Book Synopsis Blood on the Forge by : William Attaway
Download or read book Blood on the Forge written by William Attaway and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brutally gripping novel about the African-American Great Migration follows the three Moss brothers, who flee the rural South to work in industries up North. Delivered by day into the searing inferno of the steel mills, by night they encounter a world of surreal devastation, crowded with dogfighters, whores, cripples, strikers, and scabs. Keenly sensitive to character, prophetic in its depiction of environmental degradation and globalized labor, Attaway's novel is an unprecedneted confrontation with the realities of American life, offering an apocalyptic vision of the melting pot not as an icon of hope but as an instrument of destruction. Blood on the Forge was first published in 1941, when it attracted the admiring attention of Richard Wright and Ralph Ellison. It is an indispensable account of a major turning point in black history, as well as a triumph of individual style, charged with the concentrated power and poignance of the blues.

Book excerpt: This doomsday masterpiece from the author of Eon and Hull Zero Three was a finalist for the Hugo and Nebula awards. On July 26, Arthur Gordon learns that Europa, the sixth moon of Jupiter, has disappeared. Not hiding, not turned black, but gone. On September 28th, Edward Shaw finds an error in the geological records of Death Valley. A cinder cone was left off the map. Could it be new? Or, stranger yet, could it be artificial? The answer may be lying beside it—a dying Guest who brings devastating news for Edward and for Planet Earth. As more unexplained phenomena spring up around the globe—a granite mountain appearing in Australia, sounds emanating from the earth’s core, flashes of light among the asteroids—it becomes clear to some that the end is approaching, and there is nothing we can do. In The Forge of God, award-winning author Greg Bear describes the final days of the world on both a massive, scientific scale and in the everyday, emotional context of individual human lives. Facing the destruction of all they know, some people turn to God, others to their families, and a few turn to saviors promising escape from a planet being torn apart. Will they make it in time? And who gets left behind to experience the last moments of beauty and chaos on earth? Nominated for the Nebula, Hugo, and Locus Awards, The Forge of God is an engrossing read, breathtaking in its scope and in its detail.

Book Synopsis Ember in the Forge by : H. T. Martineau

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her middle years, the mining dwarf Ember is well set in her ways. Her position as the master blacksmith of Eldur Hollow is a surety that has never been challenged. However, after Ember sees a green light cross the sky, she swings her hammer in her forge and sets the whole burrow ablaze, destroying all she has worked decades to create. Unbeknownst to any in Ambergrove outside the forbidden lands, the Age of Magic has begun. Kaenye, the god of fire, is Ember’s only hope at learning how to control her newfound magic and return to the life she’s always known. With nothing but meager supplies and a command to find a woman in a red dress in Port Albatross, Ember leaves her home behind and ventures into a world that distrusts her and the destruction that unwittingly comes at her hands. Ember is a maker, but harnessing her magic and convincing those she meets—and herself—that fire magic is not something to fear is a task for a giant, not a mining dwarf. As Ember relearns how to live, she also learns that magic has a purpose, and she is not the only one who needs to learn how to harness her fire. This mining dwarf has her heart set on returning to the forge, but as long as there is an ember, the fire will burn—and the life within the flame is not always what we expect.

Download or read book Millennium written by Tom Holland and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2011-04-21 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the civilisations existing in the year 1000, that of Western Europe seemed the unlikeliest candidate for future greatness. Compared to the glittering empires of Byzantium or Islam, the splintered kingdoms on the edge of the Atlantic appeared impoverished, fearful and backward. But the anarchy of these years proved to be, not the portents of the end of the world, as many Christians had dreaded, but rather the birthpangs of a radically new order. MILLENNIUM is a stunning panoramic account of the two centuries on either side of the apocalyptic year 1000. This was the age of Canute, William the Conqueror and Pope Gregory VII, of Vikings, monks and serfs, of the earliest castles and the invention of knighthood, and of the primal conflict between church and state. The story of how the distinctive culture of Europe - restless, creative and dynamic - was forged from out of the convulsions of these extraordinary times is as fascinating and as momentous as any in history.
