Mistaken Enemy: A Zach Miller Adventure (Book 1) (The Zach Miller Adventures) by Dennis A Nehamen (41 Reviews)    Price verified 5 minutes ago

CONTROVERSIAL BOLD COMPELLING A Story Exploring Both Sides of Fate Free-lance writer Zach Miller doesn't mind going the extra mile for a good story, but 7,500 miles is a bit more than he bargained for. Nevertheless, when his closest friend fortuitously points the way to Israel, reluctantly he goes. In the caldron of intrigue, politics, and terrorism that is the modern Middle East, Zach uncovers a plot -- one that potentially threatens the lives of perhaps millions. His problem? There are two sides to every coin, and at least two sides in every war. But in this kind of conflict, information is a commodity, and misinformation, a weapon. Zach might be the unexpected emissary, the man with an answer, but sadly, neither side trusts him. Worse still, both sides will do anything in their power to stop him. Far from home, in a strange and at times incomprehensible land, Zach has no resources other than his own ingenuity... and a desire to be on the side of truth. That might be too tall an order in an encounter where both combatants are dead certain that there is only one truth: theirs. Mistaken Enemy, the first of the Zach Miller Stories, is a heart-racing account of hate, revenge and destiny, ultimately testing the boundaries of human love and will.

The Need for Zero: The Silent Foundation of Counting by Samson Penkar Price verified 25 minutes ago

Join me on an enthralling journey through time as we delve into the captivating history of the number zero-the humble yet revolutionary digit that has shaped the very essence of human civilization. "Zero: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Void" is a spellbinding exploration of how this enigmatic concept came to be, and how it profoundly influenced various aspects of human knowledge and culture. We begin by traveling back to the origins of counting, where our ancestors recognized the pressing need for a symbol to represent nothingness. From ancient Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilization, we witness the birth of zero as a symbol and its significance in laying the groundwork for advanced mathematical thinking. Venturing eastward, we uncover the Indian connection to zero, a pivotal moment in history that provided the world with a numeral system we still use today. As we move further, we encounter the intriguing presence of zero in ancient Greek mathematical pondering, which would later spark debates and breakthroughs during the Islamic Golden Age. Zero's impact on medieval Europe and its crucial role in shaping the realm of algebra are stories waiting to be unveiled. Through the scientific revolution, we witness zero's incorporation into the framework of modern science and its newfound importance in defining mathematical concepts. But zero's influence doesn't end with science; it extends into the realms of art, architecture, and even computing. We discover how zero's symbolism and beauty have inspired creativity across the ages, from intricate architectural designs to the very foundation of modern computers. Zero's involvement in infinity opens up fascinating philosophical discussions, while its enduring presence in popular culture makes it a part of our everyday lives, often in ways we might not even realize. As we contemplate the legacy of zero, we explore its connection to the future-how it continues to shape our understanding of the universe and even the very ...

The Obsidian Druid (The Age of Aikana Book One) by Caroline Barnard-Smith (Night Trident Press) (4 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Three monstrous tumari escaped the labyrinthine dungeon beneath the sea. One ripped apart the frozen homeland of the Asrai, staining the ice crimson with their blood. One blundered its way into the ancient forest of Nymed, and one rose in the city of Armoria, crushing buildings and bone beneath its great webbed feet. Only Dewer -- ageless High Lord of the city -- knows the truth behind the creatures' wanton destruction, and he hasn't trusted anyone with his secrets for over one hundred years. Gwin, a moon-blessed Asrai with the ability to freeze flesh, arrives in Armoria determined to raise an army against the man who slaughtered her family. When she discovers that city guard, Vanth, harbours magick of her own, she knows she would make a powerful ally, but Vanth would rather see Gwin hang than turn traitor. Vanth the Vile is many things: a skilled swordswoman, a debauched tavern crawler, and a Salt Sword fiercely loyal to the High Lord who saved her from a life on the streets. The one thing she never wanted to be was moon-blessed. In a city where those caught using magick without permission are left to rot in Dewer's Pit, embracing her burgeoning powers would be a dangerous gamble. The twin moons of Joria are turning. For a century, the night has shone silver in Mamai's cold light, but when Aikana comes to the fore, the world will dazzle beneath her violet glow. The Changing of the Moons heralds a time of unrest and upheaval, and Vanth has a devastating decision to make. The Obsidian Druid is book one of The Age of Aikana -- a dark epic fantasy set in a rich world of cut-throat cities, satyr warriors, rum-soaked taverns, scheming witches, and creeping forests besieged by the horrors that crawl in the shadows.

After his nerve is broken in Germany, the thought of genuine armed combat is enough to send him into a cold sweat of fear and shame. But this doesn't dissuade him from living off a false reputation so he can continue a life of casual affairs, wine, and parties, as he is seduced by the many vices of Rome. However his scandalous life is soon upset by a summons from the Emperor's wife. It ends his happy decadent life and returns him to Germany to assist the Roman legions in their greatest ever trial, and the events that will resound down in history, in the dark forests of the Teutoburg...

THURSDAY'S ORCHID by Robert Mitchell (46 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

Another thriller from the prize-winning author of The Crying Stones (The Lucinda Legacy). The killer was out there in the darkness, his movement along the deck hidden by the rigging as it cracked and trembled in the wind. When the waves had begun crashing into the stern of the ship early that morning, the salt spray blasting over the bulwarks, the hull grinding and tearing itself upon the coral reef, I had cursed myself and my stupidity. I should have known that smuggling fifty tonnes of marijuana from Australia to Singapore could not be done easily, that others would hear of it, that others would try to take the cargo from me. But had Mee Ling been the one to betray me? Had the night we'd spent together meant nothing? Or was the small teak box she'd left for me, a box containing one single delicate orchid resting on a fold of rich red silk, meant as warning that Cheh Wah Tek was not to be trusted?
