Book excerpt: Tarker is a formidable power master. His constant companion is a krawk called Kok, a cranky black bird with a dubious vocabulary. They are called upon to assist peasants and rulers in times of danger and distress. They find themselves battling demonic creatures and other power users (magos and Zongs), who hire out to anyone willing to pay their price. Tarker, his sons, and Offa, a desert-living hermit, aid Al Dron to suppress an invasion by the tects into the Dorongo domain. Al Drons son is kidnapped as part of a conspiracy to overthrow Dorongos ruling family. Trained krawks help to save the boy before Tarker and Kok again join forces with Lord Dron and his knights to face an invading army raised by greedy men who want to enslave the population and bend them to their will. Power mistresses who are great healers and carers of sick animals and the environment are called upon to purify the domain of Findelling, when all the land and water were deliberately poisoned and the population faced starvation. Meanwhile, all the power masters find themselves battling against their deadliest foe yet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A global approach to better understanding piracy through archaeology Featuring discussions of newly discovered evidence from South America, England, New England, Haiti, the Virgin Islands, the Caribbean Sea, and the Indian Ocean, Dead Man’s Chest presents diverse approaches to better understanding piracy through archaeological investigations, landscape studies, material culture analyses, and documentary and cartographic evidence. The case studies in this volume include medieval and postmedieval piracy in the Bristol Channel, illicit trade in seventeenth-century fishing stations in Maine, and the guerrilla tactics of nineteenth-century privateers and coastal bandits off the Gulf of Mexico Coast. Contributors reveal the story of a Dutch privateer who saved a ship from a storm only to take control of it, partnerships between pirates and Indigenous inhabitants along the Miskito coast, and new findings on the Speaker—one of the first pirate ships to be archaeologically investigated—in Madagascar. As well as covering shipwrecks and other topics traditionally associated with piracy, several chapters look at pirate facilities on land and cultural interactions with nearby communities as reflected through archival documentation. As a whole, the volume highlights various ways to identify piracy and smuggling in the archaeological record, while encouraging readers to question what they think they know about pirates.

Download or read book Music and Mystique in Muscle Shoals written by Christopher M. Reali and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A No Depression Most Memorable Music Book of 2022 The forceful music that rolled out of Muscle Shoals in the 1960s and 1970s shaped hits by everyone from Wilson Pickett and Aretha Franklin to the Rolling Stones and Paul Simon. Christopher M. Reali's in-depth look at the fabled musical hotbed examines the events and factors that gave the Muscle Shoals sound such a potent cultural power. Many artists trekked to FAME Studios and Muscle Shoals Sound in search of the sound of authentic southern Black music—and at times expressed shock at the mostly white studio musicians waiting to play it for them. Others hoped to draw on the hitmaking production process that defined the scene. Reali also chronicles the overlooked history of Muscle Shoals's impact on country music and describes the region's recent transformation into a tourism destination. Multifaceted and informed, Music and Mystique in Muscle Shoals reveals the people, place, and events behind one of the most legendary recording scenes in American history.
