Book Description
The entire METAL ANGELS adventure in one COMPLETE box-set! (Parts 1-4) What are they really hiding at the Facility? And is it worth dying for? The Facility is a high-security compound in the middle of b*tt-f*ck nowhere. It's filled to the brim with dangerous secrets. And it's the place sisters Kira and Blake Beckworth call home. But one phone call is about to change their lives forever. When Kira is duped into baby-sitting one of the volatile, ultra-classified projects the Facility is infamous for, it sets off a chain of events that will threaten far more than Friday night plans. The project has the face of an angel. His name is Azrael. But what is he exactly? Human? Android? Or something else entirely? And what the hell is Kira supposed to do with him? She knows her way around a vodka bottle, really well....but a mute, vacant-eyed, albeit sublimely beautiful maybe-man? No clue. A pity Kira's never been good at saying no to her sister. Blake is Azrael's creator, and one of the few human genuises at the Facility. But it won't be long before Kira wishes she'd never taken that call. Never stepped foot in the deepest levels of the Facility. Because the truth of who Azrael is...and what it means to keep him safe...could destroy not only Kira's life, but life itself. Metal Angels (The Facility Files) is fast-paced science fantasy with lots of sex, swearing and violence. Buckle Up. **Language Warning** - if you don't like copious amounts of swearing, then perhaps this one isn't for you. Kira knows all the words and likes to use them. She enjoys it almost as much as sex. So be warned, sexual content contained in this book!

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
The Facility holds many dangerous secrets. All of them are worth killing for. The Facility's most classified asset has just been dumped on Kira's doorstep. Azrael. He's undeniably beautiful to look at, like a sculpture brought to life. But what is he exactly? Human? Android? Or something else entirely? And what the hell is she supposed to do with him? He dribbles when he drinks, can't string a sentence together, and stares at the world like he's seeing it for the first time. Baby-sitting is not a job she's remotely interested in. Kira's got big Friday night plans, and they all involve vodka. But Azrael's creator is desperate to get him out of the high-security compound. And Kira's not about to say no to her own sister, one of the geniuses behind the Facility's astonishing tech. No matter what you hear, Kira, or what you are told...do not come back. Not exactly reassuring words. Especially when Kira knows who her sister works alongside at the Facility. They aren't the type you mess with. And you definitely don't steal their toys. Azrael had better be worth it. Like, saving the world, kind of worth it. Because this sure as hell feels like one favour that could get a girl killed. Metal Angels (The Facility Files) is fast-paced science fantasy with lots of sex, swearing and violence. Buckle Up. **Language Warning** - if you don't like copious amounts of swearing, then perhaps this one isn't for you. Kira knows all the words and likes to use them.

The reign of paper files would seem to be over once files are reduced to the status of icons on computer screens, but Vismann's book, which examines the impact of the file on Western institutions throughout history, shows how the creation of order in medieval and early modern administrations makes its returns in computer architecture.

ISBN: 1476609586
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 486
Book Description
In the 1990s alone, more than 400 works on angels were published, adding to an already burgeoning genre. Throughout the centuries angels have been featured in, among others, theological works on scripture; studies in comparative religions; works on art, architecture and music; philological studies; philosophical, sociological, anthropological, archeological and psychological works; and even a psychoanalytical study of the implications that our understanding of angels has for our understanding of sexual differences. This bibliography lists 4,355 works alphabetically by author. Each entry contains a source for the reference, often a Library of Congress call number followed by the name of a university that holds the work. More than 750 of the entries are annotated. Extensive indexes to names, subjects and centuries provide further utility.

Book Description
MAN DROUGHT ENDS! Angels and demons fall into the arms of love-deprived women in a sleepy Chicago neighborhood. Only two women get cheated, when one angel and one demon escape and find refuge with a team of sex demons. But they're not safe yet! Those two women are hunting them. Keek’s self-esteem problems have led to a certain lifestyle with men. Angel Jioffriel is innocent in every way until he stumbles into Keek’s arms, but he’s judgmental about her lifestyle. Mella is pickier than Keek. When she meets demon Mutmumtazarek, for the first time she sees past a guy’s flaws—the six inch claws, the bat wings, and other demonic attributes—to the frightened beast inside. Can the sex demons teach Jeff and Mutt enough to satisfy the women they love? It’s raining angels and demons!

An Analysis of Steven Pinker's The Better Angels of Our Nature
Author: Joulia Smortchkova
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351352962
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Reasoning is the critical thinking skill concerned with the production of arguments: making them coherent, consistent, and well-supported; and responding to opposing positions where necessary. The Better Angels of Our Nature offers a step-by-step class in precisely these skills. Author Steven Pinker's central thesis is simple: mankind has become increasingly less violent over the centuries, and will continue to do so. Pinker is aware, though, that many people instinctively believe the opposite, and Better Angels is devoted to marshalling data to support and illustrate this central argument, as well as a series of secondary arguments about how and why humanity has become less violent. Pinker's interpretative skills – understanding the meaning of the complex evidence from history – are also on display throughout, as he tackles the ambiguities of his data, the problems it presents, and the viable inferences one can draw from it.

Book Description
In this Twilight meets X-Men young adult urban fantasy romance novel, how can teenage romance and friendship bloom in a world full of paranormal chaos and a looming zombie apocalypse? FRIENDS — That’s what Hope Danielles, a dorky teen orphan, always wanted to have, and thought she had finally found, after a stroke of destiny led her to meet Ash (a mysterious guy with black and white wings), Dria (a royal vampire) and Liekos (a lone werewolf) — all of whom are part-angel, part-human beings called eliouds, just like her. Brought together by an unfortunate series of events that placed their lives in peril, Hope, Ash, Dria and Liekos decided to work together to unlock the mystery of who was behind all those attacks. To do so, they had to go invisible as they investigate the only lead they have — a certain Colonel who led the attempted werewolf massacre of the Gray pack. But as they dig deeper in order to put the puzzle pieces together, they uncover not only a trail of breadcrumbs that lead to something much bigger than they thought, but they also unravel the secret feelings they seem to have for one another. Will their hidden emotions hinder them from becoming an effective team? Can the circumstances that brought them together even possibly nurture friendships? Will they be able to overcome their differences and feelings for the sake of others who need their help?

Angels of Vengeance

Publisher: Del Rey
ISBN: 0345502949
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 530
Book Description
“A seamless fusion of alternate history, postapocalyptic fiction, and espionage-fueled thriller.”—Publishers Weekly When an inexplicable wave of energy slams into North America, the world is plunged into turmoil—as wars erupt, borders vanish, and the great and powerful fall. Against this dramatic backdrop, three very different women navigate the chaos. Deep in a South American jungle, special agent Caitlin Monroe will stop at nothing to discover how a master terrorist escaped a secret detention center in French Guadeloupe to strike a fatal blow in New York City. Sofia Peiraro, a grieving teenager trying to rebuild her life in Kansas City, is drawn back to Texas by a vicious murder. And in the fashionable bars and boutiques of Darwin, the seething, growing freeport in Australia’s deep north, the British-born aristocrat-turned-smuggler Lady Julianne Balwyn hides a pistol in the small of her lovely back. She is hunting for the man who is hunting her. As these women fight for survival, justice, and revenge, humanity itself struggles toward its better angels—and to purge its worst demons. “Birmingham knows how to write action. . . . I enjoy world building stories as well as post-apocalyptic tales. This is definitely a little of both.”—Bill Lawhorn, SFRevu “A rollicking ride . . . fast-paced and thought-provoking.”—The Sun-Herald (Sydney, Australia)
