Volume Two of 100 Great African Kings and Queens continues the journey of another ten magnificent monarchs in African history. The phenomenal success of Volume One and its revised enriched edition made Volume Two urgent. These chronicles will eventually cover the promised One Hundred Kings and Queens, and in the event capture a significant portrait of Real African History. In this edition the opening salvo is the inimitable Hatshesput, one of the greatest builders in all of history. Her construction work in the Nile Valley still stands as a monumental testimony of the African genius, and a benchmark of beautiful architecture. Then there are the freedom fighters and Warrior Queens: Dahia Al Kahina of North Africa and the indomitable Ranavalona 1 of Madagascar. Her ferocity in defence of independence was such that her colonial adversaries dubbed her The Mad Queen of Madagascar. There are also the unsung military exploits of the formidable Sekhukhune of South Africa, and a certain Mad Mullah, Mohammed Abdulle Hassan. He demolished his enemies and wrote exquisite poetry to document his glittering victories, and thus became the father of the Somali nation. These delightful historical narratives will keep you on the edge of your seat for its sheer power of revelation.

Nineteen authors share mystery stories set in New York City’s largest borough in this anthology. Akashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir. Each book is comprised of all-new stories, each one set in a distinct neighborhood or location within the city of the book. Queens becomes the fourth New York City borough to enter the arena in this riveting collection edited by defense attorney and acclaimed fiction writer Robert Knightly. With stories by: Denis Hamill, Malachy McCourt, Maggie Estep, Edgar Award–winner Megan Abbott, Robert Knightly, Liz Martínez, Jill Eisenstadt, Mary Byrne, Tori Carrington, Shailly P. Agnihotri, K.J.A. Wishnia, Victoria Eng, Alan Gordon, Beverly Farley, Joe Guglielmelli, and Glenville Lovell. Includes the story “Bucker’s Error,” winner of the 2009 Edgar Award (Robert L. Fish Memorial Award). Praise for Queens Noir “The ethnically diverse New York borough of Queens is the setting for this solid entry in Akashic’s noir anthology series (Brooklyn Noir, etc.) . . . . with protagonists ranging from a young woman out for revenge (Denis Hamill’s “Under the Throgs Neck Bridge”) to a trigger-happy cop protecting her cousin from an abusive ex-husband (Stephen Solomita’s “Crazy Jill Saves the Slinky”). The husband-and-wife team writing as Tori Carrington . . . weighs in with a gritty whodunit set in a Greek diner in “Last Stop, Ditmars.” The standout by far is “Hollywood Lanes” by Megan Abbott (The Song Is You), a bleak and masterful story of passion and betrayal set in a Forest Hills bowling alley. There’s plenty to enjoy here for Akashic completists and anyone who’s ever cheered (or jeered) the Mets.” —Publishers Weekly
