Leon Uris

The Angry Hills

<div><h3>Review</h3><p>“The best storyteller of his generation.” —<em>The Denver Post</em></p><p>“Uris uses history as the raw material for legend.” —<em>Philadelphia Sunday Bulletin</em></p><h3>Product Description</h3><p><strong>A writer moves to Greece just as the Nazis invade, and he soon becomes a pawn in a dangerous game of espionage</strong></p><p>After the death of his wife, Mike Morrison arrives in Greece simply to receive an inheritance and come to grips with his grief. But it’s a bad time to nurse his sorrow—it’s the beginning of World War II, and the German army storms the country before Morrison can leave. He’s soon caught in a complicated cat-and-mouse game with Gestapo officers, British spies, and the Greek resistance movement. At the mercy of strangers, Morrison has to learn who to trust—and who to love.</p><p>Leon Uris’s fast-paced second novel draws from the diaries of an uncle who served in Greece during World War II. It was made into a film in 1959 starring Robert Mitchum.</p><p>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Leon Uris including rare photos from the author’s estate.</p></div><

Armageddon

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22.5px; widows: 1; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Berlin, 1945. Az események középpontjában a náci Németország fővárosáért folytatott csata áll, amely éveken át zajlott a Vörös Hadsereg és a nyugati szövetségesek között. A történet főszereplője Sean O'Sullivan amerikai tiszt, aki gyűlöli a németeket, ám szerelmes lesz Ernestine-be. A férfi életén keresztül ismerhetjük meg a kettéosztott Berlin tragikus történetét és az emberi lélek bonyolultságát. Miközben a szövetségesek azon munkálkodnak, hogy az országot demokratizálják, addig az oroszok a maguk erőszakos módján, rablás, fosztogatás és a lakosság politikai átnevelése révén igyekeznek érvényt szerezni hatalmuknak. A nyugati demokrácia és sztálini kommunizmus ádáz küzdelmében azonban nem könnyű a hétköznapi embernek méltóságát megőrizve új életet kezdeni. Leon Uris a hidegháborús évek morális kérdéseit feszegeti. Hiteles életképei mind amerikai, mind szovjet szemszögből ábrázolják e kor heroikus küzdelmeit.</span><

Battle Cry

<div><h3>Review</h3><p>"Raw, tough, and unvarnished . . .  Don't miss it!"--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p><h3>Product Description</h3><p><em>Battle Cry</em> is the riveting Marine epic by the bestselling author of such classics as <em>Trinity</em> and <em>Exodus</em>. </p><p>Originally published in 1953, Leon Uris's <em>Battle Cry</em> is the raw and exciting story of men at war from a legendary American author. </p><p>This is the story of enlisted men – Marines – at the beginning of World War II. They are a rough–and–ready tangle of guys from America's cities and farms and reservations. Led by a tough veteran sergeant, these soldiers band together to emerge as part of one of the most elite fighting forces in the world. With staggering realism and detail, we follow them into intense battles – Guadalcanal and Tarawa – and through exceptional moments of camaraderie and bravery. <em>Battle Cry</em> does not extol the glories of war, but proves itself to be one of the greatest war stories of all time.</p></div><

Breadcrumbs

<div><h3>Review</h3><p>“This is a lyrical book, a lovely book, and a smart book; it dares us to see stories as spreading more widely, and running more deeply, than we had imagined.” (Gary Schmidt, Newbery Honor-winning author of The Wednesday Wars )<br></p><p>The evocative magical landscape, superbly developed characters (particularly dreamy, self-doubting, determined Hazel and lost Jack), and the piercing sadness of a faltering childhood friendship give this delicately written fantasy wide and lingering appeal. (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review) )<br></p><p>Like a fairy-tale heroine, Hazel traverses the woods without a breadcrumb trail to save a boy who may not want to be saved in this multi-layered, artfully crafted, transforming testament to the power of friendship. (Kirkus Reviews (starred review) )<br></p><p>The creepy fantasyland that Hazel traverses uses bits from other Andersen tales to create a story that...is beautifully written and wholly original. It’s certainly the only children’s fantasy around where Minnesota Twins All-Star catcher Joe Mauer figures into the plot. (Publishers Weekly (starred review) )<br></p><p>“Devastatingly brilliant and beautiful...Ursu has sculpted a rich and poignant adventure that brings readers deep into the mysterious, magical, and sometimes frightening forests of childhood and change. Breadcrumbs is one of those rare novels that turned me on my head then sat on my heart and refused to budge.” (Ingrid Law, Newbery Honor-winning author of Savvy ) </p><h3>Product Description</h3><p>A stunning modern-day fairy tale from acclaimed author Anne Ursu </p><p>Once upon a time, Hazel and Jack were best friends. But that was before he stopped talking to her and disappeared into a forest with a mysterious woman made of ice. Now it's up to Hazel to go in after him. Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen," <em>Breadcrumbs</em> is a story of the struggle to hold on, and the things we leave behind. </p></div><

Cape Cod Noir

<h3>Review</h3><p>"Youthful alienation and despair dominate the 13 stories in Akashic's noir volume devoted to Cape Cod. [It] will satisfy those with a hankering for a taste of the dark side."<br />--<strong><em>Publishers Weekly</em></strong><br /></p><p>"David L. Ulin has put together a malicious collection of short stories that will stay with you long after you return home safe."<br />--<strong><em>The Cult: The Official Chuck Palahniuk Website</em></strong></p><h3>Product Description</h3><p>Includes brand-new stories by Paul Tremblay, Seth Greenland, Ben Greenman, Fred G. Leebron, David L. Ulin, Dana Cameron, Kaylie Jones, and others.</p><p><em>Los Angeles Times</em> book critic David L. Ulin has been vacationing in Cape Cod every summer since he was a boy. He knows the terrain inside and out; enough to identify the squalid underbelly of this allegedly idyllic location. His editing prowess is a perfect match for this fine volume.</p><p><strong>David L. Ulin</strong> is book critic of the <em>Los Angeles Times</em>. From 2005 to 2010, he was the paper's book editor.

The coup

SUMMARY: Nothing in his previous life could have prepared Colonel Hakim Felix Ellellou for his new role as the President of Kush. Neither the French army nor his American university provided a grounding in the subtle skills of revolutionary dictatorship. Still less did they expect him to acquire four wives...<
