Book excerpt: From the award-winning author of, 'Yesterday's Falcon, ' comes a rich new adventure set against the backdrop of medieval Wales. When Torrance, Gawain's ten year old son is kidnapped, Gawain and his wife, Rhiannon, enlist the aid of Merlin to track down the traveling bard who took him. Their journey takes them through snowbound valleys and across the wild Celtic seas. But the kidnapping is only the beginning. Gawain and Rhiannon soon discover that Morganna, the Dark Druid who planned the abduction, is bent on using their son to find the fabled lost Runes. These mystical rune stones lie hidden in the depths of Khull Coome, a foreboding castle on the Irish coast. Neither Merlin's ancient art, nor Gawain's charmed sword are enough to thwart Morganna's plans. Somehow she always remains one step ahead, for she knows that revenge can make fools of us all. Praise for 'Yesterday's Falcon' . "Most intriguing is the interplay between the old ways of the Druids and the rise of Christianity, with Gawain serving as the fulcrum that unites the two worlds. By highlighting the influence of the Druids and allowing the two faiths to coexist, the author creates a harmonious mixture that offers intriguing possibilities for future tales. A worthy re-interpretation of the Grail legend and solid addition to the pantheon of Gawain stories."-Kirkus Discoveries "A richly detailed saga of medieval heroes and villains, Yesterday's Falcon is entertaining and recommended reading for action/adventure fantasy enthusiasts." five out of five stars.-Midwest Reviews

Download or read book Phoenix Rising written by Donald G. Lett and published by Phoenix Rising. This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an age when the supply of gasoline to feed this modern American society has become both more expensive and more scarce questions are being pondered. Inquires like, How can a modern society scale back its dependence on gasoline as a motive source?' Are there genuine alternative power sources?' Are they the answer to a growing crisis?' Recent announcements of hybrids like those from Honda, Toyota, and Ford have really brought attention to this issue. Hybrids that use both gasoline engines and electric motors. Really, though, alternative power sources have been around for as long as the automobile has been. The battle between and among the steam car, the electric and the gas car was fought out in the first couple of decades of the twentieth century. This book explores the ins and outs of that battle. A struggle from which the gasoline car emerged completely victorious. To such an extent that steam cars and electric cars virtually disappeared from the scene for many decades. We will look over all three alternatives, exploring their advantages and disadvantages. We will also look over the obstacles to the steamers and the electrics. Barriers that still exist to a certain extent. Handicaps that caused their disappearance in the first place.

Fueled with idealistic courage and no knowledge of the land outside his father's realm, Baytel abandons his birthright and duties and begins a journey to fulfill the destiny he senses within himself. His quest leads him to become a Citadel Druid, skilled in the healing arts and self-reliance. He devotes himself to enabling peaceful coexistence among the many sects of humanity who inhabit the One Land. All this is in grave conflict with his father's and brother's plans of conquest. Through mysteries and battles that leave him severely at odds with his father's ideas of domination, Baytel's quest leads him to learn of his grandfather he had never met, his ancestry in a powerful sect, and a magic of the ages emerging within him. His adventures unite him with a group of men and women with particular individual skills and resourcefulness. To bring peace requires violent counteraction, brilliant quick thinking, steadfastness, a bit of humor, and magical happenings, all enveloped in their devotion to the quest and the ripening of friendships. Baytel's globe is breathtakingly real, in an era of castles, blacksmiths, pulsing forests and swamps, magic and spirits, self-sustaining villages, and diverse beings and creatures--a living earth with individuals of honor and evil. 1

Book excerpt: “The powerful origin story of one of Yellowstone’s greatest and most famous wolves.” —Washington Post “[The Rise of Wolf 8] is a goldmine for information on all aspects of wolf behavior and clearly shows they are clever, smart, and emotional beings.” —Marc Bekoff, Psychology Today Yellowstone National Park was once home to an abundance of wild wolves—but park rangers killed the last of their kind in the 1920s. Decades later, the rangers brought them back, with the first wolves arriving from Canada in 1995. This is the incredible true story of one of those wolves. Wolf 8 struggles at first—he is smaller than the other pups, and often bullied—but soon he bonds with an alpha female whose mate was shot. An unusually young alpha male, barely a teenager in human years, Wolf 8 rises to the occasion, hunting skillfully, and even defending his family from the wolf who killed his father. But soon he faces a new opponent: his adopted son, who mates with a violent alpha female. Can Wolf 8 protect his valley without harming his protégé? Authored by a renowned wolf researcher and gifted storyteller, The Rise of Wolf 8 marks the beginning of The Alpha Wolves of Yellowstone series, which will transform our view of wolves forever.
