Unclean Spirits (The Black Sun's Daughter, Book 1)

M.L.N. Hanover

Denver is lousy with monsters and mayhem in this urban fantasy series launch by epic fantasist Daniel Abraham (The Long Price Quartet series), his first venture under the Hanover pen name. Stereotypically plucky heroine Jayn Heller stumbles into a world of dangerous magic when she inherits a distant uncles fortune and his difficulties with a clan of malicious supernatural beings. Jayn likewise gains her uncles loose conglomerate of useful friends, all of whom have about one character trait apiece (the chef, the Frenchman, the ex-Jesuit), and she plots with them to destroy her uncles murderer, the sinister Randolph Coin. When trouble threatens, Jayn displays startling monster-fighting abilities, belatedly attributed to her uncle's blessing. Abrahams smooth prose and zippy action sequences sag under the weight of clichs. <i>(Dec.)</i> <br />Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Each of us was born of wolf and man, and marked by the moon harlot with her silver when the Change came on us. We cannot hate you because you were born of the blood that murdered our Father, for many among us were born of that blood as well. “But you have heard our truth, and you reject it. You have felt the wrath of the spirits, and you do not abase yourselves before them. You wear the silver brands of the slave with honor, rather than purging them from you with flame. “We do not hate the ignorant child. But you are grown, and you know, and you still do not kneel.

The Porpoise-Given Life: Inspiration from the Cetacean Nation

Chris B. Hughes

Chris Hughes playfully fuses his love of dolphins and the teaching of the Bible in this helpful book. By exploring the wisdom of the dolphins and how they live and thrive in the oceans, he invites us to consider how they might model for us a better way of living, a way more closely aligned with the Scriptures. I highly recommend this book for all who seek to live wisely and joyfully. --Scott Taylor, Founder and Executive Director of the Cetacean Studies Institute and author of <i>Souls in the Sea </i><br /><br />Too many followers of Jesus look like they've been born in crab-apple season. Chris Hughes has produced a firecracker of a book to throw into every crowd of cranky, contentious, humorless Christians. Read <i>The Porpoise-Given Life,</i> and many times your mouth will fill up with one of the best sounds in the world: laughter. Am I the only one out there who wants to die laughing? --Leonard Sweet, E. Stanley Jones Professor of Evangelism, Drew Theological School, Visiting Distinguished Professor, George Fox University<br /><br />Chris Hughes tosses science and spirituality into a blender and pours out a cosmic cocktail guaranteed to make you smile. --Rev. Howard Hanger, Pastor, The Jubilee Community, Asheville, North Carolina

Transit By Ben Aaronovitch Prologue The Doctor stood alone on a Devonian beach and tried to persuade the lungfish to return to the sea. 'You won't like it,' said the Doctor. He noticed that the fish's fins had become short stubby legs. It had become an Ichthyostega, the first true amphibian. The Doctor checked his watch. About two million years early at that. 'You're making a big mistake,' said the Doctor. The amphibian ignored him, its flat head fixed on the line of cool vegetation ahead. It had covered a quarter of the distance across the hot white sand. 'I know it's crowded in there,' pleaded the Doctor. 'I know the food chain is overstocked, I know it's a fish-eat-fish ocean ...' He trailed off. The gill slits had healed up, the legs lengthened. Claws sprouted from the feet. The panting mouth was full of teeth. From across the sea came the sound of

The Ivory Triangle (AD&D/Dark Sun Boxed Set, Accessory) (Accessory Boxed Set, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, 2nd Edition, 2418)

TSR

In the forests of Gulg live elite hunters called the Judaga Warriors, who claim the heads of their prey as trophies. Behind the walls of Nibenay (built with the blood and toil of countless slaves), decadent markets promise myriad experiences to those who have money to spend and courage to spare. Across the desolate salt flats of the Great Ivory Plain, a handful of bold merchant outposts and slave tribes struggle to exist and to exploit unwary wanderers. Amidst all, a sinister poisoner of the Tablelands plies his trade on the border between life and death. These dangers and more lie within that region called the Ivory Triangle - the ideal setting for continuing adventures on the deadly world of Athas!

