Book Description
Pan's life used to be very small. Work in her dad's body shop, sneak out with her friend Tara to go dancing, and watch the skies for freighter ships. It didn't even matter that Tara was a princess... until one day it very much did matter, and Pan had to say goodbye forever. Years later, when a charismatic pair of off-world gladiators show up on her doorstep, she finds that life might not be as small as she thought. On the run and off the galactic grid, Pan discovers the astonishing secrets of her neo-medieval world... and the intoxicating possibility of burning it all down.

Book Description
SYNOPSIS Cosmic Knights An impending unprecedented catastrophe striking planet Earth leads to another planet making contact to warn and to help. The details of the impending peril prove to be scary beyond what earth may ever have experienced. In the process cosmic reality is unraveled and Earth for the first time in the history of the planet comes in contact with a highly advanced civilization in the cosmos. On the way to appreciating and accepting the alarm indicators and falling in line for crisis management, the concerned regions of Earth exhibited vagaries of behavior. This subjected the coordinating team on earth and our cosmic guests to intense stressful periods. The Varasuryans are credited, for the patience, determination and steadfastness exhibited in fighting the peril faced by planet earth. In rendering help through the catastrophe faced by us, our cosmic neighbors give elaborate evidence of the state of advancements achieved by them. At the end of the help process, despite acute situational and time constraints they consent to a hurriedly arranged first meeting with Earthlings. Within the short time available the Varasuryans accommodate Earth’s request, make critical arrangements and descend down to earth for the epochal first meet between two planetary civilizations. At the meet the cosmic neighbors mind bogglingly astound and fascinate Earth beings by sharing their experiences of rendezvous with Earth over the last thousand years. Revelations of their societal structure, patterns and norms, scientific and technological advancements, as also their postulates on evolution spin a web of awe. So Earth can benefit from their advancements, the cosmic neighbors depart with promises and hope, for future and ongoing meetings. V.K.Rao

Book Description
A rich mosaic of diary entries and letters from Marilyn Monroe, Cesar Chavez, Susan Sontag, Albert Einstein, and many more, this is the story of Los Angeles as told by locals, transplants, and some just passing through. “Los Angeles is refracted in all its irreducible, unexplainable glory.”—Los Angeles Times The City of Angels has played a distinct role in the hearts, minds, and imaginations of millions of people, who see it as the ultimate symbol of the American Dream. David Kipen, a cultural historian and avid scholar of Los Angeles, has scoured libraries, archives, and private estates to assemble a kaleidoscopic view of a truly unique city. From the Spanish missionary expeditions in the early 1500s to the Golden Age of Hollywood to the strange new world of social media, this collection is a slice of life in L.A. through the years. The pieces are arranged by date—January 1st to December 31st—featuring selections from different decades and centuries. What emerges is a vivid tapestry of insights, personal discoveries, and wry observations that together distill the essence of the city. As sprawling and magical as the city itself, Dear Los Angeles is a fascinating, must-have collection for everyone in, from, or touched by Southern California. With excerpts from the writing of Ray Bradbury • Edgar Rice Burroughs • Octavia E. Butler • Italo Calvino • Winston Churchill • Noël Coward • Simone De Beauvoir • James Dean • T. S. Eliot • William Faulkner • Lawrence Ferlinghetti • Richard Feynman • F. Scott Fitzgerald • Allen Ginsberg • Dashiell Hammett • Charlton Heston • Zora Neale Hurston • Christopher Isherwood • John Lennon • H. L. Mencken • Anaïs Nin • Sylvia Plath • Ronald Reagan • Joan Rivers • James Thurber • Dalton Trumbo • Evelyn Waugh • Tennessee Williams • P. G. Wodehouse • and many more Advance praise for Dear Los Angeles “This book’s a brilliant constellation, spread out over a few centuries and five thousand square miles. Each tiny entry pins the reality of the great unreal city of Angels to a moment in human time—moments enthralled, appalled, jubilant, suffering, gossiping or bragging—and it turns out, there’s no better way to paint a picture of the place.”—Jonathan Lethem “[A] scintillating collection of letters and diary entries . . . an engrossing trove of colorful, witty insights.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
