BARBARIAN PATH: PATH OF THE SAVAGE A squadron of well armoured soldiers with spears all trained on a lone human figure. The figure squats down and slices his hand on a stone and sniffs his own blood. The figure rises as the smell of iorn fills his nostrils, his eyes flash yellow. Hands become claws as the nails elongate. He smiles revieling a row of sharp teeth. With the speed of a wild animal he dashs into a nearby bush. A beastly howl seems to surround the squadron. Soon stifled screams are released and stifled as the squadron grows fewer and fewer leaving behind only scraps of armour, chuncks of flesh, and pools of blood. Primal Rage Beginning at 3rd level, in addition to your normal rage, you take on the aspect of the wilds themselves. Your movement takes on an additional 10 feet and you gain the two unarmed attacks: Attacks Claw +4 to hit (1d8 + 2) Piercing Damage Bite +4 to hit (2d4 + 2) Slashing Damage Roar of the Wilds Beginning at 6th level, you tap into your inner beast relea

S elvos castle is the seat of the Earl of Selvos in northwest Kanday. Seized in 695 from Rethem during Ezar’s War, it is a rich fishing port and one of the few safe harbors along the rugged western coast of Hârn. Although officially at peace with Rethem for over twenty years, raiding and skirmishing continues along the nearby frontier. Agents of Rethem, and political intrigue between hawks and doves of Kanday, make this a dangerous place for the unwary. HISTORY The Dureve Valley, bounded by the Peris Moor to the west and Tesien Moor to the east, is drained by the Eisma and Rosas Rivers. The valley is characterized by dozens of small streams, copses, and meadows, but the heavy clay soil is damp and poorly suited for agriculture. Jarin immigrants settled the upper valley around 1000 BT. Although not a seafaring people, poor crop yields and the rich fishing grounds of Deversh Bay encouraged some Jarin to settle at the mouth of the swampy Eisma River. For over a thousand years the Jarin li

The Crown's Fate (Crown's Game)

Evelyn Skye

Gr 8 UpThough the Crown's Game may have ended in Book 1, there is still much in store for Vika, Nikolai, and Pasha. This title opens with Vika mid-evanescence, as she is performing yet another mundane task for the tsardom since winning the Crown's Game and the role of Russian Imperial Enchantress. Vika wants nothing more than to be reunited with Nikolai, her adversary-turned-friend, but since he sacrificed himself so she could live (and win the game), Nikolai has been trapped in a dream version of the Kazakh steppe. Motivated by revenge, Nikolai manages to escape his prison and return to Saint Petersburg. His plan? Kill Tsesarevich Pasha and take the throne. Vika tries to reconcile the demands of the state (Pasha) with the deeper ancient connection (the magical Bolshebnoie Duplo) binding her to outlaw Nikolai. With so much of Vika's energy devoted to empathizing with and reacting to the actions of Pasha and Nikolai, her boldness, so central to the first installment, is sadly missing. There are a number of underdeveloped side plots: Baba Yaga's chicken-legged house makes an appearance, and the Decembrist revolt plays a role in reuniting the trio, but their rejoicing at the triumph of the monarchy hits a sour note in hindsight. A tavern scene in which gamblers are briefly overheard gloating about sexual assault feels out of place for the series. VERDICT An uneven follow-up; consider only for fans of the first installment.Della Farrell, School Library Journal

(<i>David Appelbaum, editor, Parabola</i>)<br /><br />"Not only the most recent book to discuss this intriguing subject, but among its most clear and penetrating examinations." (<i>Frank Joseph, Fate, December 2003, Vol.56 No.12 Issue644</i>)<br /><br />"This book invites readers to explore the ultimate patterns of the universe." (<i>Nexus, May/June 2004</i>)

The priests have urged the PCs to find it, and return it. Room 1. Entrance This room was trapped about 50 years ago with a persistent programmed illusion. The illusion is of a wraith, who rises out of some rubble and attacks anyone in the room. Those that fail a save vs. spells, will believe the wraith is real and will suffer the same damage as if it really attacked them. Those who make their save will not take non-lethal damage from it, but cannot convince those who failed that it is not real. Levels and Hit Points lost to the illusion are restored within 12 hours. Beneath the rubble the image rises from is a skeleton of a dead temple priestess. She was wearing bronze breast plate (AC 4, 400gp value) and was holding a mace+1.