Battletech Era Report 3052 *OP

Catalyst Game Labs

CAT35220 Era Report 3052 CBT Supplement<br /> <br />By Catalyst Game Labs<br /><br />For three hundred years, the nations of the Inner Sphere waged war in the name of the fallen Star League, sending armies of MechWarriors into battle for glory and power. Yet even as BattleMechs clashed over the forgotten ruins of humanitys Golden Age, the descendants of the long-lost Star League Defense Force gathered their might among distant stars.<br /><br />Then, in 3048, amid reports of a technological renaissance in the Sphere, the leaders of Kerenskys children decided the time for invasion had come. The Clan Invasion would transform the face of warfare and the fate of nations across the Inner Sphere, marking an all new era for all of humankind.<br /><br />Era Report: 3052 describes the state of the Inner Sphere and the Clans at a pivotal period in BattleTech history: the early years of the Clan Invasion. Presented as a general overview of the period, rather than a focused report on a single conflict, this book includes descriptions of every major Inner Sphere and Clan faction. Notable personalities, military forces, and an overview of the technological capabilities of the Inner Sphere and Clan powers of this critical era in history are also provided, along with special advanced-level rules for campaigns set in this era, whether played using the Total Warfare core rules or those found in A Time of War: The BattleTech RPG.

C. Peter Wagner

Many people today don't know what idolatry really is. Peter Wagner opens our understanding to the truths about this subject and how it can creep into our lives and churches. If we as individuals and as a church want to become all that God wants us to become, we must say no to hard-core idolatry and forever close the door it has opened to the demonic realm.

45 Master Characters: Mythic Models for Creating Original Characters

Victoria Lynn Schmidt

Screenwriter Schmidt offers a book for writers struggling with characterization, emphasizing interesting, believable women characters. Looking to mythology for such types as Aphrodite, Artemis, and Zeus, Schmidt concisely outlines each type's cares and concerns, strengths and weaknesses, and likely reaction to common problems. She also gives familiar examples from TV, films, and books. For example, Sam Malone of Cheers is a "Joker," and the "Shadow" is all the terrified characters surrounding Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween. Most blocked writers will find useful leads here, but debating the examples do Lucy Lawless and Sandra Bullock both qualify as Amazons? could easily become one of the better teaching uses of this book. Recommended for creative writing collections and workshops. Robert Moore, Parexel Corp., Waltham, MA <br />Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.

CONRNCTCR NRCY~cTypCS ARCHETYPES As said in Section One of these rules, a player can begin the game by rolling up a character using volume one of Adventures on Tekumel: Growing up on Tekumel. The player then takes the character through the solitaire adventures in Parts Two, Three, and Four of that same series to provide skills, possessions, and personal history. Some players may not wish to use the roll-up process. For these, various pre-rolled "archetypes" are pro- vided below. Each of these ready-made characters includes statistics and a brief description . An idea of some of these characters' dress and appearance is given on the picture pages. The human archetypes are all about 20 years of age, both male and female, with comparable skills and abilities . Priests are given in pairs which share identical statistics and spells (a feature of the game sys- tem) . All of the priests have had much the same training in priestly and magical learning, although their doctrines differ greatly.

H. P. Lovecraft

"The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown."<br />--H. P. LOVECRAFT, "Supernatural Horror in Literature" <br />Howard Phillips Lovecraft forever changed the face of horror, fantasy, and science fiction with a remarkable series of stories as influential as the works of Poe, Tolkien, and Edgar Rice Burroughs. His chilling mythology established a gateway between the known universe and an ancient dimension of otherworldly terror, whose unspeakable denizens and monstrous landscapes--dread Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, the Plateau of Leng, the Mountains of Madness--have earned him a permanent place in the history of the macabre. <br />In Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos, a pantheon of horror and fantasy's finest authors pay tribute to the master of the macabre with a collection of original stories set in the fearsome Lovecraft tradition: <br />, The Call of Cthulhu by H.

