Detroit, 1929. The city hums with jazz, ambition, and quiet despair as the Great Depression looms. Amid the smoke and speakeasies, Delilah Waters stands out-a woman too clever, too opinionated, and far too independent for her time. She works hard, keeps her chin up, and hides her loneliness behind sharp wit and red lipstick. But the world keeps reminding her that a woman alone is a woman unfinished. Then she meets Vincent Vanhorne-a man of impossible charm and haunting secrets. With eyes like midnight glass and a voice that seems to hum through her veins, he awakens something in Delilah she can't explain... and soon can't resist. When passion turns to hunger and life itself takes on a darker hue, Delilah is reborn-powerful, untamed, and thirsting for more than blood. As Detroit's glittering fa ade begins to crack, Delilah must navigate a new existence where love is eternal, but freedom always comes at a cost. Is Vincent her salvation-or the end of everything she thought she was? Atmospheric, romantic, and unapologetically gothic, this debut novel explores what it means to claim your own power in a world built to contain you. A story of transformation, forbidden love, and the intoxicating pull between desire and destruction, it asks one timeless question: If immortality were offered at the cost of your independence, would you take it?

The Children of the Earth that Was

The Children of the Earth that Was

C R Endacott

World's End Book Publishing

pokkari
In the not so distant future, the earth has been colonized by mythical minotaurs, an alien race. With their superior technology they have completely conquered the earth and the humans they view as lesser animals. Creating vast networks of farms, the aliens raise humans for food. Zee is a young woman living in a corral as one of the heifers. Her sole purpose in life is to give birth to children who are raised and butchered for food. However, on the day she is to be inseminated, she injures the bullaman (the man who, for all intents and purposes, rapes to impregnate the heifers) and is taken out of the corral to be killed. However, one of the minotaur Overseer's children takes Zee to be her pet. In their house, Zee learns their language. After five years, she escapes to live with the free humans who survive in colonies underground. This work is a post-colonial novel addressing themes such as: identity, dislocation, oppression, dominance, and colonization. There are other themes relating to feminism. As well, the not so subtle allegorical significance of the work, is a look into our very real capacity to eat meat from animals who are sentient. Excerpt] I had never actually seen a dead body. Her gaunt skin looked leathery and stretched over her bones. Her eyes were dark, with black circles around them. At first, the other women stopped by to gawk at the dead woman, partly because none of us actually looked like her. I know I didn't. My skin was a nice pink and there was meat and muscle under it. When I pinched the skin on the back of my hand, it bounced back into place instantly. "Back away," a woman's voice commanded. Deborah, our leader, our teacher. She was older than us, like all our teachers had been. But her tone was always so stern. Women in our corral whispered that the teachers weren't supposed to be so disagreeable, and that Deborah was the exception, not the rule. Her hair was wispy and thinning, and I had no idea how old she was; I didn't care. Although, she was not so old that they had sent her to pasture, so to speak. I listened to her when I had to.

The Herero Wind

The Herero Wind

C R Colin

Christopher Ronald Colin
2025
pokkari
The Herero Wind is a sweeping and deeply felt work of historical fiction, set during the 1904 Herero genocide in German South West Africa, today known as Namibia. With an eye for human courage and a storyteller's instinct for truth, it brings to life one of the earliest genocides of the twentieth century and the people who fought to survive it. When Lieutenant General Lothar von Trotha sends out his extermination order, the Herero are driven across dry and unforgiving country where heat, thirst and hunger wait for them like patient hunters. Among those forced into flight is Kohepa, an experienced scout carrying a forbidden message that may offer a spark of hope. He is joined by his young brother who has not yet learned the full cost of survival, a missionary's daughter who chooses mercy over fear, and companions who find strength in one another when the world around them begins to collapse. The novel follows their journey through a landscape of vast skies, shifting ground and arid plains that hold both danger and memory. The land becomes a quiet presence that tests each character in ways they never expected and reminds them of what must be carried forward. Written with emotional honesty and a strong sense of place, The Herero Wind is suited to readers who are drawn to Namibia historical fiction, survival historical fiction, German colonial fiction and colonial Africa novels. It is a story about endurance, loyalty and the will to remain human when history turns violent. Through vivid detail and a cast of memorable voices, it pays tribute to those who refused to disappear and to the stories that move with the wind across the interior of South West Africa.

The Household and the War for the Cosmos

The Household and the War for the Cosmos

C R Wiley; Nancy Pearcey

Canon Press
2019
pokkari
Your household is not just a shelter from a war zone; it is the command center from where you launch your attacks. It's this vision of the world, with the Christian family at the heart, that modern parents desperately need to recover. In this truly original book, C.R. Wiley shows that, although the family has become dislocated and pushed to the side by modern society, this wasn't always the case. At one time, the world was not seen as a random assortment of time and matter, but as an ordered whole-as a Cosmos. Because people saw themselves as part of an ordered whole, they also believed that they had obligations to the people around them. They were not just autonomous individuals, but members of households with unique duties to past and future generations. Words like "piety" and "religion" did not refer to what you did in your quiet time, but were more like the seemingly obsolete values of "duty" and "honor." C.R. Wiley illustrates these ancient values through the Roman Aeneas, and shows how this founding myth inspired people to things we need. However, he also shows how this myth failed and it was succeeded by a greater myth-the myth of Abraham and His God's war for the cosmos.
