Book excerpt: Captain Liam Synar and his officers have uncovered a web of corruption in the Peace Alliance. After the death of two generals and one high ambassador, the Guardian 13 is grounded from missions for two weeks. Since their leave is mandatory, several of the crew members have decided to make the most of their enforced vacation time and head off on short adventures planetside. Among the first of those heading off is Lieutenant Seta Trax who is trying to transmute her grief for her deceased twin into something positive--something Rena would have wanted to see happen. Her father has sought her help to track down something which he claims was stolen from him. If she is successful in her quest, her other female siblings will be allowed to have a say in their mated futures. She can't--no make that won't--let a Siren with a determination to mate her, stop her from her task. Lieutenant Ji Warro gave up his captaincy for her and claims he wants to help with her quest, but his presence makes everything she'd doing just more complicated. Her life is growing more and more uncertain as the alien spirit she hosts grows restless within her. Does she have what it takes to control the demon who shares her life? More importantly, how long can she continue to refuse the only male she's ever given herself to willingly?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seta doesn't want another mate. Ji doesn't want anyone but her. Lieutenant Seta Trax needs to transmute her grief for her deceased twin into something positive-something Rena would have wanted to happen. Her tyrannical father has asked her to track down a treasure he claims was stolen from him. If she is successful in her quest, her father will allow her female siblings a say in their mated futures. With the freedom of her sisters at risk, Seta can't-no make that won't-let a Siren determined to mate get in her way. Ji Warro claims he gave up his captaincy for her and that he wants to help with her quest. Pretending to be her union suitor though just makes everything she's doing more complicated. It's bad enough that the alien spirit she hosts is growing restless within her. Does she have what it takes to control the demon who shares her life? Only time has the answer. More importantly, how long can Seta continue to refuse to love the only male she's ever given herself to willingly? ***This is a Science Fiction Romantic Comedy (some might call it a Space Opera). If you like the alien-human interactions in Star Trek, Firefly, and Guardians of the Galaxy, you'll enjoy the humor in the Forced To Serve series.

Download or read book The Lion Tracker s Guide To Life written by Boyd Varty and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Somewhere deep inside, you know what your gift, purpose, and mission are. Boyd Varty, a lion tracker and life coach, reveals how the wisdom from the ancient art of tracking can teach you how to recognize these essential ingredients in a meaningful life. Know how to navigate, don’t worry about the destination, and stay alert. These are just a few of the strategies that contribute to both successful lion tracking and a life of fulfillment. When we join Boyd Varty and his two friends tracking lions, we are immersed in the South African bush, and, although we learn some of the skills required for actual tracking, the takeaways are the strategies that can be applied to our everyday lives. Trackers learn how to use all of their senses to read the environment and enter into a state of “greater aliveness.” When we learn to find and follow our inner tracks, we learn to see what is deeply important to us. In the same way the trip in the classic Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was a vehicle to examine how to live out our values, the story of this one-day adventure—with danger and suspense along the way—uses the ancient art of tracking to convey profound lessons on how to live a purposeful, meaningful life of greater harmony.

Download or read book The Cinema of Michael Haneke written by Ben McCann and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-29 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Haneke is one of the most important directors working in Europe today, with films such as Funny Games (1997), Code Unknown (2000), and Hidden (2005) interrogating modern ethical dilemmas with forensic clarity and merciless insight. Haneke's films frequently implicate both the protagonists and the audience in the making of their misfortunes, yet even in the barren nihilism of The Seventh Continent (1989) and Time of the Wolf (2003) a dark strain of optimism emerges, releasing each from its terrible and inescapable guilt. It is this contingent and unlikely possibility that we find in Haneke's cinema: a utopian Europe. This collection celebrates, explicates, and sometimes challenges the worldview of Haneke's films. It examines the director's central themes and preoccupations—bourgeois alienation, modes and critiques of spectatorship, the role of the media—and analyzes otherwise marginalized aspects of his work, such as the function of performance and stardom, early Austrian television productions, the romanticism of The Piano Teacher (2001), and the 2007 shot-for-shot remake of Funny Games.
