Eleven-year-old Christine Goldsmith wakes from a prophetic nightmare where she witnessed her mother and father hurtle to their deaths in a plane crash. The dream was all too true in reality. After her parents death, Walter Goldsmith, Christines great uncle, a high priest and wizard of the House of Avalon, and Claudia, his niece, also a high priestess, arrive in Saint Paul, Minnesota, to take charge of the orphaned Christine and her troubled fourteen-year-old brother, Marcus. Christine and Marcus are oddly gifted children. Her father, having renounced his ancient priestly heritage, had wanted to live a normal life, free from the Old Ways of his ancestors. But the childrens heritage will not stay hidden. As soon as the children arrive at the Goldsmith families manor in Pennsylvania, all sorts of difficulties arise. Exposed to dark magic-infused grimoires, Marcus is consumed by a lust for power and hatred for his sister. His gifts turn to evil. Over the next year, ancient wizardry and secret mystery school lessons deeply affect Christine. Navigating the complexities of her new life as a young teenager, Christine crosses a gateway into this ancient mystic world, filled with tragedy, anguish, betrayal, and self-discovery, healing her wounded spirit in the process. She is initiated and trained to be a high priestess and leader of her people by finding the empowerment and light within herself to fend off her brothers distorted magical ambitions.

The saga of a man determined to build a civilization of peace and justice in a land devastated by war in an epic and brutal adventure that balances harsh realism with bitter doses of magic.
First ever narrative history of the famous aero engine that powered the Spitfire, Hurricane, Lancaster, Mosquito and Mustang, the aircraft that made the difference between victory and defeat at critical moments in the Second World War - the Battle of Britain and the allied aerial offensive against Germany.
Four years ago, somebody pinched perhaps the most valuable book in existence. Merlin’s personal grimoire. And the price they’re offering for its return is the kind we can’t refuse, so it’s Ves and Jay on the case. Except that there aren’t any clues. Seriously, not even a little one. Nothing’s going to solve this case but a Vesper-patented Crazy Plan, and it had better be a good one, for complications are sprouting like daisies. At least it’s a straightforward mission. There’s no earthly way this one’s going to turn my entire life upside down... right?
A man comes to Pembrose to visit Merlin's cave, but Minerva wonders if it is truly the sorcerer's cave.
War has come to Britain. The High King Ambrose is too old and infirmed to continue his duties, leaving men to wonder who will succeed him. Will it be the Christian, Gorlois, Duke of Cornewall, or will it be the relentless tyrant, Lot of the Orkneys? There is a third choice in the Welshman, Uther, a follower of the Old Religion with the power of the Druids behind him, but it seems civil war cannot be avoided. As the Britons prepare for the inevitable, an ancient darkness creeps into the land and threatens to exterminate the Druids once and for all. The future of the Old Religion and Britain itself rests in the hands of a True King, prophesied to rise and become the Pendragon, and a young man named Galahad, Prince of Lodecran and apprentice of the great Taliesin. Galahad is called to the Unseen Vale to take up the robes of a Druid, destined to one day become the Last Merlin, but only if he can survive the greatest trials Britain has ever known...
The Royal Navy invented the fast motor torpedo boat during the First World War, and used it and other small coastal craft to great effect during the Second. This book tells the dramatic story of British coastal forces, both offensive and defensive, in both World Wars and beyond. In the Second World War, British coastal forces fought a desperate battle to control the narrow seas, particularly the Channel and the North Sea, and took the war to the coasts of German-occupied Europe, fighting where larger warships could not be risked. They also made a significant contribution to victory in the Mediterranean, but it was primarily warfare in home waters that shaped wartime British Coastal Forces and left lessons for postwar development. In this book, Norman Friedman uniquely connects the technical story of the coastal craft and their weapons and other innovations with the way they fought. In both world wars much of the technology was at the edge of what was feasible at the time. Boats incorporated considerable British innovation and also benefited from important US contributions, particularly in supplying high-powered engines during World War II. In contrast with larger warships, British coastal forces craft were essentially shaped by a few builders, and their part in the story is given full credit. They also built a large number of broadly similar craft for air-sea rescue, and for completeness these are described in an appendix. This fascinating, dramatic story is also relevant to modern naval thinkers concerned with gaining or denying access to hostile shores. The technology has changed but the underlying realities have not. This book includes an extensive account of how coastal forces supported the biggest European example of seizing a defended shore, the Normandy invasion. That was by far the largest single British coastal forces operation, demanding a wide range of innovations to make it possible. Like other books in this series, this one is based very heavily on contemporary official material, much of which has not been used previously – like the extensive reports of US naval observers, who were allowed wide access to the Royal Navy as early as 1940. Combined with published memoirs, these sources offer a much more complete picture than has previously appeared of how Coastal Forces fought and of the way in which various pressures, both operational and industrial, shaped them.
