Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With wit and humor, popular Lost Cities author David Hatcher Childress takes us around the world and back in his trippy finalé to the Lost Cities series. He’s off on an adventure in search of the apocalypse and end times. Childress hits the road from the fortress of Megiddo, the legendary citadel in northern Israel where Armageddon is prophesied to start. Hitchhiking around the world, Childress takes us from one adventure to another, to ancient cities in the deserts and the legends of worlds before our own. Childress muses on the rise and fall of civilizations, and the forces that have shaped mankind over the millennia, including wars, invasions and cataclysms. He discusses the ancient Armageddons of the past, and chronicles recent Middle East developments and their ominous undertones. In the meantime, he becomes a cargo cult god on a remote island off New Guinea, gets dragged into the Kennedy Assassination by one of the “conspirators,†investigates a strange power operating out of the Altai Mountains of Mongolia, and discovers how the Knights Templar and their off-shoots have driven the world toward an epic battle centered around Jerusalem and the Middle East.

Book excerpt: As a wise ape once observed, space is big – vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly so. However, if you look too closely at space, it becomes nothing but lumps of rock and sundry gases. Sometimes it's necessary to take a step back, and let a few billion years go by, before any of the true wonder and scope of the cosmos becomes apparent. Similarly, the late 20th century author, humorist and thinker Douglas Adams was big – vastly, hugely and thoroughly mind-bogglingly so, both in physical terms, and as a writer who has touched millions of readers, firing up millions of cerebellums all over planet Earth, for over 35 years – and for nearly half of that time, he hasn't even been alive. It would be ridiculous to pretend that Douglas Adams's life and work has gone unexamined since his dismayingly early death at 49 but throughout the decade since the last book to tackle the subject, the universes Adams created have continued to develop, to beguile and expand minds, and will undoubtedly do so for generations to come. An all-new approach to the most celebrated creation of Douglas Adams is therefore most welcome, and The Frood tells the story of Adams's explosive but agonizingly constructed fictional universe, from his initial inspirations to the posthumous sequel(s) and adaptations, bringing together a thousand tales of life as part of the British Comedy movements of the late 70s and 80s along the way. With the benefit of hindsight and much time passed, friends and colleagues have been interviewed for a fresh take on the man and his works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cómo cambiaría nuestra forma de ver el mundo si nos planteásemos que todos los estamentos de la sociedad serán pronto abolidos? ¿Veríamos la vida de la misma forma si diéramos lugar a la idea de que nuestra historia ha estado ligada a influencias que no son de este mundo? “Armagedón, Encuentros Cercanos en la Quinta Fase” es una obra que no pasará desapercibida, mucho menos delante de los acontecimientos que están ocurriendo, aunque el mundo no esté al tanto de ellos -porque está siendo distraído. Hablamos de un cambio a escala planetaria en la conciencia humana y del sistema de vida que tenemos, el destape de grandes y sumamente relevantes mentiras que han mantenido engañado al hombre del siglo XXI, y así mismo el inicio de una existencia libre, sólo posible tras una guerra sin precedentes. Nuestro mundo está a punto de tener los cambios más significativos de toda la historia humana, desde que se tiene constancia de ella. La vida extraterrestre es una realidad, tal como lo es el hecho de que sabremos toda la verdad sobre la vida fuera de la Tierra y los misterios del universo en esta década. El Nuevo Orden Mundial, del cual pocos han oído hablar -aún a estas alturas y con el terreno ya ganado por esos psicópatas en todos los medios globales- no conseguirá sus fines de eliminación poblacional y control totalitario, aunque conseguirán por un periodo muy breve de tiempo muchas de sus agendas. Toda la humanidad está al borde de un cambio de paradigma, no sin antes presenciar la experiencia de la vida extraterrestre inteligente, un mundo dominado por las corporaciones, dueños de la banca y de los oleoductos. Entonces el cambio será radical y no dejará lugar a dudas a más cuestionamientos, suposiciones o teorías sobre el origen del hombre y de la vida fuera de nuestro orbe azul; de igual modo que no habrá más medias tintas sobre el conocimiento y realidad de la existencia de Jesucristo, no como una religión sino como una realidad. Esta será una verdad inamovible que no está sujeta –ni nunca lo ha estado- a religiones, ni a dogmas, ni a espiritualismo, ni a teorías conspiratorias, ni a ciencia ficción, ni a fábulas, ni a cualquier otra creencia abstracta, sino al modernismo de esta centuria y a la revolución mundial que hoy nos atañe. Parece difícil reconciliar la imagen de aquel carpintero que fue clavado en una cruz junto con la ciencia, pero recordemos que los estamentos religiosos que conocemos son relativamente recientes y no fueron impuestos por Jesucristo. Sus enseñanzas aparecieron sobre el 26 y/o el 33 d.C. aprox., en cambio las posteriores fueron ciertamente tardías: Catolicismo (325 d.C.), Islam (600 d.C.), Protestantismo (inicios del siglo XIV) Mormonismo (mediados de 1800 d.C.), Testigos de Jehová (1870), etc. En otras palabras, las enseñanzas de Jesús no estuvieron sujetas a religiones “cristianas”, ya que estas se crearon en nombre de él siglos después, mayormente con fines lucrativos o de control de masas. Tengamos presente, antes que nada, que todas las profecías, que han venido de parte de Dios, hasta su momento se han cumplido y nada sugiere que las que aún han de cumplirse dejen de tener lugar; mucho menos cuando estamos viviendo las concisas advertencias que hicieron hombres modelo en tiempos antiguos, y además con lujo de detalles. Así que tenemos que citar a hombres de otrora para ver cómo se han dado los hechos que anunciaron y qué otros acontecimientos han de tener lugar en nuestra década y en los años que precederán nuestra era. Ciertamente cada vez podemos ver más cerca un final de esta edad y el inicio de una nueva historia para la civilización humana. Un cambio que se palpa y comenta en todos los círculos sociales y culturales. Este cambio viene acompañado de mucha incertidumbre, dudas sobre cómo será ese desenlace final y qué ocurrirá después de ello. La historia de nuestra raza se ha visto constantemente salpicada por grandes extinciones, donde nuestros antecesores han sido diezmados, eliminados tácitamente por sucesos catastróficos que han dado origen a nuevos eones. Así se ha visto en lejanas edades desde la prehistoria y así se ve hoy, muy próximos a experimentar eventos nunca antes vistos en ninguna etapa anterior de nuestro devenir como civilización. Como hijos de la Tierra hemos de conocer los hechos que han modelado nuestro presente y que han colocado a nuestra raza en el borde del colapso y de la aparente auto-extinción. Tenemos que ser conscientes de que tal como la arqueología nos sirve para revelar los acontecimientos de antaño, también han existido desde otrora métodos para vaticinar el tiempo por venir, y éstos han marcado hechos memorables en el registro histórico. Nosotros los llamamos “profecías”, y si bien, desde tiempos de la Grecia clásica los helenos consultaban el polémico oráculo de Delfos, el que se cree era el más preciso de todos, aunque se especuló que alguna vez se equivocó (más bien diríamos que dijo lo que sus consultores debían saber).

