Download or read book Daisy Not Your Average Super sleuth The First Bundle written by R T Green and published by Wise Owl. This book was released on 2023-11-11 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It all begins with a rose bush, mysteriously uprooted in the middle of the night, revealing a horrific secret... If you’ve not met our R.E.D. (Retired Extremely Daisy) heroine yet, the first bundle is a great way to get to know her, and the hit series! Three full books for less than the price of two! Daisy moved to a village a few miles from Kings Lynn in Norfolk a year ago, after a very unfortunate incident in London made her decide village life was the best option. She’s adapted to country life quite well, although she rather irreverently refers to the village of Great Wiltingham as the ‘place people go to wilt’. She does have a wicked side, after all! “One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!” “A real breath of fresh literary air!” In the first book, after some strange goings-on and a murder in the village, Daisy and Aidan, together with a young police-woman called Sarah, whose curiosity gets the better of her, set about solving the mystery. It all begins with a rose bush, mysteriously uprooted in the middle of the night, revealing a horrific secret... In the second book, village life has reverted to as normal as it ever gets where Daisy is concerned. Then one morning everything changes, in a very tragic way. To begin with, Daisy believes someone from her past is responsible. Before she retired, she had a job very few people have, after all. Then a clue from a really unexpected source makes her wonder if it might be someone much closer to home. So once again she becomes the worm on the hook, much to Aidan and Sarah’s horror. For Daisy there’s no choice, because this time it’s just about as personal as it gets… In the third book, following a surprise lead their daughter might have been sold by traffickers to someone in Africa three years ago, Daisy, Aidan and Sarah head for Uganda. But they’ve only been in the country a few minutes when a mysterious dying man thrusts a note into Daisy’s hand. As he gasps his last breath, he begs her not to involve the police. She suddenly realises there isn’t just one, but two mysteries to be solved! The extra mystery deepens as three different people confess to a murder that took place many years ago. But there’s a silver lining to solving a case the local police closed in the nineteen-sixties, because it unearths an overgrown path that just might lead them to Celia. A path that could very well end in an international incident! Read all about Daisy, Sandie, and everything else we do, on the new rtgreen website. Enjoy!

Download or read book The Foundation Novels 7 Book Bundle written by Isaac Asimov and published by Spectra. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 2997 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of our future begins with the Foundation. Named the best series of all time by the Hugo Awards, the Foundation novels of Isaac Asimov unquestionably comprise one of the great masterworks of science fiction, unsurpassed for its unique blend of nonstop action, daring ideas, and extensive world-building. Now, all seven volumes are together for the first time in this essential eBook bundle: FOUNDATION FOUNDATION AND EMPIRE SECOND FOUNDATION FOUNDATION’S EDGE FOUNDATION AND EARTH PRELUDE TO FOUNDATION FORWARD THE FOUNDATION For twelve thousand years the Galactic Empire has ruled supreme. Now it is dying. Only Hari Seldon, creator of the revolutionary science of psychohistory, can see into the future—a dark age of ignorance, barbarism, and warfare that will last thirty thousand years. To preserve knowledge and save humanity, Seldon gathers the best minds in the Empire—both scientists and scholars—and brings them to a bleak planet at the edge of the galaxy to serve as a beacon of hope for future generations. He calls this sanctuary the Foundation. But soon the fledgling Foundation finds itself at the mercy of corrupt warlords rising in the wake of the receding Empire. And mankind’s last best hope is faced with an agonizing choice: submit to the barbarians and live as slaves—or take a stand for freedom and risk total destruction. Praise for Isaac Asimov and his Foundation series “A true polymath, a superb rationalist, an exciting and accessible writer in both fiction and nonfiction, Isaac Asimov was simply a master of all he surveyed.”—Greg Bear “Asimov served wondrous meals-of-the-mind to a civilization that was starved for clear thinking about the future. To this day, his visions spice our ongoing dinner-table conversation about human destiny.”—David Brin “Isaac was still in his teens when I met him, a fan of mine before I was a fan of his. Writing for John W. Campbell back in the famous ‘golden age of science fiction,’ he became one of the founders of our field. With the Robot stories and the Foundation stories, he helped to shape science fiction as we know it.”—Jack Williamson “I grew up on the ABC’s of science fiction—Asimov, Bradbury, Clarke. There’s a reason Asimov’s name comes first, and not just because of the alphabet!”—Janis Ian “With his fertile imagination, his wit, and his prolific output, Isaac Asimov truly laid the foundation for all future generations of science fiction writers.”—Kevin J. Anderson “If anything can be said to have been the launch pad for space-age science fiction, it has to be the Foundation trilogy. It’s a classic. And it’s unforgettable.”—Jack McDevitt “The Foundation series is one of the masterpieces of science fiction. If you’ve never read these novels, then you’re in for a treat, and even if you’ve already read them, then you owe it to yourself to reread them, because they’re still great.”—Allen Steele “Quite simply, Asimov got me started.”—Liz Williams
