Book excerpt: Only a week after a fierce battle in the abandoned scrapyard against the wicked horde of large insect-bots known as The Others, culminating in their destruction when the huge Mars Biosphere spaceship blasted its way out of the scrapyard, Alex Faraway waits impatiently for his long-missing father's promised return from that planet. But Dart, Alex's large, robotic Guardian Dragonfly, is unsure if the sinister creatures from his own past are gone for good. The robot flies regular patrols over the 100 acre scrapyard until one morning he abruptly disappears. Alex goes in search of his adventurous friend, unaware that the plot to invade Mars and destroy the last remaining Martians before they awaken from their hibernation Time Tombs is far from finished. The battle from the previous week has only added weight to the might of The Others and has triggered the arrival in the scrapyard of an ever more powerful robot - one with brutish motivation to complete the creation of a deadly machine from ten thousand years ago. And now, not only is Mars in their sites, but Earth is as well. Something new, powerful, and frightening is also happening to Alex Faraway with each passing day and each time he uses the strange Martian-made device called a Luss. His nightly dreams of an ancient people long forgotten are growing more physical in nature as the Glass Tunnels blur the immutable barrier between past and present, dreams and reality. The Ghosts and the Nethlins are coming. And all the while, the unknown rogue world, the shadowy Planet X, draws ever nearer to its ten-thousand-year close-encounter with Mars. What mysteries from the distant past does that strange glittering world hold?
Download or read book The Faraway Mountains written by Radu Guiasu and published by Histria Books. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dark chapter in recent human history The first part of this novel follows the adventures of three young friends during a memorable last mountain climbing trip to a remote area of a country under the control of a ruthless authoritarian regime. During their journey, the young men have to cope with: bear encounters,venomous adders,colorful locals, storms,dangerous climbs,flooded caves, and other challenges, as the main purpose of their trip is gradually revealed. A second story, intertwined with the first one, focuses on a brilliant young pianist and his ill-fated quest for freedom. Urban life, in the dreary capital where the young men regularly reside, is the focus of the second part of the novel, when the friends begin to go their own separate ways and come to terms with their very different future prospects. The challenges of life in the capital, which include run-ins with feral dog packs and the secret police, are very different than those faced in the mountains, but not less dangerous. Ultimately, this is a book about friendship, the noble, irreverent and indomitable aspects of the human condition, as well as a dark chapter in recent human history, and the various ways in which different people cope with difficult and unfair conditions. It is an often hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking exploration of the absurdities of life under an increasingly erratic dictatorship which is gradually losing its grip on the people it could never fully control.

Download or read book Far Away Run the Roads written by Margarita Borkaev and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Margarita Borkaev (Borukaeva) has a romantic profession. She is a "microbe hunter," and she pursued her prey with great ardor in some of the most prestigious laboratories of the Soviet Union. Then fate willed her to the front lines of microbiology in the United States of America. Undoubtedly, the riddles of this science seemed to her fantastically fascinating in light of the romantic nature of her soul, which, from her earliest adolescence manifested itself in its pull to find self-expression in poetry. Thus arose her first collection of poems (published in Moscow). Poems from those giving a lyric voice to important social issues, to poems that chronicled the joys, the vicissitudes, and the sorrows of love and sought to embody the beauty of nature were written throughout her entire life. These poems appear regularly in the Russian-speaking American newspapers. Margarita also took a great interest in prose. Her essays, stories, and short novels have been published in American (in English) and Russian-American (in Russian) magazines and newspapers. R ecently, she has published this book in Russia. The book is based on autobiographical events, but includes stories about people involved in Margarita's life, and reflects conflicts she experienced in the Soviet Union. The content of some of the stories in this book is dramatic, but the style is so lyrical that it reminds one of verse in prose form. The book was instantly absorbed and disseminated by her readers. I found to reading this book effortless, entirely engrossing, since in it is reflected all of the facets of Margarita's character, her openness towards new people and new experiences, her friendliness, her unlimited capacity for compassion and understanding. Margarita has a remarkable ability understand of the core of a person and then to describe it with such affection and sympathy that, as a reader, I felt I shared not just her adventures, but also her friendships. I advise you to read this book as a long time friend and an old admirer of Margarita's talent. I am certain, that like me, once you begin it will capture your imagination until you reach the final paragraph. And, like me, long after you close the cover you will still reflect on the extraordinary events you will have found there, and the unpredictable twist of fate that can be expected us all.

Now getting a call from his first time partner, Jason Roberts, after they had completed the police academy years ago, Jason was now a corporate attorney in Camden, IL. Having been receiving threatening calls and notes slipped under his door to drop a case involving corporate embezzlements, as if he needed more turmoil in his life, Jason had already lost his son in a car accident, when the family had gone on vacation through the Smoky Mountains. There, they had lost control of their car, when a passerby saw what had happened, and tried to save Jason, his wife, their daughter, and their son, who had been diagnosed with a rare blood disease. Unable to get to the son in time, the car exploded, leaving him to die in front of his family. Sadly this was the last thing their daughter, Lori, saw just before losing her eye sight, because of it. Now, Alex is on his way to Jasons office to help in any way he could, which usually meant going into disguise, this time as a Corporate Attorney. What they didnt know, was Jasons partner, Epstein, was involved, and a man connected to him had threatened harm to Jasons family. Thus, once again, Alexs team was pulled back together to bring the hammer down on these men, but not before finding out his team had transferred from Detective rank to Federal Marshals, against his wishes. You cant keep a good team apart.