In its natural form, an aranea resembles a big spider, with a humpbacked body a little bigger than a human torso. It has fanged mandibles like a normal spider. Two small arms, each about 2 feet long, lie below the mandibles. Each arm has a hand with four many-jointed fingers and a double-jointed thumb. Most aranea have none of the wicked ambitions attributed to them as a race, but those who have made their presence known are anything but peaceful and given their ability to blend in with the locals, they are a breed to be feared.

Quest of the Claw 1 Quest of the Claw 2 In 1983 I was a bright and wide-eyed individual and was new to the work force and the curious hobby of role-playing games. I became a founding member of a Brisbane-based club called Queensland Role Players (QRP) and, when the club committee discovered I could draw, I was asked to create a mascot for QRP and came u with a young apprentice wizard called QuRP. Many months after drawing QuRP I began to wonder what his back story might be if he was an RPG character (you could see I had no life) and this led to me writing “Quest of the Claw” a comic tale set in my fantasy world of ‘Eldoria”. QOTCt poked fun at Dungeons and Dragons and some of the antics of the players I was running games for at that time – my younger brother Stephen and good friend Steven Twine exist in the pages of the comic. QOTC was featured in a club newsletter and later published in the student guild newspaper of the Queensland University of Technolo

Viking Language 1: Learn Old Norse, Runes, and Icelandic Sagas (Viking Language Series)

Jesse L. Byock

Even the many academics who have done their best to learn Old Norse old-style, and then to teach it, will benefit from working through the course. As for students coming to the language without prior experience, they have it all: a very thorough grammar, but carefully spaced-out, explained without short cuts, and reinforced by exercises graded from absolute no-knowledge upward; well-selected and well-varied texts, with considerable use not only of the sagas but also of runestone-inscriptions, eddic poems and even notoriously difficult skaldic poems; and cultural background which takes in strange reports like that of the Arab traveller Ibn Fadlan (which gave rise to the movie The Thirteenth Warrior), maps, explanations and reconstructions...There is no-one better-qualified than Professor Byock to link up sagas with archaeology.

Literature & Fiction

Naming in Iskloft Names are an important part of getting the feel of any setting right, and Iskloft is no different. Wherever possible, I have used techniques to create names for characters, places and things that feel authentic. I don’t speak Icelandic, or Old Norse, and am not a scholar of those languages, so take what follows, as with all historical elements in this book, with a pinch of salt. Surnames are patronymic, where the father’s name is a possessive prefix, followed by ‘son’ or ‘dottir’, for example Bjornsson, or Bjornsdottir. Traditional Iskloft Naming Conventions The names I’ve made, and the name generator that follows, are lists of prefixes and suffixes that often show up in Norse names. Of course there are many, many more names than these, and all you need to do to discover them is read some of the recommended literature mentioned at the start of this book. These names are inspired by as many historical sources as I could manage to find, and those w

Unruly Places: Lost Spaces, Secret Cities, and Other Inscrutable Geographies

Alastair Bonnett

Bonnett divides places into helpful categories. Hidden Geographies includes tunnel labyrinths below old cities and oddities like an established community within a Philippine cemetery. We visit Dead Cities like the skyscrapered, yet bizarrely empty, attempts by China and North Korea to proclaim ideological success. Unused spaces enclosed by highways fall within No Mans Lands. Lost Spaces range from tiny islands that come and go, with shifting conditions, to Leningrad, Russia, which was renamed St. Petersburg. International airspace, a peninsula-consuming Greek monastery, and a Somalian pirate feral city fall under Spaces of Exception. A section on breakaway nations includes a chunk of India within an Indian enclave in Bangladesh. Floating Islands come made of pumice, trash, ice, and modern building materials. The strongest places concern human adaptation. These Ephemeral Places contain a parking lot where work-desperate airport employees, including many pilots, lay over in RVs. The erudite Bonnett explores the roots of place all the way to childhood hideaways, yet the book doesnt build. The many locations remain detached. --Dane Carr

