They have always scared him in the past--the Rangers, with their dark cloaksand shadowy ways. The villagers believe the Rangers practice magic that makes them invisible to ordinary people. And now 15-year-old Will, always small for his age, has been chosen as a Ranger's apprentice. What he doesn't yet realize is that the Rangers are the protectors of the kingdom. Highly trained in the skills of battle and surveillance, they fight the battles before the battles reach the people. And as Will is about to learn, there is a large battle brewing. The exiled Morgarath, Lord of the Mountains of Rain and Night, is gathering his forces for an attack on the kingdom. This time, he will not be denied. . . .

Here is the fantasy adventure that launched the Ranger's Apprentice series, an epic story of heroes and villains that has become an international phenomenon. Perfect for fans of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, T.H. White's The Sword in the Stone, Christopher Paolini's Eragon series, and George R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones / A Song of Ice and Fire series.

Japan's Secret Manned Suicide Submarine and the First American Ship It Sank in WWII

In November 1944, the U.S. Navy fleet lay at anchor in Ulithi Harbor, deep in the Pacific Ocean, when the oiler USSMississinewaerupted in a ball of flames. Japan's secret weapon, the Kaiten- a manned suicide submarine - had succeeded in its first mission.

The Kaitenwas so secret that even Japanese naval commanders didn't know of its existence. And the Americans kept it secret as well. Embarrassed by the shocking surprise attack, the U.S. Navy refused to salvage or inspect the sunken Mighty Miss. Only decades later would the survivors understand what really happened at Ulithi, when a diving team located the wreck in 2001.

In Kaiten, Michael Mair and Joy Waldron tell the full story from both sides, from the strategic importance of the USSMississinewato newly revealed secrets of the Kaitendevelopment and training schools. U.S. Navy survivors recount their gripping experiences in the wake of the attack, as well as the harrowing recovery efforts that came later. Japanese pilots reveal their terrifying experiences training to die for their country and Emperor, never knowing when their moment of doom would come.

Praise for Kaiten

'A powerful tale about how an intersection of youth, patriotism, and sacrifice ended in a fiery suicidal assault on an American warship. More than recounting a battle, this is a very human story that relives one of the most painful episodes of World War 11.' James P. Delgado, author of Silent Killers- Submarines and Underwater Warfareand Khubilai Khan's Lost Fleet- In Search of a Legendary Armada

'Mair and Waldron masterfully interweave World War 11 documents, interviews, and oral histories of two opposing nations in mortal conflict to create a rare and intimate view of the Pacific War that provokes the reader to rethink the boundaries of individual courage and national patriotism.' Larry E. Murphy, Chief (Ret.), Submerged Resources Center, National Park Service

'A crisp, persuasive narrative about a little-known but startling World War 11 attack. . .Mair and Waldron portray the story from both perspectives, constantly building to a dramatic, fiery crescendo. Their profiles of American and Japanese sailors add poignancy to a compelling story of battle disaster, death, and survival.' David Sears, author of Pacific Airand At War with the Wind

'This doomed mission almost became lost in history after the atomic explosions at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But the authors of Kaitenhave pulled together the story and populated it with flesh-and-blood warriors on both sides of the conflict . . .This book can take its place alongside Shadow Diversand Unbrokenas a graphic, living story from the worst war the world has ever known.' Richard McCord, journalist, editor, and publisher of the Santa Fe Reporter, and author of The Chain Gang- One Newspaper versus the Gannett Empire

'If you like reading history with the details to bring it back to life, you'll enjoy Kaiten.' Ralph Wilbanks, underwater archaeologist and NUMA expedition leader

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Laurelin Paige comes a new story in her Dirty Universe series... I'm damn good at my job. So if I swipe my boss's event invitations from time to time, it's kind of like a much-earned bonus. He'll never miss them, and I get a five-star free meal in the company of men in well-fitted suits. But then he shows up at an award's dinner that I'm most definitely not supposed to be at. Lucky for me, when my boss accuses me of stealing his ticket, a hot swoony man in a tux steps in and says, "She came with me." Now I owe the stranger one, which is totally cool. Until I discover the hot, swoony man is none other than Steele Sebastian, a rich man with a penchant for scandal. And the way he wants me to pay him back? Let's just say that Steele Sebastian has a reputation as a dirty filthy billionaire, and I'm about to find out why. **Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it's an introduction to an author's world. And for fans, it's a bonus book in the author's series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**
