Book excerpt: The West Wing meets the X menHow does politics deal with people often citizens who are suddenly gifted with special powers, and an extra set of memories. Magic has started working But it's not legitimate magic. Not the magic of Merlin or the powers of psychics. Instead it is the magic of a "silly" game. A Role Playing Game called Warspell and other games like it. The sort of games played with oddly shaped dice and little lead figurines by even odder people. And now not only is this silly sort of magic working, but the oddballs who play the games suddenly have special powers. Some of them are gifted with combat, or other skills. Others can do magic. They're riding magical horses through the sky or healing the sick in the name of false gods. They say they've merged with a character they played in one of their games. But is that really true? Have they merged, or been possessed?To the Merged, things look a bit different. Suddenly, with no warning, they have the memories of a whole other life. Not a game life, a real life with a real mother and father, real friends and enemies. For many, even most, a life filled with violence and pain. Yes, they have skills and abilities, but those skills and abilities were learned and earned in a hard school. Yes, they are changed, but anyone would be when they suddenly had a whole other life added to their own. But they are still themselves. Aren't they?This and many other fine stories are also available at Eric Flint's Ring of Fire Press Website https: //ericflintsringoffire.com/

Book excerpt: A SMALL HOTEL A new novel from Suanne Laqueur, author of The Fish Tales An American Family. A World War. A First Love. A Small Hotel. It’s the summer of 1941. Europe is at war, but New York's Thousand Islands are at the height of the tourist season. Kennet Fiskare, son of a hotel proprietor, is having the summer of a lifetime, having fallen deeply in love with a Swedish-Brazilian guest named Astrid Virtanen. But the affair is cut short and the young lovers permanently parted, first by Astrid’s family obligations, then by America’s entry into the war. The rigors of military life help dull his heartache, but when Kennet’s battalion reaches France, he is thrown into the crucible of front line combat. As his unit crosses Europe, from the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium to Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria, Kennet falls into a different kind of love: the intense camaraderie between soldiers. It's a bond fierce yet fragile, vital yet expendable, here today and gone tomorrow. Sustained by his friendships, Kennet both witnesses and commits the unthinkable atrocities of warfare, altering his view of the world and himself. To the point where a second chance with Astrid in peacetime might be the most terrifying and consequential battle he’s ever fought. With her signature blend of soul-stirring prose and emotional complexity, Laqueur takes readers on a journey through events that shape an American family’s weakest moments and finest hours. A Small Hotel illuminates the experience of ordinary people thrown into extraordinary circumstances, and their once-in-a-generation camaraderie, courage and resiliency. It’s a novel for the world, a heartbreaking, uplifting story of family, love and human endurance.
Book Synopsis Smokey the Bear Sutra by : Gary Snyder
Download or read book Smokey the Bear Sutra written by Gary Snyder and published by Applewood Books. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An impassioned poem with Buddhist imagery and messages of environmentalism, social justice, and enlightenment. Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet Gary Snyder composed "Smokey the Bear Sutra" one spring night in 1969 at a Sierra Club conference. Smokey the Bear is not the U.S. Forest Service's Smokey Bear, the latter being a highly recognized advertising symbol protected by Federal law. Rather, the imagery of this Smokey comes from Buddhism; according to Snyder, Smokey the Bear Sutra is a dharma protector, modeled after Fugo, the Japanese patron of ascetics and yogis. The message of the Sutra is that we as beings are responsible to protect all other life down to the smallest forms-- do no harm, protect our collective selves, and honor the great impermanence. This short work is part of Applewood's "American Roots" series, tactile mementos of American passions by some of America's most famous writers.
Book Synopsis Miss Midshipman Teasdale by : Gorg Huff
Download or read book Miss Midshipman Teasdale written by Gorg Huff and published by 1632, Incorporated. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A WarSpell novel, in a world where war ships are just starting to make the change from ballistas to cannon that use a magically created gunpowder. Tensy Teasdale is forced by financial hardship to give up her studies of magic and join the Kingdom Navy as a midshipman. It's a hard life for her. While women have been serving in the Navy for decades, not everyone accepts them. It's even harder if you're a studious introvert who incurs the ire of a brute of a senior Midshipman who's just failed his Lieutenant's test again. And that's just the first of Miss Midshipman Teasdale's misadventures. After that, she has to deal with a Merged mugger who's learning how to deal with this world, an elven carpenter who's considered worse than a necromancer because he works with the dead bodies of trees-not to mention the shell and shot of battle on the high seas. And if she survives all that, there's the politics of the Admiralty Court to deal with... Hornblower meets Martin Padway in a WarSpell gameworld. Miss Midshipman Tensy Teasdale is a new middy in the kingdom navy. She, like Horatio, doesn't start out well and things go downhill from there. Pete the Cudgel Banyan is a thief and a bully with little thought beyond his next beer, next lay, or how unfair it was that he wasn't born the son of a lord. As a pressed man, his lot may be even worse than Tensy's, because the first officer is a sadist who wants everyone broken to the navy. And Pete's the sort to die in the breaking. Pete's rebellion offers Tensy a chance to-if not win-at least take her tormentors down with her. Tensy makes her play at Pete's Captain's Mast and Pete determines to take his lashes like a man. Enter Peter Bradley, a mechanical engineer who played Pete Banyan years ago in a game of WarSpell. As the 21st lash falls, Pete's heart stutters and would have failed, but Peter Merged with him. Leaving Peter Banyan hail and healthy to take the last three blows of the cat. And that was just the beginning. The Captain wanted them both off his ship ahead of any sort of investigation. The ship they end up on has its own problems and they all get shipped to Amonrai and the Merged Peter with his knowledge of chemistry knows a much cheaper way to make the wizard's powder that is used in the cannon.