a s o u r c e b o o k f o r - 1 - • Arnette Almanac • The place was called Paradise Found, and whatever else might be said of it, the inside was a damn sight better than the outside. Like so many other places on the cir- cuit, the location itself was nothing to write home about; an otherwise empty gravel-covered lot located about ten miles off the beaten path, which in this case meant Route 93 just north of Arnette. (A “beaten path” if ever there was one, to those who wore their wheels down traversing its length.) On such a site, it would be difficult to erect anything that didn’t disappoint, at least on first blush. During the day, the exterior of the building suggested a structure so ill-kept — so muted and with- drawn — that it must have been abandoned by its owners, left to the whim of time and of restless teen- agers and tramps.

In addition to devouring fiction of most genres, he has been a history buff from a young age, and a WWII afficinado by the age of 17. Dude-lit, action adventure and pulp fiction topped his reading list for many years. He entered the military upon graduation from high school and volunteered for an elite unit. Upon his return to civilian life years later, he earned a degree in the arts, but spent most of his college elective credits on military history courses. His passion for dude-lit led him to create the Two-Fisted Blogger web log, where he plans to help reawaken an interest in fiction for men.

Porphyry's Letter to His Wife: Concerning the Life of Philosophy and the Ascent to the Gods

Porphyry

"Porphyry, a scholar and philosopher of Semitic descent, lived during the second half of the third century C.E. Migrating first to Athens to study under the rhetorician Longinus, then to Rome to study with Plotinus, he became, after the latter's death, the leader of the school of Neoplatonism. His eclecticism and mysticism fashioned that philosophy into a weapon for the defense of Hellenistic culture against the onslaught of Christianity. Of his more than seventy-five works, this letter is one of a handful that survive. David Fideler, whose credentials are not mentioned, has ably set forth its place in Porphyry's ethics in an introduction that takes up more than half of this slight volume. He exaggerates, however, when he says "an unsuspecting reader ... might easily take the work to be an exposition of the highest Christian moral philosophy," and other commentators are not so certain that Porphyry did not intend his intellectual counterattack of the Christians as a justification for their persecution. The letter itself begins promisingly with a touching and witty attempt to console Marcella for his absence by likening it to the soul's need to absent itself from the body. As he elaborates on the purification of the soul, however, we lose the sense of a man corresponding with his wife, but he resumes this tone near the end of the manuscript. Not renowned for original thought, he nevertheless can offer something to chew on when he employs his usual epigrammatic style, e.g., "it is by their good hopes good men are superior to bad ones." When he is more discursive, the stiffness of this ninety-year-old translation becomes more evident than the need for this reprint ever does." --From <i><b>Independent Publisher</b></i>

The Future of Staff Groups

Joel P Henning

...a survival manual for all those who fall under the label of being an 'overhead cost.' This book defines in tough and detailed terms the path of accountability and service for people in a staff and expert role. It is emotionally honest and operationally practical. -- <i>Peter Block, author of <i> Stewardship and the Empowered Manager</i></i><br /><br />Compulsory reading for all who are engaged in the business of building competitive advantage, sustaining organizational vitality, and ensuring prosperity in this global arena. -- <i>Lee C. Smith, retired President, Levi-Strauss International</i><br /><br />The Future of Staff Groups vividly describes how traditional staff roles are changing, no longer focused on employee alignments, mandates, audits, and caretaking. Henning offers the reader a new and value-adding model for staff groups--one that focuses on issues of personal accountability, contribution to business and partnership. -- <i>Robert J. Hall, Publisher and Chairman, The Philadelphia Inquirer and The Philadelphia Daily News</i><br /><br />Today's business climate is brutal. Competition is fierce, Change is rapid and unrelenting. Staff organizations are under particular pressure. Our purpose and value to the organization is challenged daily. We question ourselves. What am I doing here? What is my value? How is that value to be realized? To this, Joel Henning speaks simply, courageously, and directly. -- <i>William B. Worthington, Information Technologies Consulting Services, Englehard Corporation</i>

The Creation of Narrative in Tabletop Role-Playing Games

Jennifer Grouling Cover

Despite the rise of computer gaming, millions of adults still play face to face role playing games, which rely in part on social interaction to create stories. This work explores tabletop role playing game (TRPG) as a genre separate from computer role playing games. The relationship of TRPGs to other games is examined, as well as the interaction among the tabletop module, computer game, and novel versions of Dungeons &amp; Dragons. Given particular attention are the narrative and linguistic structures of the gaming session, and the ways that players and gamemasters work together to construct narratives. The text also explores wider cultural influences that surround tabletop gamers.

