Magnum Opus: The Unbelievable 15-Year Saga of Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy
By 1993, Guns N' Roses had hit practically every benchmark possible for a rock n' roll band.
Their eight-year journey had included an explosive and game-changing debut record, a self-indulgent but even more successful double album release, a handful of raucous global tours, and various front-page controversies over their lyrics, band members' drug addictions, and lead singer Axl Rose's rattlesnake temper. The most captivating part of the Guns N' Roses story was just beginning, however. A fifteen-year saga was about to unfold over the creation of the group's sixth studio album, Chinese Democracy-a perverse and jaw-dropping tale that would come to involve not only a small nation of diverse musical talent but also several figures from the world of professional sports, a multinational soft drink company, and the FBI. Cultural critics couldn't agree if the resulting work was unprecedented genius or criminally mediocre. Magnum Opus: The Unbelievable 15-Year Saga of Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy recounts in engaging depth and detail the long and often ludicrous road to the last mythic rock 'n' roll album of the 20th Century. Of course, Chinese Democracy was not released until well into the 21st Century, and Magnum Opus assembles a thrilling narrative of the mishaps, detours, and near-death experiences that accompanied the long journey to its release. Combining outrageous facts and never-before-told stories from as many direct sources as possible, this is the definitive story of a famously troubled album that will allow rock 'n' roll die-hards to finally separate truth from fan lore and outright fabrications. -

Dreams of the Alhambra
A missing friend.
A fractured memory.
A past that refuses to let go.
Mackenzie Douglas wakes in a hospital in Istanbul with no memory of the night her friend Copper disappeared. Months later, unable to shake the trauma of Copper's disappearance, she flees to southern Spain to lose herself in the Alhambra, the focus of her master's thesis.
But the Alhambra's legendary palaces hold secrets of their own. A seemingly harmless tisane, meant to quiet the nightmares that plague her sleep, instead draws Mackenzie into vivid dreams of a spirited Moorish princess navigating forbidden love, betrayal, and political upheaval in fifteenth-century Spain-a story that begins to intertwine with her own in ways she cannot explain.
As danger and intrigue close in around the princess, fragments of Mackenzie's lost night in Istanbul resurface, revealing that the threat she escaped has followed her to Spain.
Caught between two timelines, two destinies, and lives that may span centuries, Mackenzie realizes that to survive, she must face the darkest truth of all:
Some histories return not to haunt us-but to claim us. -

High Water
He's a ghost, back from the dead, and determined to claw back everything that should have been his-including me.
When I return home to my family's ranch as a freshly divorced single mom, I expect all the usual challenges. I'm ready for the furious teenager and steeled for the small town gossip mill. I'm even prepared to be back in the thick of Stockton drama. The kind that has me helping my brothers patch bullet wounds and rebuild fire-ravaged family businesses.
What I'm not prepared for is seeing my brother's best friend, the man who broke my heart years ago, back from the dead, and standing in the family kitchen laughing with my daughter.
Our daughter. Not that he would know.
He's nothing like I remember. The soft-spoken ranch hand my father took in like his own is a hardened cowboy, every bit as dangerous as my brothers and twice as charming. My traitorous heart even threatens to thaw when I see him standing at the end of the aisle, hat in hand, wearing a heart-stopping grin.
Unfortunately for him, I'm only walking down it to secure a legacy my family desperately needs. Because once my heart is broken, I never forget.
Any path to forgiveness would involve him crawling on his knees over broken glass. A challenge he apparently sees as a silver lining.
But my secret isn't the only one we uncover while we're digging up the past, and the threat that follows has us racing against time and facing impossible odds.
Odds he's determined to beat, come hell or high water.

En palabras del propio autor: «Bienvenido a Un Libro, en el que trato de explicar cómo un muchacho de Cuba encontró la forma de ganarse la vida en Estados Unidos. Todo está aquí lo bueno, lo malo, lo bonito, lo feo, los golpes de suerte increíbles y los fracasos desgarradores . . . Sabrán lo que Lucy y yo tuvimos que hacer para convencer a la gente de que podíamos interpretar a un matrimonio en «Amo a Lucy». Poco después nacieron Lucie y Desi Jr. y nuestro mundo era el paraíso. La ironía de todo esto fue cómo nuestro éxito, fama y fortuna inimaginables lo convirtieron en un infierno.

You will learn what Lucy and I had to do to convince people we could play husband and wife in I Love Lucy. Shortly afterward Lucie and Desi Jr. were born and our world was paradise. The irony of it all is how our undreamed-of success, fame, and fortune turned it into hell. It wasn't easy to write about all of it, but as my son said, "There's only one way to do it, Dad. Tell it like it was." -
Prison Song: Music and Incarceration in the United States
From Johnny Cash to Jay-Z, musicians have long used their voices to challenge the injustices of the prison system. Prison Song: Music and Incarceration in the United States reveals how musicians have confronted the prison system by telling the life stories of imprisoned individuals, creating empathetic bonds between listeners and those individuals, and critiquing the racial and social inequalities that incarceration preys upon. Prison Song takes a broad, interdisciplinary approach to explore how artists across genres--hip hop, country, blues, folk, rock, jazz, and classical--have protested the prison system. David Metzer examines the works of incarcerated, formerly incarcerated, and nonincarcerated musicians from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including prison records, government reports, legislation, court decisions, and scholarship from carceral studies, each chapter reveals how musicians responded to developments in the prison system at particular historical moments and how their works have shaped public understanding of the prison system in the United States.

Intelligence Operator 230: In the Service of Canada
Forget the tuxedos and shaken martinis. This isn't fiction-it's colder, quieter, and much more real.
As an intelligence operator during the tense Cold War period, Mike served as a Peacekeeper and operated covertly behind the Iron Curtain, where silence spoke louder than words. Later, he participated in the Afghanistan War as an Electronic Warfare Intelligence Analyst. His story isn't pulled from Bond movies or Smiley novels - it's rooted in the real tension of secrecy, service, and warfare.
Mike is a founding member of the modern Canadian Intelligence Branch, established on October 29, 1982, as the successor to the former Canadian Intelligence Corps, and was assigned Intelligence Branch number 230. Hence the title of the book. This memoir unveils the hidden world of Canadian military intelligence, shaped in part by its first Colonel Commandant, the renowned Sir William Stephenson-code name Intrepid-whose influence went beyond ceremonial duties. From encrypted briefings to moral dilemmas, Mike offers rare insight into a profession rooted in trust, restraint, and the burden of knowing too much.
