Description
In 1997 Hong Kong will be returned to China and 6,000,000 people living in its thriving capitalist economy under British colonial rule will be handed over to communist China. But what shape will both Hong Kong and China be in? The fate of Hong Kong is evidently important for the millions of people who there; it will also mark a major transformation in the balance of the vital East Asian economy and in the way China itself is governed. As such, it is not an issue of concern only to Britain, but an important international issue, with repercussions in the US, Canada, Australia and the whole of East Asia. This book analyses the probable outcomes.

Description
Bahzell Bahnakson of the Horse Stealer hradani never wanted to be a champion of the War God. Unfortunately, Tomanak had insisted, and Bahzell's sense of responsibility hadn't let him say No.Which was how he found himself in the Empire of the Axe, regarded by all with suspicion and fear. Including the Order of Tomanak, horrified by the notion that their deity had chosen a hradani as a champion...and intending to do something about it. And assuming he survived that, he had to cross three hundred leagues of bitter winter snow to face a Dark God. Add a powerful neighboring kingdom with no intention of letting Bahzell save his people, and you have the makings of a really bad day.But one thing Bahzell has learned: a champion of Tomanak does what needs doing.And the people in his way had better move.
