Book Description
The Captain is a descendant of an advanced species that has left this galaxy. Before leaving, his father gave him advanced technology, extreme abilities, and a sentient ship for his home. The Captain had not met a species with more advanced technology until his encounter with the Zolins. When the equally advanced Zolins become a threat to his system, the Captain can no longer avoid the war and joins with the Collection. The Collection is a military organization and has over a hundred member species. They are at war with the Zolins because the Zolins are now expanding their territory and invading occupied systems. The Collection sends the Captain to the Earth system to surveil Zolin ships that have taken an interest in the system. While there, he walks many human minds and becomes intrigued with a human female. He transports to her room and tells her he is offering her the opportunity to be his companion. If she agrees, she will have a life longer than other humans and a life of adventure. He says he is also recruiting her to work with the Collection in defeating the Zolins. He will teach her the Zolin language so she understands what she hears after he has trained her to walk Zolin minds.

The Films of Akira Kurosawa, Third Edition, Expanded and Updated
Author: Donald Richie
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520341783
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
In an epilogue provided for his incomparable study of Akira Kurosawa (1910-1998), Donald Richie reflects on Kurosawa's life work of thirty feature films and describes his last, unfinished project, a film set in the Edo period to be called The Ocean Was Watching. Kurosawa remains unchallenged as one of the century's greatest film directors. Through his long and distinguished career he managed, like very few others in the teeth of a huge and relentless industry, to elevate each of his films to a distinctive level of art. His Rashomon—one of the best-remembered and most talked-of films in any language—was a revelation when it appeared in 1950 and did much to bring Japanese cinema to the world's attention. Kurosawa's films display an extraordinary breadth and an astonishing strength, from the philosophic and sexual complexity of Rashomon to the moral dedication of Ikiru, from the naked violence of Seven Samurai to the savage comedy of Yojimbo, from the terror-filled feudalism of Throne of Blood to the piercing wit of Sanjuro.
