Book excerpt: Among the mist of myth and legend lies a history more fascinating than the heroes that built it, the battles that plagued it, and the secrets it left behind. Edeline Depuis is no longer safe in her 14th century world. In a move to protect the young daughter of a great warrior in the Knights Templar, she is transported through time from her childhood home in medieval France to 21st century Los Angeles. She grows up unaware of her history, completely oblivious to the enormous destiny that awaits her. But there are those who know how special Edeline truly is. Some silently surround and protect her, while others only selfishly covet her power. It is the latter that have captured her and taken her back to the past, determined to exploit her mysterious abilities for untold fortune. Dane Walker has been sent back in time to rescue her and bring her home. As much a prisoner to this soldier who professes to help her as she is to the strange world she doesn’t understand, Edeline lets down her guard and begins to trust him. Hunted across a mystic land, trust leads to passion and romance. They fall in love, but Dane is tortured by a secret bound to tear them apart. By taking her home, he is destined to lose her.

Book excerpt: 1941 Britain: Children are vanishing from the village. Is it the powers of an ancient stone circle at work, or a modern predator? In mid-1941, children evacuated to the remote Shropshire village of Noddweir to escape the Blitz begin to vanish. It was not uncommon for city children faced with rural rigors to run away. But when retired American professor Edwin Carpenter, pursuing his study of standing stones, visits the village and discovers bloody clothing in the forest, it is clear there is a more sinister explanation. The village constable is away on military duty so the investigation falls to his daughter Grace. Some villagers see the hand of German infiltrators bent on terror. The superstitious, mindful of the prehistoric stone circle gazing down on Noddweir, are convinced malevolent supernatural powers are at work. And Edwin, determined to help Grace find whatever predator is in play, runs into widespread resentment over America's refusal to enter the war. This atmospheric mystery will appeal to readers of Rennie Airth, Maureen Jennings, and both Ann Cleeves and Ann Granger.

Download or read book The Koryak written by Waldemar Jochelson and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 886 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 18th century, researchers and scientists have traveled the peninsula of Kamchatka in the Russian Far East. Many of them were of German origin and had been commissioned by the Russian government to perform specific tasks. Their exhaustive descriptions and detailed reports are still considered some of the most valuable documents on the ethnography of the indigenous peoples of that part of the world. These works inform us about living conditions and particular ways of natural resource use at various times, and provide us with valuable background information for current assessment. As the first profound anthropological descriptions of that region, the publications of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition, undertaken in the first years of the 20th century, marked the beginning of a new era of research in Russia. They represented a shift of the already existing transnational research networks toward North America. Jochelson’s work The Koryak was an important milestone for Russian and North American anthropology that provides to this day a unique contribution to thoroughly understanding the cultures of the North Pacific rim.
