Reeve Joss is struggling to defend a country ravaged by the assaults of twin armies. His men now patrol a land of burning villages and homeless refugees as Joss tries to separate traitor from friend. The Reeve's thoughts are also plagued by the intriguing Zubaidit, pleasure-giver, spy and temple-trained assassin. But Zubaidit is focused on a dangerous mission, her target being warped Guardian Lord Radas. His death would leave the invading militia in chaos, but the old tales tell truly of the Guardians' immortality - and of the powers they now wield to twist the hearts of men. Joss's nights are also troubled, disturbed by dreams of Marit. His lost love has returned from death to become a feared Guardian herself, but Marit rejected the corrupt temptations they offered. She now seeks others of her kind, praying some are yet uncontaminated by the blight on the land - and have the will to fight it.

The ""Tower of London"" explores the rich and complex history of this iconic structure, delving into its evolution from a symbol of Norman dominance after the Norman Conquest to its multifaceted roles as a royal palace, prison, armory, and treasury. It highlights the tower's central place in English History and British History as it examines the stories of both famous figures, like Anne Boleyn and Sir Walter Raleigh who were imprisoned within its walls, and the countless others who shaped its legacy. The book uniquely presents the Tower not merely as a static monument but as a dynamic reflection of England's changing identity. Intriguing facts include its function as a menagerie, housing exotic animals, and its pivotal role in safeguarding the Crown Jewels. The book unfolds chronologically and thematically, tracing the Tower's foundational history, its use as a prison and execution site, and the enduring significance of the Crown Jewels. Through meticulous research and accessible writing, ""Tower of London"" offers a balanced portrayal of this historical landmark. It avoids romanticized narratives, focusing instead on the complex interplay of power, politics, and cultural memory, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in World History, Royal History, Castles, and the stories behind iconic landmarks.

Theodor Fontane (1819-98), widely regarded as Germany's most significant novelist between Goethe and Thomas Mann, pioneered the German novel of manners and upper-class society, following a trend in European fiction of the period. The Stechlin is Fontane's last book and his political testament. Like Effi Briest, his great work on the place of women in Bismarck's empire, it is set at the apex of the Wilhelmine era, both in Berlin and on the estate of a Prussian Junker on the shores of Lake Stechlin. It is a significant historical and cultural document, probably the finest chronicle of the life style of the German upper classes in the late nineteenth century; Fontane portrays the best in the life and ways of the passing Prussian aristocrats, while describing his hopes for the future of Germany and its nobility, which were never to be fully realized. Although this novel has been translated into many languages, it has never before been available in English; this edition thus fills an important gap in the significant works of European literature accessible to English readers.
