Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “We have watched your plants for millennia.” The creature that spoke was barely three feet tall, with wrinkled gray skin and monstrous eyes . . . “Yours is a war of children. Only children would slaughter each other out of ignorance and fear. Only children would fail again and again to learn the lessons of their foolishness.” It was true. The underground people of Earth were united in terror and desperation against what they considered a frightful threat from the skies. They had sent a mighty armada into space, rushing in lethal orbit toward Mars. The Spacers - still really Earthmen themselves - were poised for the counter-blow. The great fleet at Asteroid Central had sufficient warheads to reduce earth to a cinder. “But we also know the greatness of your spirit, the precious spark which we cannont allow you to extinguish.” Now Ben Trefon understood that in the Black Belt of Power bequeathed to him by his father rested the final hope of the human race!

Download or read book W G Sebald written by Scott Denham and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-22 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novelist, poet, and essayist W. G. Sebald (1944 – 2001) was perhaps the most original German writer of the last decade of the 20th century (“Die Ausgewanderten”, “Austerlitz”, “Luftkrieg und Literatur”). His writing is marked by a unique ‘hybridity’ that combines characteristics of travelogue, cultural criticism, crime story, historical essay, and dream diary, among other genres. He employs layers of literary and motion picture allusions that contribute to a sometimes enigmatic, sometimes intimately familiar mood; his dominant mode is melancholy. The contributions of this anthology examine W. G. Sebald as narrator and pensive observer of history. The book includes a previously unpublished interview with Sebald from 1998.

Download or read book True Raiders written by Brad Ricca and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True Raiders is The Lost City of Z meets The Da Vinci Code, from critically acclaimed author Brad Ricca. This book tells the untold true story of Monty Parker, a British rogue nobleman who, after being dared to do so by Ava Astor, the so-called “most beautiful woman in the world,” headed a secret 1909 expedition to find the fabled Ark of the Covenant. Like a real-life version of Raiders of the Lost Ark, this incredible story of adventure and mystery has almost been completely forgotten today. In 1908, Monty is approached by a strange Finnish scholar named Valter Juvelius who claims to have discovered a secret code in the Bible that reveals the location of the Ark. Monty assembles a ragtag group of blueblood adventurers, a renowned psychic, and a Franciscan father, to engage in a secret excavation just outside the city walls of Jerusalem. Using recently uncovered records from the original expedition and several newly translated sources, True Raiders is the first retelling of this group’s adventures– in the space between fact and faith, science and romance.

McMurphy has a dark past, however, that plagues him. Twenty years before, he abandoned his wife and sons without a word. He must return to grown sons who have no idea that he still lives and confront the woman he left behind.
