The Iron Fortress: Based on The Incredible True Story of WWI Michael Thomas
The incredible story of a British heavy tank trapped before the German trenches. For three days her crew fight against the might of the German Army.
The Allies launch a massive offensive on the Western front, and Captain Richardson, a battlefield veteran of the trenches leads four heavy tanks on a brazen assault through no-man’s-land. It's an attack that could shatter the German defences and create an opening for Allied soldiers to pour through and hasten the end of the war.
One tank after another is destroyed, until just one remains. But in the last moments of battle they’re trapped directly in front of the German front line. The crew can neither advance nor retreat as the tank sinks deeper into the mud, all while shells and bullets rain down all around it.

Kindred Intentions
Kindred Intentions Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
24 hours. 2 people. 1 target.
It was 10 a.m. when undercover agent Amelia Jennings arrived at the law firm Goldberg & Associates for a job interview. Her mission was to investigate a series of murders involving some well-known lawyers in the City. Her target, an elusive hired killer who had been of interest to the police for months.
But her plan is doomed to fall apart before it even starts.
In less than twenty-four hours Amelia will be the prey in a man hunt and her destiny will become entwined with Mike Connor’s.
Their intentions, apparently similar, may prove to be opposite, but the affinity binding them goes beyond what they think they know about each other.
One day to survive. One day to let go of the past.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.
ARMAGEDDON OF CASCADIA
ARMAGEDDON OF CASCADIA Martin E. Silenus
The world watched in horror at the tragedy and devastation of the 2004 Earthquake and Tsunami that devastated Phuket, Banda Aceh in Sumatra, Thailand, Siri Lanka and Indonesia killing 230,000 people. Graphic images of coastal coves covered in drowned bodies. More recently the world again was transfixed as it watched the 2011 Japan Earthquake and Tsunami kill 20,000 men, women and children. The absolute destruction of everything reaching inland for 10 kilometers.
Even given these graphic examples no one was prepared for the under sea fault rupture and the Mega Tsunami which destroyed the coastal areas of Southern British Columbia, Canada and the North Western coastal area of the USA, the area called Cascadia.

Vietnam was Hell, and this story brings readers into the heart of the jungle to experience what our brave men in uniform endured during that horrific eight - year - old conflict.
Martin E. Silenus shares his humorous essays about what the way life should be for a hard working male. Not too long, not too short, and definitely entertaining. Reading this is like having a beer and venting with your buddies. Ah, good times!
This sounds like the kind of story that belongs on the big screen because upheavals like these are visually amazing. That's why I want to read it. I want to see if it's a brain workout for the imagination to add those visuals.
This series looks so cool! It may be the next series I didn't realize I needed in my life. Looking forward to checking it out.
I love the cover and title. Cool.
