Description
<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Richard II found himself under siege not once, but twice in his minority. Crowned king at age ten, he was only fourteen when the Peasants' Revolt terrorized London. But he proved himself every bit the Plantagenet successor, facing Wat Tyler and the rebels when all seemed lost. Alas, his triumph was short-lived, and for the next ten years he struggled to assert himself against his uncles and increasingly hostile nobles. Just like in the days of his great-grandfather Edward II, vengeful magnates strove to separate him from his friends and advisors, and even threatened to depose him if he refused to do their bidding. The Lords Appellant, as they came to be known, purged the royal household with the help of the Merciless Parliament. They murdered his closest allies, leaving the King alone and defenseless. He would never forget his humiliation at the hands of his subjects. Richard's inability to protect his adherents would haunt him for the rest of his life, and he vowed that next time, retribution would be his.</span><br /><span class="a-text-bold" style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:700;">B.R.A.G.

Story Behind The Book
Inspired by a true story.
Syria Warrington came home one afternoon and found an old black top hat on her front step, being an antique enthusiast; she did not hesitate to take it into her home. But bringing this hat into her home unknowingly exposed her and her family to the spirit that called this hat home. That very night, strange things began taking place in her home. First came footsteps following by erotic dreams, then came the seductive perverted desires and unholy blood lust of the dead seducing the living. Were her experiences real or imagined? Was she being seduced by an Incubus?...
Reviews
was a little skeptical at first being this was not a typical book that I
would read for ghost stories, but once I got into the book, I couldn't
put it down. The obsessive behavior of the "unwanted guest" was just
wow!! - I was torn between the idea of the activities of said ghost
being fun or being down right exhausting. The story kept you going and
wanting more. I think the author has found a "niche" for the paranormal
and should do more of them as well as pursue her other tales. Good Luck
and keep them coming.
