The Rangeland Avenger
￥8.82
And maybe I ain't. Sinclair brushed the entire argument away into a thin mist of smoke. "Now, look here, Cold Feet, I'm about to go to sleep, and when I sleep, I sure sleep sound, taking it by and large. They's times when I don't more'n close one eye all night, and they's times when you'd have to pull my eyes open, one by one, to wake me up. Understand? I'm going to sleep the second way tonight. About eight hours of the soundest sleep you ever heard tell of."
La Spada degli Dei (Edizione Italiana): Libro 1 della saga “La Spada degli Dei”
￥8.09
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 .

Le Père Achille
￥8.82
"La mère Achille quitte son ouvrage, la fenêtre où elle était assise, et se dispose à mettre son couvert. L'homme va monter pour déjeuner. Il travaille là tout près dans ces grands ateliers vitrés qu'on aper?oit encombrés de pièces de bois, et où grincent du matin au soir les instruments des scieurs de long… La femme va et vient de la chambre à la cuisine. Tout est soigné, tout reluit dans cet intérieur d'ouvrier. Seulement la nudité des deux petites pièces est plus frappante à ce jour éclatant du cinquième étage. On voit des cimes d'arbres, les buttes Chaumont tout en haut, et ?à et là de longues cheminées de briques noircies au bord, toujours actives. Les meubles sont cirés, frottés. Ils datent du mariage, comme ces deux bouquets de fruits en verre qui ornent la cheminée. On n'a rien acheté depuis, parce que, pendant que la femme tirait courageusement son aiguille, l'homme dépensait ses journées dehors. Tout ce qu'elle a pu faire, ?'a été de soigner, d'entretenir le peu qu'ils avaient."

Simply Dirac
￥65.32
Paul Dirac?(1902–1984) was a brilliant mathematician and a 1933 Nobel laureate whose work ranks alongside that of Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton. Although not as well known as his famous contemporaries Werner Heisenberg and Richard Feynman, his influence on the course of physics was immense. His landmark book,?The Principles of Quantum Mechanics, introduced that new science to the world and his “Dirac equation” was the first theory to reconcile special relativity and quantum mechanics. Dirac held the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position also occupied by such luminaries as Isaac Newton and Stephen Hawking. Yet, during his 40-year career as a professor, he had only a few doctoral students due to his peculiar personality, which bordered on the bizarre. Taciturn and introverted, with virtually no social skills, he once turned down a knighthood because he didn’t want to be addressed by his first name. Einstein described him as “balancing on the dizzying path between genius and madness.” In?Simply Dirac, author?Helge Kragh?blends the scientific and the personal and invites the reader to get to know both Dirac the quantum genius and Dirac the social misfit. Featuring cameo appearances by some of the greatest scientists of the 20th century and highlighting the dramatic changes that occurred in the field of physics during Dirac’s lifetime, this fascinating biography is an invaluable introduction to a truly singular man.

And “Air of Authority” shows what happens when you twist around words. As you read these stories, you will also discover that many of them involve some degree of revenge. Because, after all, what is revenge but twisting someone’s own actions back on them? And as always, each story in the Read on the Run series of anthologies is short, to suit your busy lifestyle.
