    Through the centuries, succession to the English throne has largely been dictated by blood. Children were born to the role, their destinies entwined with that of the nation. They would be raised with the expectation that they would eventually take their place on the throne and rule the land. But not all those expected to wear the crown completed this journey. 
     
    Ashley Mantle explores the lives of several heirs apparent, from the Norman Conquest to the present day, who were destined to assume the throne of England but, for one reason or another, did not. You will meet such figures as Robert Curthose, eldest son of William the Conqueror, whose ineptitude saw him twice barred from the crown; Edward V, whose disappearance in 1483 still remains a mystery; Lady Jane Grey, the tragic Nine Days Queen; and Sophia, Electress of Hanover, who died months before her accession. Along the way we will explore the nature of rule to determine what was expected of an heir and how an heir was groomed in preparation for their ascent, as well as how the rules surrounding the succession have changed over the centuries.

    The only goal Prince Syrius Fortune of Rosenhip had during his twin sister's "meet the suitors" ball, was to stay quiet and out of the way. His sister's event had been in the planning for five years, and he and his loving father had already agreed trying to seek a wedding contract for himself was not a good idea. Prince Syrius had quirks, and it wasn't as though he needed to open himself up to ridicule from someone else, especially a spouse he would have to get to know. The event was only a week, and being a lot smaller than his older brothers, Syrius was used to not being seen. Until someone saw him. 
    King Mintyn of Marinkaw had been a soldier since he was fifteen years old. He was not impressed to find out the one time of the year he was supposed to be meeting King Fortune to sign their Golden Straits agreement was apparently the one time his friend decided to have a huge event going on.  
    However, his aide told him he had been invited, and it was only one ball. Mintyn could enjoy some good food, network a while, and then leave the following morning once the treaty was signed. That was until he saw a young vision being hassled by an entitled duke. On learning the vision being hassled was his friend's youngest son, Mintyn decided to intervene. It was a nice thing to do. One shortened dance later as Prince Syrius walked away from him after he put his foot in his mouth, Mintyn told his aide to rejiggle his schedule. He had a spouse to woo.   
    This is one of those light stories that my muse weaves sometimes simply to make people smile. There are no deep and meaningful plot lines, just a bit fun between two men who look so unsuited for each other on the surface of things, but their pairing proves opposites do attract and stay together. It is in the same universe as the Infidelity Clause but is totally standalone. Watch for cameo appearances by a cupcake eating dragon, an episode of prince throwing, and potato cuffs.

  • Stonewall Jackson’s Most Famous Battles: The History of the Confederate General’s Legendary Victories - cover

    Stonewall Jackson’s Most Famous...

    Confederate general Thomas Jonathan Jackson had been a virtual unknown upon his arrival at the front line of First Bull Run, but by the spring of 1862, thanks to his actions at that battle, “Stonewall” was already becoming known across the battlefields. Ultimately, it would be the Valley Campaign of 1862 that made him a legend.  
    	In the early months of 1862, Jackson was given command of an army numbering about 17,000 in the Shenandoah Valley. His task was daunting. The loss at Bull Run prompted a changing of the guard, with George B. McClellan, the “Young Napoleon”, put in charge of reorganizing and leading the Army of the Potomac. That spring, the Army of the Potomac conducted an ambitious amphibious invasion of Virginia’s Peninsula, circumventing the Confederate defenses to the north of Richmond by attacking Richmond from the southeast. 	General Johnston’s outnumbered army headed toward Richmond to confront McClellan, but the Union still had three armies totaling another 50,000 around the Shenandoah Valley, which represented a threat to Richmond from the north. It was these armies that Jackson would be tasked with stopping.  
    	Jackson would go on to lead his undermanned army through what military strategists and historians consider the most incredible campaign of the Civil War. From late March to early June, Jackson kept all three Union armies bottled up and separated from each other in the Shenandoah Valley by marching up and down the Valley about 650 miles in 50 days, earning his army the nickname “foot cavalry.”  
    Although Jackson is revered today as an almost ideal commander, a lot of his subordinates bristled under his leadership, believing not only that he asked too much but that he was too strict.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Most people walk through life using instinct, emotion and survival patterns they never consciously chose. They repeat the same loops, fall into the same reactions and live inside identities built from old experiences rather than future possibilities. The Clarity Codes was written to change that. 
    This book reveals the psychological operating system behind your mind-the unseen structures, emotional algorithms and behavioural patterns that shape how you think, feel, act and evolve. Instead of motivational clichés, you get real mechanisms: how the brain forms loops, how emotions hijack logic, how habits embed into identity, how trauma becomes a pattern and how the mind can be retrained with precision. 
    Across its chapters, you’ll learn how to calm mental noise, regulate emotional floods, dissolve cognitive distortions, stop self-sabotage, rewire patterns, break cycles of avoidance and build a self-image that naturally creates better choices. Each concept comes with simple, direct tools you can use immediately-no jargon, no fluff, just clarity. 
    The book now includes three practical Clarity Protocols designed for different timeframes: a 30-minute reset, a 3-hour reset and a 3-week transformation plan, so you can apply the principles in the way that fits your life. 
    You will learn how to: 
    • interrupt overthinking without fighting thoughts 
    • dissolve anxiety loops using cognitive and physical resets 
    • stop emotional spirals before they take over 
    • shift identity through small, repeatable actions 
    • build habits that stick because they match who you are becoming 
    • navigate relationships with clarity instead of reaction 
    • process experiences without being overwhelmed 
    • design your future self with intention rather than hope 
    By the end, you will gain something most people never receive: a clear internal map for being human.