1 y z z PROJECT PROJECT PRINCESS PRINCESS 2 When I began playing dungeons & dragons, I was attracted to the high fantasy. As a little girl, I was always roleplaying, constructing elaborate plots and worlds on the playground, discovering imaginary magic heirlooms in attics, and saving the day with the unexpected and overlooked. I was inspired by the princesses in fiction: Nasuada, who saved her people by selling lace, and Sailor Moon, whose innocent heart and friendships protected her from evil. Because of those women and their creators, I wanted to fight dragons and write stories. I’ve learned that what I really love about tabletop roleplaying games is the community. Creatorship, collaboration, and cooperation are core pillars of tabletop roleplaying, and that creative drive inspires me every day. I love that through stories we can fight tyranny with the swords and fireballs of our imaginations, raise thousands of dollars for charity, and, hopefully, foster an ever bett

The Re-Enchantment of the World: Secular Magic in a Rational Age

Joshua Landy

"[T]he writers offer provocative and often brilliant meditations on the possibilities of secular modernity." (Joanna Picciotto <i><i>Common Knowledge</i></i>)<br /><br />"<i>The Re-Enchantment of the World</i> ultimately becomes richer for its internal diversity. Instead of offering a single argument, it reveals some of the competing agenda and concerns that have clustered around a recent area of critical inquiry, suggesting why it has captured so many scholars' attentions and where it might lead in the future." (Sebastian Lecourt)<br /><br />"This interdisciplinary collection challenges the assumption that modernity's secular rationalism banished the sense of 'enchantment'wonder, mystery, sacredness, orderengendered by religion and myth in earlier times. The 13 contributors discuss attempts to fill the void left by 'the death of God.' These include responses to nature famously detailed by Henry David Thoreau, the less accessible philosophy of Martin Heidegger, and the interest that William James took in psychic phenomena . . . The imaginative reach of these authors is itself a source of wonder, as is their erudition, evidenced by the copious endnotes and 29-page works cited." (<i>CHOICE</i>)<br /><br />"<i>'The fate of our times is characterised by the rationalisation and intellectualisation and, above all, by the disenchantment of the world'</i> Or so Max Weber declared in 1917, Joshua Landy and Michael Saler remind us, in introducing this engaging 'smorgasbord' of a book, which ranges freely from environmentalism and architecture on one hand to Gnosticism and poetry on the other." (<i>Journal of the Philosophical Society of England</i>)<br /><br />"This is one of those rare books that creates a paradigm shift in a topic of real importance. These brilliant cross-disciplinary essays present a fresh understanding of secular modernity: the old Weberian disenchantment paradigm lies in tatters and we realize that intellectual and cultural modernisation is soaked in magic and mystery too." (Simon During <i>Johns Hopkins University</i>)<br /><br />"[I] would assure any prospective readers interested in the subject that the collection is rich, varied, and overall an excellent and helpful text that I would say 'prepares the soil' for many fruitful discussions on reason, philosophy, art, ecology, poetry, music, and magic." (Peter Duchemin <i><i>Analecta Hermeneutica</i></i>)<br /><br />"Joshua Landy and Michael Saler have edited a book that confirms what many modernist scholars have long suspected: existing theories of modern re-enchantment need updating. Their careful and detailed critique of earlier theories of modern re-enchantment is compelling . . . This collection makes clear that any understanding of modern re-enchantment is incomplete without a consideration of its many and varied permutations." (Katherine Elkins)

