Book Synopsis Coracle: A Planet on the Edge by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book Coracle: A Planet on the Edge written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientists predict that Earth will inevitably be struck with future extinction events like the one that wiped out the dinosaurs. The potential for such catastrophes is not a matter of if they will happen, but when. There is one event looming ahead of us in time that cannot be minimized or avoided. The core of our sun will one day collapse and expand into a red giant that will destroy all life on Earth. Whether or not humanity becomes extinct as a result depends on whether or not we have colonized other worlds. Any remaining life on Earth will only be salvaged through our efforts, or those of another intelligent species capable of intervening to save Earth's plants and animals. In the process of any such relocation, the possibility of our encroachment on another world where other, alien species already exist is very high--given that a planet is ultimately located that can harbor life. This book explores that future possibility.
Book Synopsis The True Story of Noah by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book The True Story of Noah written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noah's "Hill of Salvation" has now been found!! You can examine it for yourself using modern satellite imagery! "The True Story of Noah explores the origins of this well known biblical story from a unique angle. Using related literature and information provided, Barger probes further to understand the likeliest resting spot of the ark. In the process, he provides a deluge of enriching historical information that revolves around Noah and the origins of man. Barger's discourse is intriguing and would particularly spark engaging conversation in a college humanities lecture... references to many familiar figures from creation myths and stories, such as The Epic of Gilgamesh, will keep the reader involved. This book is just as much about the story of how Noah came to be as it is about the final resting spot of the ark. For serious readers of the humanities who have a passion for ancient, biblical history and how it came to be, Barger's story is a worthwhile read." --Mihir Shah, The U.S. Review of Books
Book Synopsis Elohim: Ancient Science Fiction or Biblical God? by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book Elohim: Ancient Science Fiction or Biblical God? written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may have wondered who first penned the biblical Genesis account and where its familiar stories originated. Many believe it was written by Moses. Others consider it merely a collection of older fables that were restructured and compiled after the Jews returned from exile in Babylon. Recently, scholars have uncovered another explanation that defies belief! The first intelligent life on Earth may have arrived here from another world, according to a number of recently discovered 5,000 year-old cuneiform texts. This fantastic tale may have actually been documented by an individual who claimed to be one of many ancient explorers who traveled to Earth from another planet. In the oldest Mesopotamian myths, he is credited with having made the first humans and guiding the development of Earth's first civilization. Written in his own words, the author of this book's ancient autobiographical account may have been the creator of mankind. His influence can be found in every major religion on our planet.
Book Synopsis Elohim II: Ascension of the King by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book Elohim II: Ascension of the King written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the sequel to ""Elohim: Ancient Science Fiction or Biblical God?"" It explores what may have been and offers a glimpse at those who could soon be returning to Earth in our very near future. At the core of the facts presented within these chapters, lies a conundrum. There once existed an author who claimed to be the creator of the human race, and he wrote down his memoirs over 5,000 years ago. His tale evolved into many ancient religions. The question is, was he actually an alien being who came to Earth from another planet and wrote a truthful autobiography, or was his book a science fiction novel written by a mere mortal? Either scenario reveals a compelling reality: an ancient, pre-historic society once thrived on our planet that either rivaled or exceeded our modern achievements in science and space technology.
Book Synopsis When the Gods were Men by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book When the Gods were Men written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If time suddenly stopped, and you began to retrace every step in your own life, there would no doubt be some things you would want to avoid or change. Of course, that is impossible... or is it? We live in an expanding universe where time flows from the past into the future. However, time flows at different rates even within our galaxy, depending upon one's location within it. What if our universe is not the only one that exists? There may be other universes where time flows from the future to the past. What would a world like ours look like in such a universe? Life would begin at the end of our lives, rather than at the beginning. On such a world, our planet's history would be speculative at best, but our prophetic foresight would be 20/20. The dead would rise out of their graves daily. Drowned sailors would come out of the seas, and the cremated would emerge like the legendary phoenix out of scattered ashes. The resurrection of the dead would be commonplace in such a world. What will heaven truly be like?
