Sinopse

The North African desert, 1942. Recovering from his injuries, Lieutenant Douglas Tulloch returns to the Lothian Rifles just as the tide of war shifts.
 
With Rommel’s forces pressing deep into Allied territory, the British are pushed to their limits and the Lothians find themselves outgunned and struggling to hold the line. The morale of Tulloch's unit is crumbling, and he must rebuild trust among his men while navigating a war that seems increasingly hopeless.
 
As the men prepare for a defining battle at El Alamein, personal encounters with the enemy force Tulloch to question not only his adversaries, but also the cost of his duty.
 
A gripping story of courage, leadership and the brutal reality of warfare, THE END OF THE BEGINNING is the third book in Malcolm Archibald's series of historical war novels.

    Five new pastiche stories of the world's greatest detective. These stories are shorter than the other novellas in the New Sherlock Holmes Mysteries set and were published earlier in either the MX Books or Belanger Books anthologies of Sherlock Holmes stories (Edited by David Marcum). 'The Singular Tragedy of the Atkinson Brothers at Trincomalee' is one of the unpublished cases we hear about in The Canon. The story Takes Holmes and Watson to the tropical island of Ceylon on behalf of the Foreign Office to investigate the murder of one of the Atkinson brothers and sends Holmes into a nasty web of deceit, murder, and perversion in the heat of the colonies. In 'The Barrel of Lagavulin' the adventures of Sherlock Holmes meet up with characters from the tales of Edgar Allan Poe and we learn what happens long after the horrendous events recorded in 'The Cask of Amontillado.' Did you ever wonder what happened to the characters from the Vermissa Valley that you read about in 'The Valley of Fear?" In 'The Fear of Retribution' you will find out, and it is not pleasant. 'The Adventure of the Winchester Heart-Breaker' takes Holmes and Watson back to the Copper Beeches and to what happened to the nasty child who loved to go 'smack, smack, smack' on the cockroaches. 'The Adventure of the Tea-Stained Diamonds' is a completely new Sherlock Holmes mystery in which Holmes needs to stop a cycle of revenge killings that began years earlier in the tea gardens of Darjeeling. If you love the stories of Sherlock Holmes, these five new mysteries will appeal to you

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    A long time ago, in unmeasurable eons of time; not in some distant galaxy, far, far away; but right here, in our own comismic backyard; in our solar system… there was no earth. 
    Wait… Think about that. Modern science assumes earth was always here, but the truth? It wasn’t. That means there are stories never written, stories never told, and heroes lost to the void. 
    Look around today: barren planets, drifting debris, silence where life should thrive. But these aren’t just empty spaces… They’re clues! Fragments of a puzzle. 
    This is where we begin: connecting the dots, filling the gaps, and uncovering what the universe forgot. 
    To grasp our place in cosmic time, imagine the galaxy as a vast clock. Its 'minute hand' sweeps through twelve constellations; the Zodiac, marking a celestial cycle so immense, one full rotation spans roughly 26,000 earth-years. 
    We live our lives within a single astronomical hour of this cycle. An 'Age,' lasting approximately 2,160 years. Right now, the cosmic pendulum hovers at the twilight of the Age of Pisces. The dawn of Aquarius glimmers on the horizon; though some argue its first light has already broken through the darkness. 
    With this in mind, our saga begins in the Age of Gemini. Though which Gemini age, even the stars might hesitate to say.