How To Make Luck: Seven Secrets Lucky People Use To Succeed

Marc Myers

If you want to be lucky, throw away that lottery ticket. <i>How to Make Luck</i> by Marc Myers lets you in on seven secrets of successful and lucky people, from former <i>Washington Post</i> editor Ben Bradlee and the <i>Today Show</i>'s Matt Lauer to money manager James O'Shaughnessy and poker champion Barbara Enright. Myers believes that people make their own luck. "The people we think of as lucky behave in ways that are so special and seductive that nearly everyone they meet feels compelled to offer them great opportunities. And it is this wealth of opportunities that allows them to continuously improve their good luck," he writes. Luck, advises Myers, means mastering one or two of these lucky behaviors: Make life look easy, but don't rub it in; make yourself appealing; be as curious as a child; improve the lives of other people; let power brokers own a piece of you; don't burn your bridges. The book includes chapters on each of these secrets as well as interviews with successful people and tips for limiting bad luck. Myers is a fortunate person himself, having risen quickly at the <i>New York Times</i>, <i>Adweek</i> and elsewhere. He is now editor of two national consumer newsletters, <i>Bottom Line/Personal</i> and <i>Moneysworth</i>. The book could be a lucky charm for anyone looking to get ahead, in business and in life. <i>--Dan Ring</i>

1 Feeling Lucky, Punk? Feeling Lucky, Punk? Feeling Lucky, Punk? Feeling Lucky, Punk? After 10 (?!?!) years of playing this game I've noticed that many a player will never use those floating bonus points provided by their luck stat they have during game play... At least, not until they get shot. Some players will then use them all on their Death Save rolls, while others will allow their characters with Trauma Team accounts to die and then spend all their luck on the resurrection roll. (Except for the character that Trauma Team never showed up for...) These rules provide for an excellent way to increase a player's willingness to use their luck points, as well as forcing them not to use all of them on death saves. This system introduces a deck of pre-prepared Luck Cards or a Luck Table. Each player draws one card at the beginning of a game session for every luck point their character has (or rolls once on the table if you are not using the cards). These cards can only

Advertisements Use the vintage advertisements and announcements to inspire new fiction for your game. For instance, a grocery store ad might inspire fiction involving a food shortage or excess, a black market deal, a letter from home, or more. Likewise, a holiday announcement could become a camp event. Phases and Events Because this is a CO’s calendar, it includes notes on phases and events. Only some of the most significant items important to I Corps and those who serve within it (like the 8099th MASH) are listed here. For a more detailed look at the Korean War and its events, see the References section of the MASHED RPG.

Chapter Approved – Codex: Armageddon Q&A (v2.0) Speed Freaks Q. Must Deth Kopta (or even ordinary bikers) use their psycho blasta attack on the first close combat round? Do they have to use it even when going up against vehicles? A. In answer to your question, the way I read it is that the warbikes' psycho blasta attack is a very extreme form of special close combat attack like a powerfist. Therefore, like a power fist, it can be eschewed if desired. Q. Can Speed Freaks use the normal Ork vehicle upgrades from the Codex Orks or are they limited to the ones in Codex: Armageddon? A. They can use both lists. Q. If you take a Battlewagon for your Speed Freaks Warboss, does this count as your one and only Battlewagon? A. Now it’s a transport option so it doesn't count against the limit. Q. So how many Battlewagons can they take? A. Six in total, one heavy support and up to five as transports. Q. Can a Warboss and his Mob ride in a looted vehicle instead of taking a Wartrukk or Battlewagon?

