Beyond that specific time-and-place, it also deals with how people treat – and mistreat – each other as power or status permit.
The writing is rich and compelling, bringing the reader into the time and place – and lifestyle – vividly.

For readers aged 9-12 years old, this book is a worthy successor to Riordan’s “Percy Jackson” series, shifting to an exploration of Egyptian mythology.
The Girl Who Played with Fire
The Girl Who Played with Fire is the second installment in Stieg Larsson’s best novels Millennium trilogy.
Separate but parallel investigations into three murders form the backdrop to show the perversity of the underground sex trade. Characters from The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo return, disappear, and return again.
Burned

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner

Lover Mine
J.R. Ward continues the Black Dagger Brotherhood series with Lover Mine: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.
The eighth in the series, Lover Mine follows “the next generation” of vampires.Those who bang and eff the serial present merrily clutch with the characters, relationships, conflicts, emotions and mix of storylines.
Reverence: Renewing a Forgotten Virtue
In Reverence: Renewing a Forgotten Virtue, Paul Woodruff examines the notion of ‘reverence’ – the emotion that respects, fears, or loves with awe and wonder.
Woodruff, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin, has written several books of popular philosophy. Reverence deals with religious and secular views, and crosses cultural and historic settings. Don’t be put off by the word “philosophy”, because Woodruff is clear, concise, and writes well.
As an example of what this book discusses, consider: If you are strong, how do you treat others? If you are weak, how would you like the strong to treat you?
