Raised as a foundling, never knowing her true history, she must learn to accept the terrible gifts of her heritage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixth book in the Sword-Dancer saga continues the legendary adventures of Tiger and Del, magic wielders and skilled warriors The South had always been Tiger’s home. Left as an infant to die in the desert, his real origins were unknown. When he won his freedom from the tribe who enslaved him by slaying a deadly sandtiger, he joined the elite brotherhood of Southron sword-dancers, swearing a lifelong oath to abide by their code of honor. Del was a woman of the North. She had seen her family brutally murdered and her brother carried away to the South to be sold into slavery. Motivated by revenge, she studied with the greatest of Northern sword-masters and became the deadliest sword-singer in the North. Together these two legendary fighters had forged an unlikely partnership of equals, sharing adventures, danger, and eventually love. But when Tiger forfeited an important sword dance to rescue Del, he broke his sworn code of honor—and his sentence was death. Fugitives from both the North and the South, Tiger and Del flee to the distant island of Skandi. Tiger has been told he resembles the people who comes from this remote land, and now, Tiger seeks his true identity. But Skandi proves no safe haven. Abducted by priest-mages, altered in mind and body, Tiger is forced to acknowledge that he possesses his own special brand of magic. A personal magic that carries its own price: Tiger will only have ten or twelve more years to live. But as Tiger and Del struggle to escape, Tiger’s long-dormant power begins to manifest. He falls victim to visions he cannot dismiss, dreams of a dead woman luring him into the crystal sands of the Punja, the South’s deadliest desert. “Find me,” she bids him, “and take up the sword.” Initially, Tiger rebels, refusing the siren song of his dreams. But at last, helpless to deny the compulsion in his own blood, Tiger must accept his magic and his fate. Yet can he avoid paying the terrible price that they threaten to extract?
Download or read book The Supersonic Bone written by Kenneth Katz and published by Pen and Sword Aviation. This book was released on 2022-03-18 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This profusely illustrated and thoroughly researched book conveys a wealth of information” about the USAF’s B-1 bomber (Aviation History Magazine). When the B-52 Stratofortress entered operational service with the US Air Force in 1955, work was already underway on defining its successor. The B-70 Valkyrie, a Mach 3 jet bomber, was one option. Although two XB-70A prototypes flew, the B-70 never went into production. Out of the subsequent Advanced Manned Strategic Aircraft program came the B-1A bomber, which flew at high speed and low altitude to evade enemy air defenses. But the B-1A was cancelled in favor of fitting the B-52 with cruise missiles. The B-1, known as the BONE, was revived in 1981 as the improved B-1B to boost American military power and serve as a symbol of American strength at the peak of Cold War tensions. The B-1B entered service in 1986 with several deficiencies. The resolution of most of these issues coincided with the end of the Cold War. After the Cold War, the B-1B lost its primary nuclear mission but remained relevant by transforming into a high-speed, long-range, high-payload delivery platform for conventional precision-guided munitions. The first combat use of the B-1B was in 1998 in Iraq. The BONE has proved a highly effective combat aircraft in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and the former Yugoslavia. This extensively illustrated book traces the BONE’s long development and operational history in detail. “A must-read book . . . a great reference for historians, pilots, engineers, and even policy makers. Both the writing and photos are excellent.” —Air & Space Power History

Book excerpt: CHAMPION PART 11 Chapter 350: I am the Sword Master Murong Yeu goes, bringing with him helplessness and regret! She knew that the resentment between Duong Diep and Kiem Tong at that time could not be resolved at all, and to be precise, it was not something he could resolve! Even though she was a disciple of the Sword Sect, she had to admit that the Sword Sect's actions towards Duong Diep were indeed a bit too much... Unfortunately, this was not something she said she could manage. Furthermore, although Kien Tong failed Duong Diep, it did not fail Mo Dung Yeu, so no matter what, she will only stand on Kiem Tong's side! "It's just a pity..." Mo Dung Yeu sighed in her heart. After Mo Dung Yeu left, 20 strange men in black appeared behind Duong Diep. Duong Diep shot out with his hand, two precepts falling into the hands of a man in black holding the head of a man in black. Seeing this scene, everyone behind the leader in black was immediately excited, then quickly bowed to Duong Diep and said: "Thank you, Sword Master!" They had already arrived at the scene of the war between the Human Mystics and the Demonic Clans, so they knew very well what this precept was about! Heaven-level Xuan Bao, Earth-level Xuan Bao... Especially heaven-level Xuan Bao, the vast majority of them have never even seen it! And Duong Diep did not hesitate to give it to Thuy, which made them both excited and moved! "Sword master?" Hearing that address, Duong Diep was stunned, then said: "Lanh Quan, when did I become Sword Master of the Stars?" Lanh Quan put on the precepts, smiled, then said: "It's not that we haven't known how to address you, directly calling you by name, this seems too disrespectful. So we'll give you a name to think about! The reason why we chose this title, Sword Master, is because you use a sword, and your swordsmanship is unparalleled!" "Unparalleled swordsmanship?" Duong Diep shook his head and smiled, then said seriously: "Don't say these things. Tell me how your strength has increased during this time!" Lanh Quan nodded and said: "During this time, your brothers' strength has improved very well. I and Lanh Ngan, under the influence of Bang Lanh Qua, have reached the peak of King Realm, separated from Linh Gia." The realm is only half a step away. There are still a few brothers who, with the help of Ice Spirit Fruit, have also reached the peak of the King's Realm, but the realm is not yet very stable. There are still sixty-two famous brothers I have reached the eighth level of the King's Stage, the rest are basically between the third and seventh levels of the King's Stage, but even if they are some extremely strong people at the King's Stage, they are also possible assassinate!" "How cruel is this thing compared to the Ancient Battlefield?" Duong Diep asked softly. Lanh Quan was momentarily silent. Before, what he said about level-crossing assassination was just the Southern Region profounder, and this Ancient Region City, this demon, these are all existences that can cross-level to challenge! Wanting to go through a level and kill them is difficult, very difficult! "Strength is not enough!" Duong Diep Dao: "After we go down later, you let them continue to work hard to improve their strength. You don't have to worry about the Mystic Treasure technique and the Energy Stone, I will deal with it! But , I need to get results, I don't want to be a waste, understand?"
