Book excerpt: About The Book They live among us! Independent journalist Beatriz da Costa is on her way to a secret meeting with a clandestine environmental group having vital information to share about a biotech company and its covert activities in the mountains just east of Seattle, Washington. As she arrives in the mountains and starts to hike into the wilderness, she makes a wrong turn and is attacked by birds, ravens and crows, as she ascends to the summit. A large black bird swoops down, seeming to attack her. The young woman loses her balance, falling into a ravine, crashing into a fallen tree rendering her unconscious. She wakes up in the care of a strange family, the family of Xander Corvid, the President and CEO of a large international biotech conglomerate. Rather than treat her as a trespasser, she is welcomed by the tall, handsome man and his entire family. She remains on the mountain under their care until circumstances begin to cause her to wonder why she is being treated for injuries she doesn’t have. She senses something is amiss; the Corvid family senses something peculiar about her. By the time Beatriz leaves the mountain, her brother and father have become entangled in the intrigues and maneuverings of the Corvid family and their top-secret projects. Who are they and what do they want with Beatriz and her family? Enter Emily Cho, journalist for a major west coast newspaper who is following a story about the CEO, his family and his company. Complicating the matter, Emily was once romantically involved with Xander Corvid. As these groups hurtle toward revelation of their existence to humanity, Xander Corvid must walk a tightrope between protecting his own species and uniting with ancient foes to protect all hybrid species from extinction. As common threats are understood, a pan species meeting is called to confront common challenges and plan a defense against a new and even more ancient and evil enemy only recently discovered has been freed from confinement and captivity. The plots are thick, the players are many and the outcome is uncertain. The challenges can only be overcome through unity. Can Xander succeed where all others have failed? In the final battle, who will win? They walk among us, unseen and unknown.
Book Synopsis The Bird Master by : Arthur J. Burks
Download or read book The Bird Master written by Arthur J. Burks and published by eStar Books. This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twitterings and squawks that presage looting and death hand a cuckoo of a murder case to astounded Police Detective Mickie O'Day!excerpt"When Captain Jim Doran phoned me to come to his office in the Detective Bureau down at Headquarters I had a hunch he didn't want to discuss the rainy weather. "I've got a job for you, Mickie," he said in his deep, rumbling bass, when I entered. "Sit down and listen." I sat down cautiously, as a man will when he is six-foot-two and weighs a hundred and ninety. Sometimes furniture had a way of unexpectedly collapsing with me and it always offended my dignity as a first-grade detective. "Go ahead, Cappy," I said. "I'm all ears." "I know you are-you've got the best hearing of any man in the Police Department," he said. "That's why I want you to work on this case." He frowned. "And don't call me Cappy." I just grinned. I owed him a lot and we both knew it. Ten years ago I had been working in a steel mill and an accident had left me totally deaf. Doran had learned that I was anxious to join the police and had dug up a good surgeon who picked the pieces of steel out of my skull and made me hear again. I made the grade in the examinations and finally worked my way up to first-grade detective. I was so glad to be able to hear that I'd trained myself to really listen, and I was good at it. "It's a strange case," mused Doran. "I'd have thought Swenson was nuts, if it hadn't been for Brackton, and even with him I'd have put it down to coincidence if it hadn't been for Marshall." "And we'd have ham and eggs if we had some ham and we had some eggs," I said. "What are you talking about?" "Crimes and twittering birds," said Doran. "Three of them." The more he talked the crazier he sounded. I let him keep on talking, hoping it would begin to make sense.
Book Synopsis The Ravenmaster by : Christopher Skaife
Download or read book The Ravenmaster written by Christopher Skaife and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, the Tower of London has been home to a group of famous avian residents: the ravens. Each year they are seen by millions of visitors, and they have become as integral a part of the Tower as its ancient stones. But their role is even more important than that—legend has it that if the ravens should ever leave, the Tower will crumble into dust and great harm will befall the kingdom. The responsibility for ensuring that such a disaster never comes to pass falls to one man: the Ravenmaster. The current holder of the position is Yeoman Warder Christopher Skaife, and in this fascinating, entertaining and touching book he memorably describes the ravens’ formidable intelligence, their idiosyncrasies and their occasionally wicked sense of humour. The Ravenmaster is a compelling, inspiring and irreverent story that will delight and surprise anyone with an interest in British history or animal behaviour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beliefs shattered, two magically linked are called to seek truth. Seventeen-year-old Will escapes from prison six years after his false conviction for murder. Found by a knight who lets Will serve as a squire, Will takes the knight’s mercy and follows him to war. He’ll protect against infidels, proving to the kingdom he’s not the monster they assume he is, and be seen kindly again. As a child, when he burned a souk, Ahmed was terrified. Now sixteen, Ahmed is confident he’s improved. Seeking to become grand vizier and bring prestige to his family is everything he thought he wanted. The sultan’s test remains: bring an enemy to the capital. He heads to war believing that an enemy’s capture is a small price for the sultan’s blessing. They’re dangerous anyway. Gems of powerful magic bring them together as kingdom and sultanate ravage each other over ignorance and religious zeal, nearing collapse. They’re mortal enemies, their monarchs say, but when Will and Ahmed meet amid fear and mistrust they learn to like each other. Their actions no longer seem right and their gems show a resolution. But who are two boys to effect change when those more likely have failed?
