Book Description
When General Zardaq learned that Arthur Templar’s parents discovered a method to control an explosive fusion reaction, he believed he could turn it into a powerful weapon. Zardaq had ways of weakening people and getting what he wanted. Arthur knew Zardaq would kill his parents if they did not cooperate, and he would certainly kill them when they were no longer useful to him. Arthur did not know it, but he had become a prize Zardaq could use to blackmail Arthur’s parents into giving him what he wanted. They could die if Arthur tried to rescue them, and they would die if he did not. Arthur had no option. He would have to dimension jump to the war-torn planet Serpo. Arthur had no idea how he would rescue his parents. He encountered riddles, dangerous creatures, and challenges. He received unexpected help from a dead librarian and a group of rebels. Eventually, he heard terrible news about his parents and was sure that he would have to sacrifice his own life to save them. Arthur knew he would have to fight Zardaq alone, even though he knew he couldn’t win. The outcome of their battle would decide not only his fate but also that of his parents, planet Serpo, and Zardaq’s next target, Elderberry Valley. Was Arthur prepared for a life-or-death struggle and ready to die for everything he valued? The stakes were high–his parents’ lives, Serpo, Earth, and himself?

Author: Lois Martin
Publisher: Robinson
ISBN: 1849018049
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
The witch in history is very different from the image of Harry Potter or the modern day Pagan. A Brief History of Witchcraft sets out to explore how the witch phenomenon began in medieval Europe and how it has continued to haunt us for the next 500 years. In her fascinating history Lois Martin's looks at how folk tradition and religion clashed with devastating effect - one of the greatest conspiracy theories of all and the most brutal regime of persecution ever seen. From early theories of the Devil, a new cosmology of demons and dark arts evolved; deluded old women were transformed into instruments of evil. This culminated in the Witch craze of the 16th and 17th century, which may have claimed the lives of up to 40,000 people.

The Real Messiah
Author: Stephan Huller
Publisher: Watkins Media Limited
ISBN: 1780283423
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
Highly controversial but impeccably researched, The Real Messiah explodes the myth that Jesus was the long-prophesied Messiah of the Jewish nation. Indeed, it argues that Jesus never claimed that role but thought of himself as herald to the true Messiah: Marcus Julius Agrippa, the last King of the Jews and Jesus’ contemporary. It was he who truly founded what became known as Christianity, and wanted to build a faith to which anyone could aspire. Though Marcus Agrippa was initially successful, with the passing of time those in charge of the new faith capitulated to the whims of successive Roman Emperors and centered their religion on Jesus instead.

Blood, Iron, and Gold

ISBN: 1586488511
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
The opening of the world's first railroad in Britain and America in 1830 marked the dawn of a new age. Within the course of a decade, tracks were being laid as far afield as Australia and Cuba, and by the outbreak of World War I, the United States alone boasted over a quarter of a million miles. With unrelenting determination, architectural innovation, and under gruesome labor conditions, a global railroad network was built that forever changed the way people lived. From Panama to Punjab, from Tasmania to Turin, Christian Wolmar shows how cultures were enriched, and destroyed, by one of the greatest global transport revolutions of our time, and celebrates the visionaries and laborers responsible for its creation.
