  Twelve authors shed new light on the true history and enduring mythology of seventeenth– and eighteenth–century pirates in this anthology of scholarly essays. 
   
   
    
  The twelve entries in The Golden Age of Piracy discuss why pirates thrived in the seas of the New World, how pirates operated their plundering ventures, how governments battled piracy, and when and why piracy declined. Separating Hollywood myth from historical fact, these essays bring the real pirates of the Caribbean to life with a level of rigor and insight rarely applied to the subject. 
   
   
    
  The Golden Age of Piracy also delves into the enduring status of pirates as pop culture icons. Audiences have devoured stories about cutthroats such as Blackbeard and Henry Morgan since before Robert Louis Stevenson wrote Treasure Island. By looking at the ideas of gender and sexuality surrounding pirate stories, the renewed interest in hunting for pirate treasure, and the construction of pirate myths, the contributing authors tell a new story about the dangerous men, and a few dangerous women, who terrorized the high seas.

  For centuries, humanity has looked to the stars with wonder and curiosity, speculating about the existence of life beyond our planet. While astronomers and scientists seek concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life, a different kind of proof has captured the public's imagination: alien abduction accounts. These extraordinary stories, often dismissed as fantasy or delusion, have sparked debates that straddle the line between science, psychology, and the unexplained. 
    
  Alien abduction accounts are far more than just eerie anecdotes. They tap into deep cultural and existential questions: Are we alone in the universe? What is the nature of human consciousness? And perhaps most intriguingly, how much of the unknown are we truly capable of understanding? From detailed descriptions of spacecraft and strange beings to recurring themes of medical examinations and missing time, these stories share uncanny similarities, even when reported by individuals with no connection to one another. 
    
  Yet, the credibility of these accounts remains fiercely debated. Skeptics point to psychological phenomena, such as sleep paralysis, hallucinations, or false memory creation, as plausible explanations. Believers, however, argue that the physical evidence, witness corroborations, and profound emotional impact on abductees cannot be so easily dismissed.

  Norman Invasion of England The:...

  For hundreds of years, the Anglo-Saxons – who had been harassing the Saxon Shore as pirates –began to settle in Britain, creating a patchwork of little kingdoms and starting a new era of English history. Several early medieval historians, writing well after the events, said the Anglo-Saxons were invited to Britain to defend the region from the northern tribes and ended up taking over. The Venerable Bede (672 or 673-735) said in his Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (“Ecclesiastical History of the English People”) that in the year 449, “The British consulted what was to be done and where they should seek assistance to prevent or repel the cruel and frequent incursions of the northern nations. They all agreed with their king Vortigern to call over to their aid, from the parts beyond the sea, the Saxon nation. … The two first commanders are said to have been Hengist and Horsa.” 
  	However they came to control most of England, the Anglo-Saxons became the dominant power in the region for nearly 500 years, and the strength of their cultural influence could be felt even after William the Conqueror won the Battle of Hastings and became the first Norman ruler on the island. William is one of history’s most famous conquerors, but the efforts to consolidate his rule in England were complicated from the start, both due to external enemies and those jockeying for his position while he was still alive. William ultimately decided to split Normandy and England. His son Robert, still in open revolt, would nonetheless inherit Normandy, while the next in line, his second son William, would rule England. The two states that William left behind were hardly united or at peace. Soon after his death, Odo conspired with Robert to oust his brother from the English throne and re-establish a united state, but the revolt failed, and King William “Rufus” II would rule England until his suspicious death in 1100.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if your darkest desire was also the salvation of your relationship? 
  Emma and Rose have been together for ten years. Ten years of love... and routine, of silence, of looks that no longer burn. Until a suspicious message on Rose's phone changes everything. Instead of breaking apart, Emma lets herself be carried away by an unexpected flood: the thrill of watching. Of spying. Of obeying. 
  What starts as a suspicion turns into a dynamic of power, lust, and submission that awakens the deepest desires of both. Rose, dominant, cruel, and addicted to control, finds a new way to love through play, humiliation, and exposure. Emma, sweet, emotional, and insecure, discovers that being used, shared, and marked gives her something she thought she'd lost: pleasure... and belonging. 
  This is an intense, uncensored erotic story about a couple's relationship reborn through pain, surrender, and consensual perversion. Featuring explicit scenes, BDSM dynamics, cuckolding, fetishes, and moments of deep emotional connection, this novel is not for sensitive readers. 
  But if you dare to watch, feel, and surrender... welcome to this journey where love and humiliation dance to the same rhythm.
