw: a pugnacious pair of Civil War veterans who nearly killed each other in battle—but lived to fight another day. Together . . . 
   
   
   
  They met in a bloodbath. Two demons in uniform caught in the middle of one hell of a war. Private Chaw, the Rebel, liked chewing tobacco and fighting blue-bellied Yanks. Private Trace, the Yankee, hated Southerners, especially ornery cusses like Chaw. But when the smoke cleared after the Battle of Deadeye Gap, the Blue and the Gray of their uniforms didn't matter anymore. Both were stained blood red. And both were the last men standing . . . 
   
   
   
  This was the beginning of a beautiful friendship. 
   
   
   
  Now that the war's over, Trace and Chaw travel the West together. They're handy with six-guns and gut-shredders, fond of women and liquor, and always ready to raise hell. Somehow, the unlikely partnership works—until Trace and Chaw sign up with a freighting company run by a beautiful woman. Her company is caught in the crossfire of two rival mine owners who want to control the freight routes. Like it or not, Trace and Chaw are stuck in the middle of another war. And this one's going to be every bit as bloody—and maybe their last . . .

  "O Pioneers!" is one of Willa Cather's most celebrated novels, published in 1913. It's the first book in her "Great Plains Trilogy" and is set in the rural farming community of Hanover, Nebraska, at the turn of the 20th century. The story focuses on the life of Alexandra Bergson, a strong-willed young woman who inherits her father's farm and must navigate the challenges of frontier life. Cather paints a rich portrait of the American Midwest, exploring themes of immigration, the relationship between people and the land they inhabit, and the enduring spirit of the pioneers who sought to tame it.

  The Flight in Winter

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  The Campbells had always been King’s men. Indeed, MacCailean Mor (Son of the Great Colin) was the Gaelic title of the Campbell chief. This was in memory of Sir Colin Campbell, murdered in the String of Lorne in 1296 whilst on King’s business. It was therefore with great heart searching that Archibald Campbell, 8th Earl and later 1st Marquess of Argyll, found himself leading the Covenanters. 
  This is the story of his life from a teenaged Lord Lorne until his execution by a vengeful Charles II. Many at the time held that it was judicial murder. Argyll was a man before his time and desired a constitutional monarchy and freedom of worship, both of which we take for granted today.
