Download or read book Tall Dark Hungry written by Lynsay Sands and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Terri flew from England to New York to help plan her cousin Kate's wedding, she didn't know what she expected - but it certainly wasn't the Argeneaus. Her new in-laws may seem a little strange, with the sometimes-chipper sometimes-brooding writer Lucern - Kate's fiancee - and Vincent, the wacky stage actor (she couldn't imagine Broadway casting a hungrier looking all singing, all dancing Dracula), but having just discovered how expensive New York hotels can be, suddenly their offer of accomodation looks much more attractive. ... and then there's Bastien. Even taller, darker and hungrier looking than the other two, just looking into his eyes is enough to make Terri admit she's falling for him. Surely she can put up with the Argeneau's odd habits for a few days - to stay in their luxurious penthouse apartment, with the lovely Bastien - if it lets her avoid New York's blood-sucking hotel prices!

Download or read book Cold Hungry and in the Dark written by Bill Powers and published by New Society Publisher. This book was released on 2013-06-14 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An energy industry insider delivers hard truths about the reality of fracking. Conventional wisdom has North America entering a new era of energy abundance thanks to shale gas. But has industry been honest? Cold, Hungry and in the Dark argues that declining productivity combined with increasing demand will trigger a crisis that will cause prices to skyrocket, damage the economy, and have a profound impact on the lives of nearly every North American. Relying on faulty science, bought-and-paid-for-white papers masquerading as independent research and “industry consultants,” the “shale promoters” have vastly overstated the viable supply of shale gas resources for their own financial gain. This startling exposé, written by an industry insider, suggests that the stakes involved in the Enron scandal might seem like lunch money in comparison to the bursting of the natural gas bubble. Exhaustively researched and rigorously documented, Cold, Hungry and in the Dark: · Puts supply-and-demand trends under a microscope · Provides overwhelming evidence of the absurdity of the one hundred-year supply myth · Suggests numerous ways to mitigate the upcoming natural gas price spike The mainstream media has told us that natural gas will be cheap and plentiful for decades, when nothing could be further from the truth. Forewarned is forearmed. Cold, Hungry and in the Dark is vital reading for anyone concerned about the inevitable economic impact of our uncertain energy future. “Powers’s step-by-step dismantling of the abundance myth ought to alarm policymakers, corporate managers, investors, business owners, and concerned citizens alike.”—Kurt Cobb, author of Prelude and contributor to The Christian Science Monitor

Will the world that once slayed their own gods be ready for what comes next? A young man defies all known logic of the world’s system of magic. Is Sarien really broken, or is he the burning ember that is about to set the kingdom ablaze? The Broken Pyromancer Sarien yearns for a life of adventure, like his father’s. Instead, he’s stuck mucking out stables so the nobles don’t accidentally get dirt on their polished boots. His chance finally presents itself when a whole village’s worth of people suddenly disappears. The noble house’s oldest son needs extra men to hunt for whoever, or whatever, is responsible. Under cover of darkness, a ferocious beast attacks the group. In moments, they’re all on the ground, wounded and helpless. In a moment of desperation, Sarien discovers a swelling spark inside him. A flame dances in the palm of his hand, the flame of a pyromancer! Only, this one is stark white and cold, rather than burning hot. That’s wrong, all wrong. All pyromancers in Eldsprak are under the authority of The Burning Tower of Firemagi, even the broken ones. Sarien is finally getting the adventure he’s craved for so long, but will he burn strong, or smolder away? With otherworldly threats spilling into their world from somewhere beyond, Sarien and his newfound friends could be all that stands between this new threat and complete annihilation.

When Sarien finds himself stranded in a world without magic, he knows he must find a way back to his own world before it's too late. Maydian is under attack by invaders and horrific monsters both, and its fate might rest on Sarien's ability to return and stop them. Meanwhile, Goslin returns to his kingdom, Eldsprak, to find it under siege, teetering on the brink of destruction. Emeryn must navigate the deserted Kinship of Jordfaste and uncover the truth about her god's survival and the Kin's plans. Lana, a reluctant leader, returns home to rally the Loftians and discover her own strength. And Kax, afflicted by the dark void spreading across his body, is still Kax. Gatekeeper As the god Wyndemir's assault grinds to a temporary halt, Sarien must embark on a quest to find his enigmatic, long-lost mother—Anja, one of the legendary heroes and a formidable Gatekeeper. Can she unlock the secrets of Sarien's burgeoning gray flame, and pave the way to vanquishing the monstrous invaders plaguing Maydian? Meanwhile, the fallen and imprisoned deities of Maydian might be the key in this worlds-spanning web of intrigue, but their roles are shrouded in mystery. It falls upon Tomford, aided by Emeryn, to seek out the one god who still stands—Taera, the goddess of earth—and bring an end to her ominous reign. In the impending battle, they'll require every ounce of assistance they can muster. Yet, as the wayfaring paths between worlds spiral into chaos, these new heroes remain oblivious to the dire situation beyond their realm's borders. The very fabric of existence teeters on the brink of collapse, worlds rending themselves asunder. Unless someone intervenes, all could be lost. Is our broken pyromancer equal to the daunting task that lies ahead?
