Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few decades, archaeologists and cultural scientists have come to a better understanding of the extent of Neolithic civilisation on the Balkan peninsula. This Danube Civilisation, thriving between the 6th and 4th millennia BCE, was using a writing system long before the Mesopotamians and is remarkable for its accomplishments in craftsmanship, art and urban development. In this book, Harald Haarmann provides the first comprehensive insight into this enigmatic Old European culture, which is still largely unknown to the greater public. He describes the trade routes, settlements, mythology and writing system of this people, traces the changes resulting from the arrival of the Indo-Europeans, and shows how this first advanced civilisation in Europe influenced its successors.

Download or read book Danube Defiance written by Jane Golden and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DANUBE DEFIANCE, by critically appraised novelist JANE GOLDEN, is an enthralling mystery about an art heist involving ancient icon art. Travel with super sleuth, Jeni, as she ventures through the antique markets in New Orleans' French Quarter and across the ocean to Eastern Europe's bustling city of Bucharest and the Romanian countryside. Jeni stumbles upon one clue that leads to others. Something doesn't add up, and she gathers a few friends... an antiquities expert, a journalist, and a dashing New Orleans shopkeeper. Together, they follow a river of clues and dead bodies. But will the thieves get them first? Read to find out! CLARION REVIEW: "Golden's first-hand knowledge of Romania is fascinating." BLUEINK REVIEW: "Nothing makes an overworked genre like mystery seem quite so fresh as a story set in an exotic locale. SECRETS IN THE VINES takes this theory to heart, offering up a murder mystery set in the wine country surrounding Romania. It's a winning formula." "Author Jane Golden drew on her own time in Bucharest to set up this tale, and it pays off nicely. Observations about the life of a foreigner trying to make sense of a new culture are spot-on and often funny; thoughts about parking customs and the laconic pace of government reflect an outsider's tendency to compare things to life at home, while also taking us deeper into the atmosphere. The mystery is gripping, but it's the setting that steals the show." The review concludes with this about SECRETS IN THE VINES: It has a "terrific pacing and a plot that ends well." Better yet, the reviewer states that "we're left wanting more of this juicy escapism." KIRKUS REVIEWS: "An engaging mystery that turns the classic expatriate dream on its head." Marian Petrutza, President of the Romanian-American Press Association: "The perfect vacation book.... Colorful, entertaining, and beautifully written."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a voyage from another era, the detective encounters a thoroughly modern murder The Danube Express was once the most famous train on the continent. Linking east and west, it was the fastest route from the Alps to the Black Sea, until airplanes and automobiles made it obsolete. When a group of savvy investors revived it in the 1970s, it became an Express only in name. A five-star hotel on wheels, it is now a luxurious icon—and it’s celebrating its twenty-fifth anniversary. Some of the most glamorous figures in the world have booked passage on this historic trip, and riding among them is London’s gourmet detective, who has come to sample the Danube’s famous cooking. But when a Hungarian actress disappears from the train, it turns out to be more than a publicity stunt. Soon it is clear that a killer lurks on the Danube Express, and plans on taking it all the way to the end of the line.

Download or read book Death on the Danube written by Barbara Lipkin and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-02 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The past is never dead. It's not even past." William Faulkner said it first, but Bella realizes how true that sentiment is while visiting the Belvedere Museum in Vienna and viewing examples of "degenerate art," so-defined by Adolph Hitler back in the 1930's. In fact, reminders of the Nazi era are everywhere in Eastern Europe, and Bella finds that the events of that time are still exerting their influence today. But some of the passengers cruising the Rhine-Main-Danube Rivers on the M/S River Muse will never again need to worry about these things, or anything else. It was meant to be an idyllic cruise on the Danube, filled with castles and romance. But first the omelet maker disappeared, and then a body was found in the refrigerator, and Bella Sarver and her new husband, Art Halperin, were suddenly up to their necks in murder - again. Past history and drama play havoc with the present in this newest adventure of artist-turned-amateur sleuth Bella Sarver.
