Arthur Conan Doyle
A historical romance and tale of adventure, set in England during the fourteenth century. Descendent of a noble family, Nigel Loring is the last of his race, and living alone with his aged grand-mother, upon a small remnant of their great estate. In service to King Edward III, Sir Nigel Loring must prove himself worthy of the hand of his the Lady Mary by performing three deeds in her honor. On his way to the altar, Nigel rescues a woman from dishonor, fights a pirate leader, and battles against the Spanish at sea, among other heroic feats. Set against the fourteenth-century war between England and France, Sir Nigel is an action-packed adventure classic, filled to the brim with history, conflict, chivalry, and a dash of romance.
John Buchan
In the mid-sixteenth century, Jean de Rohaine, a middle-aged French nobleman, journeys to Scotland in search of adventure and a new beginning. In Scotland he meets up with his old friend, Quentin Kennedy, who informs him of a great battle to be waged. Having witnessed Royalist troops butchering suspected Covenanters, he follows the example of godly refugees and escapes to the safety of the hills around Eskdalemuir and the head of Ettrick Water. Whilst staying at the Manse of Lindean, he falls in love but honour forbids he should win a woman he has pledged to protect for another. It is a unique novel of a haunting Scottish lifestyle that differs from Buchans later works, such as The Thirty-Nine Steps. The love story here is also central in a way that it is not to later works by Buchan, so that aspect of the narrative will prove interesting to readers who might be curious about how Buchan examines gender and sexuality in his fiction.
Max Brand
Renowned Western writer Max Brand does it again in the eminently enjoyable novel Six Golden Angels. Max Brands action-filled stories of adventure and heroism in the American West continue to entertain readers throughout the world. Brand penned over 200 full-length Westerns in his career, including Destry Rides Again and Montana Rides Again. But in this work, we see Brand in a new role. A familiar situation in the story of the murder of a millionaire which is dismissed by the police but investigated by his nephew. A varied cast of suspects gamblers, actresses, fake socialites lead to a tie-up with a politician and an underworld gang. A few new turns and a fast action story not to mention dialogue with a hard punch.

Six-Gun Gorilla is one of the most fun and exciting comics in recent years. This book is a fusion of past and present. The plot of this book is fascinating and unusual: the action takes place in the 22nd century. People who want to die will be sent to the war zone, and their death will be transmitted on screens as a reality show. But this time everything happens differently.

Sixteen In Nome is narrated by young Joe May, an Arizonian who has come to Alaska to "make his stake for a ranch." Joe May, a starving, overgrown youth, had provided a small service for Hugh Massey, owner of the most famous husky in Alaska, in exchange for a monetary reward. Hed heard that Masseys life revolved around the dog and it was a chance to murder the man he hated with an undying rage. But he never thought he would become the bait Massey needed to lure his enemy into a deadly trap. Highly recommended, especially for those who love the Old Western genre.
