"The traitor will not see another night." He'd once been Kallen's favored commander. Ronath the Armorer was a seasoned warrior, the strongest demon after Malkom. "Ronath will pay for this once I get free," Kallen grated. The guards shoved Kallen and Malkom to their knees before the grave. Without fail, he figured his way out of seemingly impossible predicaments. Kallen muttered, "Can you see a way out of this?" those whispers of the Scarba - the abominations. In the back, a black-robed sorcerer worked at a vial-cluttered table. More guards lined the walls, with swords at the ready. Ahead, a pair of winded demon slaves stood beside a freshly dug grave. Rare crystal and glass adorned the room.Īt once, Malkom began analyzing every inch of the area for an escape. Though the floor was of packed earth, the walls were hung with rich silks and tapestries. But his bonds were mystical Malkom was unable to teleport or break free.Īt the base of the stairs lay a subterranean chamber with an ornate throne on a dais. "The rumors are likely untrue," he lied, putting up a renewed resistance as the dozen guards forced them down a flight of stone steps. Malkom Slaine gazed over at his best friend, Prince Kallen the Just, wishing he had a better answer for him, anything to ease the apprehension in Kallen's eyes.Īs the vampire guards shoved them along, deeper into their stronghold, Malkom suspected death might be welcome before the night was out. This remarkable volume, written by a physicist who mingled in Einstein's scientific circle, forms a timeless and classic biography of the towering figure of twentieth-century science. Pais also fills many gaps in what we know of Einstein's life - his interest in philosophy, his concern with Jewish destiny, and his opinions of great figures from Newton to Freud. The profound transformation Einstein's ideas effected on the physics of the turn of the century is here laid out for the serious reader. Pais examines the formulation of Einstein's theories of relativity, his work on Brownian motion, and his response to quantum theory with authority and precision. His biography combines a profound understanding of Einstein's work with personal recollections from their years of acquaintance, illuminating the man through the development of his scientific thought. In this new major work Abraham Pais, himself an eminent physicist who worked alongside Einstein in the post-war years, traces the development of Einsteins. The late Abraham Pais was a distinguished physicist turned historian who knew Einstein both professionally and personally in the last years of his life. Subtle is the Lord is widely recognized as the definitive scientific biography of Albert Einstein. 'Subtle is the Lord -': the science and the life of Albert Einstein After all, no one survives the end of the world alone. The longer I look, the more I begin to see the man behind the harsh words and unkempt beard.Īs reluctant as he is to keep me, Joshua just might need me. At a glance, he seems to be nothing more than an off-kilter backwoods prepper with a grudge against humanity. It’s hard to earn his trust and even harder to keep it. With a cabin, a farm, and a lifetime of survival skills, Joshua was the perfect companion for the apocalypse. Death was on my heel when I landed at the feet of an unwilling savior. That hope was quickly snuffed out, leaving me all alone in the world. I fled the west coast with a small group, chasing a sliver of hope. There was power rumored in the east, settlements with wind energy that were still thriving amidst the chaos. One minute there was Instagram and ice cream and the next, nothing. What I didn’t expect was that I would change into someone starving, filthy, and prone to sleeping tangled in blackberry bushes to protect myself from predators of the animal and human variety. When I started college in Seattle, I expected that I would change. Judged by contemporary critics to be as provocative as Zola and Ibsen, Gissing produced an intensely modern work as the issues it raises remain the subject of contemporary debate. With narrative detachment, Gissing portrays contemporary society’s blatant ambivalence towards its own period of transition. Set in a grimy, fog-ridden London, Gissing’s odd women range from the idealistic, financially self-sufficient Mary Barfoot to the Madden sisters who struggle to subsist in low paying jobs and little chance for joy. Unlike the “ New Woman” novels of the era which challenged the idea that the unmarried woman was superfluous, Gissing satirizes that image and portrays women as odd and marginal in relation to an ideal. The Odd Women is a novel of social realism that reflects the major sexual and cultural issues of the late nineteenth century. Forced into poverty by the sudden death of their father, they lead lives of quiet desperation in a genteel boarding house in London. Virginia and Alice Madden are odd women’, growing old alone in Victorian England with no prospect of finding love. Not that I really disagree with the author, excepting, perhaps, areas revolving around COVID-19 and the ensuing politics. Will Witt arms Gen Zs and millennials with the knowledge and skills to combat the leftist narrative they hear every day.ĭespite my conservative leanings I didn’t completely connect with this book. So many young people in America want to stand up for their beliefs in their classrooms, at their jobs, with their friends, or on social media, but they don’t have the tools to do so. In How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies, political commentator and media personality Will Witt will give young conservatives the ammunition they need to fight back. Almost every Hollywood actor, musician, media personality, and role model for young people in America rejects conservative values, and gen Zs and millennials are quick to regurgitate these viewpoints without developing their own opinions on issues. Most young people have never even heard of conservative values from someone their age, and if they do, the message is often bland and outdated. Popular culture in America today is dominated by the left. Political commentator and media personality Will Witt gives young conservatives the ammunition they need to fight back against the liberal media. Even so, Marcella has her share of distinguished suitors, from a cutthroat contender for the throne to a politician’s son who swears that someday he will be Emperor.

Elegant and ambitious, Cornelia embodies the essence of the perfect Roman wife. The Year of Four Emperors will change everything–especially the lives of two sisters with a very personal stake in the outcome….

Brief Summary of Book: Daughters of Rome (The Empress of Rome, #1) by Kate Quinn One day, Psyche wanted to go home to visit her family, but her husband told her that she could never come back if she left. During their time together, she got pregnant, a fact nobody noticed until a few months later. Eros said he couldn't show her his identity because then their marriage would fall apart and she'd suffer terribly, but the two befriended each other. He appeared before Psyche as an invisible being, claiming that he was a truly terrifying beast. He had Zephyros, the West Wind, abduct Psyche, and take her to his palace. Eros agreed to his mother's wishes, however, he fell in love with Psyche instead. Jealous that they were worshiping a mortal girl instead of her, his mother ordered him, the god of love, to make Psyche fall in love with a hideous creature. I have mixed feelings regarding this sequel. The Baudelaire still noble enough as ever, but suffering internally again after being forced to use despicable tactics, such as disguising, harpooning and *accidentally* torching the place and wondering just how different they truly are to dear Countie Olaf. And let’s not forget Charles, Sir, Nero, Hugo, Colette, Kevin and several others, who were also there. And HATED Carmelita Spats, an obnoxious ballplaying cowboy superhero soldier pirate. Also HATED Esme, a backstabbing girlfriend who likes to wear ridiculous lettuce bikini and spoil bratty stepdaughters. Totally HATED Olaf, treacherous villain that likes to quarrel with loyal girlfriends and harpoon defenseless victims. LIKED Dewey some, despite his short lived role. This is so… disappointing?! LOVED seeing Justice Strauss again, and Jerome Squalor two past caretakers that have grown since their last appearance and now actively fight to help the orphans. VFD still means Volunteers Fire Department! Wow. A brief respite of stagnation takes place until Olaf arrives at the hotel and, I hate to sound repetitive but, calamity strikes again. The orphans then start working as flâneurs to secretly gather intel, and they encounter almost every single secondary character from the past. After leaving Gorgonian Grotto and Fiona the mycologist behind, the self-sustaining Baudelaire travel to Hotel Denouement the last meeting place of the secretive VFD during their travel they meet Dewey, a sub-sub-librarian and secret caretaker.
