Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shadow of war stretches over the northlands. The elven wood burns as Zarrum invaders encroach from the north. Ogres, orcs, and goblin hoards wreak havoc and take strongholds, leaving slaughtered people and burned out villages in their wake. Jayde, a young elvish battlemage, burns as well . . . with vengeance. Her village destroyed, her mother murdered, she takes up her sword and bow, cloaking herself in spellcraft, to becoming the Butterfly Assassin, a thorn in the side of the Zarrum invaders. Still, hiding and killing is lonely work until she meets a human paladin from the south. A man of faith that calls her deeds to task. Mathus, Paladin of Thon the Thunderer, doesn’t know quite what to make of the elf girl he’s fallen in with. Swift with her blade and spells, Fiona doesn’t fit into any of the carefully crafted boxes he’s created for women or elves. Could she be the object of his god-given quest? The Butterfly Illusion is the second book in the Heroes of Harth series, an epic adventure across a sprawling fantasy world.

Book excerpt: Ray and her friend Becky are devastated by what they see. Tens of thousands of Monarchs are clinging to the sand along the shores of Lake Erie with their wings shredded and broken by the harsh storm. They work throughout the night collecting and bringing thousands of monarchs into Ray’s cottage, so they can continue their epic migration after the storm has passed. The death of her friend Becky to a rare form of cancer spirals Ray into depression. Finally, Ray leaves her room and heads into nature where life is flourishing all around her. Her curiosity returns as she opens a milkweed pod. Remembering the Monarchs that she and Becky saved last summer gives Ray an idea for her next big adventure. Using a little deception, Ray convinces Jordi, to fly her in his two-seater ultralight, in the midst of the Monarchs all the way down the spine of North America to their overwintering place in Mexico. Every place the Monarchs touch down along their migration path, Ray and Jordi are introduced to a compelling lesson along the Butterfly Way. It’s almost as though the Monarchs are teaching them a new way of seeing, experiencing and moving in the world around them. On route over Texas, Ray & Jordi discover that a nuclear missile test launch will occur in the exact spot where every Monarch flyway on the planet is converging. They are the only ones to know that an ecocide is about to take place. Then can’t redirect this many Monarchs and so it’s up to them to stop the test launch. From the cockpit of the Qbee they go online to Monarch Watch, the Sierra Club and radio the Dyess Airforce Base Commander. Flying straight into the missile’s path, with just seven seconds left before blast off, their fate is now intertwined with the Monarchs. They discover the power of advocacy and social networks and how rigid the hierarchy of command is. In adventure after adventure, flying alongside and landing with the Monarchs, Ray and her co-pilot face real-world perils, like narcotic trafficking, and yet all along the Butterfly Way they find good people risking themselves to redeem a broken world. Travel with Ray and Jordi as they gain the skills and awareness needed to take care of this fiercely beautiful planet.

Book Synopsis In Search of Certainty by : Mark Burgess
Download or read book In Search of Certainty written by Mark Burgess and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2015-04-09 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quite soon, the world’s information infrastructure is going to reach a level of scale and complexity that will force scientists and engineers to approach it in an entirely new way. The familiar notions of command and control are being thwarted by realities of a faster, denser world of communication where choice, variety, and indeterminism rule. The myth of the machine that does exactly what we tell it has come to an end. What makes us think we can rely on all this technology? What keeps it together today, and how might it work tomorrow? Will we know how to build the next generation—or will we be lulled into a stupor of dependence brought about by its conveniences? In this book, Mark Burgess focuses on the impact of computers and information on our modern infrastructure by taking you from the roots of science to the principles behind system operation and design. To shape the future of technology, we need to understand how it works—or else what we don’t understand will end up shaping us. This book explores this subject in three parts: Part I, Stability: describes the fundamentals of predictability, and why we have to give up the idea of control in its classical meaning Part II, Certainty: describes the science of what we can know, when we don’t control everything, and how we make the best of life with only imperfect information Part III, Promises: explains how the concepts of stability and certainty may be combined to approach information infrastructure as a new kind of virtual material, restoring a continuity to human-computer systems so that society can rely on them.

Book Synopsis Somewhere Over the Rainbow by : Gloria Chadwick
Download or read book Somewhere Over the Rainbow written by Gloria Chadwick and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amanda is a free spirit who somehow manages to get herself stuck in the energy vibration of a physical body. Of course she did it on purpose; nothing happens by accident. She's a little embarrassed to find herself on earth again and wonders how she ended up here when she vowed she'd never reincarnate again. Her most down-to-earth task is to see through the misty illusions of things for herself and to remember her spiritual nature. In the course of events, she gets sidetracked by what everyone says is real life. But she's not sure what's real anymore. She's been dreaming about rainbows lately, and now she's beginning to wonder if her life is really a dream she's having. Lavender is trying to remember something she's forgotten about her spiritual nature so she registers for school in the universe and begins classes in Time and Space, Energy and Matter, and Reality Awareness. She's a little concerned about the whole idea of synchronicity and the simultaneous time-space concept; she's not sure if she can handle everything at once. Her destiny is to unearth the mysteries of the universe and to rediscover the Scroll of Knowledge she wrote in Egypt. But she's reluctant to remember her experiences as a philosopher and has turned off her spiritual awareness. Rainbow is Amanda's higher self and Lavender's teacher who tries to help them see the light within themselves. But Rainbow is really more than she appears to be at first, or even second, glance.