Download or read book Bartley's Man written by Paula Goodlett and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not every hero stands at the forefront of battle, chopping up, or gunning down the foe. Johan Kipper, an old and worn mercenary who had done more than his share of chopping up and gunning down, finally found his hero, his liege lord, not in a great captain, but in David Bartley, a fourteen year old boy who was just trying to make sure his family could get by. A lad who was trying to protect his family by making rather than taking, by building rather than destroying. And, more, a lad who didn't need to knock Johan down to feel tall or make Johan afraid to feel brave. Never in his long life of war and hate had Johan met someone courageous enough to be kind. This is the story of Johan Kipper, known across the Germanies as Bartley's Man. How he went from down-and-out mercenary to, well, you know what he became. Everyone knows what he became. Bartley's Man. Bartley's Man Started out as several stories in The Grantville Gazette. We, Paula Goodlett and Gorg Huff, were filling in the gaps just for the fun of it. Later, we were asked to rewrite and add to it so that it could stand alone as a novel. This expanded edition of Bartley's Man is written expressly for Eric Flint's Ring of Fire Press which sadly passed with Eric. But it's still a good read and introduction to Eric's 1632 universe.

Download or read book Spellbreaker written by Blake Charlton and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leandra Weal has a bad habit of getting herself in dangerous situations. While hunting neodemons in her role as Warden of Ixos, Leandra obtains a prophetic spell that provides a glimpse one day into her future. She discovers that she is doomed to murder someone she loves, soon, but not who. That’s a pretty big problem for a woman who has a shark god for a lover, a hostile empress for an aunt, a rogue misspelling wizard for a father, and a mother who--especially when arguing with her daughter--can be a real dragon. Leandra’s quest to unravel the mystery of the murder-she-will-commit becomes more urgent when her chronic disease flares up and the Ixonian Archipelago is plagued by natural disasters, demon worshiping cults, and fierce political infighting. Everywhere she turns, Leandra finds herself amid intrigue and conflict. It seems her bad habit for getting into dangerous situations is turning into a full blown addiction. As chaos spreads across Ixos, Leandra and her troubled family must race to uncover the shocking truth about a prophesied demonic invasion, human language, and their own identities--if they don't kill each other first. Spellbreaker is the long awaited sequel to Blake Charlton's Spellbound, which was listed by Kirkus Reviews among the Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of 2011. This final installment of the Spellwright Trilogy stands alone as a complete story; however, fans of the series will find in it answers to the questions raised by the previous books about Leandra’s parents, Nicodemus Weal and Francesca DeVega. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book Pandora's Crew written by Paula Goodlett and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pamplona Sector was in trouble. Two hundred years of consolidation wars left a small cadre of corporate elites running the sector. The Drakes and the Cordobas were only interested in maintaining their power. And the great houses within both camps had their knives out. The Federation didn't start with a shot. It was a man deciding to be decent when his training -even his genetics- insisted that he be a bastard. It was a friendship between people who should have found each other repulsive. It was a young girl asking impertinent questions and insisting that those around her do the right thing. It was concern for the welfare of a damaged suitbot. It was a woman being told that she was not allowed to fight injustice and answering "Yes, I think I will." In the founding of the Federation, it turned out to be all about finding the right crew. New York Times bestselling authors Paula Goodlett and Gorg Huff are happy to bring you a new book in a new series, in a whole new universe. You will be familiar with Gorg and Paula from their books in Eric Flint's 1632 Ring of Fire series, The Kremlin Games, The Viennese Waltz, The Volga Rules and The Alexander Inheritance. And now they welcome you to the StarWings Universe. The Pamplona sector-long cut off from Old Earth by war, politics, and the vagaries of jump-is slowly, too slowly to notice, slipping into a space-going dark age. Technology and science are being suppressed. The powers that be intend to remain in charge and are too busy sticking their knives in each other's backs to notice that the short term advantage of demonizing aliens, artificial brains, and genetic engineering are far outweighed by the long term stagnation their paranoia and propaganda is fostering. The artificial brain ship Pandora, her captain, Danny Gold, Checkgok, a Parthian neuter female, John, Jenny, the professors and the odds and sods they pick up as crew don't know it either. At least not at first. They are just trying to get by. But the evidence mounts, and they are forced to make some hard decisions.
