Book excerpt: A fierce, searing response to the chaos of the war on terror—an utterly original and blackly comic debut In the early years of the Iraq War, a severely burned boy appears on a remote rock formation in the Akkad Valley. A shadowy, powerful group within the U.S. government speculates: Who is he? Where did he come from? And, crucially, what does he know? In pursuit of that information, an interrogator is summoned from his prison cell, and a hideous and forgotten apparatus of torture, which extracts "perfect confessions," is retrieved from the vaults. Over the course of four days, a cavalcade of voices rises up from the Akkad boy, each one striving to tell his or her own story. Some of these voices are familiar: Osama bin Laden, L. Paul Bremer, Condoleezza Rice, Mark Zuckerberg. Others are less so. But each one has a role in the world shaped by the war on terror. Each wants to tell us: This is the world as it exists in our innermost selves. This is what has been and what might be. This is The Infernal.

Download or read book 100 Animated Feature Films written by Andrew Osmond and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years ago, animated features were widely perceived as cartoons for children. Today, though, they encompass an astonishing range of films, styles and techniques. There is the powerful adult drama of Waltz with Bashir; the Gallic sophistication of Belleville Rendez-Vous; the eye-popping violence of Japan's Akira; and the stop-motion whimsy of Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. Andrew Osmond provides an entertaining and illuminating guide to the endlessly diverse world of animated features, with entries on 100 of the most interesting and important animated films from around the world, from the 1920s to the present day. There are key studio brands such as Disney, Pixar and Dreamworks, but there are also recognised auteur directors such as America's Brad Bird (The Incredibles) and Japan's Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away). Technologies such as motion-capture, used in films such as Avatar, blur the distinctions between live-action and animation. Meanwhile, lone artists such as Nina Paley (Sita Sings the Blues) and Bill Plympton (Idiots and Angels) make entire films by themselves. Blending in-depth history and criticism, 100 Animated Feature Films balances the blockbusters with local success stories from Eastern Europe to Hong Kong. There are entries on Dreamworks' Shrek, Pixar's Toy Story, and Disney's The Jungle Book, but you will also find pieces on Germany's silhouette-based The Adventures of Prince Achmed, the oldest surviving animated feature; on the thirty year production of Richard Williams' legendary opus, The Thief and the Cobbler; and on the lost work of Argentina's Quirino Cristiani, who reputedly made the first animated feature in 1917.

Book excerpt: . . . AND THEN THERE WERE SIX In all the world, there have only ever been seven dragons, creatures of incalculable strength and wisdom with magical powers beyond those of even the greatest wizard. Some say the dragons are as old as time. Others say they will live forever. They are wrong. A dragon has died. Even worse: It was murdered. And if the killer is not found soon, a cataclysmic war will break out that could lead to the deaths of tens of thousands of people. Unless, of course, the remaining six dragons decide to take revenge first. Now three heroes must discover who slew the dragon: Major Heathrow Kristoff, the Wind Knight, a fighter of unmatched agility and swordsmanship; Captain Reize Risukasse, a beautiful young woman with deadly combat skills; and Edwarth Thizwerks Markwhistle, a representative of the powerful Seven Seas Alliance, who hides his features behind a mysterious mask. Together they make a formidable team. But even if they manage to catch the killer in time, how can they possibly hope to defeat an enemy powerful enough to murder a dragon?