The Principality Of Innspa and The Adri−Marchland In the north of the former Great Kingdom, a nomination now claimed by Overking Xavener's United Kingdom of Ahlissa, lies the Principality of Innspa, formerly, prior to the devastating Greyhawk Wars, part of the Prelacy of Almor and for long an independent part of the Flanaess. Only recently has Princess Karasin of House Garasteth elected to give in to Xavener's advances and become a part of Ahlissa... not totally of her free will, some say. Facts about Innspa Innspa (pop. 12,200) is a unique city in Aerdy. It is located just within the edge of the westernmost border of the Adri, about five miles away from the fringes of the Forest. It has a walled core ("Old Town"), but the rest of the settlement, down the Harp River, is unwalled, with the outer dwellings protected only by a small, semicircular ditch. Most houses in Old Town are built of stone, and many reveal the handiwork of dwarven or gnomish stonemaso

The Engines of Our Ingenuity: An Engineer Looks at Technology and Culture

John H. Lienhard IV

Technology is not just a byword to refer to the sum of designs and applications that enable us to do things like open cans--or make cans in the first place. It is, writes engineer John Lienhard in this imaginative survey, an instrument by which we become more human, a means of interacting with and learning from the world. Technology mirrors humans, and humans mirror technology, and the question that remains is "whether we are to be lifted up or dragged down in the process."

Engineering & Transportation

- 00 - Technology Tools are used to adapt, change, or control an environment. Tool-using cultures are groups of beings (not necessarily sophonts) with the ability to find or make tools. But, using tools is not enough: Technology is the ability to use tools to make other tools. When societies make the leap to using tools to make tools, they become technological. Technology builds on the successes of earlier tool-making experiences, and progresses to ever higher levels. Many beings (not necessarily sophonts) make and use tools. Technological cultures make the leap to intelligence when they discover how to use tools to make other, more sophisticated, tools. UNDERSTANDING TECHNOLOGY Technology’s value is three-fold: A person using technology can do more (often much more) than a similar person not using technology. Technology is a labor multiplier. A person using technology can achieve higher quality (often much higher) than a similar person not using

The Adventurers Guild

Zack Loran Clark

Gr 58Ever since the Day of Dangers, when the land of Ferryn was attacked by monsters, the city of Freestone has been protected by wards of the Adventurers Guild. Zed and his friend Brock are anxious for the Guildculling, when those who have come of age will be assigned to one of the Guilds. Zed, who is an elf-blooded boy, hopes to be chosen as a Mage. Brock, whose parents are members of the Merchants Guild, expects to become a Merchant as well. Neither of them wants to be a Knight or a Healerand certainly not an Adventurer, the most dangerous job of all. But both find themselves chosen by the Adventurers Guild; Zed snatched from the Mages, and Brock pressed into spying for the Merchants. Along with Jett and Liza, their fellow apprentices, they face a daunting initiation: they must survive the night outside the protected city walls. The initiation turns dangerous when monsters attack and Jett is paralyzed, while Zed discovers he possesses an innate ability to sense and use magicand forbidden magic, at that. As the Adventurers' wards begin to fail, the apprentices must uncover the traitor and save their city. This first installment in a new series offers a solidly constructed world, endearing characters, and lots of fantasy-based adventure with fast-paced action. VERDICT Hand this to fans of Angie Sage's "Septimus Heap" and Brandon Mull's "Fablehaven" series; the ending will leave readers anxious for the sequel.Laurie Slagenwhite Walters, Brighton District Library, Brighton, MI

P.J. Night

A lifelong night owl, P.J. Night often works furiously into the wee hours of the morning, writing down spooky tales and dreaming up new stories of the supernatural and otherworldly. Although P.J.&rsquo;s whereabouts are unknown at this time, we suspect the author lives in a drafty, old mansion where the floorboards creak when no one is there and the flickering candlelight creates shadows that creep along the walls. We truly wish we could tell you more, but we&rsquo;ve been sworn to keep P.J.&rsquo;s identity a secret&hellip;and it&rsquo;s a secret we will take to our graves!

"Archambeau certainly succeeded in her quest for diversity; <i<pride &="" joy<="" i=""> is <br /><br />remarkable for the scope of individuals it contains. There's a blind opera singer, a trans male choreographer, a Ugandan activist and a New Zealand athlete and parliamentarian. There's also a genderqueer scholar, lesbian tech stars, an immigrant baker and a gay sports executive. The uniting factor besides their sexuality is that all of the people are successful in their chosen field." - The Windy City Times<br /><br /><br /><br />Since his inauguration, Donald Trump has surrounded himself with shady figures fixated on pushing religious freedom as a means of suppressing LGBT rightsComing against this backdrop, Pride and Joy is a refreshing reprieve.

