No Surrender
Author: Hiroo Onoda
Publisher: Naval Institute Press
ISBN: 1612515649
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
In the spring of 1974, Second Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda of the Japanese army made world headlines when he emerged from the Philippine jungle after a thirty-year ordeal. Hunted in turn by American troops, the Philippine police, hostile islanders, and successive Japanese search parties, Onoda had skillfully outmaneuvered all his pursuers, convinced that World War II was still being fought and that one day his fellow soldiers would return victorious. This account of those years is an epic tale of the will to survive that offers a rare glimpse of man's invincible spirit, resourcefulness, and ingenuity. A hero to his people, Onoda wrote down his experiences soon after his return to civilization. This book was translated into English the following year and has enjoyed an approving audience ever since.

After angry Protestants tossed three representatives of the Holy Roman Empire out the window of the royal castle in Prague, world war spread from Bohemia with relentless abandon, drawing powers from Spain to Sweden into a nightmarish world of famine, disease, and seemingly unstoppable destruction.

Ocean
Author: Neil Azevedo
Publisher: Grove Press
ISBN: 9780802141965
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
Neil Azevedo has published poems in The Paris Review, The New Criterion, Prairie Schooner, and Image. His first collection, Ocean, introduces a shadowy world populated with dogs and snakes, suicide and children, sickness and satire, Satan and Christ, yet one doesn't feel soggy with introspection. Instead, wisdom emerges from these often personal and well-articulated lyrics; the reader is moved by the juxtaposition of savagery of subject and delicacy of touch. The verbal and often gothic brilliance of the language is stunning. It's not often that a young poet successfully embraces meter, finding a refined, velvet-toned style, and creates such a stellar debut.

Tommaso Santini, together with the Sanctum Consilium Solutionum, is called again to solve a mysterious case that undermines the roots of the Church.

A satanic sect made Belial the new Antichrist, thanks to a profane text called: The Dark Bible.

Once again, the Solver will find himself facing an unspeakable enemy. He and his team are given the task of finding who may be the man who embodies the son of Satan and to kill him before he can make it to his thirty-third year of life.
