—Küsi, kuidas saad v?ita ühe tunni aega— Maria O’Connore’il on palju suuremaid probleeme kui see fakt, et tema kell seiskus kell 3:57. Kui ta viib oma kella lahke parandaja juurde, ootamatult selgub, et ta sai kummalise auhinna – v?imaluse taaselada ühe tunni oma elust. Aga saatusel on ranged reeglid mineviku torkimise suhtes, sealhulgas range hoiatus, et ei tohi tekitada aja-paradoksi. Kas Maria saab teha rahu oma k?ige kahetsusv??rsema veaga siin maailmas?

All’alba dei tempi, due antichi avversari si scontrarono per ottenere il controllo della terra. Un uomo si innalzò a difesa dell’umanità. Un soldato il cui nome ricordiamo ancora oggi… . Il colonnello delle Forze Speciali Angeliche, Mikhail Mannuki’ili, si sveglia nella sua navicella spaziale precipitata, gravemente ferito, senza alcuna memoria del passato. La donna che gli ha salvato la vita, Ninsianna, ha delle abilità speciali che gli sembrano familiari, ma non riesce a ricordare il perché! . Le profezie del popolo di Ninsianna parlano di un campione alato, una Spada degli Dei che li avrebbe difesi dal Dio del Male. Mikhail insiste nel dire di non essere un semidio, ma la sua inspiegabile abilità nell’uccidere sembra indicare altrimenti. . Il Male sussurra ad un principe tetro. Una specie morente cerca di evitare l’estinzione. E due imperatori, trincerati dietro le loro antiche ideologie non riescono a vedere la più grande minaccia che incombe su di loro: questo racconto di fantascienza parla della battaglia più epica della storia dell’umanità, quella tra bene e male; del crollo di imperi e ideologie, e del più grande supereroe mai esistito al mondo, l’Arcangelo Mikhail. .CONTENUTO SPECIALE: include il breve racconto sulla storia all’origine della saga, Gli Eroi dell’Antichità. .“Una alternativa creativa alla storia di quelli che chiamiamo angeli. Si potrebbe definire… un incrocio fra Star Trek e i miti della creazione" — Recensione del lettore .“Mikhail si risveglia” come recita la copertina “mortalmente ferito nella sua navicella spaziale precipitata” … ma questo è solo l'inizio del suo dilemma" — Cape Cod Times .“Ho apprezzato moltissimo la fusione del genere fantastico con la pura fantascienza. Unirli è tutt'altro che semplice. L'autrice vi riesce senza creare incongruenze di alcun tipo…" —Recensione del lettore . Questo libro NON è a sfondo religioso! .Ordine di lettura della serie "La Spada degli Dei": —Gli Eroi dell’Antichità: Episodio 1x01 (prequel) —La Spada degli Dei (include Gli Eroi dell'Antichità) —Non c’è posto per gli Angeli Caduti —Frutto Proibito .

Love and Other Stories
Love and Other Stories
Anton Chekhov
¥8.09
This collection includes: LOVE, LIGHTS, A STORY WITHOUT AN END, MARI D'ELLE, A LIVING CHATTEL, THE DOCTOR, TOO EARLY!, THE COSSACK, ABORIGINES, AN INQUIRY, MARTYRS, THE LION AND THE SUN, A DAUGHTER OF ALBION, CHORISTERS, NERVES, A WORK OF ART, A JOKE, A COUNTRY COTTAGE, A BLUNDER, FAT AND THIN, THE DEATH OF A GOVERNMENT CLERK, A PINK STOCKING, and AT A SUMMER VILLA. According to Wikipedia: "Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860 – 1904) was a Russian short-story writer, playwright and physician, considered to be one of the greatest short-story writers in world literature. His career as a dramatist produced four classics and his best short stories are held in high esteem by writers and critics Chekhov practised as a doctor throughout most of his literary career: "Medicine is my lawful wife," he once said, "and literature is my mistress." Chekhov renounced the theatre after the disastrous reception of The Seagull in 1896; but the play was revived to acclaim in 1898 by Constantin Stanislavski's Moscow Art Theatre, which subsequently also produced Uncle Vanya and premiered Chekhov’s last two plays, Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard. These four works present a special challenge to the acting ensemble as well as to audiences, because in place of conventional action Chekhov offers a "theatre of mood" and a "submerged life in the text." Chekhov had at first written stories only for the money, but as his artistic ambition grew, he made formal innovations which have influenced the evolution of the modern short story. His originality consists in an early use of the stream-of-consciousness technique, later adopted by James Joyce and other modernists, combined with a disavowal of the moral finality of traditional story structure He made no apologies for the difficulties this posed to readers, insisting that the role of an artist was to ask questions, not to answer them."

Bret Harte

Classic western novel. According to Wikipedia: "Bret Harte (August 25, 1836[2] – May 6, 1902) was an American author and poet, best remembered for his accounts of pioneering life in California. He was born in Albany, New York. ... He moved to California in 1853, later working there in a number of capacities, including miner, teacher, messenger, and journalist. He spent part of his life in the northern California coast town now known as Arcata, then just a mining camp on Humboldt Bay. His first literary efforts, including poetry and prose, appeared in The Californian, an early literary journal edited by Charles Henry Webb. In 1868 he became editor of The Overland Monthly, another new literary magazine, but this one more in tune with the pioneering spirit of excitement in California. His story, "The Luck of Roaring Camp," appeared in the magazine's second edition, propelling Harte to nationwide fame... Determined to pursue his literary career, in 1871 he and his family traveled back East, to New York and eventually to Boston, where he contracted with the publisher of The Atlantic Monthly for an annual salary of $10,000, "an unprecedented sum at the time." His popularity waned, however, and by the end of 1872 he was without a publishing contract and increasingly desperate. He spent the next few years struggling to publish new work (or republish old), delivering lectures about the gold rush, and even selling an advertising jingle to a soap company. In 1878 Harte was appointed to the position of United States Consul in the town of Krefeld, Germany and then to Glasgow in 1880. In 1885 he settled in London. During the thirty years he spent in Europe, he never abandoned writing, and maintained a prodigious output of stories that retained the freshness of his earlier work. He died in England in 1902 of throat cancer and is buried at Frimley."

G. A. Henty
¥8.09
Historical novel, set during the Civil War. The Preface begins: "The Great War between the Northern and Southern States of America possesses a peculiar interest for us, not only because it was a struggle between two sections of a people akin to us in race and language, but because of the heroic courage with which the weaker party, with ill-fed, ill-clad, ill-equipped regiments, for four years sustained the contest with an adversary not only possessed of immense numerical superiority, but having the command of the sea, and being able to draw its arms and munitions of war from all the manufactories of Europe. Authorities still differ as to the rights of the case. The Confederates firmly believed that the States having voluntarily united, retained the right of withdrawing from the Union when they considered it for their advantage to do so." According to Wikipedia: "George Alfred Henty (8 December 1832 - 16 November 1902), referred to as G. A. Henty, was a prolific English novelist, special correspondent, and Imperialist born in Trumpington, Cambridgeshire, England. He is best known for his historical adventure stories that were popular in the late 19th century. His works include Out on the Pampas (1871), The Young Buglers (1880), With Clive in India (1884) and Wulf the Saxon (1895)."
