Book Description
CLAIRE: It has to be tonight. I've been perfecting my escape plan for the last two years, picturing it in my head as I go to sleep at night. I thought of everything. I had all the details in place. But then life took another swing at me yesterday and I knew I had to move the timetable up. Sliding out of the window, feet hit the ground and I run. One foot in front of the other. I don't know where I'm going, but anything will be better than this hell. JAX: The door to the clubhouse swings open with a loud bang and a woman comes stumbling in. At first, all I see is a pair of tight jeans and a huge black zip-up hooded sweatshirt covered in dirt and dried blood. Her chocolate hair is knotted on top of her head, complete with leaves and twigs sticking out. She has a wild, desperate look to her. I can tell she's about to pass out and I get to her just as she's collapsing. She sears me with her beautiful, haunted eyes. They look right down into my soul and rearrange something deep inside. My protective instincts all kick into high gear."Please don't let them get me." Her words send fire through my veins and make me cling to her even tighter.

Science Fiction Serials

ISBN: 1476604134
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Destination Moon; George Pal's 1950 Technicolor epic, is generally cited as the first noteworthy science fiction film. Usually ignored or casually dismissed in genre histories are the serials, the low-budget chapterplays exhibited as Saturday matinee fare and targeted almost exclusively at children. Lacking stars and top-notch writers or directors, the serials went largely unnoticed and unacknowledged by either critics or by the film industry. Yet serials were financially important to the Hollywood studios, and were often free to exploit risky or outlandish subjects that producers of "distinguished" movies would not touch. Influential serials such as The Phantom Empire (1935) and Flash Gordon (1936) finally brought science fiction themes to the big screen. Those serials and 29 others are exhaustively covered in this work, which provides complete cast and credit information along with plot descriptions and historical commentary for each serial. Video distributors (if available) are also listed.

Eight children from four wealthy families are kidnapped in New York City on New Year's Eve in 1885. Just when the children's parents had given up all hope of ever seeing their children again, they each received a letter from the kidnappers with two demands, which must be met in order to secure the release of their children. The first demand requires a large ransom to be delivered to the kidnappers at a place to be determined. The second demand requires that four Christian men, whom the kidnappers will choose, must deliver the ransom and if it's delivered by anyone else, all the children that were kidnapped will be killed. News of the large ransom spreads quickly throughout the United States, and every outlaw wants to get their hands on it before it gets to the kidnappers. Can the ransom get through to the kidnappers and save the children's lives, or will the kidnappers kill their young captives because the ransom was never delivered to them or was delivered by someone other than the four Christian men that were chosen to deliver it?

Messiah Or Antichrist?
Author: Anthony John Evenhuis
Publisher: University of Delaware Press
ISBN: 9780874136340
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
This new study is original in that, written by a person who is thoroughly familiar with the Judeo-Christian messianic tradition, it seeks to do justice to the strong religious thread that runs through all of Zola's work. In addition, Dr. Evenhuis's experience in the psychoanalytical approach to literature allows him to venture into intriguing speculations involving Zola's conscious or unconscious use of symbolism: the reader is invited to read between the lines of Zola's text in order to gain deeper insights into the author's inner world. Essentially, Messiah or Antichrist? examines the factors that may have induced Zola to embrace the messianic vision, and then systematically traces the rejection and eventual readopting of that myth in prose works that span a period of some forty years.
