Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaving Amsterdam, twenty engaging personalities begin a seven-day bike and barge excursion through the Netherlands. Allegiances form, love interests develop, conflicts arise, and a cyclist’s lifeless body mars their arrival in Maastricht. Who is responsible? The insulted chef? An angry deckhand? The most antagonized among the guests? Everyone onboard, the result of a well-wrought plot? Eros? Could the culprit be the god of love whose arrows never miss their mark and whose intentions never falter? Editorial Review JD Shipton Cupid? No. Not on this voyage. Instead we catch a ride on the breeze with Eros, and on the Dutch canals with the river barge Amoretto Algea. The perspectives from each are engaging, even challenging at times. What do you really know about love and the whims of the gods? Sterling understands well these unfathomables and the questions we ought to be asking.

Can she uncover the truth before the murderer strikes again?

Download or read book Flash written by L. E. Modesitt, Jr. and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Return to the future of Archform: Beauty. In the twenty-fourth century, Earth is vastly changed. Ecological and biological catastrophe have raged across the planet, but for the survivors, it is a world of plenty. Even the poorest live in abundance, and the upper class -- the ascendant -- command technological marvels. Ten years ago, Jonat deVrai was a rising star in the Marines. But he shocked his superiors by walking away from the Corps after witnessing atrocity and hypocrisy during the Reclamation of Guyana. Starting his life over, he established himself as the world's expert on the effectiveness of "prod"-- product placement, the only advertising which viewers will allow through the sophisticated filters they all use against unwanted intrusions on their electronic link networks. Prod, reinforced with sublims and the "res" -- resonant frequencies, a form of sonic branding -- is the wave of the future. Jonat now advises multinational corporations on their prod campaigns, his busy life only occasionally disturbed by vivid flashbacks to his military years. Then his comfortable world is upset when the Centre for Societal Research approaches him to study the effects of res and prod on political campaigns. After a res-heavy political rally for Laborite Republican Senatorial candidate Juan Carlismo, armed thugs jump deVrai in a parking garage. A day later, a sniper ambushes him. What looked like a safe, lucrative contract has suddenly turned dangerous. The stakes raise further when deVrai foils a remote-controlled cydroid assassination attempt on a Popular Democrat candidate. Cydroids built from deVrai's stolen DNA are turning up dead throughout NorAm. Suspicion and conspiracy race around Jonat. Who wants him dead? Candidate Juan Carlismo's use of prod is skirting the limits of legality. The Centre has its own obscure agenda and may want deVrai as a martyr. The terrorist group PAMD is targeting ascendents in deVrai's family. And one of his clients is known for holding legendary grudges - could he have gone over the edge? With his life on the line, deVrai must sort flash from fact before it's too late. Flash is a blend of all-out thriller and thoughtful social, political, and technological exploration that that gets into your mind in a way even res and prod could never match. "A marvelous thriller that plausibly extrapolates from current possibilities in IT, AI, media, and crime, it also constitutes the way for newcomers to get acquainted with Modesitt--at his best."--Booklist Other Series by L.E.

Download or read book One The Present Truth Spirit Matrix written by Ron Lopez and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-12-13 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1. The phenomenon "One: the Present Truth-Spirit Matrix" is claimed to be the Holy Spirit's dossier. It is an ethereal tsunami that challenges what was once Christian reasoning. Another realm becomes articulated. It is a behind-the-scenes of man's salvation, the covert missions, light challenging darkness's cunning. This viewpoint is of an alternate stratus, a colossal exposure from a spirit messenger's influence, the writings principle, a "no holds barred" approach. 2. One-spirit matrix addresses most all the spirit answers I've ever doubted. As a Christian, this is now the most important book that I own other than my dusted-off Bible. It explains so many biblical enigmas; it is a miracle that so much is covered. After years of not buying into religious illogic, I quit hopping churches. I was accused of backsliding. This book revived my interest and trust in God and the Bible again. It does not confuse incidents. It actually reveals deceptions being promulgated. I again am a professing Christian. The matrix mainly applies logic and reason. 3.As a seminarian, I find this work most intriguing; thing is, I believe most all of it. There is more sense made here than in my "take it by faith" studies. All my secret doubts have vaporized. I would love to learn more; I've basked in rereading this dossier several times. I have it highlighted like my Bible. It demands your complete consideration. This clarifies meanings of so many events. It is as though a veil has been rent in two. I now see Jesus in everything. There is no more a quest for meaning; it all makes sense now. The bullets on the back cover a fraction. There is so much more deciphered. 4. I am a PK, after having read this dossier; I lay awake rethinking my life's conditioned beliefs. I'm perturbed actually; there is no reason our institutions couldn't have discovered these realities. I now realize that I am a royal priest in training. Reality has landed, I am already seeing changes on so many levels. The Bible is now a grand cinema wherein I see and understand God's master plan with Paul's clarity. The spirit wars revealed are too mammoth to have been missed by possibly every denomination. We have been blinded. Either these truths have been recklessly missed, or we are being misled intentionally, which I now suspect the latter. 5. "The present truth" exposes deep mysteries of covert missions given to both Adams. They both died for their bride's sake; they truly had parallel missions. The reader is privileged to have an eagle's view of the Bible from a spirit's vantage point. This spirit's reveal is unlike any other than the Bible. The reader is suddenly swept into a spirit dimension where men are pieces in a chess-type match. This alternate reality reveals men being manipulated by darkness's "interference." You become initiated into a matrix knowledge zone. Had our ministers taught us these truths, I believe the planet would be different.
