Synopsis The Quest for Forbidden Lands by : Alexandre I. Andreyev
The Quest for Forbidden Lands: Nikolai Przhevalskii and his Followers on Inner Asian Tracks is a collection of biographical essays of outstanding Russian explorers of Inner Asia of the late nineteenth – early twentieth century, Nikolai Przhevalskii, Vsevolod Roborovskii, Mikhail Pevtsov, Petr Kozlov, Grigorii Grumm-Grzhimailo and Bronislav Grombchevskii, almost all senior army officers. Their expeditions were organized by the Imperial Russian Geographical Society with some assistance from the military department with a view of exploring and mapping the vast uncharted territories of Inner Asia, being the Western periphery of the Manchu-Chinese Empire. The journeys of these pioneers were a great success and gained world renown for their many discoveries and the valuable collections they brought from the region.

Synopsis Enter the Forbidden Land by : Frans Welman
Enter the Forbidden Land tells the story of three attempts by Frans Welman and his companions to enter Nagaland, the land of more than forty Naga tribes. Although all three efforts ended in failure, the attempts demonstrate how India and the lesser-known Burma, now known as Myanmar, have been successful in keeping foreigners out. Neither country wants outsiders to observe the raging war that started shortly after independence from colonial Britain. The Nagas, who time and again have made it known to both former colonizer Britain and newly emerging India that they wanted to be left alone, were invaded by India in 1954. Now 50 years later the war is still on, although for the second time in its history peace talks are taking place. This war, forgotten by the international community, was the challenge for Welman and his companions. Their goal was to check on the rare yet compelling accounts of the land and people that told of beauty and democracy among the Nagas and their tenacity to not give in to a powerful alien master. The three journeys enlighten the reader to how fifty years of domination make a people believe that what has been done, including genocide, is genuinely defined in true terms. These journeys open eyes to see the beauty and the beast within. They will lead to the fascinating Nagas, who are in dire need to be assisted in their quest to be free.

Synopsis Forgotten Land by : Max Egremont
Until the end of World War II, East Prussia was the German empire's farthest eastern redoubt, a thriving and beautiful land on the southeastern coast of the Baltic Sea. Now it lives only in history and in myth. Since 1945, the territory has been divided between Poland and Russia, stretching from the border between Russia and Lithuania in the east and south, and through Poland in the west. In Forgotten Land, Max Egremont offers a vivid account of this region and its people through the stories of individuals who were intimately involved in and transformed by its tumultuous history, as well as accounts of his own travels and interviews he conducted along the way. Forgotten Land is a story of historical identity and character, told through intimate portraits of people and places. It is a unique examination of the layers of history, of the changing perceptions and myths of homeland, of virtue and of wickedness, and of how a place can still overwhelm those who left it years before.

Synopsis Moonlight Walkers by : Courtney Moore
The Blackheart dragons have returned. As a young Moonlight Walker wolf, Sakura bristles at the tight leash her family insists on keeping her on. She yearns to join the pack and run under the glow of silvery moonlight. Still for reasons no one will explain to her, she's forced to remain within the boundaries of the secluded forest she calls home. All that changes when the ruthless Blackheart dragons invade, incinerating their peaceful forest and kidnapping members of her pack. Courage put to the test, Sakura begins a perilous quest to save her family. Yet beyond the forest, not all is what it seems. Loyalties are tested. Enemies become allies. A destiny is revealed that pits the Wolf King against the Dragon King to claim the ultimate prize-for the Blackhearts will stop at nothing to reign over her world. Murder, treachery and deceit are nothing to them. As the drums of war sound, can one wolf save the lives of many? Or will Sakura's fate be decided by those eager to destroy her?