Book Synopsis Abraham, Moses and Elohim by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book Abraham, Moses and Elohim written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-09-26 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book attempts to answer the question: ""Does God exist?"" And if so, ""Who or what is He?"" Pick almost any random handful of people and pose this question for debate. In all likelihood, there will be those who choose to debate that He does and others who will insist He does not. Such debates have been going on probably as long as mankind has existed. The essence of any debate on this matter is in defining who or what God is. If the same group of people are asked whether or not there is a force or set of forces in the universe which have acted upon it to create life, in all its forms and complexities, there would be no debate. To say that such a force does not exist would be absurd. The question that follows then becomes who or what created life itself? Whether or not we continue to exist as a species is simply a matter of faith. A single cosmic catastrophic event could destroy all life on Earth in an instant. Only a God who can control time and space can save us. There is only one who can do so.
Book Synopsis A Blessing and a Curse by : Kerry L. Barger
Download or read book A Blessing and a Curse written by Kerry L. Barger and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-08-20 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge, they became like God and the angels, knowing good and evil. For that reason, they were cast out of the garden in Eden and barred from having access to the Tree of Life, which would have provided them immortality. What would have happened to them if they had obeyed God and initially eaten from the Tree of Life? Obviously, they would no longer have been subject to death. Therefore, they would have been free from the curse surrounding the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. In fact, rather than being a deadly curse, it would have then resulted in a blessing. Jesus of Nazareth reopened the way to the Tree of Life for all mankind, but what happened to the evil tree in God's garden? ""Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; a blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day: and a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God..."" --Deuteronomy 11:26-28

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the planet Ankor, Klubbe the turkle lives as a hermit. A marine mishap inspires him to be an inventor. His inventions and explorations change his life, his entire planet. Turkles are close cousins of turtles. Unlike them, they have yellow golden skin and back shells, walk on their hind legs, have the gift of language, and the ability to create their own culture. The life of Klubbe may read like a light-hearted science fiction story, but it actually happened to him. Princess Corka thinks his invention is sublime. Ubbtosh, the pyramid priest, promises to guide him to the core of the cosmos. In space, there are no sign posts, he finds, but there are other beings. And on Ankor, there are mysteries to be solved. Is the Great Glom more than a myth? And what about the Great Archy Eopta?
Download or read book Turtle Planet written by Yun Rou and published by Mango Media Inc.. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author and Daoist monk shares a beautiful depiction of the natural world—and a powerful plea for preserving our planet—in this philosophical tale. This unique work of philosophical fiction explores the wonders and suffering of the world through the eyes of eighteen exotic turtles. In this vividly imaginative way, Monk Yun Rou asks readers to consider the intimate bond between humans and animals: the wisdom they teach us, the wounds they can heal, and the role we play in their destruction. Drawing on fifty years of loving and husbanding turtles, from the car-sized giant Leatherback turtle to the Central Asian tortoise, Monk Yun Rou sounds the alarm of what climate change, global extinction, human intervention, and environmental devastation really mean to their worlds and to ours. An informational glossary and description of each turtle is provided at the end of the book.

