SAHARA
 
Ten years ago, he commanded the firing squad.
 
Now, a killer storm has trapped him in a desert ruin with the dead man’s son.
 
Vengeance will be paid in blood before the night is over.
 
In the brutal Sahara desert, a cataclysmic sandstorm forces Captain Pleuteur and his French Foreign Legion patrol into a desolate, ancient temple. They are not alone. Inside waits Es Jissali, a Tuareg leader who has spent a decade dreaming of revenge against the man who executed his father.
 
As the storm seals them in, the temple becomes a pitch-black tomb where every shadow hides a blade. With the darkness as their ally, Jissali’s warriors begin their silent hunt. Pleuteur must protect not only his men but also the estranged wife who just crash-landed at his feet, fighting an enemy who moves like a phantom and kills without a sound.
 
This explosive, action-packed historical thriller is a must-read for fans of Wilbur Smith and Alistair MacLean. A classic adventure filled with raw suspense, this is a tale of survival, betrayal, and a desperate battle against a foe who knows only one law, and that is vengeance.

Cup of Gold

John Steinbeck

The first novel from American literary great John Steinbeck (Grapes of Wrath) tells the fictionalized story of the illustrious 17th century pirate Captain Henry Morgan  
Henry Morgan is a young boy growing up in a small town in Wales. One day, a sailor returns to regale Henry with tales of the West Indies, and the glory that awaits those adventuresome enough to go. Henry, dazzled, quickly finds a place aboard a ship heading to the islands, thus setting himself on the path to becoming the brutal and fearsome pirate Captain Morgan.  
The portrait Steinbeck paints of Morgan (with some artistic license taken) is of a complex, lustful, and largely unhappy man, set in evocative locales that are laced with traces of magical realism. Though Morgan’s life was filled with blood and violence, Steinbeck portrays him as a thoughtful and intelligent commander of men, whose tragic flaw is an unquenchable lust for great accomplishments combined with a misunderstanding of what great accomplishments actually are.  
Through his cunning he repeatedly attains the ever-grander victories he seeks—but he quickly discovers what so many before and after him have discovered: that achievement is not always as satisfying as the quest to achieve.  
Publisher's Note: Originally published in 1929, Cup of Gold is a literary work that reflects the time in which it was published—both its good and its ill. The original text contains wording and terminology that represent outdated cultural beliefs regarding race and ethnicity. In the interest of preserving and documenting both the faults and highlights of literary history—an instrumental, crucial function of works entering the public domain—this text is unedited and uncensored in this audiobook recording.
