Awakened
Author: C.J. Anderson
Publisher: C.J. Anderson
ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
Seventeen-year-old Dru Sanjay's family is part of an organization with operatives secretly placed around the globe to protect the planet from extraterrestrials. Moving is just part of the job. But this time it's different. To help Dru get control of his ability to shift, they have ended up in the middle of nowhere, U.S.A. and Dru hates it there with a passion! Until he sees her. He takes one look at her and feels a jolt of recognition. He can't explain it, but he feels like she has always been and will always be his. The attraction is instant and primal. But getting close to her could put her in danger. Is he willing to take that chance? Nothing extraordinary ever happens in Alayna West's sucky, predictable life. So, when she heads out to the first day of her senior year, she hardly expects to be approached by the hottest guy she's ever seen, much less feel drawn to him, like an imaginary cord is pulling them together. Meeting Dru has already turned her boring life upside-down, but when they are attacked by a mythical creature in the woods, Alayna learns that reality is truly stranger than fiction. Dru uses superpowers to fight the creature and things get even crazier when Alayna saves Dru's life with awakening powers of her own. Suddenly, the world around her makes no sense. Torn between her predictable life and the strange new possibilities, Alayna realizes that she must discover the truth about herself before she is ready to follow her heart. Just when Alayna thinks she's finally making sense out of the world, a dead body shows up and the police connect it back to Dru. Alayna finds herself questioning everything she has ever believed in again. But, to save herself and those she cares about, she must find the courage to do something that she would never have expected herself capable of doing. In the end, will the invisible thread that binds Dru and Alayna tear them apart - or will it become their salvation? HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR LOVERS OF SCI-FI, FANTASY, PARANORMAL, AND ROMANCE. THIS ONE IS SURE TO LEAVE YOU WANTING MORE.

Morning and Evening Talk
Author: Naguib Mahfouz
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0307455068
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
From the Nobel Prize–winning author of The Cairo Trilogy and "a storyteller of the first order” (Vanity Fair) comes an epic novel that portrays five generations of one sprawling family against the upheavals of two centuries of modern Egyptian history. Set in Cairo, Morning and Evening Talk traces three related families from the arrival of Napoleon to the 1980s, through short character sketches arranged in alphabetical order. This highly experimental device produces a kind of biographical dictionary, whose individual entries come together to paint a vivid portrait of life in Cairo from a range of perspectives. The characters include representatives of every class and human type and as the intricate family saga unfolds, a powerful picture of a society in transition emerges. This is a tale of change and continuity, of the death of a traditional way of life and the road to independence and beyond, seen through the eyes of Egypt's citizens. Naguib Mahfouz's last chronicle of Cairo is both an elegy to a bygone era and a tribute to the Egyptian spirit.

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 561
Book Description
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are devices that provide a fast, low-cost way for embedded system designers to customize products and deliver new versions with upgraded features, because they can handle very complicated functions, and be reconfigured an infinite number of times. In addition to introducing the various architectural features available in the latest generation of FPGAs, The Design Warrior's Guide to FPGAs also covers different design tools and flows.This book covers information ranging from schematic-driven entry, through traditional HDL/RTL-based simulation and logic synthesis, all the way up to the current state-of-the-art in pure C/C++ design capture and synthesis technology. Also discussed are specialist areas such as mixed hardward/software and DSP-based design flows, along with innovative new devices such as field programmable node arrays (FPNAs). Clive "Max" Maxfield is a bestselling author and engineer with a large following in the electronic design automation (EDA)and embedded systems industry. In this comprehensive book, he covers all the issues of interest to designers working with, or contemplating a move to, FPGAs in their product designs.
