Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two incandescent novels set in David Drake's best-selling Hammer's Slammers universe together in one volume for the first time. In Cross the Stars, Captain Don Slade has resigned from active duty with the Slammers and headed home for what he hopes will be peaceful retirement with his son and the woman he loves. And, even if he makes it through all dangers, he'll discover Tethys is not exactly ready to welcome him home with open arms. The journey home is an Odyssey of epic proportions and Don Slade is just the Ulysses to undertake it. In Voyage, Ned Slade has a heck of a name to live up to: that of his uncle Captain Don "Mad Dog" Slade of the legendary mercenary brigade, Hammer's Slammers. But Ned's life takes a turn to adventure when he crews for Lissea Doorman, a trade-ship captain who is sent by her conniving guild masters on what is supposed to be a suicide run. The crew of the good ship Swift is after an ancient alien artifact that could revolutionize star travel and Ned must become the warrior and leader that is his inheritance. Jason and the Argonauts meets gritty science fiction adventure in one of best-seller David Drake's most compelling works. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Download or read book Voyage in destiny part five written by Francesco Alessandrini and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-04-13 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiny places “knowledge” among the priorities of my work. This text, the fifth in a series, is dedicated to what some Masters of Light of a high level have been transmitting to me for several years. It represents a chapter of my voyage into knowledge; a knowledge that comes from a wider vision of worldly things than that which is normally available to man. This book talks about crop circles, of the fact that they are messages and how I was taught to interpret them. I also argue against current opinions about who makes them and why and how they are made. The story then goes on to the interpretation of a specific circle at Bagnaria Arsa, that was made recently in Friuli, Italy, the region where I live. Its message establishes the entry into a phase of great transformation that man of our time is facing. I describe this transformation and the consequences it will have on humans and life on Earth. Finding that after a period of “demanding” change, as all changes are, a new man will inhabit the Earth, a man endowed with greater emotional balance and with additional powers.

Download or read book Voyage in Destiny Part Three written by Francesco Alessandrini and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-12-29 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiny has placed knowledge among the priorities of my work. This text, the third in a series, is dedicated to what some very high level Masters of Light have been transmitting to me for several years. It represents a chapter of my voyage into knowledge; knowledge that comes from a wider view of worldly things than that which is normally available to man, new knowledge but at the same time ancient. Here I approach the study of three ancient artifacts. I analyze the famous Zodiac of Dendera in Egypt, a very much studied but at the same time misunderstood bas-relief that I later renamed the Great Message of Dendera, for the incredible meaning that I found in it. Then I approach the study of the Sumerian Weld Blundell prism, a terracotta prism with cuneiform writing, the translation of which has left all the researchers who have been challenging themselves with its interpretation confused to say the least: it is an absurd list of multi-millennial antediluvian kings. Finally, I analyze a little known monument of Copacabana, on Lake Titicaca in Bolivia, called the Horca del Inca, which I then renamed the Antenna of Copacabana. The analysis of these findings initially took place with the attitude of the meticulous researcher, but soon began to flow towards the search for the general meaning of the work analyzed. A meaning that, partly supported by logical considerations and partly by an entirely new research approach that we can call the historical-intuitive method, points out that ancient man was endowed with knowledge about the meaning and purpose of Creation much more advanced than that, which is at our disposal today. The rediscovery of this knowledge and of the method of obtaining it is the only possibility that remains to prevent our planet from being destroyed by humans who have lost track of what their purpose is and which direction to take.
Download or read book Voyage to the Star Kingdom written by Anne Riley and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-08 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the small community of Village-Upon-Stone, a storm settles solely over the house of a beloved family. Instead of leading their normal, happy life, the family-a father, a mother, and three young daughters-must battle fierce winds and torrential rain. The other villagers come to the family's aid, but it's no use against the rapidly rising waters. The family and their neighbors pray to the Star King for relief. They know he is good, but they have never endured such a storm; what if he does not send help? But he does, and after the family receives the Star King's gifts, he sends an Angelfish to invite them to a grand banquet at the Radiant Palace. The family is thrilled, but the Star King has asked that the two youngest daughters travel to his kingdom first, with the rest of the family to follow afterwards. The family is alarmed by this request, but the Angelfish reminds them that the Star King does not always do things in the usual way, and they will be with their daughters again sooner than they think. They trust the Star King, so they send the daughters to his kingdom in a makeshift boat led by the Angelfish. On their voyage, the girls experience beauty, darkness, and fear, but eventually reach the Star Kingdom, which immediately feels like home-and the people who greet them there are the greatest surprises of all. Inspired by a real-life family, Voyage to the Star Kingdom is a vivid reminder that our stories don't end with death, and that the King is indeed making all things new. (Storyline collaboration by Amy Grimes and Anne Riley)
