Rorkrüün chronicles the journey of a young boy from insecure boyhood to heroic manhood, with mythical touches interlaced into his adventure. In Iceland, at the time of the first millennium, he finds a secret cavern. He and his friend decide to explore it. Becoming trapped inside, they roam through a myriad of tunnels, looking for a way out. He finds a magical talisman and discovers that when he wears it, he develops mystic powers. The two boys find a Viking ship, which blocks their way. The leader of the Vikings invites them to join his crew on a trading voyage, and they accept. During the trip, they are driven off course by a terrible storm and shipwrecked on the shores of an unknown land... the north coast of what is now known as Labrador, inhabited by a large band of friendly Inuk, (early Eskimos). The Inuk help to save what is left of the ship. The shaman of the Inuk creates many conflicts. Various confrontations take place. After spending a year in this strange land, they leave for Iceland on their repaired ship. On the way, further conflicts take place and our hero again shows his bravery.

For adults: A fast moving story set in a world of changing scenes and high adventure from Iceland to pre-discovered Labrador. For seniors: An enticing story reminiscent of fondly remembered youth with all its magic and promise of fulfillment.

Gyrfalcon
Author: Norman Barichello
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525551043
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Gyrfalcons and humans have shared a remarkable relationship since prehistoric times. These extraordinary arctic falcons have been revered, coveted as an item of commerce, persecuted, and enjoyed as a spectacle of sport for at least ten thousand years. Today, climate change has brought new challenges, with habitat in the far north changing rapidly as natural cycles begin to break down. Drawn from over thirty years of study and observation, this in-depth study provides a comprehensive view of the gyrfalcon’s place in the arctic ecosystem, including their inextricable link to their primary pray, the ptarmigan, and their antagonistic relationship with golden eagles. It explores the connection the bird has had with humanity in both legend and practice, and the challenges it faces as its habitat continues to change. This definitive look at the gyrfalcon shows us both sides of the majestic bird: the master of its domain and a threatened species facing an uncertain future.

Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
In the year 2089, Earth had experienced a rapid shift in political and technological developments. Reported sightings of UFOs and alleged human abductions had reached such an alarming rate that governments decided to remove national boundaries and unite as one planet under one leader. The new government, the United Nations of Earth, made space exploration and defense of the planet its top priority. Journeyer was one of the first ships sent into space to find new discoveries and above all the search for sentient/intelligent life and to open peaceful negotiations. Prior to its recall and decommission, Journeyer was captured by the Ubides, an alien race of the highest intellect and an ally of the Derths, a carnivorous alien race with ever expanding territory. The Journeyer's captain, Drew Cage, was forcibly taken for a reason. Meanwhile other crew members, like Eva Cusping and Enrico Dalchez, sent to a planet to restore lost communication satellites will be caught between warring kingdoms. Captain Drew Cage and Eva Cusping will learn something about themselves that will make them question their existence and their beliefs, leading one to anger and rage while giving the other enlightenment. Both will undergo a transformation that will set them on course to good and evil in an intergalactic war where the survival of the human race and other life-forms is no guarantee. They will encounter allies and enemies as they realize some questions you may not always want answered: (1) Are we alone in the universe? (2) Is there a god? (3) What does the future hold? Do you really want to know?
