BOOK EXCERPT:
Far more than an anthology, FOR KING AND COUNTRY is Brian MacArthur's attempt to write a history of the First World War by drawing on the writings of those who were present at the events they describe. Those writings will be drawn from a broad range of sources: from, most obviously, the officers and men who served on the western front at the Somme and elsewhere, accounts of fear and tedium, horror and occasional joy; also from those were left behind on the home front to wait for news of their loved ones. As well as letters, diary entries and memoir extracts, the book will also include the songs sung in the trenches by the men at the front; there are poems too, the less well known alongside the familiar. The material reproduced will be linked by Brian MacArthur's commentary and notes to create a seamless and movingly immediate narrative of the First World War.

BOOK EXCERPT:
FROM THE HEART OF BELFAST COMES A TERRORIST THREAT THAT SPELLS DOOM FOR BRITAIN'S ONCE AND FUTURE KING . . . AND THE REST OF US AS WELL What SAS Captain Trevor Stirling doesn't know may kill him¾along with every man, woman, and child alive. Stirling thinks his mission is simple: follow a terrorist into the year AD 500 to stop a Northern Irish fanatic bent on murder. If the terrorist succeeds in killing Artorius, the Briton Lord of Battle and the most revered icon of British history, before his greatest military victory, the time-space continuum will fracture, destroying the British nation. And, coincidentally, the rest of the world. In a tale where no one is ever quite who or what they seem, hidden enemies and unexpected allies play out a drama of 21st-century terrorism against the backdrop of Arthurian Britain at its darkest hour. One man, alone in time, struggling to save an entire universe from extinction, must choose between duty to his mission and the growing conviction that he should forsake everything he holds dear to follow a higher duty¾to risk it all. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

BOOK EXCERPT:
When Charles, the Prince of Wales departed on a trip north to confront the rebellious Scottish Noble Archibald Argyll, he realizes the British Isles were neither as prosperous nor as loyal as he had thought, and that he must begin to lighten his father's load, or lose the Stuart throne in a Civil War. In the 87,000 word historical fiction For King or Country, Prince Charles Stuart seemed to have his future laid out for him, when he was the heir apparent to the English Throne and his father ruled over a "prosperous" and "united" British Isles. Then, a religious discord originating from Scotland uprooted old sentiments between the English Parliament and the English Crown, evolving into a rebellion that threatened to encompass Charles's entire world. In a tale of trials and hardships, Charles must persist through his humility and find his new place in society in order to have any chance of becoming the King of England.

BOOK EXCERPT:
I am a simple soldier I am not the strongest man, nor the fastest. I am not the best with the sword or the bow. I am not the quickest to get the point or the wittiest with a retort. I can lift a great weight, run fast, spar with a sword, hunt with a bow, laugh at a jest and respond with a pun. I am not the best or brightest or fastest or smartest or most flippant. Yet I do well in all areas. Not being the best keeps me humble and inspires me to strive for better. While being amongst the best gives me the confidence to always push forward. I joined the Kings Army directly from the farm the day after my Day of Majority rite. I was not driven out for dishonest actions, nor did I run from abusive parents. I did not hunger for great adventure though I did become restless in the tedium of a farmers life. In the end my choice was simple. The King called and I answered. This is my story.
