Book excerpt: During the revolutionary turbulence of 17th century France robbers brutally clubbed and stripped a young sailor, then left him unconscious to die in the cold fields of a beleaguered farming community. At the precipice of nonexistence, a nearly invisible mysterious being intervened by sending what appeared to be little flying sparks to his aid. These agents halted his external and internal bleeding and help him to begin healing. Thus begins the first contact between alien antd human. Vincent lives, but not until he finds himself abandoned on an uncharted island does he learn who saved him, and why. The alien seeks a sacred covenant wit him and his people. A seemingly all-powerful being offers a thousand additional years of life—for a price.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book one, The Swordfish Island Covenant, mentioned three kinds of spheres: many crystalfs, few sun jewels, and one ovivium. Found in beach sand, white crystalfs were first thought to be magic turtle eggs. They provide daily reminder that Swordfish Island was not simply a tropical paradise. Just picking one up caused a little burst of joy that relieved mental stress. In lovemaking a crystal shared, provided an emotional bridge between mates bringing them to simultaneous rapture. A colored crystal joined with a sun jewel began a process of rejuvenation that reset the person’s biological clock to age twenty. Due to the limited numbers of sun jewels there was a conflict over who would rejuvenate. The islanders had many questions: Why weren’t there more sun jewels? What was the purpose of the ovivium? What did these benefits cost?
Download or read book The Promise of Melusine written by Stephen C. Graves and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-06-10 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our galactic neighborhood, surveyors for the Federation of Intelligent Species determined that humans are a dangerous outlier race whose violent nature and rapidly developing technology will be destabilizing to their vast ancient culture. Following an established species extinction plan, FIS agents installed mass drivers to guide large asteroid missiles toward Earth. In The Swordfish Island Covenant French Huguenots who experienced persecution under Louis XIV agreed to burden their descendants with defending Earth over three hundred years in the future. The Promise of Melusine is the fulfillment of that agreement. Hidden from the FIS, from other humans, and ignorant of what is happening in them, the people of Swordfish Island gradually transform. A teenage girl is the key to their activation. Lida lives in a Los Angeles suburb. She must discover her heritage and survive to find her people. Still, even if she succeeds can a hundred thousand amplified human beings have any significant impact against a culture of ten million worlds and four million space faring alien species?

Download or read book Malay Kingship in Kedah written by Maziar Mozaffari Falarti and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book probes and examines traditional sources of royal power and control, as well as indigenous socio-political systems in the Malay world. It is focused on the north-western Malaysian Sultanate of Kedah which is acknowledged as the oldest unbroken independent kingship line in the 'Malay and Islamic world' with 1,000 years of history. Little scholarly attention has been paid to its pre-modern history, society, religion, system of government and unique geographic situation, potentially controlling both land and sea lines of communication into the remainder of Southeast Asia. It will thus provide the first comprehensive treatment in English, or other languages, on Kedah's pre-modern and nineteenth century historiography and can provide a foundation for comparative studies of the various Malay states which is presently lacking. The proposed book also sheds much needed light on a range of important topics in Malay history including: Kedah and the northern Melaka Straits history, colonial expansion and rivalry, Southeast Asian history and politics, interregional migration and the influence of the sea peoples or orang laut, traditional Malay socio-political and economic life, Islamic influences and the course of Thai-Malay relations. The book attempts to offer a new understanding, not only of Kedah, but of the political and cultural development of the entire Malay world and of its relationships with the broader forces in both its continental and maritime settings. It argues that Kedah does not seem to follow, and in fact, often seems to contradict what has been commonly been accepted as the "typical model" of the traditional Malay state. Thus it concludes that the ruling dynasty has historically exploited a wide range of unique environmental conditions, local traditions, global spiritual trends and economic forces to preserve and strengthen its political position.

Book excerpt: Damaris Kelly is a beautiful eighteen-year-old girl from the small Midwest town of Linn, Missouri, located between the two great cities of Kansas City and St. Louis. After the tragic events that happened to her parents three years previously, she wins the $960 million lottery jackpot. Poverty no longer an issue, she goes on a frenetic spending spree, fulfilling her once-thwarted longing for spending money. She gives generously to the city of Linn as well as her talented musician brother, Bryan. To escape the excessive media attention, she books a four-month around-the-world voyage on the Queen Mary 2 ocean liner, where she meets a mysterious older gentleman and his friend who become her traveling companions. They show her not only the world as it is during the twenty-two port stops but the beautiful reality of the unseen world. Along the way, she encounters danger in the Great Barrier Reef off the coast of Australia and learns of the evil, crime, hopelessness, and poverty abounding in the world's largest and wealthiest cities. She learns the essence of true love and is forced to make extremely painful decisions. One lesson she learns is that, no matter how great the wealth, tragedy is often its silent partner.

Download or read book Historic Cities of the Islamic World written by C. Edmund Bosworth and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-08-31 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains articles on historic cities of the Islamic world, ranging from West Africa to Malaysia, which over the centuries have been centres of culture and learning and of economic and commercial life, and which have contributed much to the consolidation of Islam as a faith and as a social and political institution. The articles have been taken from the second edition of the Encyclopaedia of Islam, completed in 2004, but in many cases expanded and rewritten. All have been updated to include fresh historical information, with note of contemporary social developments and population statistics. The book thus delineates the urban background of Islam has it has evolved up to the present day, highlighting the role of such great cities as Cairo, Istanbul, Baghdad and Delhi in Islamic history, and also brings them together in a rich panorama illustrating one of mankind's greatest achievements, the living organism of the city.
