Book excerpt: Wrong place Wrong time Right Alien Marakz is the hottest man I've ever met, of any species. Also, the most insufferable. Though my holographic cat, Lord Pouncington, adores him-and he's always wary of strangers. I'm not visiting the Zrin to meet guys, though. It's supposed to be a safe diplomatic mission, a chance to meet Crashland's natives and learn about them. Instead, everything's on fire, the Zrin are fighting each other, and Marakz has dragged me into the wilderness. Did he rescue me from the wreck of our embassy, or capture me for himself? I can't decide which is true. Not while all I can think about is his sizzling-hot body, a six-pack that sets me on fire, and eyes that stare straight into my soul. All that, and a devilishly versatile tail. We both have reasons to go back, to salvage something from the disaster. My friends are back there, in need of rescue, along with the Zrin Marakz swore to protect. And our enemies who started this mess are waiting for us too. Will the blazing attraction between us light our way into a future together? Or will we burn out as we face the chaos we're walking into?

He has been coming into his own for some time now with no credit from his regularly condescending father. Being repeatedly shut down when he attempts to join the discussion table with his father's contemporaries, he is slowly realizing that his father does not plan to allow him any real power in the kingdom. Annaisha is a keen, selective, and vastly powerful woman. Usually quite able to run her planetoid retreat without a hitch, she has been noticing her droids coming down with an infection that matches very few documented droid sicknesses on the books. It could ruin her business entirely, but more importantly all of the people she regularly helps with her retreat space would be lacking the high quality of therapeutic attention she has been providing since she took over the regular running of the planetoid for her uncle. Zhanshi's kingdom may be able to "help," for a "price." She soon learns that his father, the king, intends for them to marry for his own nefarious reasons.

Download or read book Politics Social Justice written by Ernest Emenyo̲nu and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2014 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special issue focuses on literary texts by African writers in which the protagonist returns to his/her 'original' or ancestral 'home' in Africa from other parts of the world. Ideas of return - intentional and actual - have been a consistent feature of the literature of Africa and the African diaspora: from Equiano's autobiography in 1789 to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's 2013 novel 'Americanah'. African literature has represented returnees in a range of locations and dislocations including having a sense of belonging, being alienated in a country they can no longer recognize, or experiencing a multiple sense of place. Contributors, writing on literature from the 1970s to the present, examine the extent to which the original place can be reclaimed with or without renegotiations of 'home'. Articles on Nuruddin Farah, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Pede Hollist, Ayi Kwei Amah, Dinaw Mengestu, Benjamin Kwakye. Interview with Tendai Huchu. Featured Articles by Bernth Lindfors, Eustace Palmer & Helen Chukwuma. Literary supplement : four poems by Tsitsi Ella Jaji .

Mourning a past they can't reclaim, they seek solace in each other. But the tentative existence they've built for themselves is thrown into doubt when Frida finds out she's pregnant. Terrified of the unknown and unsure of their ability to raise a child alone, Cal and Frida set out for the nearest settlement, a guarded and paranoid community with dark secrets.

Download or read book Freshwater Biodiversity written by David Dudgeon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing human populations and higher demands for water impose increasing impacts and stresses upon freshwater biodiversity. Their combined effects have made these animals more endangered than their terrestrial and marine counterparts. Overuse and contamination of water, overexploitation and overfishing, introduction of alien species, and alteration of natural flow regimes have led to a 'great thinning' and declines in abundance of freshwater animals, a 'great shrinking' in body size with reductions in large species, and a 'great mixing' whereby the spread of introduced species has tended to homogenize previously dissimilar communities in different parts of the world. Climate change and warming temperatures will alter global water availability, and exacerbate the other threat factors. What conservation action is needed to halt or reverse these trends, and preserve freshwater biodiversity in a rapidly changing world? This book offers the tools and approaches that can be deployed to help conserve freshwater biodiversity.

By drawing on issues at the core of contemporary archaeology and anthropology, we can be much better prepared for contact with an extraterrestrial civilization, should that day ever come.
