Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sire, a dispatch arrived from Paris. From Duc d'Otrante. Marked 'Extremely Urgent.'" "What is it, Meneval?" Claude-Francois Baron de Meneval took his time to respond. "What is it?" Napoleon repeated impatiently. "Murder, Sire. Lady Margaret, the Empress's lady-in-waiting, was found dead in the antechamber at the Empress's bedroom. Madame Josephine is extremely upset. She believed that Lady Margaret prevented the assassination attempt by the price of her own life..." She could be his wife, but she was not. He could be her husband, but he was not. Something came across the lives of those two people: Kevin Harrison and Lionna Dorset, making it impossible to think about marriage. It was the murder of her uncle, George Dorset the Fifth, a wealthy shipowner. Brian pulled out one of his favorite Cuban cigars, chopped off the end of the cigar with a silver cutter, and used a silver lighter to bring a small blue flame to lit it. "Let us say I came here posthaste to save a certain fair lady from a destiny worse than death." "Meaning?" Looking to the skies, Alice drew from her Turkish cigarette in an ivory holder. "Jail," said Brian laconically, and sent a string of perfect smoke rings to the air, one after another. "Jail?" Her laugh was like a silver bell. "Who would dare to arrest Princess Alice Menshikoff, the grandniece of the czar?" "No one." Brian nodded. "But they would gladly arrest Nancy Walker from Chicago." "Poor girl," murmured Alice. "I already feel sorry for her. What has she done, Brian?" "There were a couple of bank robberies in Chicago three months ago on the tune of two million dollars in gold..."

Download or read book Blood Sweat Chrome written by Kyle Buchanan and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-02-22 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Entertainment Weekly's Best Books of 2022! "New York Times journalist Kyle Buchanan details the bonkers construction of director George Miller's long-awaited and often seemingly-doomed fourth Mad Max movie via testimony from the filmmaker, Charlize Theron, Tom Hardy, and a host of others. The result is an epic and – when it comes to the Theron-Hardy on-set relationship – acrimonious tale no less jaw-dropping than the movie itself." — Entertainment Weekly A full-speed-ahead oral history of the nearly two-decade making of the cultural phenomenon Mad Max: Fury Road—with more than 130 new interviews with key members of the cast and crew, including Charlize Theron, Tom Hardy, and director George Miller, from the pop culture reporter for The New York Times, Kyle Buchanan. It won six Oscars and has been hailed as the greatest action film ever, but it is a miracle Mad Max: Fury Road ever made it to the screen… or that anybody survived the production. The story of this modern classic spanned nearly two decades of wild obstacles as visionary director George Miller tried to mount one of the most difficult shoots in Hollywood history. Production stalled several times, stars Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron clashed repeatedly in the brutal Namib Desert, and Miller’s crew engineered death-defying action scenes that were among the most dangerous ever committed to film. Even accomplished Hollywood figures are flummoxed by the accomplishment: As the director Steven Soderbergh has said, “I don’t understand how they’re not still shooting that film, and I don’t understand how hundreds of people aren’t dead.” Kyle Buchanan takes readers through every step of that moviemaking experience in vivid detail, from Fury Road’s unexpected origins through its outlandish casting process to the big-studio battles that nearly mutilated a masterpiece. But he takes the deepest dive in reporting the astonishing facts behind a shoot so unconventional that the film’s fantasy world began to bleed into the real lives of its cast and crew. As they fought and endured in a wasteland of their own, the only way forward was to have faith in their director’s mad vision. But how could Miller persevere when almost everything seemed to be stacked against him? With hundreds of exclusive interviews and details about the making of Fury Road, readers will be left with one undeniable conclusion: There has never been a movie so drenched in sweat, so forged by fire, and so epic in scope.

Of course, even though the Shapeshifter Program is available to any approved young person, Lady Simone can't allow just anyone to be fearsome beasts like dragons!

So Travis chooses a wyvern, which is technically a dragon but small enough for Lady Simone to bend the rules for - especially as the old soothsayer on the hill predicts a spot of unavoidable trouble ahead.

Travis is about to find out when he transforms for the first time and jumps into action to save a unicorn...
