Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A HERO IS BORN! His name is Dr. Bones. His adventures will take him across a perilous galaxy in search of lost cities, secret empires, and vanished species. And sometimes into exploits when his background makes him the best man for a dangerous job . . . From nowhere they came, the mysterious aliens called the Lona. The races of our galaxy tried to communicate with them and failed. The Lona were not interested in talking; they had come to crush the galaxy into submission and rule it with absolute power. Ezekiel Bones is Earth’s secret weapon. He alone stands a chance of finding a way to defeat the Lona. He has learned all the ways of war, and has become a member of the top-secret mercenary army, the Legion of Ares. Yet his real strength against the Lona will be his ability to penetrate the workings of a monstrous alien mind and learn how Earth can fight back. But can Dr. Bones think like a monster without becoming a monster himself?

Download or read book A Journey Round My Skull written by Frigyes Karinthy and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2008-03-11 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The distinguished Hungarian author Frigyes Karinthy was sitting in a Budapest café, wondering whether to write a long-planned monograph on modern man or a new play, when he was disturbed by the roaring—so loud as to drown out all other noises—of a passing train. Soon it was gone, only to be succeeded by another. And another. Strange, Karinthy thought, it had been years since Budapest had streetcars. Only then did he realize he was suffering from an auditory hallucination of extraordinary intensity. What in fact Karinthy was suffering from was a brain tumor, not cancerous but hardly benign, though it was only much later—after spells of giddiness, fainting fits, friends remarking that his handwriting had altered, and books going blank before his eyes—that he consulted a doctor and embarked on a series of examinations that would lead to brain surgery. Karinthy’s description of his descent into illness and his observations of his symptoms, thoughts, and feelings, as well as of his friends’ and doctors’ varied responses to his predicament, are exact and engrossing and entirely free of self-pity. A Journey Round My Skull is not only an extraordinary piece of medical testimony, but a powerful work of literature—one that dances brilliantly on the edge of extinction.
Download or read book Harpsong written by Rilla Askew and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-19 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harlan Singer, a harmonica-playing troubadour, shows up in the Thompson family’s yard one morning. He steals their hearts with his music, and their daughter with his charm. Soon he and his fourteen-year-old bride, Sharon, are on the road, two more hobos of the Great Depression, hitchhiking and hopping freights across the Great Plains in search of an old man and the settlement of Harlan’s long-standing debt. Finding shelter in hobo jungles and Hoovervilles, the newlyweds careen across the 1930s landscape in a giant figure eight with Oklahoma in the middle. Sharon’s growing doubts about her husband’s quest set in motion events that turn Harlan Singer into a hero while blinding her to the dark secret of his journey. A love story infused with history and folk tradition, Harpsong shows what happened to the friends and neighbors Steinbeck’s Joads left behind. In this moving, redemptive tale inspired by Oklahoma folk heroes, Rilla Askew continues her exploration of the American story. Harpsong is a novel of love and loss, of adventure and renewal, and of a wayfaring orphan’s search for home—all set to the sounds of Harlan’s harmonica. It shows us the strength and resilience of a people who, in the face of unending despair, maintain their faith in the land.