Holidays and Holy Nights: Celebrating Twelve Seasonal Festivals of the Christian Year

Christopher Hill

Three of the 12 chapters of this illustrated guide deal with Advent, Christmas and Epiphany, while the others tackle different days of the Christian year, including Easter and Pentecost. Especially interesting are the chapters on various lesser-known holy days like Michaelmas, All Saints' Day, Candlemas, the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene and the Feast of the Transfiguration. Hill has his reasons for wanting to resurrect the rhythms of the liturgical calendar: "We are all Bob Cratchits these days, chained in our money-changing cubbyholes for hours that even Ebenezer Scrooge would hesitate to demand." This book is a call for experiencing sacred time, and recovering the drama of incarnation, liberation and rebirth. <br />Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Articles may be copied or distributed freely for personal non-profit use, provided that the author is properly credited. Here is a list of holidays celebrated in mediaeval times. Most of these are from the Western Rite (a.k.a. the Roman Catholic Church). In addition to the Catholic ceremonies listed here, there would be a number of festivals celebrating the feast days of locally popular saints, as well as fairs, which would have been held in various locations throughout the year, particularly in summer. Vigils were held on the eves of the feasts of the Apostles except for Philip, James, and John I have also included some of the more popular Ancient Roman festivals, which may be of interest to magi. For example: a magus conducting a ritual spell designed to raise the shade of a dead Roman might only have luck during the Lemuria, the festivals in May when the Roma

The Cyborg Handbook

Donna J. Haraway

One of society's oldest dreams has been to create a living machine. To most of us, cyborgs are Terminator or Robocop types who combine artificial robotic strength and firepower with human intelligence/cunning. Yet Gray, a 1994-95 NASA Fellow in Aerospace History, has collected writings that explore real cyborgs (or cybernetic organisms) as any entities that mix the mechanical with the organic. Thus, humans with prostheses or implanted pacemakers qualify as cyborgs. This fascinating assemblage of essays, short stories, and research findings covers the role of this incredible modern technology through its varied uses in medicine, space research, and military applications. Articles are written by experts in the field of cybernetics, including Donna Haraway. This unique work combines scientific fact and science fiction. The bibliography and filmography are invaluable additions. For large public and academic libraries.?Joe Accardi, Northeastern Illinois Univ. Lib., Chicago<br />Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Better killing through cyber- netics. That’s what this PDF is all about. The standard rules provide you with a single way to outfit your cyborg warrior (see Ronin Arts’ Future: Heroes – Cyborgs): pick a weapon and put it on an internal or external mount.

Show no mercy even if he begs it, for his soul is tainted and given the opportunity he will betray your trust. Those of you gathered before me have been chosen to reside within the mighty machines of the Adeptus Titanicus. Let their will guide you. Become one with them.

Remember as you enter battle, you are but a part of the whole. You are but one amongst millions. Remember that your weapons are more than metal; the flame of spiritual fire burns strong in your souls and adds power to your cause. Smite those that disbelieve, for they have turned from the light and fallen. Know that the prayers of delivery will protect you from danger, and that you have nothing to fear except misplaced mercy.

DK

Gr 47This volume is a playful compendium of facts, trivia, and history, just perfect for browsing. It covers everything from national flags and animal skeletons to gourmet cheese, from the Renaissance to fashion through the decades to just about everything else in between. There's no in-depth discussion in this book, which is touted as "an encyclopedia on every page," but it is copiously and colorfully illustrated, making it an attractive selection for fans of the DK single topic books. The 360 pages make for one heavy bookand its size may deter some younger readers and browsers. Like other DK offerings, it's thoughtfully laid out, with clean page layouts and excellent photos and indexing. But those looking for more information on individual topics won't find it here; rather, it's an ideal book for those looking to kill time in study hall or find a fresh topic for a term paper. VERDICT A fun read that aligns with Common Core, this title is a suitable purchase for larger collections and browsing tables.Sharon Verbeten, Brown County Library, Green Bay, WI

