BARON FIVE "This invasion is not being fought with vast armadas of warships or ruthless armies but on a genetic warfront." Baron Five aka Margus Von Kalev is a 14th century Estonian aristocrat who stumbled into blaster crossfire between alien forces. To atone for nearly destroying him, his decimated body was re-engineered by the benevolent Dagon. These alien law enforcers have entrusted him as their agent on Earth combating the rouge clan the Kuri. He is joined in this struggle by his alien liaison Tartu who has been consigned into the form of a wild boar, the young psychic Phoebe Tuckett, and Seattle homicide detective Keisha Walker. It is a bit of CSI meets Sci Fi as they uncover clues and conspiracies leading to the evil Sarvik's plans for genetic invasion.
Baron de Vastey and the Origins of Black Atlantic Humanism
Focusing on the influential life and works of the Haitian political writer and statesman, Baron de Vastey (1781-1820), in this book Marlene L. Daut examines the legacy of Vastey’s extensive writings as a form of what she calls black Atlantic humanism, a discourse devoted to attacking the enlightenment foundations of colonialism. Daut argues that Vastey, the most important secretary of Haiti’s King Henry Christophe, was a pioneer in a tradition of deconstructing colonial racism and colonial slavery that is much more closely associated with twentieth-century writers like W.E.B. Du Bois, Frantz Fanon, and Aimé Césaire. By expertly forging exciting new historical and theoretical connections among Vastey and these later twentieth-century writers, as well as eighteenth- and nineteenth-century black Atlantic authors, such as Phillis Wheatley, Olaudah Equiano, William Wells Brown, and Harriet Jacobs, Daut proves that any understanding of the genesis of Afro-diasporic thought must include Haiti’s Baron de Vastey.

Baron of Broad Street chronicles the polarized worlds of the Lagos impoverished and the affluent, living side-by-side, yet a world apart. Disun and Ige are young boys growing up within the squeeze and squalor of Makoko. As they sit on the banks of the Lagos Lagoon, they contemplate life on the other side of town, the exclusive district of the Metropolis covering Ikoyi, Victoria Island, and, Broad Street that mysterious area, so distant, yet so close. Disun is the optimistic of the duo, resolute in his faith in a fair chance at success in Lagos, his ordinary background notwithstanding. Ige, on the other hand held by a vibrant, radical mind, entrenches himself in the firm belief that the only reliable choices open to them were illicit. The road to realizing this ambition is lined with real dangers. Would they prevail? And if indeed they would, what prices are there to be paid...and, perhaps, more importantly, of what texture would their residual soul be?
