Book excerpt: *NATIONAL BESTSELLER* From New York Times bestselling author Randy Wayne White, after the deadliest hurricane to hit Florida’s Gulf Coast in a century, Doc Ford must stop a gang of thieves—and worse—during the twelve hours of chaos that follow the passing of a storm’s eye. A Russian diplomat disappears while Doc is tagging great white sharks in South Africa, and members of a criminal brotherhood, Bratva, don’t think it’s a coincidence. They track the biologist to Dinkin’s Bay Marina on the west coast of Florida, where Brotherhood mercenaries have already deployed, prepared to pillage and kill in the wake of an approaching hurricane. No one, however, is prepared for a cataclysmic event that will forever change the island and leaves Doc to deal with escapees from Russia’s most dangerous prison, including a serial killer—the Vulture Monk—who has a taste for blood. His only ally is an enigmatic British inventor whose decision to ride out the storm might have more to do with revenge than protecting a priceless art collection. Doc has a lot at stake—the lives of his fiancée, Hannah Smith, and their son, plus the fate of his hipster pal, Tomlinson, whose sailboat has disappeared in the Gulf of Mexico. The greatest threat of all, though, is a force that cannot be escaped—a Category Five hurricane that, minute by minute, melds sins of the past with Florida's precarious future.

Download or read book The Eye Expanded written by Frances B. Titchener and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plato and Aristotle both believed that the arts were mimetic creations of the human mind that had the power to influence society. In this they were representative of a widespread consensus in ancient culture. Cultural and political impulses informed the fine arts, and these in turn shaped—and were often intended to shape—the living world. The contributors to this volume, all of whom have been encouraged and inspired by the work of Peter Green, document the interaction between life and the arts that has made art more lively and life more artful in sixteen essays with subjects ranging from antiquity to modern times. With topics ranging from Antigone to D. H. Lawrence and Norman Douglas, and from Bactrian coins to Livy's characterization of women, the scope, the zest, and the scholarship of these essays will illuminate new avenues in our understanding of the relationship between classics and culture, and in our appreciation of both the artistic products that have come down to us and the varieties of life from which they spring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about my life journey. I came a long way, starting out in the Middle East, and then my journey took me through Europe, before I arrived here to the “promise land.” I have lived under Fascism, Communism, and now Capitalism. I experienced firsthand the three ways of life in the twentieth century. As a young person, I survived the bombings in Hungary during World War II, the long train ride to Germany, and the life in the Camp and begging in the street for food so that we can have another day to live. I lived through the 1956 Hungarian uprising against communism and the dictatorship they stood for, survived the escape after the Russian Army invaded Hungary that crashed the peoples hope for a better future. All this experience made me stronger, more understanding, more tolerant, and a better person in life. I was extremely lucky throughout my life journey. I know God guided me all the way because without His help and His protection I would not be here today. I lived my life based on what I saw and learned from my parents when I was growing up and what I saw and learned from my adopted parents in this country. The values I received from my parents are my inheritance from them.
