Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deliverance meets The Treasure of the Sierra Madre with a good buzz on! Green-bud and greenbacks, from San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district to the lush but rugged Northern California back-country, Tales of the Emerald Triangle: Memoirs of a Marijuana Grower flies off the page, spinning a fictionalized account of America’s premier marijuana growing region. The book is an intimate look at the lifestyle of the men and women who labor in the fields of this burgeoning (thought illicit) industry. Fresh-faced, if slightly disenfranchised, Duncan Easley attempts to carve out an existence where pot plants grow as fast as Kansas corn. But the world of fast money, fast women, and burly 4x4s comes with a price; animosity and anxiety grow quickly as well. Success breeds resentment, rip-offs lurk in the shadows, and increasingly corrupt law enforcement officials rush in to grab what they can. A man’s business, his freedom, or his life can disappear as quickly as a puff of smoke. If you ever wondered how world-class marijuana gets to market, and why it costs upwards of $5,000 per pound when it arrives, then read this book.

Lord Colum of Sevenwaters is blessed with six sons: Liam, a natural leader; Diarmid, with his passion for adventure; twins Cormack and Conor, each with a different calling; rebellious Finbar, grown old before his time by his gift of the Sight; and the young, compassionate Padriac. But it is Sorcha, the seventh child and only daughter, who alone is destined to defend her family and protect her land from the Britons and the clan known as Northwoods. For her father has been bewitched, and her brothers bound by a spell that only Sorcha can lift. To reclaim the lives of her brothers, Sorcha leaves the only safe place she has ever known, and embarks on a journey filled with pain, loss, and terror. When she is kidnapped by enemy forces and taken to a foreign land, it seems that there will be no way for her to break the spell that condemns all that she loves. But magic knows no boundaries, and Sorcha will have to choose between the life she has always known and a love that comes only once. Juliet Marillier is a rare talent, a writer who can imbue her characters and her story with such warmth, such heart, that no reader can come away from her work untouched.

Download or read book Emerald Labyrinth written by Eli Greenbaum and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerald Labyrinth is a scientist and adventurer's chronicle of years exploring the rainforests of sub-Saharan Africa. The richly varied habitats of the Democratic Republic of the Congo offer a wealth of animal, plant, chemical, and medical discoveries. But the country also has a deeply troubled colonial past and a complicated political present. Author Eli Greenbaum is a leading expert in sub-Saharan herpetology - snakes, lizards, and frogs - who brings a sense of wonder to the question of how science works in the twenty-first century. Along the way he comes face to face with spitting cobras, silverback mountain gorillas, wild elephants, and the teenaged armies of AK-47-toting fighters engaged in the continent's longest-running war. As a bellwether of the climate and biodiversity crises now facing the planet, the Congo holds the key to our planet's future. Writing in the tradition of books like The Lost City of Z, Greenbaum seeks out the creatures struggling to survive in a war-torn, environmentally threatened country. Emerald Labyrinth is an extraordinary book about the enormous challenges and hard-won satisfactions of doing science in one of the least known, least hospitable places on earth.