68 The border between society and the division of class is no more apparent then with the walls separating the magic and enchantment, of Echa, and the technology of Techa. The few human souls to survive the punishment of nature banded together. Those with simple methods forced to embrace magic quickly integrated into the new world forming around them. Others refused to accept the dictations of a chaotic world. Some survived possessing knowledge granting them stature in some communities. These communities grew fast; rich in lost wisdom of old man. They renounced the new ways of magic and began to rebuild. Soon, word spread and those possessing such treasures sought out their kin, banding together to fight back the enchanted light. Some fell under the arm of raiders. Some grew and eventually reached a status enabling them to fight off such miscreants. The towns grew to cities, then to fortresses to defend themselves.

Druid Twilight: The Loom of Destiny: Epic Edition

Gerry C Starnes

As a fictional story set in a pivotal historic time, <b><i>Druid Twilight: The Loom of Destiny</i></b> is an epic journey to first century Roman Britain. The Roman invaders are set to destroy the whole Druidic culture because they recognize it as a hindrance to their exertion of power over the British territories. The two Orders--the Druid Order and the Semnotheoi Order--have to decide how to pass on their legacy, knowing that the world as they have known it has come to an end.<br /> <br /> Within this military and political struggle lies the personal stories of Caedwyn and Brianna, their companions, and the Elders who struggle with their responsibilities of the present and for the future.<br /> <br /> <i>Druid Twilight</i> is an allegorical tale of our times: an age of transition in which ancient powers conflict with the emergence of a new way, a new system of beliefs that may either engulf the archaic ways or force their unexpected evolution. Nature, the elements, and time itself is at play in this intense and engaging shamanic narrative.<br /> <br /> <i>Druid Twilight: The Loom of Destiny (Epic Version)</i> is an omnibus publication that includes both original books, plus the author's notes regarding story locations and more.<br /> <br /> A love story at heart, Druid Twilight is a tale of the clash of enormous powers, of betrayal, retribution, and rebirth.

One God: The Will to Power

Kata Mlek

"Kata writes with a fine sting, creating characters that are credible ... Her language is terse yet wholly accessible ... " -- Grady Harp

[]

©1983, M.A.R. Barker The Temple of Karakán By M.A.R. BARKER Of the Tlomítlanyal, the five Gods of Stability, Lord Karakán appears to be something of a paradox: He is the “Lord of War, the Master of Heroes, and the Ultimate Warrior on the Final Day.” As the cult-deity of soldiers, His doctrines stress the power of the Imperial state, expansion through war, personal bravery, and the feats of arms. These tenets would seem to be closer to “Change” than to “Stability.” Yet the Engsvanyáli theologians and their modern counterparts do not perceive Him as such. Lord Karákan represents the physical force to maintain Stability, the development of organizations that guard and protect society and its governing forces (the state). He is the “muscle” behind Lord Hnálla’s quest for Supernal Light, Lady Avánthe’s cyclical rounds of crops, seasons, fertility, and the family life, Lord Thúmis’ quest for wisdom, and Lord Belkhánu’s researches into the worlds of spirits and the Planes Beyond.

The Guild of Xenolinguists

Sheila Finch

Nebula-winner Finch's many fans as well as SF readers who have yet to encounter her work will welcome this collection of 10 short stories and a novella that showcase her unique contribution to the genre. Making excellent use of her graduate work in linguistics, Finch creates the Guild of Xenolinguists (later called lingsters), a formal organization devoted to translating the languages of other worlds. Much as Asimov did with the Three Laws of Robotics, Finch creatively examines the conflicts stemming from adherence to the guild's strict rules. The stories span a wide range, from First Was the Word, a brief tale setting the stage for the development of the guild, to the moving A World Waiting and A Flight of Words, which present their protagonists with morally difficult situationstortured prisoners, conflicting religious beliefs, abortionthat hold significant contemporary resonance. A thoughtful foreword by New Wave luminary Ian Watson and an engaging afterword by Finch (<i>Birds</i>) discuss the linguistic theories that underlie the fiction. <i>(Sept.)</i> <br />Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Todd C Henry

