Book excerpt: Did you know that Heaven’s soundtrack is disco? Neither did Blue. She found out on the welcome tour. Blue didn’t mean to leave her family and new allies when they needed her most, but that’s exactly what she did. In her defense, she didn’t think the silly prophecy about dragons would ever come true. But she has faith. They will be just fine without her. It was just a teensy misunderstanding. And a measly magic arrow. A fluke, really. Devon has no idea how this happened. One minute, the surviving members of the newly expanded Hounds of Dawn were fleeing for their lives and reeling from devastating losses and injuries. The young lady they promised to protect, the Nova, and her daughter were still missing. And the deranged human flamethrower who killed their friends and sought to use the Nova’s magic to seize control of the Cahlad still breathed and planned to kill the rest of them. The next minute, they had accidentally triggered the dawn of a new age of magic. How were they supposed to know a few simple words spoken in the heat of the moment could change the course of history? Now they are holed up in the home of a notorious criminal with nudist tendencies at each other’s throats and completely out of their depth. People are still trying to kill them and new enemies emerge with even more sinister intentions. Don’t even mention the margarita machine, the foul-mouthed grandmother, and the flock of enraged geese. But if they don’t get it together, the new age of magic they just ushered in will be a return to the dark ages instead of a renaissance. If you enjoy heroes that take dysfunctional to whole new level, heart pounding shenanigans and magic fueled suspense, you will love the gripping third installment of H.S. Torben’s urban fantasy series Hounds of Dawn.

Download or read book The Flying Zoo written by Michael Stock and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “My work as a scientist who studies bird parasites causes me to wonder about the hidden part of the drama unfolding before my eyes: the flying zoo that makes each bird what it is. As I gaze out at my favourite birds, I wonder what role their parasites have played in shaping their fascinating behaviours and alluring appearance.” — From Chapter 1 In The Flying Zoo, Michael Stock gives readers an enthusiastic tribute to birds and the parasites that live in and on them. From the Crozet Archipelago and the Galapagos Islands to our own backyards, parasites—fleas, lice, ticks, and flukes—live in a sinister yet symbiotic relationship with their host birds. With a scientist’s exuberance, Stock reveals a co-evolutionary dance among an astounding cast of creatures living in a complex and paradoxical co-habitation. Following in the footsteps of Fleas, Flukes and Cuckoos, this contemporary classic deserves a place on the shelves of students and teachers of biology, natural history buffs, and birders.

Download or read book The Disastrous Fall and Triumphant Rise of the Fleet Air Arm from 1912 to 1945 written by Henry Hank Adlam and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this riveting critique of the Fleet Air Arm's policy across two world wars, former FAA Fighter Pilot Henry Adlam charts the course of its history from 1912 to 1945, logging the various milestones, mistakes and successes that characterised the service history of the Fleet Air Arm. Offering criticism on the service hierarchies that made up the Fleet, backed up by his having served in six Carriers and flown from them in all five theatres of sea warfare during five years of the Second World War, Adlam presents a highly entertaining and potentially controversial study which is sure to appeal to a wide array of aviation enthusiasts.??Adlam charts the catalogue of errors that blighted the history of the Naval Air Service, which followed the disastrous decision in April 1918 to transfer the whole of the Air Service of the Royal Navy to form the new RAF. The main and over-riding criticism that the author finds with the Fleet Air Arm lies in the manner in which it was led. Adapting the oft-quoted "Lions led by Donkeys" description of the British Army, Adlam describes the activities of the Fleet Air Arm in the Second World War as the result of "Sea Eagles led by Penguins" practices, when experienced pilots were led into battle by senior members of the Navy who possessed little or no flying experience. This led to a whole host of disasters costing many lives amongst flight personnel. Adlam charts the errors that blighted the history of the Fleet Air Arm and shows how its recovery and the triumphant turnaround of its fortunes were all the more remarkable. Taking the reader on a journey from inception during First World War service, throughout all the many disasters and successes that followed between the Wars and on into the Second World War and beyond, this book offers engaging new insights and a degree of critical candour that set it apart from other Fleet Air Arm histories currently available on the market.

Download or read book Into Great Silence written by Eva Saulitis and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2013-01-15 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science entwines with matters of the human heart as a whale researcher chronicles the lives of an endangered family of orcas Ever since Eva Saulitis began her whale research in Alaska in the 1980s, she has been drawn deeply into the lives of a single extended family of endangered orcas struggling to survive in Prince William Sound. Over the course of a decades-long career spent observing and studying these whales, and eventually coming to know them as individuals, she has, sadly, witnessed the devastation wrought by the Exxon Valdez oil spill of 1989—after which not a single calf has been born to the group. With the intellectual rigor of a scientist and the heart of a poet, Saulitis gives voice to these vital yet vanishing survivors and the place they are so loyal to. Both an elegy for one orca family and a celebration of the entire species, Into Great Silence is a moving portrait of the interconnectedness of humans with animals and place—and of the responsibility we have to protect them.
