MUBA: the Move-Up Baseball Association (a Literary Sweet Roll) Review



PLAY BALL! A short story about the pros who play ball, or did until thrown out for flunking a piss test! With Move-up you play ball on your own. Who cares what drugs you do, Play ball! The stakes are high, and the players higher. The crowds are growing and the money is getting big. The major leagues are worried. The parents of America outraged.

The Literary Sweet Rolls are very short stories for the price of a fancy coffee. Each one a quick read, they are a cafe treat, a perfect no-calorie accompaniment for your favorite espresso, latte, or pot of tea. These stories have been honed to sharpen the well-caffeinated point of view.

The Book of the Wind (Samurai Girl)

The Book of the Wind (Samurai Girl) Review



When I was six months old, I dropped from the sky -- the lone survivor of a deadly Japanese plane crash. The newspapers named me Heaven. I was adopted by a wealthy family in Tokyo, pampered, and protected. For nineteen years, I thought I was lucky.

I'm learning how wrong I was.

I'VE LOST EVERYTHING.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR ME,

BUT THE PERSON I LOVE WON'T BE IN IT.

IT'S TIME TO START OVER.

LAS VEGAS IS A TOWN FOR GAMBLERS AND COWBOYS.

ONE GAMBLER HAS FOUND ME -- -AND HE WANTS TO RISK IT ALL.

BUT MY HEART ISN'T IN THE GAME.

I ONLY HAVE ONE GOAL NOW:

TO STAY ALIVE.

I AM SAMURAI GIRL.

Power Play in Washington (Screech Owls Series #16)

Power Play in Washington (Screech Owls Series #16) Review



The Screech Owls are in Washington, D.C., for the International Goodwill Peewee Championship – and Nish is about to become a “news flash” seen round the world! Literally. Because the craziest Owl ever has a brand-new plan: to streak the White House.

His way into the White House, he believes, is through the Screech Owls’ new friend, who not only plays centre for the Washington Wall, but just happens to be the son of the U.S. president!

It is a hockey tournament with a difference: secret-service agents, sniffer dogs, metal detectors, worldwide media attention – and the most cunning political assassination plan in modern history.

When the Owls head for a “normal” kids’ day out with their new friend, the president’s son, they have no idea they are about to get involved in a dangerous international power play, with murder the real game plan of their opponents.
