Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Hive and the Flame Alien Invaders meet the Thin Red Line of the British Army. Using the well tested Sword and the Flame British Colonial game engine and Eight Hundred Fighting Englishmen's mechanics for larger scale battles The Hive and The Flame brings in the alien arthropods from Terry Sofian's Hive, Queen and Country setting. Advanced Victorian technology, backed up by the guts of rough British Tommies face off against giant arthropods armed with claws and mandibles. Even Zulus and Dervish can't match the selfless devotion these creatues show to The Hive. Can the humans and their science and courage match biological killing machines bred to cleanse a planet of all life? Steampower airships and land fighting machines help to even the contest between soft and weak humans, who are badly outnumbered by the rapidly breeding creatures. Larry Brom's original and inventive rules are smoothly integrated with both the alien menace and steampunk technology. Rules and background are included for numerous insectoid invaders and many new weapons and technologies for the Imperial defenders. Ownership of The Sword and The Flame and/or Eight Hundred Fighting Englishmen is required to use this product.

Download or read book Moths to the Flame written by Gregory J. E. Rawlins and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For two decades now I've been awaiting a book explaining computers and their social consequences to literate readers without using any unnecessary jargon or pedantry--or math. I wanted such a book to lend to all those friends who've pestered me about computers and to all the computer science students who've asked me about computers over the years. I particularly wanted a book that I could buy for my father, who's an accountant of the old school, to explain something of the mysterious world I live in." Gregory Rawlins, who teaches artificial intelligence at Indiana University, got tired of waiting for that book and decided to write it himself. In Moths to the Flame he takes us on a humorous yet thought-provoking tour of the world wrought by modern technology, a technology, he points out, that is rooted deep inside the military: a technology that when applied to everyday life, may have startling results. Unlike space technology, today's technological race won't simply bring us Tang-flavored Velcro. Rawlins educates by entertaining. His stories and anecdotes enliven and surprise us while increasing our awareness of technology itself as a player in the political and commercial climate of our times. In our headlong rush toward networked humanity Rawlins raises serious concerns about our future jobs and our future wars: we can figure out what kind of job to get today if we know where technology is taking us tomorrow. The book's first four chapters explore the worlds of privacy, virtual reality, publishing, and computer networks, while the last four focus on social issues such as warfare, jobs, computer catastrophes, and the future itself. Throughout unusual, eye-opening analogies and historical comparisons--from Egyptian hieroglyphics to the sewing machine to the codebreakers of World War II--give us a context for the computer age, showing how new technologies have always bred intertwined hope and resistance. Provocative yet balanced and sophisticated, Moths to the Flame is an indispensable guidebook to the future: a Baedeker for the Brave New World. A Bradford Book

Book excerpt: Beatrice Shore is many things. Bitter. Cynical. A mother and grandmother. But most importantly, an investigative journalist. So when her editor sends her to Mellifera, a country town hidden in the mountains, to write a fluff piece on the local farmers market, she is none too happy about it. However, she soon finds that things are not quite right in Mellifera. From overly animated locals, to bees erupting from livestock, to the near worship the townsfolk seem to have for the enigmatic apiarists. All of which causes Beatrice’s journalistic alarm bells to ring as she begins to suspect she might have finally found her next big story. Can she expose the sinister secret that lies within Mellifera's honey-drenched walls? Or will her relentless pursuit plunge her into a nightmare from which she may never awaken? For there is a terrifying truth at the heart of this town, one sickly sweet and as sharp as a bee sting.

Book excerpt: Dune meets The Poppy War in Aparna Verma's The Boy with Fire, a glorious yet brutal tour-de-force debut that grapples with the power and manipulation of myth in an Indian-inspired epic fantasy. Yassen Knight was the Arohassin's most notorious assassin until a horrible accident. Now, he's on the run from the authorities and his former employer. But when Yassen seeks refuge with an old friend, he's offered an irresistible deal: defend the heir of Ravence from the Arohassin, and earn his freedom. Elena Ravence prepares to ascend the throne. Trained since birth in statecraft, warfare, and the desert ways, Elena knows she is ready. She only lacks one thing: the ability to hold Fire. With the coronation only weeks away, she must learn quickly or lose her kingdom. Leo Ravence is not ready to give up the crown. There's still too much work to be done, too many battles to be won. But when an ancient prophecy threatens to undo his lifetime of work, Leo wages war on the heavens themselves to protect his legacy. The first of The Ravence Trilogy, The Boy with Fire is the tale of a world teetering on the edge of war and prophecy, of fate and betrayal, of man's irrevocable greed for power - and the sacrifices that must come with it.

Download or read book The Lost Continent written by C. J. Cutcliffe Hyne and published by Standard Ebooks. This book was released on 2017-02-06T23:35:56Z with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lost Continent, initially published as a serial in 1899, remains one of the enduring classics of the “lost race” genre. In it we follow Deucalion, a warrior-priest on the lost continent of Atlantis, as he tries to battle the influence of an egotistical upstart empress. Featuring magic, intrigue, mythical monsters, and fearsome combat on both land and sea, the story is nothing if not a swashbuckling adventure. The Lost Continent was very influential on pulp fiction of the subsequent decades, and echoes of its style can be found in the work of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Robert E. Howard, and others. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
