Master of the Revels


Andrew Grey - 2008
    Master of the Revels tells the story of Tom Carter, a good looking, quiet man in his early forties, who recently lost his lover of ten years. At the urging of a friend, he attends the monthly "revels" at an infamous local leather bar called The Room, where he unexpectedly overthrows the reigning Master of the Revels. According to the rules, Tom is now Master of the Revels and a very reluctant Master at that. That same night, Tom meets Bill, a very hot and handsome leather man who helps Tom adjust to his new role. Tom and Bill quickly fall for one another. However, old boyfriends and the notoriety that comes with being Master of the Revels throw a number of hurdles in their way. Tom finds that he is now the object of desire for many of the men in town, as well as a target for hatred and violence. As time progresses, Tom finds that being Master of the Revels isn't what he wants, but stepping down means that he has to submit himself to the next Master of the Revels, something that Tom approaches with trepidation. Master of the Revels is not only filled with hot sex, but tells a tender love story of two men who finally achieve the love they both desire amidst the underworld of leather bars and dungeons. GREY's story will touch the hearts of all those who have longed for that special someone who has a touch of the adventurous and a big heart … and other things … to go with it.

The Fighting 30th Division: They Called Them Roosevelt's SS


Martin King - 2015
    In World War II it spent more consecutive days in combat than almost any other outfit. Recruited mainly from the Carolinas and Georgia and Tennessee, they were one of the hardest-fighting units the U.S. ever fielded in Europe. What was it about these men that made them so indomitable? They were tough and resilient for a start, but this division had something else. They possessed intrinsic zeal to engage the enemy that often left their adversaries in awe. Their U.S. Army nickname was the “Old Hickory” Division. But after encountering them on the battlefield, the Germans themselves came to call them “Roosevelt’s SS.”This book is a combat chronicle of this illustrious division that takes the reader right to the heart of the fighting through the eyes of those who were actually there. It goes from the hedgerows of Normandy to the 30th’s gallant stand against panzers at Mortain, to the brutal slugs around Aachen and the Westwall, and then to the Battle of the Bulge. Each chapter is meticulously researched and assembled with accurate timelines and after-action reports. The last remaining veterans of the 30th Division and attached units who saw the action firsthand relate their remarkable experiences here for the first, and probably the last time. This is precisely what military historians mean when they write about “fighting spirit.” There have been only a few books written about the 30th Division and none contained direct interviews with the veterans. This work follows their story from Normandy to the final victory in Germany, packed with previously untold accounts from the survivors. These are the men whose incredible stories epitomize what it was to be a GI in one of the toughest divisions in WWII.
