Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Not much was expected from the Orange basketball team this particular year.A random looking assortment of miscellaneous kids;they were not big, they were not fast, they were not strong.There was nothing about the sight of them in their uniforms to say that this would be an especially noteworthy team.And, to complicate things further, they had been bumped up a class, to play every night against much larger schools, with more, bigger, and better athletes.The experts had picked them to finish dead last in their district.They were not expected to win a single game.Accordingly, they had been slated to play in everyone's homecoming game.The first time they walked on the floor to warm up, the other team laughed.But, there is a reason we actually play the games.We can measure the players physically, but there is, as yet, no way to measure heart and desire.There is no way to quantify the will to win.Every night, the scoreboard starts at 0-0;and the day will be what you make it.Every season is special.Every team is special.But, this team and this season.was magical.And when they walked off the floor at the end of their last game.No one was laughing.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The year is 1069. The Norman invaders are stealing the land of the English people, building castles to subdue them and relentlessly making a once free people into serfs. But the English will not submit. Armed resistance flares across the land. Yet, to become effective, it needs a leader who can unite the nation.That leader is Edgar Atheling, heir of Alfred the Great, a young man born to be king.Edgar knows he must defeat William the Conqueror, a ruthless leader and formidable foe. But can a 17 year old boy with an ill-equipped army challenge the Conqueror for his birthright, the throne of England? Edgar's one hope of victory is to forge an alliance with England's ancient Viking enemies and pray that the rest of his people rise up in support.Wasteland tells how the agony of war shapes and matures Edgar and how he learns to inspire loyalty from his allies and respect even from his enemies.Triumph and Catastrophe is book 2 of 'The Lost King' series. It is a fast-moving story of how a young boy comes of age in a time of victory, betrayal and revenge.Every bit as good as its prequel, The Flame of Resistance. Don't be put off if you don't like history. This story will appeal to anyone, whether interested in history or not. I heartily recommend this very readable and enjoyable journey into the England's history and look forward with great anticipation to the next volume in the series.…
