Book excerpt: With action moving from the fast-track of Silicon Valley to a Moroccan prison cell, from secret war games in the California desert to sexual espionage in the nation's capital, this story tells of a young man brought up in the weapons business — and disgusted with it — who is suddenly forced to adjust to a world he never made. Jason Streck, once a hostage of another kind, inherits his father's defense-procurement empire and is swiftly drawn onto turf staked out for profit by international merchants whose currency is finding new ways to kill — and Streck's company has one. Many lives beyond Jason's are reshaped or wiped out, blessed or cursed by the new machine and the battle for its control. The youthful CEO must learn to deal with the high-level boardroom and bedroom protocols of the elite Pentagon "E-Circle" group and of certain men and women seeking to penetrate it. The rules of The Titan Game are as deadly as gas and as devious as fog; among them: torturers can become esteemed customers; bystanders are seldom innocent; a man's worst enemy is often himself; and your best work can betray you.

Book excerpt: The dragons that have been kept in sanctuaries want their freedom—and their revenge—and the world’s only hope is the reformation of the ancient order of Dragonwatch in this New York Times bestselling first novel of a new sequel series to Fablehaven from author Brandon Mull. In the hidden dragon sanctuary of Wyrmroost, Celebrant the Just, King of the Dragons, plots his revenge. He has long seen the sanctuaries as prisons, and he wants nothing more than to overthrow his captors and return the world to the Age of Dragons, when he and his kind ruled and reigned without borders. The time has come to break free and reclaim his power. No one person is capable of stopping Celebrant and his dragon horde. It will take the ancient order of Dragonwatch to gather again if there is any chance of saving the world from destruction. In ancient times, Dragonwatch was a group of wizards, enchantresses, dragon slayers, and others who originally confined the majority of dragons into sanctuaries. But nearly all of the original Dragonwatch members are gone, and so the wizard Agad reaches out to Grandpa Sorenson for help. As Kendra and Seth confront this new danger, they must draw upon all their skills, talents, and knowledge as only they have the ability to function together as a powerful dragon tamer. Together they must battle against forces with superior supernatural powers and breathtaking magical abilities. How will the epic dragon showdown end? Will dragons overthrow humans and change the world as we know it?

Download or read book The Team the Titans Remember written by Mark A. O'Connell and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000, Walt Disney Pictures released the film Remember the Titans which stirred the hearts of many but falsely depicted the Titans of T.C. Williams playing their arch-rival, George C. Marshall, in a nail-biter of a championship football game decided on the last play in a place called Roanoke Stadium. Wrong! The Titans played a small and scrappy bunch of players from Salem known as the Wolverines of Andrew Lewis High in the historic Victory Stadium of Roanoke. Salem native Mark A. O’Connell sets the record straight for all time in this book which tells the true story of the championship game and also links the 1971 Andrew Lewis High “Wolverines” to a lasting-legacy which had begun in 1962 under legendary head Coach Eddie Joyce. Now you can read the true—and unaltered—story. *** Now this from Coach Foster: Andrew Lewis, a small southwest Virginia school located in Salem and nicknamed the Wolverines, played—and won—against some of the largest schools in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina and Tennessee. Today, these schools would be classified in Virginia as 6A, the largest of all six classifications. During the 1971 season, Andrew Lewis played 7 schools that had student enrollments over 2,000 while Lewis’s enrollment was only 975 students. Lewis was 12-1 that year, its only loss to T.C. Williams (Remember the Titans Game) which had an enrollment of 5,000 students. Between 1962 and 1971, Andrew Lewis won 2 state championships (‘62,’64) and was runner-up 3 times (‘66,’67 and ‘71) as a member of the largest classification in Virginia. Over that span of time—considered as “the best years of Coach Joyce”—the Wolverines compiled a record of 88 wins, 15 losses and 2 ties—Dale Foster.

Book excerpt: Before Namath, before the Heidi Game, before the guaranteed Super Bowl victory, there were the New York Titans. Remember the Titans? They played to meager crowds and mediocre results in the decrepit Polo Grounds. The organization, a charter member of the American Football League in 1960, was in constant danger of bankruptcy. After struggling for three seasons, the Titans would finally be assumed by the league. New owners were found, the franchise was renamed the Jets and a new stadium would welcome the team in 1964. The revised edition of this award-winning book covers the turbulent history and eventual crash landing of the team that would become the New York Jets. The early days of the upstart AFL are also explored, as are the league's constant feuds with the Titans' underfunded and overbearing owner, Harry Wismer. Four appendices with team results, rosters and statistics are included.

