  The mainsail cracked above them in the ferocious wind as a group of red-faced men descended on John. "You have brought a curse on us. Overboard with you," one of the men yelled. A chorus of cheers went up. It was the last sound John heard before he was dumped over the side of the ship and engulfed by the dark, roiling ocean."Thrown overboard, enslaved by the Turks, captured by pirates, rescued by a princess-the story of Englishman John Smith (1580-1631) would seem unbelievable were it fiction. Young John first sought adventure in Europe, traveling as far as Russia and distinguishing himself in the wars that raged across the Old World.But John Smith's real passion was for the New World, and in 1607 he sailed to North America with the men who would establish the first lasting British settlement-Jamestown. There he fought level-headedly for the policies that would enable the fragile community to survive starvation, disease, and deadly attacks to become a foothold in the New World.Heroes of History is a unique biography series that brings the shaping of history to life with the remarkable true stories of fascinating men and women who changed the course of history.The stories of Heroes of History are told in an engaging narrative format, where related history, geography, government, and science topics come to life and make a lasting impression.

  Circulus Veneficae - Daughter of...

  Circulus Veneficae is not just a story—it is a manifesto whispered in the dark. At its heart lies Lilith, the outcast who refuses submission, reborn in the voice of a young woman who has grown tired of smiling while bleeding. From whispered confessions in a warehouse to rituals painted in lipstick and fire, the circle grows: Mira, Selina, Noor, Alma—each scarred, each burning with hunger, each carrying a secret that demands release. 
  Their revenge begins with symbols—mirrors, words, small acts of rebellion—but soon escalates into a dangerous game of seduction and exposure. Men who believed themselves untouchable find themselves reflected in a mirror they can no longer bear to face. But in every act of resistance lies a question: how far can you go before you lose yourself? 
  Mixing sensual prose with raw emotion, Circulus Veneficae blurs the line between vengeance and salvation, between poison and prayer. It is a story of women who catch fire and refuse to be extinguished. Dark, intoxicating, and painfully human, it is an ode to survival, sisterhood, and the dangerous beauty of female rage.

  Global Dictator Handbook - Guide...

  "Global Dictator Handbook" is a satirical, dystopian narrative that uses humor to critique the extreme nature of dictatorship. It serves as a cautionary tale about the erosion of freedoms and rights, reminding readers to cherish their freedom and autonomy.   
   This book's exaggerated scenarios and tongue-in-cheek comedy make it a compelling read for those interested in playfully educating themselves and others about the authoritarian regime that openly states its desire to enslave the entire world under the guise of a global credit score.   
   The "triple threat title" that this book offers are:   
   1. That you will be enslaved by the New World Order. 
  2. That The New World Order will be overthrown and judged by you. 
  3. That the God of the Bible has already won every battle and would love your voluntary alignment with his will as the Author and Finisher of all stories.    
   I pray this satire invites you to invite and trust him, who is faithful and proves that he is outside of our time domain by writing history in advance.  
  The biblical prophetic commentary that we eventually run into is that of my best understanding as an author, and I reserve the right to be wrong about everything. I encourage anybody to search out these things for themselves and make their own convictions about biblical, government and world events.  
   Master FEWNU, The personification of the one million billionaires who plan to enslave the 8 billion global residents, is my playful, creative way of personifying the road to hell that was paved by (some) good intentions of people who nobody voted for.  
   Cheers to your playful reverse psychology education!

What he hadn't been aware of, though, were the adventures Archie and Joe were going to be involved in, because of their love for the Gnomes. This was a pity.
