The Coin of the Realm pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Rick Weisman, a young American merchant seafarer, inherits from his dying uncle a priceless relic of the Romanov dynasty, and the legend which has followed it through the ages: that he who bears the Zevi Coin will be led to whatever his soul is seeking, be it love, gold, glory or God. So begins Rick's journey across the Atlantic and into the labyrinth of North Africa. What he finds there will change his life forever. ///// ADVANCE REVIEWS OF THE COIN OF THE REALM: "With its sure-handed style and literary polish, one is hard-pressed to accept that 'The Coin of the Realm' is a first novel. This is pure adventure storytelling, yet intertwined with the eternal quest for truths that lie just beyond our grasp. Seagoing exploits aboard Caroline Coast, a ramshackle freighter, conjure passages of Patrick O'Brian -- distinct praise indeed. But whether the scene is set in the Great Lakes, the Atlantic, Tunisia, or the Sahara, the author keeps the pace moving and the excitement high, using action and mystery to skillfully project us into the minds and hearts of his characters. Roger Dubin has proven he's a writer to watch." -- Anthony Eglin, author of "The Blue Rose," "The Lost Gardens," and "The Water Lily Cross" (St. Martin's Press) ///// "'The Coin of the Realm' is hard to characterize yet easy to love. On one level it's a gripping thriller with exotic locales, memorable characters, and a compelling romance; while just beneath the surface swirl mysteries of destiny, purpose, the intricate workings of fate, and the ultimate sources of meaning in life. The novel's transcendent themes will haunt the reader long after the 'thrill er] is gone.' I recommend it most highly." -- Roy Schoeman, author of"Salvation is from the Jews," and "Honey from the Rock" (Ignatius Press)
