Broken Stars (Universe on Fire Book 1)
by Ivan Kal
Genre: Science Fiction
FREE for a limited time
They told us “No.”
If they had taken the time to learn about us, to truly understand what it was that made us human, they would’ve known that that had been their greatest mistake.
Sixty-seven years ago the Qash’vo’tar conquered Earth. They had judged humanity as dangerous and unworthy of joining the other races among the stars. Ever since then, the aliens had ruled from above, keeping humanity from even thinking about reaching for the stars. The Qash’vo’tar did not care what humanity did on the ground, as long as they didn’t attempt to build anything that could get them to the stars. Outmatched in every way and not willing to accept the cost of fighting back, the United Earth gave up ever again reaching beyond the boundary of Earth’s sky.
In its isolation, humanity turned its eyes from the sky and pointed them to the ground. Instead of the stars, humanity explored the oceans, burrowed deep underground, and broadened its understanding of laws of physics. Until finally they could take no more. In secret the United Earth’s best scientists attempted to find a way out. They experimented, and in a single moment changed the fate of humanity. Accidentally, they broke through someplace else, created a breach in space-time. Deep underground, they created a portal to another universe.
They made a breach to a universe where there was magic. This new universe changed them, changed their own universe. This one accident gave them a new weapon against the Qash’vo’tar. A weapon that the aliens had no knowledge of. It gave humanity magic. And they studied it, integrated it with their technology, and they waited for the right time to strike back against their alien overlords.
And now, sixty-seven years after they had been conquered, it was time for humanity to show the Qash’vo’tar that they had been right to fear humanity. Now was the time for humanity to reclaim its world and carve a place for Earth among the stars.
Broken Stars is the first book in the Universe on Fire series, an epic science fiction series with some fantasy elements. It follows humanity as it attempts to make a place for itself in a hostile galaxy.

The Windsor Story: An intimate portrait of the Duke & Duchess of Windsor
by Charles J. V. Murphy, J. Bryan III
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs
FREE for a limited time
When King Edward VIII gave up the throne for Mrs Simpson in 1934, the whole world was gripped.
American Wallis Simpson was twice divorced – and the Royal Family would not countenance a divorcee as Queen. So, Edward took the monumental decision to abdicate. Given the title Duke and Duchess of Windsor, the couple embarked on a life of exile. Never had a man given up so much: not just the throne, but sovereignty over the British Empire as well.
Charles Murphy and Joe Bryan were successful, well-connected American journalists, who interviewed the Duke and Duchess and formed friendships with them. Murphy was commissioned by Life magazine to write the Duke’s memoir – an arduous task due to Edward’s inability to focus. He was then engaged by the Duchess to write her story – a project which also became fraught with difficulty and was completed in the end by another writer.
The two journalists, fed up with the couple’s capriciousness, laziness, avarice and narcissism, then got together to tell the truth about the Windsors’ ill-fated union. They reveal the sad fact that, despite the Duke’s huge sacrifice, Wallis never really loved him. Trapped into marriage by Edward’s obsessive devotion she took to taunting and bullying him, even embarking on a bizarre affair of sorts with gay millionaire playboy Jimmy Donahue. Their association with Hitler is documented, as well as the Duke’s dismal tenure as Governor of the Bahamas. Unable to succeed at any role offered, they were doomed to a life of endless partying.
As confidants of the couple, Murphy and Bryan had unique access. Their analysis of the Duke and Duchess comes from first-hand knowledge of both, as well as personal acquaintance with many of their circle. Detailed, meticulous, but also highly entertaining. Originally published in 1979, this remains the definitive account of the Windsor story and a fascinating inside picture of the British Royal Family.
