Book excerpt: The lost warriors are rising. Montana: Vengeance calls upon the wind. What Wolfe has done is unforgivable, and he'll pay for everything he has taken from us. But after my choice was made at the ceremony, I'm now trapped with the prince I chose, and the path ahead is draped in peril. A wedding looms upon me, and if I can't find a way to escape, I will soon be a monster's bride. Erik's promises fall like fire to ash, and I fear there's no way out now I've chosen a life of chains in payment for those broken vows. But when the gods of old whisper of a new destiny, there may be hope in treading the dangerous road they've laid at my feet. Or perhaps this path is steeped in more danger than I've ever known. Callie: My choice has cost me everything. My will is bound, and my fate is no longer my own. In my loss, I chose the bloody path of revenge, so now I must make the most of these gifts I've been offered. My veins run thick with the power of the slayers, and uncovering each skill is like finding drops of sunlight in the darkest of nights. I must hold on to what these strengths can offer me, and not dwell on what they have taken. Magnar and I are held apart by the gods, and my want for him is ruled by Idun herself. We will never be together again, but I'll pay that price if it leads me back to my sister. I just pray my heart can take another ruinous wound.

Download or read book Parallel Minds written by Laura Tripaldi and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insights into the intelligence throughout the natural and technical environment, in the fabric of our devices and dwellings, in our clothes, and under our skin. Is there a way to understand the materials that surround us not as passive objects, but as other intelligences interacting with our own? In Parallel Minds, expert in materials science and nanotechnology Laura Tripaldi delivers not only detailed insights into the properties and emergent behaviors of matter as revealed by state-of-the-art chemistry, synthetic biology, and nanotech, but also a rich philosophical reflection that crosses the frontier between nature and culture, where the most cutting-edge scientific syntheses resonate with ancient myth. The result is a technomaterial bestiary full of unexpected encounters with “strange minds”—from cobwebs to kevlar and carbon fibre, from centaurs to amoebas to arachnids, from polycephalic slime to resonating plasmons, from viruses to golems. Parallel Minds reveals the intelligence at large throughout the natural and technical environment, in the fabric of our devices and dwellings, in our clothes, and even under our skin. Full of lateral ideas and unexpected images, Tripaldi’s book imbues the study and synthesis of materials with a new urgency. For not only do the materials that surround us participate actively in the construction of the world in which we live, but harnessing their ability to interact intelligently with their environment could be the key to the future of our species.

Book excerpt: From political intrigue in Washington to an idyllic island in the Pacific based on a true incident in Samoa, 1889 Stockton Livingstone is one of President Grover Cleveland's most trusted advisors and a mainstay of the State Department until his wife dies tragically and he takes a leave of absence to be with his family. But as tensions escalate between the three great powers---England, Germany, and America---over a coaling station on the tiny island of Samoa, the President asks Stockton to return to his duties and accept the post of Ambassador to Samoa. He reluctantly agrees, on the condition that he may take his six children with him. When the Livingstones arrive in Samoa, they find that German forces have effectively set up a puppet regime, using a disgruntled Samoan chief as the figurehead ruler. As tensions between the mighty warships gathered in Apia Bay continue to heighten, Stockton must face the fact that his nation is on the brink of war. But all of the players in this drama suddenly must do battle against a foe mightier than any warship: the great Samoan hurricane of 1889. Will this war prove to be their last?

Download or read book The Monsters Know What They re Doing written by Keith Ammann and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular blog The Monsters Know What They’re Doing comes a compilation of villainous battle plans for Dungeon Masters. In the course of a Dungeons & Dragons game, a Dungeon Master has to make one decision after another in response to player behavior—and the better the players, the more unpredictable their behavior! It’s easy for even an experienced DM to get bogged down in on-the-spot decision-making or to let combat devolve into a boring slugfest, with enemies running directly at the player characters and biting, bashing, and slashing away. In The Monsters Know What They’re Doing, Keith Ammann lightens the DM’s burden by helping you understand your monsters’ abilities and develop battle plans before your fifth edition D&D game session begins. Just as soldiers don’t whip out their field manuals for the first time when they’re already under fire, a DM shouldn’t wait until the PCs have just encountered a dozen bullywugs to figure out how they advance, fight, and retreat. Easy to read and apply, The Monsters Know What They're Doing is essential reading for every DM.
