He would never set foot on Earth again.On planet Anyar, Joe is found naked and unconscious on a beach of a large island inhabited by humans with a level of technology similar to Earth circa 1700. He wakes amid strangers speaking an unintelligible language, and struggles to accept losing his previous life, finding his way in a society with different customs, and not knowing a single soul. He makes a place among the people there when he applies his knowledge of chemistry-as long as he is circumspect in introducing new knowledge not too far in advance of the planet's technology and being labeled a demon.Joe discovers he has been dropped into a developing clash between the people who cared for him, and for whom he develops an affinity, and a military power from elsewhere on the planet, a power with designs on conquest. Unaware, Joseph Colsco has been poured into a crucible, where time and trials will transform him in ways he could never have imagined.

Book Synopsis The Magic of Éliphas Lévi by : Éliphas Lévi
Download or read book The Magic of Éliphas Lévi written by Éliphas Lévi and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-23 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presented here collection contains two of the most important books by Éliphas Lévi dedicated to his views on the essence of magic and the history of magical studies. Levi thinks that people regard magic erroneously and narrow it to a collection of tricks. On the contrary, magic is practicing the concentration of will, imagination, and psychic power to influence the minds of other people and the phenomena of reality. In The History of Magic, Lévi compares the magical components of different religious traditions and organizations, like pagan beliefs, Kabbalah, Christian Catholicism, Illuminati, and Freemasonry. He states that true magic is earthed under the parables, fables, and wonder stories with peculiarities in every division. Yet, they all have a common basis, which Lévi describes as the true magic which imparts real science. Levi's books greatly influenced the development of different occult and mystical movements in Europe and the United States, including the Theosophical Society of Helena Blavatsky.

Humanity's only chance rests with an unusual pair of allies: a young Jao prince, newly arrived to Terra to assume his duties, and a young human woman brought up amongst the Jao occupiers. But both are under pressure from the opposing forces¾a cruel Jao viceroy on one side, determined to drown all opposition in blood; a reckless human resistance on the other, perfectly prepared to shed it. Added to the mix is the fact that only by adopting some portions of human technology and using human sepoy troops can the haughty Jao hope to defeat the oncoming Ekhat attack¾and then only by fighting the battle within the Sun itself.

Download or read book Lost in the Sun written by Roy Gleason and published by Sports Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on extensive research, this book chronicles the story of the only person who, after playing successfully in baseball's Major Leagues, was drafted by the American military and served with honor and distinction in the Vietnam War. According to baseball and military records--including various accounts and articles--Roy Gleason is the only one. Why was this fantastic prospect the only man among thousands of others with major league experience sent into the front lines of combat in Southeast Asia? Perhaps more startling, how did those men avoid this fate? Even Gleason didn't know the answer for more than 40 years until a detailed four-year investigation shed light on the situation. What he learned was shocking. Gleason signed his first professional contract with what was reported to be a six-figure signing bonus. In today's market, that would be worth several million dollars. His career was remarkable and he boasts a career batting average of 1.000 (no one in MLB history, living or dead, matches this mark). He also enjoyed a brief career in film and television, highlighted in the book. Was it merely bad luck that placed Gleason into a war? Was it unfortunate circumstances? After being severely wounded, did he recover to play again? Why didn't he play more, especially with a perfect record at the plate? Roy Gleason's life is an endless list of questions that have gone unanswered--until now. Lost in the Sun is narrated from Gleason's point of view, and opens with a near-fatal experience he endured in a Vietnamese jungle. Providing a first-hand account, he shares tales of how the human mind works when death is all that surrounds it. Throughout each chapter, readers will meet the man wholeft potential success on the playing fields of Major League Baseball for the killing fields of Vietnam. This humble man recognizes, however, that he was only one of thousands who were sent so far away from home, to that place none of us wanted to go and that place where many never left and that place where we were all lost in the sun.
