Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heatherbound is an agricultural planet, newly settled by dissidents from Great Britain. Kendell McCreight, a brilliant biochemist, and one of the original colonists, searches for a plant that would be of value to Earth for trade purposes. If he does not find something, Heatherbound could become an economic slave to Earth. In his search he discovers the Dasurainians, a powerful telepathic alien race. They are stranded on Heatherbound, which is to them a very warm planet. Kendell aids them with cryogenics so that they may hibernate until a planet they have genetically altered grows enough fuel for their spaceship to take them home. In exchange for his assistance, they give him a plant that when processed becomes a lightweight metal, stronger than steel. One hundred years later, his grandson, Cameron, races against time to save the Dasurainians, when he hears their telepathic cry for help. Earth covets Heatherbound for the seemingly endless cornucopia of valuable plants and sends a fleet to invade and conquer.

Owens built a world where psychic talents and desires of the heart flourish. Now, she returns to Celta with a story of star-crossed lovers... Healer Lark Collinson hates the street dueling that is a way of life among the noble families on Celta--it was just such a skirmish that killed her Healer husband and left her a grieving widow. The last thing she wants is to love a man to whom fighting is a way of life--a man like the brashly confident Holm Holly. All it takes is one brief touch for Holm to know that Lark is his HeartMate, though wooing her will be his greatest challenge. For not only does she despise everything he represents, but the long-standing feud between their families has exploded into even greater violence. Their destiny has been revealed...but at what cost to their own hearts?

Download or read book Scottish Vernacular Furniture written by Bernard D. Cotton and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Part of the appeal of vernacular furniture - a relatively recent field of serious study - is that to understand it we must look closely at social history, and engage with lifestyles that range from self-sufficient to sophisticated." "Bernard Cotton investigated museums and libraries; but whenever possible he and his wife Gerry made it a priority to discover pieces in their contexts, to meet the people who used them, and to understand how they were made. The story of their quest is itself an adventure. Some of the objects they photographed - on, for instance, the deserted northern island of Stroma - represent the life and death of a community, the vital evidence of a vanished culture."--BOOK JACKET.