Download or read book The Gracekeepers written by Kirsty Logan and published by Crown. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of The Night Circus and Station Eleven, a lyrical and absorbing debut set in a world covered by water As a Gracekeeper, Callanish administers shoreside burials, laying the dead to their final resting place deep in the depths of the ocean. Alone on her island, she has exiled herself to a life of tending watery graves as penance for a long-ago mistake that still haunts her. Meanwhile, North works as a circus performer with the Excalibur, a floating troupe of acrobats, clowns, dancers, and trainers who sail from one archipelago to the next, entertaining in exchange for sustenance. In a world divided between those inhabiting the mainland ("landlockers") and those who float on the sea ("damplings"), loneliness has become a way of life for North and Callanish, until a sudden storm offshore brings change to both their lives--offering them a new understanding of the world they live in and the consequences of the past, while restoring hope in an unexpected future. Inspired in part by Scottish myths and fairytales, The Gracekeepers tells a modern story of an irreparably changed world: one that harbors the same isolation and sadness, but also joys and marvels of our own age. — Finalist, Lambda Literary Award

Book Synopsis Space and Place in Children’s Literature, 1789 to the Present by : Maria Sachiko Cecire
Download or read book Space and Place in Children’s Literature, 1789 to the Present written by Maria Sachiko Cecire and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on questions of space and locale in children’s literature, this collection explores how metaphorical and physical space can create landscapes of power, knowledge, and identity in texts from the early nineteenth century to the present. The collection is comprised of four sections that take up the space between children and adults, the representation of 'real world' places, fantasy travel and locales, and the physical space of the children’s book-as-object. In their essays, the contributors analyze works from a range of sources and traditions by authors such as Sylvia Plath, Maria Edgeworth, Gloria Anzaldúa, Jenny Robson, C.S. Lewis, Elizabeth Knox, and Claude Ponti. While maintaining a focus on how location and spatiality aid in defining the child’s relationship to the world, the essays also address themes of borders, displacement, diaspora, exile, fantasy, gender, history, home-leaving and homecoming, hybridity, mapping, and metatextuality. With an epilogue by Philip Pullman in which he discusses his own relationship to image and locale, this collection is also a valuable resource for understanding the work of this celebrated author of children’s literature.

Book Synopsis City of the Uncommon Thief by : Lynne Bertrand
Download or read book City of the Uncommon Thief written by Lynne Bertrand and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dark and intricate fantasy, City of the Uncommon Thief is the story of a quarantined city gripped by fear and of the war that can free it. "Guilders work. Foundlings scrub the bogs. Needles bind. Swords tear. And men leave. There is nothing uncommon in this city. I hope Errol Thebes is dead. We both know he is safer that way." In a walled city of a mile-high iron guild towers, many things are common knowledge: No book in any of the city's libraries reveals its place on a calendar or a map. No living beasts can be found within the city's walls. And no good comes to the guilder or foundling who trespasses too far from their labors. Even on the tower rooftops, where Errol Thebes and the rest of the city's teenagers pass a few short years under an open sky, no one truly believes anything uncommon is possible within the city walls. But one guildmaster has broken tradition to protect her child, and now the whole city faces an uncommon threat: a pair of black iron spikes that has the power of both sword and needle on the rib cages of men has gone missing, but the mayhem they cause rises everywhere. If the spikes are not found, no wall will be high enough to protect the city—or the world beyond it. And Errol Thebes? He's not dead and he's certainly not safe.
Book Synopsis Complete Works of C.S. Lewis - The Chronicles Of Narnia (Complete Collection), The Space Trilogy, Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters and others by : C. S. Lewis
Download or read book Complete Works of C.S. Lewis - The Chronicles Of Narnia (Complete Collection), The Space Trilogy, Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters and others written by C. S. Lewis and published by Strelbytskyy Multimedia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 5494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clive Staples Lewis, better known as C.S. Lewis, was a respected academic, writer, and speaker. While he might be best known for his works of fantasy, especially the Chronicles of Narnia and Space Trilogy series, he also wrote many books on Christian apologetics, including Mere Christianity, Miracles, and The Problem of Pain. While Lewis was a lecturer at Oxford, he became close friends with fellow lecturer J.R.R. Tolkien, future author of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Both authors participated in an informal writing group, The Inklings, where they critiqued and debated each other’s texts and ideas. His works have been translated into more than 30 languages and have sold millions of copies. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe stands out as his most popular fantasy work. Initially, the first book in the Chronicles of Narnia, though chronologically the second by order, it tells of the adventures of children who magically arrive in a magical country called Narnia. In Narnia, magic comes as no surprise, animals both speak and act, and good strives against evil. Lewis weaves Christian themes throughout the Chronicles of Narnia in a manner that is both accessible and picturesque for readers young and old. Attentive readers will also spot elements of Roman and Greek mythology as well as British and Irish folklore. The Chronicles Of Narnia.
