Author MaryAlice Kelly’s new book “The Silver Circle” is a compelling tale of magic, mystery, and friendship in the tiny kingdom of Lamara

MaryAlice Kelly, a lifelong writer and married great-grandmother with a wide range of interests including animals, especially cats, stars, needlecrafts, music, reading, and miniature houses, has completed her new book “The Silver Circle”: a fast-paced adventure that keeps the pages turning until its poignant conclusion.

The crown of Lamara was legendary, the creation of one mystical people and the gift to Lamara of another. It has the power to choose the king, and when it chooses the younger son over the elder, trouble begins. When it is lost and the king dies, it leaves Gunther, an adolescent boy, as heir, and the rejected uncle becomes regent.

This is also a tale of friendship, the kind of friendship that encourages one man to always tell a king the truth, whether he wants to hear it or not, and his sons to follow his example. There is a price for this kind of loyalty, and each man pays it in his own way: the first one with death, the second with captivity, and the third with change.

Is the price too high?

What kind of king will Gunther be?

Published by Page Publishing, MaryAlice Kelly’s engrossing book is an excellent choice for avid medieval fiction readers.

Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase “The Silver Circle” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Author James Kirkwood’s new book “When Fathers Don’t Hug” is an inspirational memoir about how fathers may have an everlasting influence on one’s life.

James Kirkwood, a retired Army colonel who served for 29 years then established his own IT consulting firm and currently works on his tree farm in Texas has two children and five grandchildren and an MBA, has completed his new book “When Fathers Don’t Hug”: a motivating and intimate memoir about James’ life with his father growing up and how his life has been shaped by his father.

James writes, “The place was perfect for learning to shoot and track game, learning what you could eat and what not to eat in the woods and how to find it, fishing (with a pole and without a pole), hunting with and without a gun, building a shelter, and just having the freedom of ninety acres all to myself. My first gun was a BB gun. I did a lot of shooting at cardboard targets in the backyard. Daddy gave me his Springfield single shot .22 rifle when I was nine years old; this was a year before my mother knew I was shooting a real gun and she thought I was too young then.

“From about eight years old until I was twelve, Daddy and cousin Tom would teach me the Indian skills they had learned from those old Indians in the family. Cousin Tom did not have any children, although he had been married several times and Daddy and he were like brothers, so they both taught me.”

Published by Page Publishing, James Kirkwood’s personal tale reveals how important a relationship with one’s father is in life.

This memoir is an interactive book that gives readers lessons at the end of each chapter. The purpose is to show how to build a better relationship with one’s father by portraying and seeing what it is like to have an influential father. Readers will follow along James’ memoirs about his father and hopefully build a stronger connection to their own father, whether he hugs or not.

Thom Shipley, a resident of Baltimore, has a new book. “Racism: Then and Now” is a memoir of the lasting legacy of bigotry on his formative years in postwar Maryland.

Thomas R. Shipley, a former teacher and administrator who, days after his retirement from the Maryland State Department of Education, embarked on a second career as the executive director of the National Association of Federally Impacted Schools. It was a new association of public schools and reservations, dealing with federal funding for American Indian and military-dependent students. He soon became a consultant to the House and Senate subcommittees on education, and retired in 1988 to become a serial entrepreneur. Thom now volunteers as a mentor in entrepreneurship at the University of Baltimore, and has just completed his fourth book, “Racism: Then and Now,” a wrenching retrospective on his personal experiences as a witness to subtle and overt racism in the Jim Crow era and beyond.

The author writes, “This book is divided into two conspicuously different parts. The first half contains five relevant, true stories, which started me on a thought-path to trying to understand racism as I was living it. The stories took place in the ’40s and ’50s and range from mild to poignant. They are all true and are retold here just as I lived them. Not very long ago, racism of every variety was alive and well in most of the United States. It was a right of privilege, passed on to a large portion of the White community, and it was an unbearable burden, passed on—generation after generation—to what I knew then as the Colored Community. Generation after generation, in every family, the torch was passed. From kitchen table conversations to Supreme Court decisions, racism was passed on. Every child “had to be carefully taught.”

