**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
New Life, New World, New Problems

Alexandria Duvalier’s new life on the magical world of Meredith takes a shattering twist when her father, the Duke of Wheel, pledges her hand in marriage to the cruel lord, Rodric Regret. Desperate to escape his clutches, Alex flees the city with the help of her friend, Tell Tollet, a handsome lieutenant in the city guard. But their freedom is short-lived when Rodric’s brutal brother, Stefan, joins in the pursuit.

Hotheaded Prince Tal, heir to the throne of Meredith, has but one goal: kill the Dark Queen and destroy the Veil, the enchanted barrier which has ensnared generations of his people. He discovers a breach in the magical wall and leads an army through, bent on completing his mission.

When an unusual and potent magic calls to him, he follows its trail back to Alex. Thrown together by circumstances and chased across the wilderness by the ruthless Lord Stefan, Tal and Alex are drawn to each other by the greatest magic of all—love. Now they just need to stay alive . . .

Well written with no trace of sparkly vampires, I'm sold. Kidding, it's a whole different genre.

This spy thriller was worth the read.

The characters were memorable and well developed.

The plot was solid and no holes presented themselves.

The story was well executed and it provided a nice escape.

A good film, with some good acting talent. A tale of 2 people that meet and start an affiar to escape their normal everyday lives. Although the sub plot of a child abuser being released back into their community didn't really fit in with the rest of the film.

Escape from space
A fresh take on an old story.

A renegade CIA agent, the distant future and a corrupt government.

After being betrayed by his own government and sentenced to 30 years in cryogenic chamber 50 miles outside the earths atmosphere, our Agent is offered a way out...a suicide mission to the space prison and rescue the presidents daughter from a criminal rebellion that have taken control of the prison.

This to me is a 3rd part to kurt Russell's escape from series and I highly recommend it to any fans of them.

Great FX, great story, brilliant acting and some edgey twists.
