Ex-NFL player, gentleman scholar, and Fox Sports personality Marcellus Wiley sucks you into a world of inner-city violence, Ivy League intrigue, and pro-football escapades that's one part touching, one part hilarious, and all parts impossible to put down. Marcellus Wiley has never had a problem expressing his opinion, whether it was growing up in Compton with a football tucked under his arm, or going to college at Columbia University, where he learned to survive Advanced Calculus and self-important pseudo-intellectuals. Or making it to the NFL against all odds, where he put together a ten-year career of massive paydays, massive painkillers, and massive sacks of everyone from Steve Young to Peyton Manning. Now, in Never Shut Up, Fox Sports' hottest rising persona doesn't hold back as he goes off on everything that's controversial with the game today, from concussions to political protests to inherent violence that's worse than the hood he grew up in. Not because he hates football, but because he wants to save it. Marcellus has never held back, even when a lot of people wanted him to. Now, he's letting it all hang out--right there on each page. Way more than just another book about the latest NFL scandals, this warm, moving, and genuinely funny story of awkward transitions, family loyalty, fame, fortune, and failure will make you fall in love with Marcellus--and football--all over again. In Never Shut Up, Marcellus will take you on a truly unique journey from Crenshaw to Broadway to the Buffalo Bills and back again, sometimes making you laugh, sometimes making you cry, but always leaving you entertained.

In "Canute the Great, 995 (circa)-1035, and the Rise of Danish Imperialism during the Viking Age," Laurence Marcellus Larson presents a meticulous examination of the life and rule of the influential Viking monarch Canute. Larson employs a scholarly narrative style, integrating a wealth of historical sources and archaeological evidence to create a vivid portrayal of Canute's empire, which extended beyond Denmark to include England and parts of Norway. The book situates Canute within the shifting power dynamics of the Viking Age, illuminating how his reign exemplified the triumphs and tribulations of a period characterized by conquest, cultural exchange, and the seeds of emerging nation-states. Laurence Marcellus Larson, a distinguished historian with a profound interest in Norse history and culture, draws on his extensive research in medieval studies to craft this compelling account. His academic background and rigorous scholarship allow Larson to connect Canute's achievements with broader themes of imperialism and identity during the Viking Age, reflecting on how Canute's legacy influenced subsequent generations in Northern Europe. Highly recommended for historians, students, and enthusiasts of medieval Europe, Larson's work is an indispensable text that not only chronicles the life of Canute the Great but also offers invaluable insights into the complexities of Viking imperialism and its enduring impact on European history.

Termeer, the narrator of A Posthumous Confession, is a twisted man and a troubled one. The emotionally stunted son of a cold, forbidding, and hypocritical father, Termeer has only succeeded in living up to his parents’ low expectations when, to his own and others’ astonishment, he finds himself wooing a beautiful and gifted woman—a woman whose love he wins. But instead of finding happiness in marriage, Termeer discovers it to be a new source of self-hatred, hatred that he turns upon his wife and child. And when he becomes caught up in an affair with a woman as demanding as his own self-loathing, he is driven to murder. What is the self, and how does it evade or come to terms with itself? What can make it go permanently, lethally wrong? Marcellus Emants’s grueling and gripping novel—a late-nineteenth-century tour de force of psychological penetration—is a lacerating exposition of the logic of identity that looks backward to Dostoyevsky, forward to Simenon, and beyond to the confessional literature, whether fiction or fact, of our own day.