Few elements of fantasy roleplaying are as rife with possibility and potential as are artifacts, those ancient and unpredictable items of potent magics. Travel in quest of mystic wonders, stand as civilizations only defense against villains equipped with horrific powers, or challenge the gods themselves. Within these pages lie sufficient ideas to inspire dozens upon dozens of quests, adventures and even entire campaigns.<br /><br />Tome of Artifacts includes the following:<br /><b></b> Each and every artifact within contains not only a detailed description of its powers, but also a rich and inspiring mythology, adventure seeds, and the various consequences and downsides of use that make artifacts such a mixed blessing. <br /><b></b> Provides new spells, new monsters, new feats. <br /><b></b> A tool to aid gamemasters in creating their own artifacts <br /><b></b> A random system capable of generating literally millions of unique artifacts!

1 toon 3: A step by step drawing guide for creating innovative cartoon characters

Mr. Rene D Erazo

Rene Erazo was born in Los Angeles, Ca. on the day of June 13, 1979. After college completion, he continued on an exciting roller coaster ride of learning new things and innovating ideas by utilizing his skills as well as his animation expertise. Although his education prepared him to become a cartoon animator, he has broadened his capabilities by sharing his talent with a wide range of design industries. "Design can be expressed in many different ways. An artist can make a design that fits in any form of artwork as long as its embellished to fit into a theme, style or category which will help portray the main idea or provide a clear visualization to the viewer." -Rene ErazoThis drawing book is his first written and illustrated book published in the year 2011. This book has been made possible with all the guidance and support given by his family, friends and people that have been inspired by Rene's self determination. As a special thanks, he shares the following words of hope with his readers."My mission is to embrace the inner love that I have for cartoon characters by creating over 45 new innovative characters that I can share with today's generation of aspiring artists. One of my strongest beliefs is that growth is possible only if knowledge is passed from one individual to another, therefore; my goal is to produce a book showing all the steps that I know which are important in the development of new characters. My book has been designed to guide new talent through all the vital steps of character art. I hope my book helps reach into the minds of talented and striving artists in ways that will expand their cartooning and visualization skills, as well as their observation and practical skills. This book will also allow me as a toon animator, to share my professional art experience with those that desire be a great artist, too." -Rene Erazo Although drawing cartoon characters is his favorite past time, this talented artist creates many other visual types of concepts. Some of his other professional skills include: toy design, graphic illustration, floral, product development, and new inventions through layout of 3-Dimensional presentations. When not behind the drawing table, he spends his spare time collecting Disney collectibles and developing new displays of hand crafted art work or dioramas."I love Disney and my world literally revolves around Walt Disney and his inspiring art and characters, it's all so intriguing. , Thank you, Walt." -Rene Erazo

1 T he bent, wizened figure flipped back the infant’s leather blanket, and exposed the pale flesh to the cold air of his cave. The child gasped once at the shock of the chill, but did not cry out. It did squirm, more actively than most babes so young, and though it could not roll far enough to grasp the side of its cradle, it did not stop trying. Eadbeor peered into the child’s pale blue eyes. As spirit- talker of the Iron Claws, it was his duty to find a proper name for that energetic bundle. Rarely, spirits DID come and tell him a destined name, or suggest a title that would be pleasing to the gods. But that hadn’t happened in years. Most of the name he gave were taken from the old Sagas, or from Eadbeor’s memory of folk three and four generations back. He glanced at the child’s parents hovering at the entrance to his cavern shrine.

