Book excerpt: The pursuit of the man who murdered their life-long friend on the streets of London has forced Giles, Michael, Francis, and their newfound companion Vasily to the shores of far-off Brazil, an unfamiliar land to them. They are forced to rely on themselves only to traverse through dark paths to catch the mysterious fleeing criminal, Alikhan. Unbeknownst to them, they have become players in a global struggle among Illuminati-like forces, each striving to land the ultimate death blow to dominate the other. The mystery cargo transported south by Alikhan is one such terrorism operation that the three friends from London inadvertently have been dragged into. They are forced to confront many terrors as before they lay many crime networks that plague the region. They must find a way to capture Alikhan and stop his supporting gang from transporting the dangerous cargo across southern Brazil. Along their journey, they find themselves always behind their enemy, outgunned and outnumbered, always striving to anticipate the next move and purpose of the criminals. Constantly presented with the natural choice to quit and flee, the four muster their courage to continue, only to find that fortune sometimes smiles on them. They are rewarded with help found from new friends. Their quest stretches from the Atlantic Ocean coast and proceeds further from civilisation towards the sparsely inhabited regions in the interior where bandits reign supreme. As they race further west into Brazil’s interior, the scale and reach of destruction, pillaging and banditry shock and horrify the companions. Unknown to the outside world, long has this region suffered under the persecution of those who seek power and profit. They discover by accident hidden people who still hold out against the evildoers and share a common enemy. But the plans and machinations of the criminals are fast coming to fruition, and the friends are forced to divulge details of the conspiracy of the dangerous cargo they are pursuing. They are thrown into a last desperate war of life and death for the persecuted people of the region. Murder and destruction sweep the lands as the friends are scattered and pushed to oblivion. The search for peace, happiness, and redemption strains their relationship. Giles’ underlying struggles to find joy in this world force him to question the point of continuing towards more significant dangers and seeing him at odds with those who want to persevere. He finds romance with an astute local woman, Elisabetta, who offers Giles the path to a new serene life. Torn in two and faced with the choice to continue pursuing Alikhan or grasp his dreams with Elisabetta, Giles is ultimately forced towards a lonely end where betrayal and death become his last companions.

As Serenity made her way toward her eternal destination, she hoped to find her friend waiting on the other side.

In 2018, Trevor met Mary O'Neil, who told of Serenity's plight. He considered the story a fictional tale designed to convert him to Christ and was not persuaded. The stories were suddenly entwined, but would it change his mind?

Download or read book Words about Pictures written by Perry Nodelman and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A pioneering study of a unique narrative form, Words about Pictures examines the special qualities of picture books--books intended to educate or tell stories to young children. Drawing from a number of aesthetic and literary sources, Perry Nodelman explores the ways in which the interplay of the verbal and visual aspects of picture books conveys more narrative information and stimulation than either medium could achieve alone. Moving from "baby" books, alphabet books, and word books to such well-known children's picture books as Nancy Ekholm Burkert's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Gerald McDermott's Arrow to the Sun, Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are, and Chris Van Allsburg's The Garden of Abdul Gasazi, Nodelman reveals how picture-book narrative is affected by the exclusively visual information of picture-book design and illustration as well as by the relationships between pictures and their complementary texts."--pub. desc.