Book excerpt: "The Titan's Ploy" The city is in the middle of a planned battle between a chess-playing bad guy and a smart person with a big body and a good heart. Summary: In the busy city of Grandview, an amazing story is told that keeps the people there spellbound. The story starts with Thomas, who is both very big and very smart. He is a giant of love and intelligence. When Thomas comes to Grandview for the first time, everyone is shocked. His kindness and desire to help others make him very popular among the people in Grandview very quickly. Viktor, a chess whiz whose bad ideas for the city overshadow his brilliance, becomes interested in him. Viktor invites Thomas to a strategic duel that looks like it will be more than just a chess match because he thinks Thomas is getting stronger. It turns into a battle for Grandview's very soul. Before the task, Thomas doesn't know anything about chess. He sets out to learn about the game, the people of Grandview, and how strong the community is. There, he meets Lily, a young chess fan who helps him because she knows a lot about the game and is really into it. Together, they expertly handle the tricky parts of the contest. Viktor is surprised by Thomas's smart and naturally kind strategies, which mesmerize the city's residents. Along with being just a game, Thomas and Viktor's fight turns into an interesting story that affects everyone in Grandview. It shows how important it is to be kind, work together, and have the guts to stand up for what's right. Through their journey, Thomas and Viktor show that real power comes from intelligence, kindness, and friendships, not from fear or control. Even though Thomas wins in the end, the game has significant effects beyond the chessboard and marks the start of a new age of hope and teamwork in Grandview. Everyone in the city, not just Thomas, is happy about the win because it shows group spirit and hope for the future. This touching story about intelligence, bravery, and community is a lovely lesson that kindness and good sense can bring people together and make a difference in the long run, even when things are hard. Chapter 1: The Coming In Grandview, on a sunny morning, something wonderful took place that would change the lives of everyone who lives there forever. Thomas, a giant with a heart as big as he was, had a project to do in the city. People stopped and watched him walk through the streets, being careful to miss cars and lampposts with his big feet. They had never seen someone so big before. He was big, but that wasn't what caught their attention. It was the nice, warm smile that went across his face and up to his sparkling eyes, which were a sign of kindness. Thomas didn't want to scare anyone, even though he looked scary. He got down on his knees and introduced himself to the shocked people watching. His voice was soft like a lullaby but loud like thunder. He said, "Hello, my name is Thomas." The locals felt better when he said, "I've come to Grandview not to cause trouble, but to learn from you and maybe help in any way I can." His sincerity and soft voice made them feel better. Kids who were scared at first started to talk to him because they were too interested to stay away. Thomas gave funny and thought-provoking answers to their questions about where he came from and why he was so tall. When Thomas got to Grandview, people from all over the city rushed to meet the giant, who promised to be friendly and help them. It turned into quite a show. After word got out, Thomas was no longer an unknown but a person who people were interested in and hopeful about. He paid close attention to the people's stories, their goals, and the problems they had living in the city. With each story, Thomas was more eager to help. He learned that the people of Grandview had a spirit that was just as beautiful as the buildings and trees in the city. He saw opportunities where others saw problems and ways to solve problems where there were differences. Students at Grandview were the first to notice that Thomas was more than just a little kid. The kids ran around him without being scared and laughed as he made faces or gently raised them to give them a better view of the world. Thomas cared about everyone and kept an eye on them to make sure they were safe and happy. The gentle giant was no longer just an interesting thing to adults; it became a friend and a useful tool. They told him about all the things the city needed, like cleaning up the park, getting more children's books for the library, and fixing the bridge that was falling apart. Thomas started to think about how he could help with these projects as he listened. After a few weeks, Thomas was now a member of Grandview. He used his strength to clean up the park and plant new trees with the help of the community. He climbed to the top shelves of the library without using a ladder, where he organized books and told stories that made people laugh. Thomas fixed up the old bridge, which was dangerous for everyone to use before. With each task he finished, Thomas got to know the people of Grandview better. They knew he wanted to learn and help the city very much. They showed him kindness and care from the moment he walked in, and he got to know them better. Thomas's arrival in Grandview was more than just a big deal; it was the start of a very special bond between a titan and a city. Every person he met was touched by his kindness and desire to help. People in Grandview knew that real greatness doesn't come from having a lot of power or money, but from caring about others and wanting to make the world a better place. Thomas, the kind giant, showed them that no problem was too big for a group to handle, and that sometimes the biggest animals have the cleanest hearts. Thomas's acts changed Grandview, leaving an indelible mark on the neighborhood and showing how kind people can change the world. Chapter 2: Making a Proposal Thomas the Caring Titan cast a dark shadow over Grandview, a town known for its calm roads and nice people. Viktor was the person whose shadow it was. He wanted to rule the city more than he wanted to play chess. Viktor had always thought he was the real ruler of Grandview because he had sharp eyes and a sharp mind. He played chess not only for fun, but also to show that he was in charge of the city's issues from a strategic point of view. People were feeling sorry for Thomas and paying attention to him, which made Viktor realize he needed to move quickly to get back on top. Viktor knew how important public opinion was, so he planned to face Thomas in a way that would get a lot of attention and make things hard for the titan. As the city's people gathered in the main square one evening, he made his dare. He spoke loudly enough to be heard over the buildings: "I, Viktor, the best chess player this city has ever seen, challenge Thomas, the newcomer, to a strategic contest. Let this game decide who really deserves to influence Grandview." People in the crowd were both excited and nervous. In Grandview, chess wasn't just a game; it was a test of how smart, strategic, and ahead of time you were. Viktor's task wasn't to play a board game, it was a battle for the center of the city. The news about Viktor's dare spread quickly through Grandview. Everyone talked about the race and guessed whether Thomas, who was good and strong, could match Viktor's intelligence. The stakes were very high because the game would decide not only Viktor and Thomas's place, but also Grandview's future and peace. People in the city were afraid that Viktor would win. Even though Viktor was very smart, he had shown over and over that his main goals were to increase his power and keep control over Grandview's well-being. When Thomas heard about the task, he felt like his shoulder