Survivors: Extraordinary Tales from the Wild and Beyond

David Long

Throughout history, men, women, and children have battled the elements and lived to share their stories. Among the nearly two dozen subjects Long includes in this collection are 17-year-old Juliane Koepcke, who survived a plane crash in the Peruvian rainforest; Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton; and Aron Ralston, a hiker forced to amputate his own arm, an incident that inspired the 2010 film 127 Hours. Hyndmans grainy artwork depicts the survivors at the peak moments of danger19th-century trapper Hugh Glass lunges at an attacking grizzly bear with his knife, surgeon Leonid Rogozov peers down at his abdomen, giving himself a necessary appendectomy at a polar research station. While offering excitement and peril, Longs riveting narratives also provide insight into how these individuals used their skills, knowledge, and fortitude to survive. Ages 911. <b><i>-- Publishers Weekly</b></i><br /><br />"Gr 5 Up - Long compiles 23 harrowing true stories of men and women who survived everything from a plane crash to quicksand. The short vignettes span the 19th and 21st centuries, and some narratives are better known than others. Some tales convey hope, such as Anna Bagenholm's account of surviving hypothermia after falling into freezing water - an experience that led to discoveries about the human body and extreme cold. Themes of perseverance, inspiration, and interconnectedness ground the selections in reality and remind readers that those who survived often did so because others came to their aid. Some stories contain graphic scenes and death. Color illustrations accompany each selection and deftly capture the action. Hyndman portrays the individuals with few distinguishing features, allowing readers to imagine themselves in the survivors' tales. The absence of a table of contents and back matter makes this title better suited for pleasure reading than reports. VERDICT <b>Thrilling accounts of peril that are sure to draw in casual readers."</b><BR> <i><b> -- School Library Journal</i></b><br /><br />Quick! What do Juliane Koepcke, Poon Lim, and Mauro Prosperi have in common? Give up? Like the other 20 people profiled here, they are survivors of extraordinarily dangerous experiences. Koepcke survived a fall of more than two miles from a disintegrating airplane; Lim survived for 133 days on a raft in the Pacific Ocean; and Prosperi survived being lost in the Sahara Desert. Many of the survivors featured in Longs book are not well-known, but a few are: explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton; Aron Ralston, who famously cut off his own arm to release himself from a fallen boulder; and nineteenth-century trapper Hugh Glass, whose ordeal became the basis for the book and movie The Revenant. Each of the 23 accounts seems more jaw-dropping than the one before, and all are testaments to the human spirit. The handsome, oversize volume is enhanced by Hyndmans single- and double-page illustrations. While appealing to all readers, this will have special interest for reluctant ones." - Michael Cart, <i>Booklist</i>

Starship: Pirate (Starship, Book 2)

Mike Resnick

One of the characters in this sequel to <i>Starship: Mutiny</i> (2005) asks, "Whatever happened to heroes who didn't think everything through, but just walked in with weapons blazing?" The answer is "They're buried in graveyards all across the galaxy." This sums up nicely Hugo-winner Resnick's approach to military SF, which isn't so much about fighting and hardware as it is about strategy and leadership. Having busted their commander, Wilson Cole, out of the brig for disobeying orders that would have cost millions of lives, the crew of the starship <i>Theodore Roosevelt</i> find themselves on the run from their own fleet. The plan? Hoist the Jolly Roger! Since Captain Cole is a moral man, he must figure out a way to practice piracy without actually harming anyoneat least, anyone who doesn't have it coming. As he and the <i>Teddy R.</i> stumble their way through <i>Piracy for Dummies</i>, they make new enemies and find new allies that make the difference between real pirates and military professionals all the more apparent. Readers craving intelligent, character-driven SF need look no further. <i>(Dec.)</i> <br />Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

CLASSES OF STARSHIP DESTRUCTION Requires the use of the d20 Modern™ Roleplaying Game, published by Wizards of the Coast, Inc. By the time technology exists to allow a space- ship to travel vast distances on its own power, it is not just another vehicle or piece of technology. At this point it is a true starship, a location worthy of its own considerations, separate from those of science fiction concepts in general. A starship can be a base of operations, a weapon of war, or a backdrop for short-term adventures. Most importantly, a starship is an environment that requires specific kinds of characters to crew it, both as strong-jawed heroes and minor GM characters. Being part of a starship crew isn’t the same as being a generic space traveler. It requires the ability to be flexible, work well as part of a team, manage limited resources and remain calm in the face of unexpected threats. While it is certainly possible for characters to earn spots on a star- ship crew with m

I am a God! And like all gods I will have my homage or they will be crushed beneath my heel!” A slighted madman holds Britain to ransom from his secret liar.

