On board are the Princess of Syltasia, a far-away planet, her guardian Colin, a petulant ti-cat called Bast, and K.E.L.I., the "kinetic electronic logical interface" who helps fly the ship. Soon, Leia is off to Mars on an adventure that will change her life-and teach her a thing or two about bravery, Earth folk-wisdom, and the intriguing secrets hidden in her very own family!

Download or read book Yellow Earth written by John Sayles and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Yellow Earth, John Sayles introduces an epic cast of characters, weaving together narratives of competing agendas and worldviews with lyrical dexterity, insight, and wit. When rich layers of shale oil are discovered beneath the town of Yellow Earth, all hell breaks loose. Locals, oil workers, service workers, politicians, law enforcement, and get-rich-quick opportunists—along with an earnest wildlife biologist—commingle and collide as the population of the town triples overnight. Harleigh Killdeer, chairman of the tribal business council of the neighboring Three Nations reservation, entertains visions of "sovereignty by the barrel" and joins forces with a fast-talking entrepreneur. From casino dealers to activists and high school kids, everyone in the region is swept up in the unsparing wave of an oil boom. Sayles’s masterful storytelling draws an arc from the earliest exploitation of this land and its people all the way to twenty-first-century privatization schemes. Through the intertwining lives of its characters, Yellow Earth lays bare how the profit motive erodes human relationships, as well as our living planet. The fate of Yellow Earth serves as a parable for our times.

Download or read book Those Terrible First Hours written by Robert Carr and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-05-19 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone knows the characters of the cartoons Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? and Johnny Quest. In both of these cartoons, the characters did that which was right, without expecting anything in return-a far cry from what we have today. Even though we have many working for the common people of the nation, we have far too many who work for themselves. Even though I have the hope in Christ Jesus, I think that the media has done a good job showing that Donald Trump has an ego the size of Texas. But I feel that they do not know what to do with Hillary Rodham Clinton and therefore do not know how to criticize her. Furthermore, I don't think that it matters who gets in because I think they will be like the second Herbert Hoover.
