She comes from a distinguished line of huntresses, and is expected to follow in their path. Unfortunately, the only thing Ren is interested in hunting is knowledge. When her curiosity over a mysterious discovery costs her the initiation hunt, her mother banishes her from the family den. Devastated, Ren is determined to redeem herself. Her chance comes when she takes part in an exchange of young gryfons and journeys to the Silver Isles. Instead of adventure and fellowship, Ren and the others find a pride suffering strange calamities, and a deadly, sweeping illness that has driven them from their home island. Gryfons are dying, and Ren sets out to find answers. She thinks the disasters and the illness might be connected to her discovery at home, and if she’s right, she could save the pride. But if she's wrong, they will all pay the price.
Download or read book Dragonstar written by Barbara Hambly and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2009-02-04 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novels of New York Times bestselling author Barbara Hambly have broken new ground in the realm of fantasy. With a sweeping cast of characters whose powers are both awesome and heartachingly limited, the Dragon series is built around the touching relationship between a husband and wife separated by a flood of violence and chaos. Condemned to die for consorting with demons, dragonslayer Lord John Aversin sits in a dank prison cell and calculates the odds of escape, while smelling the smoke of the executioners’ pyres. In Winterlands, Jenny Waynest pays a heavy price for choosing to be human, mourning the loss of her husband, Lord John, and the dangers that engulf her family. But in a season of the Dragon Star, strange miracles are about to transpire. As a pitched battle between the Hellspawn and the human rages, Jenny and John will be reunited in a city under siege. And there, they will have one last chance to understand all that has happened to them and why, who their true enemies and true allies are, and most of all, for what magical purpose each has been chosen. A vast adventure and a powerful mystery teeming with demons and witches, gnomes and dragons, Dragonstar explores profound issues of faith, fate, and technology–while obscuring long held boundaries between good and evil, love and hate, what is human and what is fantastic. With this glorious finale to a breathtaking series, Barbara Hambly establishes herself as one of the most visionary and inventive storytellers in the field of fantasy fiction today.

Download or read book Science Fact and Science Fiction written by Brian Stableford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-06 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science fiction is a literary genre based on scientific speculation. Works of science fiction use the ideas and the vocabulary of all sciences to create valid narratives that explore the future effects of science on events and human beings. Science Fact and Science Fiction examines in one volume how science has propelled science-fiction and, to a lesser extent, how science fiction has influenced the sciences. Although coverage will discuss the science behind the fiction from the Classical Age to the present, focus is naturally on the 19th century to the present, when the Industrial Revolution and spectacular progress in science and technology triggered an influx of science-fiction works speculating on the future. As scientific developments alter expectations for the future, the literature absorbs, uses, and adapts such contextual visions. The goal of the Encyclopedia is not to present a catalog of sciences and their application in literary fiction, but rather to study the ongoing flow and counterflow of influences, including how fictional representations of science affect how we view its practice and disciplines. Although the main focus is on literature, other forms of science fiction, including film and video games, are explored and, because science is an international matter, works from non-English speaking countries are discussed as needed.

Book excerpt: There is a whole world of Prophesies in each page of the Bible. My purpose is to shed light on these prophesies for all of the world to see. This is the summarization of 50 years of study and research over scriptures. Presented with many questions that neither theologians nor ministers could answer, then becoming frustrated and disgusted over the lack of resolutions to my questions. God told me that if I would continue to pray, read, and research the word of God that He would reveal to me all of these answers to my questions. The books of this series of prophetic studies are designed to reveal all that God has presented to me over this 50 year period of study. The prophesies of these series of books are designed to give individuals more depth and a broader understanding of the word of God. For a much more expansive view to reveal God's plan for all of man from even before He began all of creation. None of these prophetic insights change in any way the basic and true meaning of the scriptures but only show the broader view of God's plan for a clearer revelation from the beginning to the end.

Download or read book East Asian Archaeoastronomy written by Zhenoao Xu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-11-17 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical astronomical records can play an important role in modern research, especially in the case of ancient Chinese observational data: sunspot and aurora records are important for the study of solar variability; solar and lunar eclipse records for the study of the Earth's rotation; records of Comet Hally for the study of orbital evolution; "guest star" records for the study of supernova remnants; planetary conjunction records for research in astronomical chronology. In the past, Western scientists have not been able to exploit these valuable data fully because the original records were difficult to gather and interpret, and complete English translations have not been available. East-Asian Archaeoastronomy is the first comprehensive translation into English of such historical records for modern research. The book also features an introduction to East Asian astronomy and offers guidance on how to use the records effectively. It will not only be a valuable research tool for astronomers but should also be of great interest to historians of China and Chinese science.