Rebel Queen (Dragonkin Chronicles) (Volume 1)

David Temrick

I've been writing for most of my life, though began putting together full-length novels in 2008. After I collected a fair amount of rejections from both agents and publishers, I decided to take the plunge and self-publish my novels. After selling 2,000 copies, I published the second one knowing that no one would want to publish a sequel. Despite having no flair for marketing, the first two novels sold surprisingly well while I was working on my third. I still wanted to have a professional looking product though, so I've hired artists to create the images I use as my covers and most recently hired a cartographer to create a map of Rouen for my latest novel; Daughter of Vengeance. Self-publishing has been one of the more challenging and ultimately rewarding decisions I've ever made and has freed me to tell the stories I want to tell and my fans want to read. The most challenging part of the process has been promotion, which I am horrible at. While I can tell a compelling story, I find self-promotion to be a nearly impossible task. My first two novels were distinctly fantasy. By that I mean that there were dragons, princes, swords and sorcery. While I enjoy those kinds of books, they're hardly unique in the genre. With "Daughter of Vengeance" I wrote a book predominantly from a female point of view about a young woman coming of age while apprenticed to a master assassin. While technically a steampunk fantasy, the genre is used to supplement the narrative rather than drive it. My strengths lie in compelling stories with a satisfying mix of action, dialogue and plot building. I don't believe in waxing philosophical to fill pages or fluff my word count, there will be not be entire paragraphs dedicated to the painfully long-winded description of a button. I have extensive martial arts and marksmanship experience and I use those to create believable and easy to follow action. Most genre fiction uses the genre to drive the story and this baffles me. A mystery is just a mystery, but a Holmes mystery is infinitely more entertaining. I use the genre to compliment my stories and my characters and because of this many people outside the genre I write enjoy my novels. Be that as it may, there are still inalienable requirements to any genre fiction and as I am a fan of my genre of choice, I'd hate those readers to put my books down unfulfilled. There's a delicate balance to maintain and I do my best to keep juggling.

The Cyborg Handbook

Donna J. Haraway

One of society's oldest dreams has been to create a living machine. To most of us, cyborgs are Terminator or Robocop types who combine artificial robotic strength and firepower with human intelligence/cunning. Yet Gray, a 1994-95 NASA Fellow in Aerospace History, has collected writings that explore real cyborgs (or cybernetic organisms) as any entities that mix the mechanical with the organic. Thus, humans with prostheses or implanted pacemakers qualify as cyborgs. This fascinating assemblage of essays, short stories, and research findings covers the role of this incredible modern technology through its varied uses in medicine, space research, and military applications. Articles are written by experts in the field of cybernetics, including Donna Haraway. This unique work combines scientific fact and science fiction. The bibliography and filmography are invaluable additions. For large public and academic libraries.?Joe Accardi, Northeastern Illinois Univ.

The combat encounters have been calculated to present a tough challenge to four 4th level characters. They will present a less difficult, though still enjoyable, challenge to 5th level characters or larger parties. Before running this adventure, you should at least skim through the encounters and look up the relevant monsters in the Monster Manual.

Advanced Lock Picking Secrets

Steven Hampton

Steven Hampton became interested in locks and electronics at an early age. At 14 he acquired a set of U.S. Air Force electronic training manuals and began building various transistor circuits by scalping radios and junkyard TVs. At 17 he was making his own lockpicks and was considered a master lockpicker, and by the time he was 18 he'd invented the magnetic padlock, which is still on the market today. After a stint in the navy, he studied digital electronics and worked in many technical fields. He also became interested in the martial arts, studying Tibetan White Crane kung fu, jujitsu and wing chun.

Metamorphosis Alpha © 2007 James M. Ward 1 NOTES ON METAMORPHOSIS ALPHA BY THE DESIGNER by James Ward From The Dungeoneer #7 March-April 1978 One of the questions I am constantly asked at conventions and the like is how I make up my levels. Players seem to have trouble filling up an area that is miles long and miles wide. The first thing that I think is important is: don't worry about proportion when it comes to making up your ship I use hex paper for the wilderness levels and each hex one mile long. I use ten squares to the inch graph paper for my corridors and technical levels and each square is 100 yards long. I have seventeen levels and I couldn't care less what the odd proportions do to the outer shape of the ship. The first thing I do with a wilderness level sprinkle a bunch of radiation areas on that level, writing in the intensities I then decide what the level was used for before the accident. In the case of the example shown in this article,

