Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parker is a wolf, a human-wolf hybrid to be precise. She is a young female alpha of the great Onyx pack, a pack that currently rules over all of the other surrounding packs. Parker is just fine living out her days normally with her two best human friends Harley and Ariel. They had become her pack. They were all she really wanted as a pack until her father goes behind her back and invites some new wolves into their school When Gage, Rowan, Brock, Dillon, and London walk into her life, she had no idea how fast things would change. Secrets and hidden pasts come out. Much needed goodbyes are said. She falls for the unexpected and just as they are about to announce their relationship and take it to the next level things quickly go downhill. Lies take hold as one young alpha male decides to take things into his own hands when he doesn't get his way. Everything quickly spins even farther out of control. Parker's true love and mate are suddenly miles away, taken to the Island, lost forever unless she can break free and rescue him. It takes her on a long journey, one where she meets some unexpected friends and Hunters who turn out to be completely different than what she had been taught as a young pup. With help from friends and family she will fight hard to break into the Island to free her love, but it's only the beginning of her fight to stay alive. When tragedy strikes, will Parker even want to continue on? Will someone pick her back up, or will she give up completely? Only she can decide. Excerpt: "That's usually the way love goes, Parker. One day you hate them and the next you can't figure out a single reason why you stayed away for so long in the first place." - Derek

Download or read book Adventures in Bookbinding written by Jeannine Stein and published by Quarry Books. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each project in this book combines bookbinding with a specific craft such as quilting, jewelry making, or polymer clay, and offer levels of expertise: basic, novice, and expert. Illustrated step-by-step instructions and photographs demonstrate how to construct the cover pages, and a unique binding technique, easy enough for a beginner to master. Each project also features two other versions with the same binding geared to those with more or less experience. The novice version is for those who have no knowledge of the craft and want shortcuts, but love the look. For the quilter's book, for example, vintage quilt pieces become the covers so all that's needing in the binding. Or if you're interested in wool felting use an old sweater. This offers great opportunities for upcycling. The expert version is for those who have a great deal of knowledge and proficiency of a certain craft - the master art quilter, for example. For this version, an expert guest artist has created the cover and the author has created the binding. This offers yet another creative opportunity - the collaborative project. Since crafters often get involved with round-robins and other shared endeavors, this will show them yet another way to combine their skills. No other craft book offers the possibilities and challenges that Adventures in Bookbinding does. Readers will return to it again and again to find inspiration and ideas.

Book excerpt: An “ingenious, horrifying” (The Guardian) first contact story by one of the twentieth century’s most brilliant—and neglected—science fiction and horror writers, whom Stephen King called “the best writer of science fiction that England has ever produced.” “Few books capture the obscure, elliptical way that threats move from the background to the foreground of reality like The Kraken Wakes. . . . Feels all too familiar in today’s age of anti-vaxxer disinformation and QAnon conspiracists.” —Alexandra Kleeman, from the Introduction What if aliens invaded and colonized Earth’s oceans rather than its land? Britain, 1953: It begins with red dots appearing across the sky and crashing to the oceans’ deeps. At first, many people believe that these aliens are interested in only what’s down below. But when the polar ice-caps begin to melt, it becomes clear that these beings are not interested in sharing the Earth and that humankind might just be on the brink of extinction. . . .

Book excerpt: Lovers of the printed book, arise! Thirty of today’s top writers are here to tell you you’re not alone. In Bound to Last,an amazing array of authors comes to the passionate defense of the printed book with spirited, never-before-published essays celebrating the hardcover or paperback they hold most dear—not necessarily because of its contents, but because of its significance as a one-of-a-kind, irreplaceable object. Whether focusing on the circumstances behind how a particular book was acquired, or how it has become forever “bound up” with a specific person, time, or place, each piece collected here confirms—poignantly, delightfully, irrefutably—that every book tells a story far beyond the one found within its pages. In addition to a foreword by Ray Bradbury, Bound to Last features original contributions by:Chris Abani, Rabih Alameddine, Anthony Doerr, Louis Ferrante, Nick Flynn, Karen Joy Fowler, Julia Glass, Karen Green, David Hajdu, Terrence Holt, Jim Knipfel, Shahriar Mandanipour, Sarah Manguso, Sean Manning, Joyce Maynard, Philipp Meyer, Jonathan Miles, Sigrid Nunez, Ed Park, Victoria Patterson, Francine Prose, Michael Ruhlman, Elissa Schappell, Christine Schutt, Jim Shepard, Susan Straight, J.

Download or read book Book Makers written by Iain Stevenson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the only general survey of British publishing as a history over the twentieth century. It aims to look at how publishing companies and their owners and staffs were organised and how their output responded to the wider social, economic and cultural trends of the period. It concentrates on the key figures like William Heinemann, Allen Lane, Paul Hamlyn and Robert Maxwell but also looks at less well known but often very significant figures whose contributions were also vital. The study reveals a fascinating and dynamic industry that was influential not only for literary history, but also for the history of education, and general cultural history at home and abroad. Its spread is broad and it considers not only fiction and trade publishing but also scholarly, academic, scientific, children's, technical, medical and professional publishing. It reveals a fascinating tale of creative genius, individual endeavour, personal idiosyncrasy, occasional duplicity and bad behaviour and far-sighted vision that over the century made British book publishing the best in the world and still underlies its role today"--BLACKWELL'S.