“For more than eighty years, I have watched it morph from subtle acts of noncompliance into violent explosions. I have watched acts from lynching for flirting to murder for being Black. We have had local riots and international demonstrations, and little has honestly changed.”

Published by Page Publishing, Thomas R. Shipley’s engrossing book is a must-read for anyone interested in the legacy of racist attitudes across many facets of American society. Readers who wish to experience this engaging and frequently controversial work can purchase “Racism: Then and Now” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.

Author Maxwell O. Thompson-Eleogu’s new book “Africa—The Road to Afro-Modernity” is a thought-provoking product of a select and innovative think tank, NobleAfriq

Maxwell O. Thompson-Eleogu, a native Nigerian who lives and is schooled in the United States of America, has completed his new book “Africa—The Road to Afro-Modernity”: a gripping work that describes the idea that failure of political leadership, lack of good governance, and stunted progress in Africa are not the main problems but symptoms of disintegrated individualism, which is a loss of sense of being.

Author Maxwell O. Thompson-Eleogu discusses his work, writing, “For those seeking to understand the root of Africa’s malady and their inability to grow like the rest of other nations of the world, this book, The Road to Afro-Modernity, serves as an inspiration. Our method is eclectic explorative; this is the approach that seeks to borrow ideas from other cultures that seem suitable to correct the deficiencies that exist in African culture. The eclectic explorative does not mean that we are disruptive to our culture; rather, all cultures are borrowed. This book, The Road to Afro-Modernity, is a transition from our old ancestral communities to Afro-modernity. We can no longer search for our identity and national identity out of the old world of the past. Our old tribal world and the ancestral world are not lost but outgrown. As such, our identity, national identity, and the meaning of who we are cannot be found; rather, they are to be created and achieved.”

Published by Page Publishing, Maxwell O. Thompson-Eleogu’s insightful work serves as a guide for those seeking the answers to the root of the malady of our time in Africa.

Author Maxwell O. Thompson-Eleogu is a distinguished fellow and founder of NobleAfriq Institute, a select and innovative think tank, whose mission and trajectory are that People Matter(s)—remaking society through remaking the people. He was trained in the field of philosophy with special interests in African philosophy, African American philosophy, American pragmatism, continental philosophy, and African mysticism and spirituality. He has a website, http://www.nobbleafriqinstitute.com

Gene Koester’s newly released “The Gift of Grandchildren” is a thoughtful look into the experience of becoming a grandparent

“The Gift of Grandchildren”: a considerate and moving explanation of the joy grandchildren bring. “The Gift of Grandchildren” is the creation of published author Gene Koester, a loving husband, father, and grandfather who spent a career working in Catholic education. He is a graduate of McAuley Regional Catholic High School, Missouri Southern State University (BSE), and Pepperdine University (MSA).

The unique storyline of each grandchild is peppered with comment and observation from the author, which can easily be identified by today’s grandparent, those about to embark on the blessing of becoming a grandparent, or those curious about the effects grandparents have on grandchildren and the special memories grandchildren give to the grandparent.

“The Gift of Grandchildren gives the reader a plethora of examples in respect to family traditions, mores, conversations, and endeavors, which are enhanced by the formation of the grandparent’s knowledge and the grandchild’s curiosity. These aspects of life are presented in a manner designed to bring laughter, contemplation, and spiritual reflection to the reader through recognition of events pertinent to the human experience.

“The Gift of Grandchildren was written with the idea of God’s gift of life being very special for those parents who have entered the realm of becoming a grandparent. It is not only part of God’s plan but a glorious aspect of the cycle of life.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Gene Koester’s new book is a personal testament to the blessings that come with grandchildren.

With personal stories and an encouraging tone, Koester’s expression of love for grandparenthood is one that will resonate with many who have had the honor of being promoted to grandparent.