Religion

Divine Domain In a pantheon, every deity has influence over different aspects of mortal life and civilization, called a deity’s domain. All the domains over which a deity has influence are called the deity’s portfolio. For example, the portfolio of the Greek god Apollo includes the domains of Knowledge, Life, and Light. As a cleric, you choose one aspect of your deity’s portfolio to emphasize, and you are granted powers related to that domain. Your choice might correspond to a particular sect dedicated to your deity. Apollo, for example, could be worshiped in one region as Phoebus (“radiant”) Apollo, emphasizing his influence over the Light domain, and in a different place as Apollo Acesius (“healing”), emphasizing his association with the Life domain. Alternatively, your choice of domain could simply be a matter of personal preference, the aspect of the deity that appeals to you most. Each domain’s description gives examples of deities who have influence over

In Amazonia: A Natural History

Hugh Raffles

<b>"Co-Winner of the 2003 Victor Turner Prize in Ethnographic Writing, Society for Humanistic Anthropology and American Anthropological Association"</b><br /><br /><b>"Honorable Mention for the 2004 Sharon Stephens First Book Prize, American Ethnological Society"</b><br /><br /><b>"One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 2003"</b><br /><br />"A new classic of the Amazon. . . . In a sweeping panorama of the history of the Amazon . . . Raffles impresses with his enormous scholarship and lyrical language. . . . [T]he range of Raffles's knowledge is exquisitely broad. What we thought we knew of the Amazon and the reasons for its devastation will forever be changed by this rapturous soliloquy on the region." (<i>Choice</i>)<br /><br />"[It draws] upon a range of literature not typical of Amazonian studies. Specialists and general readers will appreciate the scope."<b>---Stephen Nugent, <i>Journal of Latin American Studies</i></b><br /><br />"A central challenge in studies of the Amazon region is apprehending its social and natural diversity. This book is amongst the most readable and penetrating analyses we have. . . . The tension between being in a place and always on the move, between dissolution and creation, are ambiguities this book manages to capture with deftness and subtlety. It would have been enough to write about this in one locality, but to have done so connecting up various places and people, and across time transforms the argument into a major achievement."<b>---Mark Harris, <i>Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute</i></b><br /><br />"Without question this is the best book about the Amazon I have read in many years. It is a major contribution to the literature (in every sense) of the region, to the history and sociology of science, and to anthropology in general. Solid, beautifully written, beautifully judged and paced, it has a great deal to offer those knowing everything or nothing about the Amazon."<b>David Cleary, Amazon Program Manager, The Nature Conservancy, author of <i>Anatomy of the Amazon Gold Rush</i></b><br /><br />"Thoroughly researched and very riveting, In <i>Amazonia</i> is a lovely blend of personal experience and historical commentary about the making of place both in physical and ideological terms. Very rich theoretically, its lively and witty prose is mercifully leached of post-modern, post-colonial jargon, making it both accessible and clear. Not only will this book leap to the forefront of Amazonian analyses but it will certainly take its pride of place in studies of tropical development, ideologies of nature, and the history of ideas about the environment and tropical representation."<b>Susanna Hecht, University of California, Los Angeles</b>

DEEDS OF THE ANCESTORS by Christopher W. Dolunt The history of Nyambe-tanda has been blessed with the deeds of many great heroes. Three of those heroes, Amazonia, Kwo, and Bashar, are presented below. Amazonia Amazonia began her life as a slave in the outlying kosan city of Arabo. Along with many other Tisamban women, she was instructed in the arts of grooming. As part of her instruction, she was given access to magical- ly-sharp straight razors used for shaving thick orcish hair. By stealing these razors and mounting them on a curved piece of wood, she was able to improvise a deadly weapon. She practiced with her makeshift sword for years, and even took on students, instructing them her self-taught fighting style. Eventually, Amazonia and her followers (known as Amazons) rose up against their orcish captors, first liberating themselves, then the entire city of Arabo, and eventually all of Nyambe-tanda.
