Book excerpt: A classic spy novel from the bestselling author, Trevanian, about a westerner raised in Japan who becomes one of the world's most accomplished assassins. Nicholai Hel is the world’s most wanted man. Born in Shanghai during the chaos of World War I, he is the son of an aristocratic Russian mother and a mysterious German father and is the protégé of a Japanese Go master. Hel survived the destruction of Hiroshima to emerge as the world’s most artful lover and its most accomplished—and well-paid—assassin. Hel is a genius, a mystic, and a master of language and culture, and his secret is his determination to attain a rare kind of personal excellence, a state of effortless perfection known only as shibumi. Now living in an isolated mountain fortress with his exquisite mistress, Hel is unwillingly drawn back into the life he’d tried to leave behind when a beautiful young stranger arrives at his door, seeking help and refuge. It soon becomes clear that Hel is being tracked by his most sinister enemy—a supermonolith of international espionage known only as the Mother Company. The battle lines are drawn: ruthless power and corruption on one side, and on the other . . . shibumi.

Book Synopsis Introduction to John Wick (film) by : Gilad James, PhD
Download or read book Introduction to John Wick (film) written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The film 'John Wick' is a 2014 American neo-noir action thriller directed by Chad Stahelski and written by Derek Kolstad. The film stars Keanu Reeves in the titular role as John Wick, a retired hitman who seeks vengeance for the killing of his beloved dog, Daisy. The film is set in New York City, where John Wick is a legendary assassin known as "the boogeyman," but after finding love and leaving the criminal underworld behind, he leads a peaceful life with his wife. After her death from an illness, Wick receives a final gift from her, a beagle puppy named Daisy, who becomes his only companion. However, when a group of Russian mobsters led by a man named Iosef Tarasov (Alfie Allen) break into his home, beat him, and kill Daisy before stealing his car, Wick emerges from retirement to track them down and take revenge. The film adopts a visually stylized aesthetic with action sequences that blend martial arts choreography, gunfights, and car chases. Its success has been attributed to its engaging protagonist, its gritty and grounded approach, its focus on practical stunts and effects, and its inclusion of world-building elements, such as the network of assassins and the Continental hotel. The film's critical and commercial success spawned two sequels, 'John Wick: Chapter 2' (2017) and 'John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum' (2019), as well as other media adaptations in the form of comic books and video games.
Download or read book Which Jesus? written by John Wick Bowman and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 1970 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the turn of the century when two German scholars, Albert Schweitzer and Johannes Weiss, dared to oppose the established view of Jesus, numerous writers have leaped at the opportunity to present their own ideas about his unique character and status. Although each based his study on "scientific observation," they all arrived at most diverse results. Was Jesus the apocalyptic "Son of man" or more of an existentialist rabbi? Was he a Nazorean Messiah scheming a "Passionplot" or do the Dead Sea scrolls hold some clue to his Essene-like characteristics? Was one author close to truth when he labeled Jesus a zealot and a revolutionary? Or, far from being any of these, did Jesus bring back the long-forgotten teachings of the early prophets, the spirit of whom as portrayed by the Chasidim, a people who have pursued "a biblical way of life from time immemorial?" And if Jesu did represent this Hebrew prophet line, how can we redefine certain terms like "Hebrew-Christian tradition," "kingdom of God," "promised land"? Arguments from such twentieth-century scholars as Schweitzer, Wrede, Bultmann, Schonfield, Brandon, Bornkamm, Allegro, Cllmann, and Manson are reexamined, but the author makes no attempt to settle the arguments once and for all. The book is purposely left open-ended as Jesus continues to challenge men with the mystery of his own identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

In They Shouldn’t Have Killed His Dog: The Complete Uncensored Ass-Kicking Oral History of John Wick, Gun-Fu and The New Age of Action, bestselling authors Mark A. Altman and Edward Gross take you behind the scenes of a franchise that includes three films with more on the way, while exploring the action classics that led to John Wick as well as the films it inspired, like Atomic Blonde.

Together, they break down key action sequences while also providing a look back at the road the action genre has taken that led to John Wick, and a look at the character itself, an anti-hero who carries on the grand tradition of Clint Eastwood’s Man with No Name, but with a twist — and a never-ending supply of ammo — while showcasing the enduring appeal of the action movie as well as John Wick’s unique reinvention of the genre.