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Low-level entertainment lawyer Nick Carter thinks it’s a prank, not an alien encounter, when a redheaded mullah and a curvaceous nun show up at his office. But Frampton and Carly are highly advanced (if bumbling) extraterrestrials. The entire cosmos, they tell him, has been hopelessly hooked on American pop songs ever since “Year Zero” (1977 to us), resulting in the biggest copyright violation since the Big Bang and bankrupting the whole universe. Nick has just been tapped to clean up this mess before things get ugly. Thankfully, this unlikely galaxy-hopping hero does know a thing or two about copyright law. Now, with Carly and Frampton as his guides, Nick has forty-eight hours to save humanity—while hoping to wow the hot girl who lives down the hall from him.

The universe, that is. Now only five individuals stand between the killer robots of Krikkit and their goal of total annihilation. They are Arthur Dent, a mild-mannered space and time traveler who tries to learn how to fly by throwing himself at the ground and missing; Ford Prefect, his best friend, who decides to go insane to see if he likes it; Slartibartfast, the indomitable vice president of the Campaign for Real Time, who travels in a ship powered by irrational behavior; Zaphod Beeblebrox, the two-headed, three-armed ex-president of the galaxy; and Trillian, the sexy space cadet who is torn between a persistent Thunder God and a very depressed Beeblebrox. How will it all end? Will it end? Only this stalwart crew knows as they try to avert “universal” Armageddon and save life as we know it—and don’t know it! “Adams is one of those rare treasures: an author who, one senses, has as much fun writing as one has reading.”—Arizona Daily Star

Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times–bestselling author’s “hilarious . . . idiosyncratic . . . delightful” and definitive companion to a global phenomenon (Publishers Weekly). Douglas Adams’s “six-part trilogy,” The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy grew from a blip of a notion into an ever-expanding multimedia universe that amassed an unprecedented cult of followers and became an international sensation. As a young journalist, Neil Gaiman was given complete access to Adams’s life, times, gossip, unpublished outtakes, and files (and became privy to his writing process, insecurities, disillusionments, challenges, and triumphs). The resulting volume illuminates the unique, funny, dramatic, and improbable chronicle of an idea, an incredibly tall man, and a mind-boggling success story. In Don’t Panic, Gaiman celebrates everything Hitchhiker: the original radio play, the books, comics, video and computer games, films, television series, record albums, stage musicals, one-man shows, the Great One himself, and towels. And as Douglas Adams himself attested: “It’s all absolutely devastatingly true—except the bits that are lies.” Updated several times in the thirty years since its original publication, Don’t Panic is available for the first time in digital form. Part biography, part tell-all parody, part pop-culture history, part guide to a guide, Don’t Panic “deserves as much cult success as the Hitchhiker’s books themselves” (Time Out).

Book excerpt: "This is the fundamental truth about data protection: backup is dead. Or rather, backup and recovery, as a standalone topic, no longer has relevance in IT. As a standalone topic, it's been killed off by seemingly exponential growth in storage and data, by the cloud, and by virtualization. So what is data protection?This book takes a holistic, business-based approach to data protection. It explains how data protection is a mix of proactive and reactive planning, technology and activities that allow for data continuity. It shows how truly effective data protection comes from a holistic approach considering the entire data lifecycle and all required SLAs. Data protection is neither RAID nor is it continuous availability, replication, snapshots or backups--it is all of them, combined in a considered and measured approach to suit the criticality of the data and meet all the requirements of the business. The book also discusses how businesses seeking to creatively leverage their IT investments and to drive through cost optimization are increasingly looking at data protection as a mechanism to achieve those goals. In addition to being a type of insurance policy, data protection is becoming an enabler for new processes around data movement and data processing. This book arms readers with information critical for making decisions on how data can be protected against loss in the cloud, on-premises, or in a mix of the two. It explains the changing face of recovery in a highly virtualized data center and techniques for dealing with big data. Moreover, it presents a model for where data recovery processes can be integrated with IT governance and management in order to achieve the right focus on recoverability across the business."--Provided by publisher.

Book excerpt: Don't Panic: collected together in the Hitchhiker's Guide Trilogy are the five titles that comprise Douglas Adams' wildly popular and wholly remarkable comedy science fiction series, with a special introduction from the author himself. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy One Thursday lunchtime the Earth gets unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. For Arthur Dent, who has only just had his house demolished that morning, this seems already to be rather a lot to cope with. Sadly, however, the weekend has only just begun. The Galaxy may offer a mind-boggling variety of ways to be blown up and/or insulted, but it's very hard to get a cup of tea. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe When all questions of space, time, matter and the nature of being have been resolved, only one question remains - 'Where shall we have dinner?' The Restaurant at the End of the Universe provides the ultimate gastronomic experience, and for once there is no morning after to worry about. Life, the Universe and EverythingFollowing a number of stunning catastrophes, Arthur Dent is surprised to find himself living in a hideously miserable cave on prehistoric Earth. However, just as he thinks that things cannot get possibly worse, they suddenly do. An eddy in the space-time continuum lands him, Ford Prefect, and their flying sofa in the middle of the cricket ground at Lord's, just two days before the world is due to be destroyed by the Vogons. Escaping the end of the world for a second time, Arthur, Ford, and their old friend Slartibartfast embark (reluctantly) on a mission to save the whole galaxy from fanatical robots. Not bad for a man in his dressing gown . . . So Long, and Thanks for All the FishThere is a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. It's not an easy thing to do, and Arthur Dent thinks he's the only human who's been able to master this nifty little trick - until he meets Fenchurch, the woman of his dreams. Fenchurch once realised how the world could be made a good and happy place. Unfortunately, she's forgotten. Convinced that the secret lies within God's Final Message to His Creation, they go in search of it. And, in a dramatic break with tradition, actually find it . . .Mostly HarmlessArthur Dent has settled down on the small planet Lamuella and has embraced his role as a Sandwich Maker. However, his plans for a quiet life are thrown awry by the unexpected arrival of his daughter. There's nothing worse than a frustrated teenager with a copy of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in their hands. When she runs away, Arthur goes after her determined to save her from the horrors of the universe. After all - he's encountered most of them before . . .
