A millennia-old prophecy was given when the Forbidden Ones were driven from Achar. And now, the Acharites witness its manifestation: Achar is under attack by an evil lord from the North, Gorgreal--his ice demons strike from the sky and kill hundreds of brave warriors in the blink of an eye. All Acharites believe the end is near. One young woman, Faraday, betrothed of Duke Borneheld, learns that all she has been told about her people's history is untrue. While fleeing to safety from the dangerous land, Faraday, rides with Axis, legendary leader of the Axe-Wielders--and hated half-brother of Borneheld--and a man Faraday secretly loves although it would be death to admit it. She embarks on a journey, which will change her life forever, in search of the true nature of her people. This grand and heroic story tells the tale of one woman's plight to learn the truth of her people and change their hearts and their minds forever. She fights against oppressive forces to share this reality and will not desist until everyone knows. . . . .

The 78th Division was raised in 1942 specifically for the North African invasion. From the time that the Division landed at Algiers there were to be few easy days, and the campaigning through Tunisia, Sicily and Italy was a tale of bitterly fought actions in a harsh terrain against a skilful enemy. In its first year of action alone, the 78th Division suffered 10,000 casualties. Longstop Hill, Centuripe, Termoli, Cassino, the Gustav Line, the Argenta Gap; there was always one more river to cross, another defended mountain line to breach. Ken Ford brings out how quickly the Division developed its fighting power and shows how success resulted from an all-arms effort by infantry, armour, artillery, transport, and especially engineers. Yet it is the resilience and sacrifice of now vanished County infantry regiments that rightly form the core of the book. Using first hand accounts of men who actually fought with the 78th Division, and fully illustrated with photographs and maps, this is a fitting tribute to the soldiers of the Battleaxe Division.

The term battleaxe has been used since 1910 when it implied a closely defined type: elderly, resentful, vociferous and certainly no beauty. Here Christine Hamilton presents a banquet of belligerent British belles who, for one reason or another, exude the indomitable spirit that is the hallmark of the battleaxe, and yet who defy that description. Her portraits are admiring and affectionate - a celebration of that special quality that stands certain women apart. The star-studded cast includes Dame Barbara Cartland who when asked if she thought class barriers had broken down, retorted 'Of course they have. If they hadn't, someone like you wouldn't have been interviewing someone like me'; Barbara Woodhouse, famous for her strict approach to both dogs and owners, who once said of the royal Corgis 'I have seen them on a station platform exhibiting dreadful impatience'; no-nonsense Claire Raynor who said of herself 'I'm five foot nine and built like a bus. What can I do about it? Bugger all.' and Dame Irene Ward who on a parliamentary delegation to Nazi Germany in 1936 is said to have exclaimed in stentorian tones to Hitler 'What absolute bosh you are talking '
