SAHARA ADVENTURE SERIES - THUNDERING HOOVES “Thundering Hooves” is the 7th thrilling installment of the “Sahara Adventure series”, where danger always lurks in the scorching Sahara sands. After a daring escape from the fortress stronghold of the Dulac tribe, Teuns Stegmann and his fellow French Foreign Legion soldiers find themselves embroiled in yet another perilous mission. When they bring word to the Legion outpost at Dini Salam that the vengeful Dulac princess Brigitte Bonnet plans to unleash deadly gas weapons on Legion forts, tactics must be swiftly devised. Adding to the turmoil, the legendary sword of Dutra has been stolen from Legion headquarters, igniting rebellion amongst Arab tribes across the desert. With hordes amassing under Bonnet’s command, Captain D’Arlan proposes a covert counterstrike. Accompanied by only two hundred men, he ventures into the swirling sands. Meanwhile, at Fort Laval, Bonnet’s initial attack meets an unexpected twist. All but deserted, the fort holds but a single soldier too drunk to flee. His outrageous tale of the garrison’s departure for Libya leaves the princess reeling. After securing the seemingly abandoned fort, she turns her sights on Fort Petain. Yet Fort Laval holds lethal secrets. When one Dulac warrior escapes the carnage within, Teuns, Fritz and Jack are dispatched to prevent him from alerting Bonnet’s main force, fast approaching Dini Salam. But the trio are swiftly captured by mercenaries in Legion uniforms, deserters who possess the stolen sword. With Teuns as their guide, the deserters seek Bonnet’s army to sell her the sword. Ever resourceful, Teuns seizes an opportunity to recapture the blade and lead the princess into a trap. But Bonnet is cunning, and the desert holds endless perils. Outnumbered and outgunned, the Legion’s garrison clings desperately to a bold strategy as a massive Arab army swarms around Dini Salam. With Dini Salam’s position seeming hopeless, Le Clerq takes a big risk before dawn’s arrival. A red flare shoots into the sky behind the Arab forces. It is a sign Le Clerq has been waiting for. The action swiftly builds to a dramatic and thrilling climax as Le Clerq and D’Arlan’s forces launch a daring surprise counterattack on Bonnet’s unsuspecting army.

Book excerpt: A forbidden forest, hiding mysterious ruins and ancient sorceries. A royal family, torn apart by jealousy and betrayal. A legendary creature, whose appearance may save them all—or destroy the world. Welcome to the Mirrenwood… The royal physician Zimenes is in a bind: his most important patient—and his best friend—King Adalmund is gravely ill and wasting away. A cure exists, but the medicine requires the powdered horn of a unicorn. But the king has sealed off the Mirrenwood forest, and refuses to allow the unicorn to be hunted, despite his friend’s urgent pleas. Everything changes when Adalmund’s daughter Vialle returns to the kingdom. Zimenes taught the young princess to read and write and cast the cards, but he hasn’t seen her since she left to continue her schooling. Vialle is determined to take charge of her father’s cure: she has hired hunters, horses, and hounds, and she persuades her father to open the Mirrenwood. She will be the lure, the “maiden of noble blood” required to draw the unicorn from hiding. Will the hunters find the creature they seek? Will they heal their king, and repair the fractured kingdom? Or does the maze-like Mirrenwood have its own twisted desires? Join Zimenes, Vialle, and their companions on an epic quest that will take them into the dark heart of the Mirrenwood—and beyond.

Download or read book Echo and Reverb written by Peter Doyle and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Echo and Reverb is the first history of acoustically imagined space in popular music recording. The book documents how acoustic effects--reverberation, room ambience, and echo--have been used in recordings since the 1920s to create virtual sonic architectures and landscapes. Author Peter Doyle traces the development of these acoustically-created worlds from the ancient Greek myth of Echo and Narcissus to the dramatic acoustic architectures of the medieval cathedral, the grand concert halls of the 19th century, and those created by the humble parlor phonograph of the early 20th century, and finally, the revolutionary age of rock 'n' roll. Citing recordings ranging from Gene Austin's 'My Blue Heaven' to Elvis Presley's 'Mystery Train,' Doyle illustrates how non-musical sound constructs, with all their rich and contradictory baggage, became a central feature of recorded music. The book traces various imagined worlds created with synthetic echo and reverb--the heroic landscapes of the cowboy west, the twilight shores of south sea islands, the uncanny alleys of dark cityscapes, the weird mindspaces of horror movies, the private and collective spaces of teen experience, and the funky juke-joints of the mind.
