Book Synopsis Cyclopean Deeps Volume 1 - Swords & Wizardry by : Matt Finch
Download or read book Cyclopean Deeps Volume 1 - Swords & Wizardry written by Matt Finch and published by . This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep beneath the ground, in those regions where the echoes of mankind's feet are seldom heard, where even firelight is a bizarre intruder from a long-forgotten place, the foes of mankind breed and multiply. It is a realm of dark chaos - for these creatures of the echoing deeps count each other as rivals and enemies. It is a place without peace, a place without virtues, a place where every countenance of evil is to be found in sluggish torpor, stirring restlessly in dreams of cruelty and hatred. These dark and deadly provinces are known as the Under Realms. Most named regions in the Under Realms are quite distinct from each other, whether by geological formation or by the types of inhabitants that have established themselves in strategically important areas. Characters who enter this area expecting to find drowic elves, deep gnomes, and other "normal" features of the Under Realms will swiftly discover the error of their thinking. The Vaults of the Sunless Sea, located to the north of the Cyclopean Deeps, might fit that description, but the Cyclopean Deeps are a different and decidedly more unpleasant area into which the denizens of the Vaults seldom venture. This series of adventures forms a mini-campaign in the depths of the earth, suitable for a party of 4+ characters with an average level of 10-12, or 8+ characters with an average level around 7. For Swords & Wizardry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael, a college student receives a jewel encrusted magic sword as a birthday gift. In reading the inscription on the blade, he is transported to a land of magic in another dimension, where people and demons ride dragons, gargoyles come to life, and people can be turned to stone. Princess Amara is escaping on her blue dragon; she is being pursued by Lizardmen called Tetrons. She calls to the Gods to send her a warrior to save her kingdom. Michael appears, but he isn’t a warrior. Amara looks to the sky and asks, “In my hour of need you send me a cowardly peasant.” Michael is not suited for this world; he just wants to go home. But, they both are forced to fight the evil sorcerer Nekros and Diva his cohort, who has the ability to change into demons. This tests Michael and Amara’s skills in magic. Through many trials they encounter giant spiders, bats, scorpions, and Tetrons. They meet a woodsman and his daughter who help them along their way. The daughter is taken under Nekros’ spell, and this is more incentive for them to overthrow him and get her kingdom back. When Amara is captured by demons sent by Nekros, Michael must overcome his fears, master swordplay and find his innate ability to use magic. With the help of Amara’s uncle who is a Wizard, Michael scales the heights of Nekros’ castle. He and the woodsman slays a giant Tetron, outwits a huge scorpion, and defeats a fire monster, which frees Amara. Then accidently Amara’s Wizard Uncle transports Michael and Nekros back to Earth and they end up in Los Angeles. Nekros is defeated and Michael is arrested as a maniac for telling his wild tale. Amara appears in the jail and tells Michael that he must use his magic by saying the right words to take them back to Telamarna. When he does, they live happily ever after, or do they?

Book Synopsis Ploughshares Into Swords by : James Sidbury
Download or read book Ploughshares Into Swords written by James Sidbury and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-10-13 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the summer of 1800, slaves in and around Richmond conspired to overthrow their masters and abolish slavery. This book uses Gabriel's Conspiracy, and the evidence produced during the repression of the revolt, to expose the processes through which Virginians of African descent built an oppositional culture. Sidbury portrays the rich cultures of eighteenth-century black Virginians, and the multiple, and sometimes conflicting, senses of identity that emerged among enslaved and free people living in and around the rapidly growing state capital. The book also examines the conspirators' vision of themselves as God's chosen people, and the complicated African and European roots of their culture. In so doing, it offers an alternative interpretation of the meaning of the Virginia that was home to so many of the Founding Fathers. This narrative focuses on the history and perspectives of black and enslaved people, in order to develop 'Gabriel's Virginia' as a counterpoint to more common discussions of 'Jeffersonian Virginia'.

Book Synopsis Swords and Swordsmen by : Mike Loades
Download or read book Swords and Swordsmen written by Mike Loades and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2011-03-04 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A ‘must have’ book for anyone who has an interest in edged weapons . . . Loades holds the reader’s full attention with each sword’s story that he tells.” —The Lone Star Book Review This magnificent book tells the story of the evolution of swords, how they were made, how they were used, and the people that used them. It doesn’t claim to give comprehensive coverage but instead takes certain surviving examples as landmarks on a fascinating journey through the history of swords. Each is selected because it can be linked to a specific individual, thus telling their story too and giving a human interest. So the journey starts with the sword of Tutankhamun and ends with the swords of J. E. B. Stuart and George Custer. Along the way we take in Henry V, Cromwell and Uesugi Kenshin, and there is the most detailed discussion you’ll find anywhere of all of George Washington’s swords. The chapters on these specific swords and swordsmen are alternated with more general chapters on the changing technical developments and fashions in swords and their use. The reader’s guide on this historical tour is Mike Loades. Mike has been handling swords most of his life, as a fight arranger, stuntman and historical weapons expert for TV and stage. As much as his profound knowledge of the subject, it is his lifelong passion for swords that comes through on every page. His fascinating text is supported by a lavish wealth of images, many previously unpublished and taken specifically for this book. “Superb . . . the most breathtaking coverage from the earliest days to modern times. Brilliant.” —Books Monthly
Download or read book Knives and Swords written by DK and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-03-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knives and Swords is a highly visual gift book for anyone with an interest in the history of swords and other edged weapons. Split into five main chapters arranged by type, the book showcases more than 300 different weapons including swords, knives, daggers, bayonets, axes, and staff weapons in a catalog-style format. But the book offers far more than this. To help place the weapons in their historical context, the book includes special features on key warriors, from crusader knights to US Marines, and their signature weapons. Spotlight spreads provide an in-depth analysis of a selection of the most historically significant bladed weapons, such as the Renaissance stiletto or the Native American tomahawk. And in addition to chapters covering conventional weapons of war, there are also sections devoted to ceremonial weapons, from sacrificial knives to presentation daggers, and blades developed for specialist roles, such as hunting knives and firearm combination blades.