Todd founded performance nutrition company, Emergent Nutrition. He has been weight training for over 20 years, and powerlifting at an elite level since 2011. During this time, hes learned what works for building muscle size and strength, what doesnt, and how to achieve the best results over time, while minimizing the risk of serious injury. The Powerbuilding Blueprint reflects the culmination of this knowledge, incorporates influences and lessons from world-class strength athletes, and programs it simply and effectively for all levels of lifters. Using this program, Todd gained nearly 100 pounds on his squat (to the mid-700s), and 20 pounds of muscle, in just 12 months (without PEDs, and after almost 2 decades of training!). Amazingly, he learned that such results, while maybe not typical, are nevertheless repeatable, and that his training methodology can work for everyone.

Le Avventure DI Cipollino (Italian Edition)

Gianni Rodari

Un monello che fa piangere chi gli strappa i capelli e un principe acido, cattivo e poco furbo sono i due antagonisti di questo memorabile romanzo nato nei primi anni '50. La posta in gioco dello scontro fra Cipollino e Limone e' niente meno che la liberta' di un popolo intero, composto di pomodori, ciliegie, fagiolini e vecchie talpe. La trama e' lineare: i buoni, vessati dal tiranno e oppressi da regole insensate, guidati dal giovane Cipollino riusciranno a sconfiggere i cattivi a colpi di scherzi, beffe e piani geniali, senza mai ricorrere alla violenza. Ma l'intento di Gianni Rodari non e' mettere in scena una lotta tra il male e il bene: e' quello di dimostrare che una societa' giusta e' possibile, auspicabile e anche piu' divertente per tutti. Eta' di lettura: da 6 anni.

Snap To Grid: Stones of Bothynus Book 1

D.K. Reed

''In her debut novel, Reed weaves together physics, angels, demons, and teenage romance with skill and verve. Her portrait of Red and her family shows an affectionate appreciation for the quirky. A promising debut about a missing uncle and ancient stones that delivers appealing characters and an intriguing combination of science and mysticism. The story moves well, with thrills, suspense, and passion, and concludes satisfyingly, but with enough issues left unexplored to whet appetites for further adventures. D.K. Reed's debut novel is a must-read for all ages.'' --<i>Kirkus Review</i><br /><br />''...hailed as having 'appealing characters and an intriguing combination of science and mysticism.''' --<i>Columbia Review</i>

The Book of Vice: Very Naughty Things (and How to Do Them)

Peter Sagal

NPR host Sagal (<I>Wait, Wait... Don't Tell Me</I>) offers a hilarious, harmlessly prurient look at the banality of regular people's strange and wicked pleasures. In the wake of the late-1990s obsession with other people's fun, notes Sagal, the hoi polloi have pursued their own indulgences, such as sex joints, swinging couples' clubs, gambling and pornography. He describes the three necessary elements of vice that distinguish it from sin and give it that irresistible frisson: social disapprobation, actual pleasure and shame. A buttoned-up journalist and family man, Sagal visits the respective dens of inequity, interviewing the principals in the name of research while preserving his academic irony, e.g., during the shooting of a hardcore porn sequence for Spice TV, he remarks of the actors: I began to appreciate how very well Evan and Kelly did their work. Indeed, the dedicated hedonists, such as the regular joe habitu&eacute;s of San Francisco's Power Exchange or the normal-seeming couples who frequent the Swinger's Shack, face the same problems of meeting supplies, logistics, expense versus income, and time management as does any warehouse foreman. Sagal is a terrific, lively writer, and while some of his segments are repetitive and stretched, he is admirable in humanizing the participants. <I>(Oct.)</I> <BR>Copyright &copy; Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Tropic of Cancer (Eastern Armenian Edition)

Henry Miller

Famous novel by Henry Miller translated into Eastern Armenian. Now hailed as a cornerstone of modern literature, Tropic of Cancer, this autobiographical fiction about Henry Miller's life and bawdy adventures as an expatriate American writer in Paris, was deemed obscene and banned from publication in his country for 30 years. Only a historic court ruling that changed American censorship standards, ushering in a new era of freedom in literature, permitted the publication of this unforgettable novel of self-confession, maybe the most honest book ever written. Miller's masterpiece, shattering every taboo, is now considered not only an act that would forever change the face of American literature but also his significant contribution to the cause of free speech.

