Ponce is thrust into the center of an ancient wager between the same cosmic leaders—Sotare and Perfidious, good versus evil—who hold Lencia’s future in their hands. Through redemption and love, Sotare uses Ponce to try and heal a broken world while Perfidious uses him to destroy it. The love of a woman sent to tempt Ponce will determine the victor and restore—or destroy—Everburn.
More C.S. Lewis than J.R.R. Tolkien, Bunch’s debut is a sweeping epic that strips bare the dangers of conformity and reminds us all that great things can be accomplished with nothing more than devoted friends and unflagging perseverance. His multi-layered allegory has a mythological complexity rarely seen in the fantasy genre, looking far beyond the physical world to expose universal, underlying truths as razor sharp dialogue and well-developed characters drive this rich, detailed world toward its ultimate date with destiny. A riveting journey full of danger, intrigue, and almost unbearable tension, Everburn signals the arrival of an important new voice in the world of fantasy.

There’s a reason why Bobby Loiacono’s boxing name is Cornicello – he’s fortunate in the boxing ring and he’s even more fortunate in his rough neighborhood on Stewart Street. His fortune is at its highest though when he meets Lucy Retter, a student at the nearby University of Massachusetts – Boston. Lucy is everything that Stewart Street is not: innocent, virtuous and kind-hearted. And, as if by fate, the two become engrossed in a romance that could very well be the key to Bobby’s salvation.
But Bobby’s luck turns for the worse when an injury abruptly ends his boxing career. To make matters worse, the local Mafioso, Don Castiglione, recruits Bobby as a made-man in the neighborhood’s Mafia organization. Most of the men in the neighborhood, including Bobby’s father, work for the Castiglione family, so a life in the mob seems to be Bobby’s new destiny. By choosing the mob, Bobby would not only lose Lucy but also his salvation; however, choosing her would put his life and the lives of his family members in grave danger. Bobby is about to fight his greatest bout yet, a fight for love, salvation and honor.

The Triumph of Grace by Kay Marshall Strom

Grace in Africa is a sweeping historical three-part saga of slavery and freedom that takes the reader from an island off the west coast of Africa to Southern plantations and finally on to Canada.
All her life, Grace Winslow, the daughter of a mixed marriage between an English sea captain and an African princess, has been forbidden to ever approach Zulina, the fortress that juts out into the sea off the African coast. In book 1, when she escapes the family compound to avoid an odious betrothal, she is swept up in a slave revolt.
As the truth about Zulina unfolds, Grace begins to grasp the brutality and ferocity of the family business—the capture and trade of slaves. Held for ransom, viciously maimed by a runaway slave, and threatened with death, Grace is finally jerked into reality when her parents leave her to die rather than negotiate with the slaves. Grace sympathizes with the plight of the captives, and she is genuinely moved by the African Cabeto’s passion, determination, and willingness to sacrifice anything, including his own life, for his people’s freedom.
With much of the island in flames, and the slaves freed, Grace is abandoned by her parents. Where shall she go? Her old nursemaid Mama Muco, opens a missionary Bible that she has managed to save and points to Isaiah 61: “The Lord has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound…to give unto them garlands of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning.”
It’s a new beginning for Grace.
