Book excerpt: Hugo Award winner Ben Bova continues his grand tour of the human settled solar system with a fan-pleasing look at life in the Outer Planets, among the moons of Neptune. In the future, humanity has spread throughout the solar system, on planets and moons once visited only by robots or explored at a distance by far-voyaging spacecraft. No matter how hostile or welcoming the environment, mankind has forged a path and found a home. In the far reaches of the solar system, the outer planets—billions of miles from Earth, unknown for millennia—are being settled. Neptune, the ice giant, is swathed in clouds of hydrogen, helium, and methane and circled by rings of rock and dust. Three years ago, Ilona Magyr’s father, Miklos, disappeared while exploring the seas of Neptune. Everyone believes he is dead—crushed, frozen, or boiled alive in Neptune’s turbulent seas. With legendary space explorer Derek Humbolt piloting her ship and planetary scientist Jan Meitner guiding the search, Ilona Magyr knows she will find her father—alive—on Neptune. Her plans are irrevocably altered when she and her team discover the wreckage of an alien ship deep in Neptune’s ocean, a discovery which changes humanity’s understanding of its future...and its past.

Download or read book Free Range Kids How to Raise Safe Self Reliant Children Without Going Nuts with Worry written by Lenore Skenazy and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-04-19 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FREE RANGE KIDS has become a national movement, sparked by the incredible response to Lenore Skenazy?s piece about allowing her 9-year-old ride the subway alone in NYC. Parent groups argued about it, bloggers, blogged, spouses became uncivil with each other, and the media jumped all over it. A lot of parents today, Skenazy says, see no difference between letting their kids walk to school and letting them walk through a firing range. Any risk is seen as too much risk. But if you try to prevent every possible danger or difficult in your child?s everyday life, that child never gets a chance to grow up. We parents have to realize that the greatest risk of all just might be trying to raise a child who never encounters choice or independence.

Now, the absentee goddess who created the species is sending him and his brothers on an ill-timed mate hunt. And her message, for once, is clear: convince a stranger to become his mate, or else. When Ellery Colvard embarks on a camping trip with her two best friends, she expects bonding and maybe a little adventure, not to be kidnapped by a supernatural menace for the second time in a year. But this time, she’s nobody’s victim. The witch is prepared to use every trick in her arsenal to escape. But…she’s not entirely sure she’s supposed to. Powerful entities seem to be conspiring to push the two reluctant parties together, but can they trust the magic is real? Because if it isn’t, Mason may be cursed to spend the rest of his days roaming in his four-legged form—a bad deal for a father of an infant son.

Book excerpt: Bubble Catcher Silhouettes of Smoke Show-Biz Screenplay Follows Two Small-town Girls Chasing Big-city Dreams NEW YORK – Two young sisters from Iowa embark on their lifelong dream to become actresses in New York City in Lawrence J. Corneck’s enthralling new screenplay, Bubble Catcher. But their aspirations change dramatically when they meet and team up with an Eastern-European mobster, Armond, in a story that challenges the lengths we’re willing to go – and those we’re willing to betray – for fame, money and power. Ardelle and her sister Tiffany have always been flung into competition with one another, ever since their mother played a disturbing game to determine which daughter she would raise and which one she would send off to an orphanage. Though Ardelle was given away, Tiffany still remained close to her and over time they cemented their bond, relying on one another for strength and support and finally chasing their shared dream of becoming real actresses all the way to the mean streets of New York. But New York has other plans for the two sisters as small-time mobster, Armond, latches onto Ardelle who quickly takes on the persona of Neptune, a rising starlet of the stage. Tiffany is otherwise shunned by her sister and Armond, Ardelle’s self-proclaimed agent who utilizes his fists to make things happen for Ardelle. But Tiffany finds an ally in Tan, Armond's hulking enemy. The four then vie for a role in producer Garrity Desmond’s new production. Cutthroat competition and a desperate need for fame and fortune tear at these characters, driving them to extremes of success and failure. Will their greed and betrayal take its final toll? Find out in the well-paced, riveting pages of Bubble Catcher.

Download or read book Wind Fire and Ice written by Robert M. Bunes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1955 and 1987, the United States Coast Guard Cutter Glacier was the largest and most powerful icebreaker in the free world. Consequently, it was often given the most difficult and dangerous Antarctic missions. This is the dramatic first-person account of its most legendary voyage. In 1970, the author was the Chief Medical Officer on the Glacier when it became trapped deep in the Weddell Sea, pressured by 100 miles of wind-blown icepack. Glacier was beset within seventy miles of where Sir Ernest Shackleton’s ship, the Endurance, was imprisoned in 1915. His stout wooden ship succumbed to the crushing pressure of the infamous Weddell Sea pack ice and sank, leading to an unbelievable two-year saga of hardship, heroism and survival. The sailors aboard the Glacier feared they would suffer Shackleton’s fate, or one even worse. Freakishly good luck eventually saved the Glacier from destruction in the crushing ice pack, only to experience a three-hour fire that nearly killed one of the crew, followed by eighty foot waves that came close to capsizing the ship. Wind, Fire, and Ice is a story about a physician who starts out with a set of false assumptions—namely that he is going have an easy assignment and see numerous exotic ports, but then slowly comes to realize a much different hard reality.
