The Door Into Fire

Publisher: Diane Duane
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
A sorcerous swordsmith desperate to achieve true power. His stubbornly nonmagical sword. His princely runaway lover. His hungry new fire elemental. Put them all together, and what can possibly go wrong?... Herewiss is the only man in centuries to possess the Power of the blue Flame, but he can’t use or control it — not even to help his friend and lover Freelorn, prince of Arlen, banished from his native land and pursued across the Middle Kingdoms by the usurpers' allies. Invoking perilous sorceries and the even more dangerous assistance of the fire elemental Sunspark, Herewiss manages to free Freelorn and his little band of followers from their pursuers. Together they flee eastward to seek brief refuge in the mysterious lands near the edge of the world they know. But now Herewiss faces a devastating choice. His time to master the blue Fire is running out. Should he abandon his fruitless search and join Freelorn in his fight to regain his kingdom? Or should he seek out the ancient keep in the Waste where countless doors lead into other worlds—among them, perhaps, the door that when opened will show Herewiss how to break through into the Power he must master or die?... The Door Into Fire, first novel set in Diane Duane's award-winning Middle Kingdoms universe, opens a fantastic saga of magic, adventure and love that has become a cult classic for its uniquely inclusive take on epic fantasy and its unforgettable characters. "Good strong stuff with the right light touch." (Terry Pratchett) "Expands the limits of the swords and sorcery genre. Exciting, magical, intelligent." (Publishers Weekly)

Direct Fire for Field Artillery
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Gunnery
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Field artillery weapons are designed primarily for long-range, indirect fire missions. But battle experience shows both that they can and must be used for the secondary purpose of direct fire on attacking tanks. Since tanks are the most important direct fire target for field artillery, this manual is devoted primarily to the fundamentals of antitank gunnery. These same methods, however, are equally applicable to direct fire on boats and ships in coast defense, to attacking foot troops or cavalry, concrete emplacements, or any other targets which may be seen from the gun position."--Page 1.
