Overthrow Stories

He leaned in so close I could feel his breath against my skin, could see every detail of his face, the intensity behind his eyes, the faint scar above his brow. My heart pounded as he closed the last of the distance between us. "You have a choice," he said, his voice cold as steel. "Do as I say and survive. Or don't." **** Lorien Robinson was abandoned on a doorstep the night her kingdom burned. She doesn't remember any of it. For seventeen years, she's been an ordinary girl with an ordinary life, raised by parents who loved her without question and asked for nothing in return. That ends the night a stranger calls her princess. Dragged into a truth she never asked for, Lorien learns she is the last heir of Eldrid, a kingdom reduced to ash by a man who has hunted her since the day she was born, and the only living piece of a prophecy that names her his end. Caught between the danger closing in and a boy who seems to know exactly who she is before she does, Lorien's wary suspicion shifts into something far more dangerous, even as every secret he keeps puts her further in his debt. But Eldrid's enemy has not forgotten the prophecy. And he is done waiting. Lorien must decide how far she'll go to survive the truth of who she is, before the past she never knew catches up to the future she hasn't chosen yet.

Who Wants to Be President? Alex Andelonard What if thoughts could overthrow a dictator? What if fire can cleanse the corruption? What if a revolution could start with a single photograph? The story is about how people can try to overthrow a dictator in a rather unusual, unconventional way. After all, any idea manifests itself at a certain and designated time. Ideas - whose time has come - have enormous power. The book (Who Wants to Be President?) tells the story of Alexei Petrovich, a man who accidentally finds himself in a complex web of political intrigue and personal vendetta. When his grandson Anton is unfairly accused of plotting against the government, Alexei Petrovich must fight against his country's authoritarian, corrupt political system in the most unusual ways. To clear his name, reveal the truth, and secure the release of his grandson. The book paints a vivid picture of a society in which corruption runs deep, democratic values are completely suppressed, the population is cornered by harsh anti-people laws, and the desire for power trumps moral integrity. A compelling story that resonates with today's political climate and questions the invulnerability of dictatorial rulers. People have known and used magic since time immemorial. All magical rituals are based on supernatural, immaterial forces, incomprehensible and therefore not yet recognized by science. Magical and paranormal phenomena and abilities have much in common, since they use forces and factors that cannot be explained scientifically. All living beings and people are not just material bodies. There is something in them other than matter, and therefore they are able to perceive what is beyond the physical world.

Dust. That's what the earth felt like. Dust and ruins of a once triumphant civilisation. Now cast down to live life as clones of one another. The ashes of humanity lay scattered across the now empty plains. From those ashes will emerge a saviour, The Black Sparrows

"Affirmative," Marie says, her voice also robotic. "Sending word to Head Base now." She types a series of numbers into a keypad on the wall near the door and presses her thumb into a scanner. A section of wall opens, a blue light spilling out, steam from the hydraulics white against the gray of this room. Marie and Renae smile and gesture for me to get up. I do so slowly, scared. Anxious. "Go through." Renae assures me, but her robotic voice is counterintuitive. I walk towards the door, stopping on the threshold. "Go. Go teach the children. Spread the Knowledge." Marie smiles grotesquely as she says this, and says knowledge like it means something. Something... bigger than its definition. I go through the door.
