Book excerpt: The Runyan family vanishes, along with their fortune, garnering little notice until a relentless reporter connects the mystery to a series of disappearances. Intrigue smolders when Gayle Chandler's articles attract the attention of a determined FBI agent, and action explodes when unconventional heroes emerge from shadows of secrecy to assist Special Agent Lenowski in a globe-spanning war on evil. Courageous heroes find love, heartache, triumph, and loss in an action-packed adventure that thrusts emotional scars from their past into today's light when they find bloodshed is the only way to vanquish depravity lurking in the hearts of villains. Even Heroes Die is a powerful story that overflows with action and suspense while gripping the reader's emotions and drawing them into a world of war, crime, and love that transcends time. It is a gritty, down-to-earth story with no punches pulled.

Book Synopsis Greek Myths in Roman Art and Culture by : Zahra Newby
Download or read book Greek Myths in Roman Art and Culture written by Zahra Newby and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Images of episodes from Greek mythology are widespread in Roman art, appearing in sculptural groups, mosaics, paintings and reliefs. They attest to Rome's enduring fascination with Greek culture, and its desire to absorb and reframe that culture for new ends. This book provides a comprehensive account of the meanings of Greek myth across the spectrum of Roman art, including public, domestic and funerary contexts. It argues that myths, in addition to functioning as signifiers of a patron's education or paideia, played an important role as rhetorical and didactic exempla. The changing use of mythological imagery in domestic and funerary art in particular reveals an important shift in Roman values and senses of identity across the period of the first two centuries AD, and in the ways that Greek culture was turned to serve Roman values.

Book Synopsis The American Civil War and the Hollywood War Film by : John Trafton
Download or read book The American Civil War and the Hollywood War Film written by John Trafton and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout film history, war films have been in constant dialogue with both previous depictions of war and contemporary debates and technology. War films remember older war film cycles and draw upon the resources of the present day to say something new about the nature of war. The American Civil War was viscerally documented through large-scale panorama paintings, still photography, and soldier testimonials, leaving behind representational principles that would later inform the development of the war film genre from the silent era up to the present. This book explores how each of these representational modes cemented different formulas for providing war stories with emotional content.
Book Synopsis The Olympic Charioteer by : Helena P Schrader
Download or read book The Olympic Charioteer written by Helena P Schrader and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-08 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antyllus of Tegea had everything-wealth, power and respect-until his son was killed defending Tegea against Sparta. Now Tegea is on the rise, but Antyllus can find pleasure in nothing-not even his magnificent racehorses. While all Tegea believes Antyllus' chariot could bring Tegea an unprecedented Olympic victory, Antyllus knows that he lacks a driver capable of coaxing the best out of his team. More disturbing, Antyllus worries that Tegea's victory over Sparta is being used by certain radicals to undermine the democratic constitution. The Strategos that won the decisive victory is a demagogue-and he wants to extend the franchise to landless men. Out of spontaneous pity, Antyllus purchases an abused quarry slave. The slave not only carries the seemingly prophetic name of "Philip", (Lover of Horses) but has an uncanny affinity for horses as well. While Tegea slips into tyranny, Antyllus turns his back on politics and focuses his hopes and dreams on an Olympic Victory. This is the story of a slave and a charioteer in Archaic Greece. Based on Ancient sources but using predominantly fictional characters, The Olympic Charioteer describes the events that led to the establishment of the first "non-aggression pact" in recorded history.

Each survivor, first in the hundreds, and then in the thousands found themselves drawn to the city of Horizon.

They also found their gods waiting for them. Now: Kel Lothless is a sorcerer for hire; he’s also a part time troubleshooter with a well know dislike for the gods that run Horizon. When a group of priests, called the Maskers try to hire him, he discovers a secret that changes everything he knows about the city of Horizon, and the mystery that could destroy everything. Kel has to work fast to solve a mystery that threatens all of Horizon, but he’s not alone. Because he has the help of a mysterious alchemist, the masked priests of the goddess of Love, and a zombie necromancer. It's a tale of murder, deceit, and of magic best left alone, and, a secret that when revealed will change the face of Palar forever...Again.
