Book excerpt: The insider whose warnings about terrorism on U.S. soil went unheeded—and whose book Against All Enemies rocketed to the top of bestseller lists—now presents his first novel: an all-too-believable story of politics, oil, espionage, and the earthshaking consequences that may lie at the end of the road ahead... Brian Douglas, working for British intelligence, is in Bahrain’s five-star Diplomat Hotel when the bomb goes off. He’s as used to carnage as one can be, after his years in Iraq. But much has changed since that war. The sheiks have been driven out of Saudi Arabia—now called Islamyah—and Iraq has become a virtual puppet of Iran, now packing nuclear heat. The coalition forces are long gone from Saddam’s homeland, after pulling out their troops and leaving the mess behind. But the mess isn’t going away, as this latest bombing suggests. And as Douglas and others try to sort out agendas and loyalties, motives and manipulations, the Middle East grows ever hotter—and this time withdrawal may not be an option...

Download or read book Scorpions of Southern Africa written by Jonathan Leeming and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2013-05-06 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scorpions have captured the imagination of humans from early times, arousing a morbid interest that no doubt stems from their venomous tendencies. Misunderstood and persecuted as they often are, it is only relatively recently that we have begun to understand their complex behaviour and biology. This book, written by one who confesses to a passion for scorpions, describes in layman's terms the way scorpions' bodies are constructed, the strategies that enable them to survive harsh conditions, their use of venom and other aspects of their successful existence over millions of years. It will help amateur naturalists as well as professionals in associated fields to identify southern Africa's rich scorpion fauna and, it is hoped, will shed new light on these secretive creatures. The species included here are those most likely to be encountered. Many are readily identifiable with the naked eye and have very wide distributions. As far as possible, the book avoids complicated terminology and includes practical information on where to look for scorpions and how best to handle them.

Book excerpt: Awakened from his life-sentence sleep, Like dismissed from the divine questioning, Out of breath Seth was, and his skin pale, Frightened and thrilled, his face would tell. On the walls, his faded looks started to crawl, Checking everything like he couldn't recall, And rubbed his face with a trembling hand. Down by his beard, he let the sorrows hang. Soon he turned inside towards his heart, The dream he just had found a voice in his mind: "What you have just seen is more than a dream, The line between illusion and reality, it’d seem… Twenty-three years, the same dream every night, What is this mystery, have you ever wondered not? The secrets in my words if you wish to solve, Requires this lucid dream, one final rehearsal…”
