Be prepared to lose sleep!"--James Rollins, international bestselling author of the "Sigma Force" series ★★★★★ "J.R. Rain weaves a tapestry of interesting, believable characters with a dynamite plot. You will root for the heroes, want to cry a bit in the ending chapters. This book makes you wonder, what if the ark really was found in this day in age. What would society believe as a whole after a find like that was authenticated? The Lost Ark has a lot of action for those of us that like that genre and plenty of mystery." ―Amazon reviewer ★★★★★ "I have personally been in the Land of Noah and have been mesmerized by the beauty and mystery of Mount Ararat.

The finding of the ark was exciting and on the edge of my seat the pages just seem to turn themselves. I couldn't wait to get closer to the ending of this book that is full of intrigue. Of course when I did, I was sad it was over. I love J.R. Rain books and can't wait to read more of them. I highly recommend The Lost Ark and hope you enjoy it as much as I did!" ―Amazon reviewer ★★★★★ "The Lost Ark is jam-packed with adventure, action, and a little romance thrown in for good measure. The main character, Sam Ward, is a typical J R Rain tough guy with an off beat sense of humor. I would LOVE to see a movie made from this book." ―Amazon reviewer

Download or read book Steven Spielberg written by Molly Haskell and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A film-centric portrait of the extraordinarily gifted movie director whose decades-long influence on American popular culture is unprecedented Everything about me is in my films, Steven Spielberg has said. Taking this as a key to understanding the hugely successful moviemaker, Molly Haskell explores the full range of Spielberg s works for the light they shine upon the man himself. Through such powerhouse hits as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T., Jurassic Park, and Indiana Jones, to lesser-known masterworks like A.I. and Empire of the Sun, to the haunting Schindler s List, Haskell shows how Spielberg s uniquely evocative filmmaking and story-telling reveal the many ways in which his life, work, and times are entwined. Organizing chapters around specific films, the distinguished critic discusses how Spielberg s childhood in non-Jewish suburbs, his parents traumatic divorce, his return to Judaism upon his son s birth, and other events echo in his work. She offers a brilliant portrait of the extraordinary director a fearful boy living through his imagination who grew into a man whose openness, generosity of spirit, and creativity have enchanted audiences for more than 40 years.
Download or read book The Ark Before Noah written by Irving Finkel and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent translation of a Babylonian tablet launches a groundbreaking investigation into one of the most famous stories in the world, challenging the way we look at ancient history. Since the Victorian period, it has been understood that the story of Noah, iconic in the Book of Genesis, and a central motif in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, derives from a much older story that existed centuries before in ancient Babylon. But the relationship between the Babylonian and biblical traditions was shrouded in mystery. Then, in 2009, Irving Finkel, a curator at the British Museum and a world authority on ancient Mesopotamia, found himself playing detective when a member of the public arrived at the museum with an intriguing cuneiform tablet from a family collection. Not only did the tablet reveal a new version of the Babylonian Flood Story; the ancient poet described the size and completely unexpected shape of the ark, and gave detailed boat building specifications. Decoding this ancient message wedge by cuneiform wedge, Dr. Finkel discovered where the Babylonians believed the ark came to rest and developed a new explanation of how the old story ultimately found its way into the Bible. In The Ark Before Noah, Dr. Finkel takes us on an adventurous voyage of discovery, opening the door to an enthralling world of ancient voices and new meanings.