. SECTION ONE: PLAYING THE GAME The following section summarizes the mechanics of the Halo Universe roleplaying game. This section also covers player abilities and interaction with the environment and others. The first thing to know is the game’s use of dice. USING GAME DICE Halo Universe uses a newer variant of the Basic Roleplaying 1D100 dice system. When using this system, the users need at least two ten-sided dice. These dice can be acquired through online stores, game and hobby shops, and even through bookstores. The GM and each player will need a pair of D10s. There are Percentile dice that are a pair of D10s, one showing the “ones” and the other being the “tens.” Halo Universe uses two different types of dice rolls, the “D10” and the Percentile roll. It is important to note that when the rules say roll 2D10, this is not the same as rolling a percentage roll. When rolling 1D10, 2D10, and so on, you simply add the results of each die.

Tekeli-li! – 1 Tekeli-li! “The universe is not only queerer than we imagined, it is queerer than we can imagine.” —J. B. S. Haldane OVERVIEW Tekeli-li! contains the following sections: • “What is Tekeli-li!?” on page 2 • “Rules Additions to Fuzion” on page 3 • “Creating the World of Tekeli-li!” on page 11 • “Using Other RPG Resources” on page 14 • “Designer Notes” on page 15 What is Tekeli-li!? Tekeli-li! – 2 A. What is Tekeli-li!? This is a supplement for using Fuzion™ to run Lovecraftian horror, such as one gets with Call of Cthulhu®, in either its Chaosium or D20 incarnation. Horror games, in other words, but a particular kind of horror: something slow, insidious, and wrong. It is not mad slashers chasing nubile teenagers; it is encounters with things that drive humans mad, and risking insanity to banish those things. In H.P. Lovecraft’s fiction, Earth is an exception. The laws here are not the same as the laws Out There, and we, who have evolved in this benign environment, c

Tal'aura, one of the few remaining members of the Romulan Senate and a former ally of Shinzon, declares herself the new Praetor, supported by Fleet Commander Tomalak as the new leader of the Imperial Defense Force. However, Tal'aura's leadership is opposed by Commander Donatra, who with the support of Commander Suran and former Admiral Braeg retains control of the majority of the Fifth and Third fleets. Any hope of a reconciliation between the two sides ends after the execution of Braeg, and Donatra vows never to accept Tal'aura's rule. Donatra's rebellion is not Tal'aura's only concern. The Remans, led by General Xiomek of the Reman Kepeszuk Battalion, demand control of either a continent on Romulus or a planet with sufficient natural resources to maintain self-sufficient settlements as reparati

Polychrome: A Romantic Fantasy

Ryk E. Spoor

Ryk E. Spoor was born in Omaha, Nebraska, and has since lived in South Dakota, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and New York. A fan of Oz from the time he was 6, Ryk collected all of the Baum Oz books and read them repeatedly, never forgetting them even when he graduated to the epic fantasy of Tolkien, the space opera of Doc Smith, the harder SF of Heinlein, Asimov, and Clement, and later becoming a computer geek, a gamer, and an anime fan. Along this fannish journey, Ryk also accumulated a few degrees (in Mathematics and Science, Psychology, and Information Science) and worked in various locations. He also met, dated, and married his wife Kathleen Moffre-Spoor, and they now have four children all of whom have been introduced to Oz, among other stories of his youth. In 2000, Ryk cleverly attracted the attention of Baen Books by insulting the work of one of its editors, Eric Flint, online; this eventually led to the publication of his first book, Digital Knight, in 2003. With the publication of Polychrome Ryk E. Spoor enters the realm of self-publication; Polychrome is his eleventh book overall. He now lives in Troy, NY, with his family, one poodle, and a flock of chickens.
