From the opening salvos on Rocky Face Ridge in northwest Georgia through the trials of Resaca and Kennesaw Mountain, Charlie faces the overwhelming force of the Union army and a growing uncertainty about his place in the war. Framed by a story that finds the elderly Charlie giving a speech on the fiftieth anniversary of the Battle of Atlanta, "A Distant Flame" portrays love, violence, and regret about wrong paths taken. With an attention to historical detail that brings the past powerfully to the present, Philip Lee Williams reveals Charlie's journey of redemption from the Civil War's fields of fire to the slow steps of old age.

In the years that follow, they become friends and more than friends. Together, they will find strength, meet challenges, face life's adventures, endure loss, face stark realities, and open their hearts. In this moving novel, bestselling author Danielle Steel traces their unforgettable journey - full of tests and trials - as three boys and two girls discover the vital bonds that will last a lifetime. Gabby, Billy, Izzie, Andy, and Sean - each bursting with their own personality, strikingly different looks and talents, in sports, science, and the arts. Each drawn by the magical spark of connection that happens to the young. At the exclusive Atwood School, on a bright September day, starting in kindergarten they become an inseparable group known to outsiders as the Big Five. In this rarefied world, five families grow closer, and five children bloom beside one another, unaware of the storms gathering around them. As they turn from grade-schoolers to teenagers, seemingly perfect lives are buffeted by unraveling families, unfortunate missteps, and losses and victories great and small. And, one by one, they turn back to the Big Five to regain their footing and their steady course. But as they emerge from Atwood and enter the college years, the way forward is neither safe nor clear. As their lives separate and diverge, the challenges and risks become greater, the losses sharper, and the right paths harder to choose, in a journey of friendship, survival, and love. In what may be her most intricate and emotionally powerful novel yet, Danielle Steel tells a heart-wrenching, ultimately triumphant story that spans decades, weaves together a vivid cast of characters, and captures the challenges we face in life - sometimes, if we're lucky, with a friend forever by our side.

Paperback. English. Flamingo. 2001. In good condition. Douglas Coupland first gained international attention with the groundbreaking Generation X back in 1991, and in this latest novel he follows the trials and tribulations of the acutely dysfunctional Drummond clan, when they assemble in Florida to watch Sarah Drummond make her debut launch from Cape Canaveral. Imagine an unholy alliance of The Simpsons, Jerry Springer's most outlandish guests and the kids from South Park, and you begin to get a glimmer of life chez Drummond. Janet Drummond, the 65-year-old matriarch of this mad bunch of misfits, contracted HIV in a freak accident when her ex-husband shot her oldest son, Wade; the bullet passed through his liver and lodged in her sternum. Astronaut Sarah is the sanest of the Drummond children but she has her own problems: she was born without a hand because Janet took thalidomide during her pregnancy, and she has just discovered that her husband, Howie, is having a fling with a fellow-astronaut's wife. The youngest Drummond, Bryan, suffers from suicidal tendencies and has shacked up with the rebellious Shaw, who seems hell-bent on peddling her unborn child to a couple of unscrupulous baby merchants. The plot tears along at a frantic pace, throwing in a stolen letter from Princess Diana's coffin and a pharmaceutical billionaire with an interesting in human cloning. Yet amongst so many crazy characters and a plot which becomes increasingly convoluted the presence of Janet remains a central stabilising force; she is the eye of the hurricane which is the Drummond family. Just as we all laugh at The Simpsons while owning up to the programme's essential truth about American family life, so the Drummonds are essentially a close, loyal family unit, despite all the hyperbole and their almost farcical adventures. The family is psychotic, but Janet's selflessness binds up the wounds of these crazy people and her unconditional love is their salvation. (Kirkus UK)
