Book Description
Vanson never wanted his gift for Stoneshaping to be used as a weapon of war. Convinced that the war's architect--his own brother--would rather see him dead than defiant, he changed his name and crossed the continent to escape his previous life. These days, his main concern is repaying his escalating gambling debts and Vanson is convinced he has everything under control, until a strange woman with a deadly sword rescues him from thugs sent by an impatient moneylender. She also tells him trackers from his homeland have nearly found him. He doesn't trust the swordswoman; she knows more than she should about his identity and the situation back home, and she won't say why she's helping him. Still, she can get him out of the city without being discovered. And she might have answers to the spiral of questions prompted by her sudden appearance. Going along with her just might be worth the risk.

Past Vulnerability
Author: Felix Riede
Publisher: Aarhus Universitetsforlag
ISBN: 8771840249
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Volcanic eruptions can affect everything--nature, wildlife, people. From the earliest times, human resilience has been tested by this most severe environmental hazard resulting in a variety of collective responses--from despair and helplessness to endurance, increased worship of the gods, and even mass migrations. Past Vulnerability breaks new ground by examining the histories of extreme environmental events, from the resent eruptions of Mount Merapi in Central Java to the prehistoric Toba supervolcanic eruption 74,000 years ago on the island of Sumatra. Experts from a broad and unconventional range of disciplines--from anthropology to literature studies and from archaeology to theology--discuss the impacts of volcanic eruptions in human history and prehistory. The book sets the scene for a 'palaeosocial volcanology' that complements and extends current approaches to volcanic hazards in the natural and social sciences by presenting historically informed and evidence-based analyses on how traditional societies dealt with these dangers--or failed to do so.
