Paperback. Condition: As New. INSCRIPTION FROM DANIE BOTHA on title page; As New; For the new Arfican country Zambia, 1964 heralds joyous and turbulent time: celebration of its independence from Britain. 13-year-old Rianna and 10-year-old Lukas and Anthony, live an idyllic life on Madzi Moyo - a tucked-away Mission station. That changes when the trio stumbles upon two hidden AK-47s and is caught by Mavuto, the guns' owner, a staunch African nationalist. He abducts them on the spot: afraid they will telltale and jeopardize his private plan to ensure his country's independence. Over the course of a single night and morning, a race and rescue mission ensues, which as the hours pass, becomes more violent and out-of-control. Inscribed by Author(s).…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A calling can consume.>About the Author>Interview with the AuthorQ - What makes the Be Silent series unique A - Several things. It is a mini-series, but the books can be read as stand-alone novels. Be Good (a novella), is the prequel to the novel Be Silent. The third and final book in this series is scheduled for Spring next year. I wanted to create novels that reflect and paint images of the places and people I grew up with in Africa or came in contact with or read about but never had the opportunity to meet. (Although, keep in mind-the stories are all made up.)In fiction, I read and enjoy different genres-from literary to contemporary to historical fiction. What best describes this series is, a 20th-century historical action adventure. Be Good and Be Silent are indeed mixtures of many genres, which bring homage to the complex nature of the emancipation of the Southern African region and its peoples, following centuries of colonialization, ethnic conflict, and political turmoil.Q - Is there any particular order to read the books A - No. I first wrote be Silent, although Be Good takes place several years earlier. But you will still enjoy Be Good, even if you first read Be Silent.Q - Why should readers bother with this mini-series >Thank you for reading.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Being worried is what Maxime does best.At sixty-four-and-a-half, Maxime Bastien Baumann wants to retire more than anything else, but he can't. He's too worried. He's not a hypochondriac; he's just anally retentive. And obsessive-compulsive. And constantly afraid of being late. His life is structured and lived by a set of rules: two full pages if he writes them down, double-spaced.For Maxime, being late is never a bloody option.As his life with his wife of thirty-seven years and their two sons implodes, Maxime realizes his 'life rules' desperately need an overhaul. Staggering through setback after setback, Maxime must learn to replace worry with confidence and flexibility, stop seeing others as schmucks, reconcile with his family, and learn that it will all come at a great personal cost.About the AuthorDanie Botha was born in Zambia. He completed his school education and medical training in South Africa. He lives in Canada.Interview with the AuthorQ - What makes Maxime a unique book A - Several things. Maxime takes a tongue in the cheek look at growing older. It is an offbeat romance. Maxime appears on the surface to be only about a hapless, anally retentive eccentric. It is more. In spite of the story's satirical look at family life, health, and illness, it soon confronts the issue of how far we are willing to go to reconcile, grow as individuals, and survive the storms of life. Q - Why should readers bother reading this book A - Readers who enjoy humor and satire and contemporary fiction who enjoyed reading A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman, The 100-year-old man who climbed out the window and disappeared by Jonas Jonasson, The Little Old Lady Who Broke All The Rules by Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg and The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion, should also enjoy reading Maxime. Thank you for reading!

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Despite her friends repeated warnings-and even hints that he may be in the IRA-Emilee falls for Connor when he saves her life in a kayaking accident. The two marry and have a daughter, Caitlynn Aine. On the child's third birthday, daughter and father disappear, leaving only an abandoned car and a small red jacket behind.Decades pass-until Emilee receives a handwritten letter from her presumed-dead former husband.An Unfamiliar Kindness asks the unanswerable question: how much does love cost Interview with the Author Q - What makes the An Unfamiliar Kindness series unique A - Several things. It is a two-part mini-series, but the books can be read as stand-alone novels. The second book in this series is scheduled for release in late 2019. I wanted to create novels that reflect and paint images of the places and people we've all read about but have never met. I grew up in Africa and felt it would be appropriate to let the protagonist journey from Cape Town to Southampton by steamliner. The history behind the WLM and the IRA had always intrigued me. I had to write a story about the 1970s England! In fiction, I read and enjoy different genres-from literary to contemporary to historical fiction. What best describes this series is 20th-century historical fiction or modern historical fiction. An Unfamiliar Kindness is also an atypical romance. Q - Is there any particular order to read the books A - Yes and no. Both will be stand-alone novels but once book two is released, it will make sense then to first read An Unfamiliar Kindness. The working title for book two is, An Unfamiliar Grace. Q - Why should readers bother with this mini-series A - Readers who enjoy more modern (post-WW II) historical fiction, interspersed with immersion into the 1970s England and Ireland, spiced with romance and pressing social and political issues of the day, will enjoy the books. Thank you for reading!
