Jessie Bollier often played his fife to earn a few pennies down by the New Orleans docks. One afternoon, a sailor asked him to pipe a tune, and that eveing, Jessie was kidnapped and dumped aboard "The Moonlight", a slave ship where a hateful duty awaited him. He was to play music so the slaves could dance to keep their muscles strong, their bodies profitable. Jessie was sickened by the thought of taking part in the business of trading rum and spices for blacks and then selling the ones who survived the frightful sea voyage from Africa. But to themen of the ship, 'a slave dancer' was necessary to ensure their share of the profit. They did not heed the horrors that every day grew more vivid, more inescapable to Jessie. Yet, even after four months of fear, calculated torture, and hazardous sailing with a degraded crew, Jessie was to face a final horror that would stay with him the rest of his life.

Fiction
Roman

Many years ago, the storytellers say, the great King Arthur brought justice to England with the help of his gallant knights of the roundtable. While most of King Arthur’s knights freely chose a life of duty, for Sir Balin the Ill-Fated, destiny was foretold in a prophecy. And seriously, "ill-fated" is right there in his title, so Balin’s not surprised when things go sour. Still, no matter how dire the task, a loyal and gallant knight never refuses adventure! Will Sir Balin finally discover his true destiny? And which ill-fated path will he have to choose? Join Balin on this, the noblest quest of all.
