Reviews
"There are fewer greater pleasures in a reader's life than witnessing a writer whose work they have enjoyed reached a new plateau in their storytelling skills, and such is the case here... Broaddus delivers in a voice that both whispers and roars and cannot be ignored." - Bram Stoker and International Horror Guild Award-winner Gary A. Braunbeck "Maurice Broaddus' writing creates a dangerous and authentic mood. The language is fierce and evokes the gritty realism of life on the streets... For some, King Maker is going to be the best read of 2010." - FantasyLiterature.com "King Maker is a fascinating novel... [and] should be on every SF fan's shelf." - Adam Christopher "Deft characterization, authentic dialogue, exciting plot... Maurice Broaddus has definitely brought his A-game to this urban joust." - Gene O'Neill " King Maker's strength is its ability to stay true-to-life even when the fantasy components come into play..." - Nick Cato, Stem Shots, "There are fewer greater pleasures in a reader's life than witnessing a writer whose work they have enjoyed reached a new plateau in their storytelling skills, and such is the case here...

Synopsis
For many people step dance is associated with the Irish step-dance stage show, Riverdance, which assisted in both promoting the dance form and in placing Ireland globally. But the practice and contexts of step dance are much more complicated and fluid than this. Step dance may be performed informally by friends and neighbours or in formally structured classes; dancers may be young or old, male or female; and costumes range from highly elaborate stage dress to ordinary everyday wear. Catherine Foley tells the story of this dance from its roots in eighteenth-century Ireland to its modern global appeal. Focusing on one rural European community in North Kerry on the west coast of Ireland, she examines three step-dance: the rural Molyneaux step-dance practice, representing the end of a relatively long system of teaching by itinerant dancing masters in the region; the urbanized staged, competition orientated practice, cultivated by the cultural nationalist movement, the Gaelic League, from the end of the nineteenth century, and practised today both inside and outside of Ireland; and the stylized, commoditized, theatrical practice of Siamsa Tire, the National Folk Theatre of Ireland, established in North Kerry in the 1970s. The book provides a rich historical and ethnographic account of step dancing, step dancers, and cultural institutions in Ireland., FROM THE DRUG GANGS OF DOWNTOWN INDIANAPOLIS, THE ONE TRUE KING WILL ARISE. The King Arthur myth gets dramatically retold through the eyes of street hustler King, as he tries to unite the crack dealers, gangbangers and the monsters lurking within them to do the right thing. From the drug gangs of downtown Indianapolis, the one true king will arise. The King Arthur myth gets dramatically retold through the eyes of street hustler King, as he tries to unite the crack dealers, gangbangers and the monsters lurking within them to do the right thing.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
