Book excerpt: This book is free out of respect for your right not to like the story. The Guardian Lineage, which has managed to survive since the time of King Jehoshaphat and become a secret organisation within the United Nations, has begun to question its purpose under the leadership of Darius Bratt. Was it really to prevent the evil that lurked underground from rising to the surface? In the end, they decided to send the seven youths they had chosen, following the descriptions in the ancient inscriptions, through a now-forgotten door. All they had to do was explore underground for twenty-four hours and bring back information. At the end of the time, however, none of the explorers managed to return. While the members of the Guardian Lineage struggled with the difficult decisions they had to make, the seven young people found themselves in the middle of a battle that had been going on for hundreds of years and had been forgotten by mankind. In order to see the light of day again, they had to fulfil their new mission among the Guards, the Guardian, the Shadowless, the Jewels, the Two-Faced Warriors, the Whippers and, of course, the Ancient Sorcerers, albeit unintentionally. Time, which had stood still for centuries, began to work against humanity once again. Excerpts from reviews on the Google Play Store, in the original language. - I think the author likes excitement, action and making events impossible to solve. He doesn't give you a chance to clear up the mystery until the last page. Congratulations. It's worth being a film. - Not like reading a book, but like watching a film. It really deserves to be a film. You'll enjoy it very much. - It deserves to be read, with its never-ending excitement, action, battles, intelligent and ingenious fiction. It's well worth your time. - The language is fluent and simple, the subject matter is interesting, the action is plentiful, and the suspense and curiosity remain until the very end. If you are looking for a novel without dragons, flying horses and elves, you should definitely read it. - I'm not used to coming across really clever, subtle fiction in fantasy. To do that in the real world without losing the fantastical atmosphere, especially with ordinary people, but to give them as much fantastical meaning as fictional characters, is a unique skill that only first class fantasy writers have achieved.

Download or read book Enuma Elish the Seven Tablets of Creation written by Leonard W. King and published by Book Tree. This book was released on 1999-07 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Babylonian and Assyrian Legends Concerning the Creation of the World and of Mankind. The Enuma Elish is one of the oldest stories known to mankind. It is a story first written down by the ancient Sumerians thousands of years ago. As a one time assistant in the Department of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities at the British Museum, L.W. King provides us with a qualified translation of the tablets which were originally written in cuneiform script. The Enuma Elish is receiving renewed interest from modern researchers delving into the origins of mankind, the earth, and the solar system. Over the centuries a copy ended up in the library at Nineveh in the 7th century B.C., and was uncovered by archaeologists in the late 1800s. Written in cuneiform text and preserved on seven clay tablets, the entire story was called "The Seven Tablets of Creation". After being translated the story revealed how the planets became aligned, how a cosmic catastrophe affected the earth, how mankind came upon the scene, and how the "gods" played a role in all of it. The Seven Tablets of Creation have had many profound implications since they were first discovered and subsequently published. They predate many parts of the Book of Genesis as well as other worldwide creation myths. Volume One includes this epic poem's English translation. It also includes information on parallels in Hebrew literature, the date and origin of the Babylonian creation legends, and more. Volume Two includes other accounts of creation, an Assyrian "Tower of Dabel" story, and supplementary texts showing the actual cuneiform tablets.

Book excerpt: Between North America and Japan where the North Pacific Ocean meets the Pacific Ocean lays a continent known as The Eighth Continent. Since the beginning of time, this continent was plagued with much chaos and war. The Eighth Continent harbored an extremely powerful demon who eventually conquered and ruled it in its entirety. This demon however looked to the world's example and divided the continent into four sections before his death. He appointed four beings as rulers of the continent, one for each half. One who rules the west, which is composed mainly of demigods, holy, and spiritual beings. The south, which is heavily inhabited by mysterious creatures and monsters. The east, which is ruled by the great demon's son, is infested with every manner of demon and the north, which is where our hero's journey begins, is home to all sorts of magical beings and magic users. In a section of the north is a kingdom known as Valestone, home to an honorable king who soon hopes to make history. Anthropomorphs are humanoid animals, but the human society is nervous and fearful of the idea of fusing our own culture with their own. So the king has begun talking with the leader of the anthropomorphs to help mankind step forward alongside with the humanoid animals. Everything had been working out perfectly until
Download or read book The Jewel of Seven Stars written by Bram Stoker and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jewel of Seven Stars (1903) is a novel by Irish author Bram Stoker. Written during a period of increased interest in Egyptology across Europe, The Jewel of Seven Stars helped to establish the Irish master of Gothic horror’s reputation as a leading writer of the early-twentieth century. In the middle of the night, a young lawyer is roused from sleep by Margaret Trelawny. At her urgent request, he accompanies her to the house of her father, Abel Trelawny, a world-renowned Egyptologist. There, Ross discovers the archaeologist unconscious and in a trance-like state on the floor of his bedroom, surrounded by strange and horrifying artifacts. After reading a note left by Trelawny instructing them not to wake him, the group takes turns watching over the injured man. Several nights later, a man arrives who reveals himself to be Eugene Corbeck, a colleague of Trelawny’s who has only recently returned from Egypt. He shares with them the story of their discovery years before of Queen Tera’s tomb. By taking the sarcophagus, the pair unlocked an ancient curse, and have since been struggling to fulfill the prophesy recorded on the wall of the tomb—the resurrection of the Queen. The Jewel of Seven Stars demonstrates not only Stoker’s detailed research of contemporary Egyptology, but an undeniable mastery of horror. Blending nineteenth-century Gothic themes with twentieth-century concerns regarding the legacy of British imperialism, Stoker’s novel is an artifact itself, and a highly entertaining one at that. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Bram Stoker’s The Jewel of Seven Stars is a classic of Irish literature reimagined for modern readers.
Download or read book Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest written by Matthew Restall and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An update of a popular work that takes on the myths of the Spanish Conquest of the Americas, featuring a new afterword. Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest reveals how the Spanish invasions in the Americas have been conceived and presented, misrepresented and misunderstood, in the five centuries since Columbus first crossed the Atlantic. This book is a unique and provocative synthesis of ideas and themes that were for generations debated or perpetuated without question in academic and popular circles. The 2003 edition became the foundation stone of a scholarly turn since called The New Conquest History. Each of the book's seven chapters describes one "myth," or one aspect of the Conquest that has been distorted or misrepresented, examines its roots, and explodes its fallacies and misconceptions. Using a wide array of primary and secondary sources, written in a scholarly but readable style, Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest explains why Columbus did not set out to prove the world was round, the conquistadors were not soldiers, the native Americans did not take them for gods, Cortés did not have a unique vision of conquest procedure, and handfuls of vastly outnumbered Spaniards did not bring down great empires with stunning rapidity. Conquest realities were more complex--and far more fascinating--than conventional histories have related, and they featured a more diverse cast of protagonists-Spanish, Native American, and African. This updated edition of a key event in the history of the Americas critically examines the book's arguments, how they have held up, and why they prompted the rise of a New Conquest History.
