- Bloodguard [electronic resource] : by Robson, Cecy.aut; cloudLibrary;
“An expertly crafted page-turner with unpredictable twists, steamy romance, and magical creatures.” —Kirkus One hundred years. Tens of thousands of gladiators. And today, only one will rise… Everything in the Kingdom of Arrow is a lie. Leith of Grey thought coming to this new land and volunteering to fight in the gladiator arena—vicious, bloodthirsty tournaments where only the strongest survive—would earn him enough gold to save his dying sister. He thought there was nothing left to lose. He was wrong—and they took everything. His hope. His freedom. His very humanity. All Leith has left is his battle-scarred body, fueled by rage and hardened from years of fighting for the right to live another day. Then Leith meets Maeve, an elven royal who is everything he despises. Everything he should hate. Until the alluring princess offers him the one thing he needs most: a chance to win the coveted title of Bloodguard—and his freedom.

- Evolve or die : hard-won lessons from a hockey life / by Shannon, John,1956-author.;
"For fans of Michael McKinley's Hockey: A People's History and Bob Cole's Now I'm Catching On--a book about what's changed in hockey, what never should, and a celebration of what we love about the game, from the broadcaster, analyst, and longtime executive producer of Hockey Night in Canada, John Shannon. For decades, Hockey Night in Canada has been the gold standard not just for hockey broadcasts, but for all sports across North America. It shows the stories of the game: on-ice heroics, the love and support of family, small-town values, and big-city lights. Meet the person who shaped that standard. John Shannon was the longtime executive producer of Hockey Night in Canada, starting at the bottom and working his way up through the 1980s and 1990s. He has a unique view of the game and how the way we enjoy it has developed. Technology plays a role, but it's about the storytelling--modern-day gladiators and their trials--and hockey provides endless good stories. Shannon's world behind the scenes is every bit as colourful and unexpected as what happens on the ice--and just as full of rich characters. From standing up to the Edmonton Oilers' mighty Glen Sather to ordering then-Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau to keep out of a dressing room, these stories illuminate the big moments and people that have made the game special. Shannon captures a nostalgia for the great broadcasts of the past--complete with baby blue Hockey Night in Canada blazers--and a pride in how far we've come in improving the game and expanding on the stories we tell. He also shares the keys to a long and successful career: integrity, loyalty, determination, and above all passion. Much has changed in the sport and how we enjoy it, but Shannon's career shows that some things must always remain."-- Provided by publisher.- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Shannon, John, 1956-; National Hockey League; Hockey night in Canada (Television program); Hockey; Hockey; Sportscasters;
