Her entire life has been dedicated to protecting Earth. So much so that she agreed to undergo bio-enhancement surgery to better equip her to fight. But, nothing could prepare her for the greatest fight of her life—overcoming the loss of her fiancé. After three years of grief and suffering, she’s finally ready to move forward and to take control of her life again. Even if that means joining what could potentially be the most dangerous mission Earth has launched in centuries. Minos is a Samou Warrior. The dragon-shifters have long been allies of Earth in their enterprise to keep peace throughout the Galaxy. More than just any warrior, Minos is a high-ranking, confident leader who is prepared to take on any challenge presented to him. When Earth’s safety is compromised, he’s ready and willing to step up and take the lead on the dangerous expedition into deep space. When the two meet, sparks fly. Azura thinks that opening up to Minos about her past will be the most challenging part of the mission. Minos believes that keeping his feelings for her at bay will be his biggest struggle. Little do either of them know, survival itself will soon become their main priority. With only the other to rely on, they will be forced to face both the past and the present while struggling to hold onto hope for the future. Will love conquer all? Or, will the situation, their personal struggles, and the dangers that surround them pull them apart?

But, when Earth is invaded by the Samou, a race of dragon-shifting aliens from one of the Empire's mining planets, her life suddenly takes a very drastic turn. Kidnapped by the human rebels who have joined forces with the Samou, Meagan is ripped away from the security of her home and thrown into the parallel universe of life outside the Capital city. Terrified and alone, she somehow finds comfort in the one person she never expected to. Chronos is the Samou lead warrior. A muscular, exotic, aggressive man, he takes it upon himself to challenge Meagan. He forces her to face the reality of corruption and greed that permeate the Empire she so loyally continues to defend. As the tension between them grows, so does the attraction. The lines between anger and desire quickly become blurred, and in the end, Meagan will be faced to choose between the man she can't resist and the life she's always known.

Download or read book Newgrange Speaks for Itself written by Jacqueline Ingalls Garnett and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firmly grounded in the structure and engravings of Newgrange, this book offers several revolutionary insights into both its science and its religious faith. Forty carved motifs are explained as emblems of site features which the builders provided to ensure an afterlife for the dead, including the nine carved rungs in the passage, the "leak" that delivered water to the chamber bowl and slab, the two round sockets in the rim of the bowl, the stone marbles found in the chamber, and the starry outviews originally possible through the chamber vault. The author argues that some of Michael O'Kelly's discoveries suggest Newgrange may have been retooled when precession displaced the targets of those outviews. The book explores the builders' competent astronomical and mathematical skills, and shows how these were combined with an afterlife faith capable of engaging both mind and spirit. A radical analysis of five related motifs exposes unexpectedly sophisticated characteristics of the Newgrangemen's mode of expression. The rich cluster of afterlife agencies identifiable at Newgrange, unique as a fingerprint, can also be recognized in certain myths, fairytales, religious traditions, and superstitious observances. Mrs. Garnett shows how these resources may shed light on the heretofore almost completely unknown afterlife faith and practice of these stone-age people.

Download or read book Ovid s Metamorphoses written by Elaine Fantham and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-07-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oxford Approaches to Classical Literature (Series Editors: Kathleen Coleman and Richard Rutherford) introduces individual works of Greek and Latin literature to readers who are approaching them for the first time. Each volume sets the work in its literary and historical context, and aims to offer a balanced and engaging assessment of its content, artistry, and purpose. A brief survey of the influence of the work upon subsequent generations is included to demonstrate its enduring relevance and power. All quotations from the original are translated into English. Ovid's Metamorphoses have been seen as both the culmination of and a revolution in the classical epic tradition, transferring narrative interest from war to love and fantasy. This introduction considers how Ovid found and shaped his narrative from the creation of the world to his own sophisticated times, illustrating the cruelty of jealous gods, the pathos of human love, and the imaginative fantasy of flight, monsters, magic, and illusion. Elaine Fantham introduces the reader not only to this marvelous and complex narrative poem, but to the Greek and Roman traditions behind Ovid's tales of transformation and a selection of the images and texts that it inspired.
