![]() ![]() Valeria, the senator's daughter, makes her way from Rome with an escort and marries Marcus, the awkward, shy, indecisive aristocratic commander he's more of a scholar than a warrior and much, much older than she. I best liked the presentation of the Celtic culture and culture clash between the Celts and the Romans: free and open versus regimented and inflexible. The latter is the author's explanation for the 'Barbarian Conspiracy.' The whole story consists of Draco's interviews with various players in the story, interspersed with his musings on what he is told, his speculations, and the actual plot. Inspector Draco from Rome is tasked to find out the circumstances of the disappearance of a Senator's daughter who has married the praefectus of the Petrianis cavalry fortress and also why a horde of barbarians have attacked Hadrian's Wall recently. ![]() To be honest, I didn't like rating this Roman book lower than most others I've rated but I felt there was enough justification. ![]() I love this historical period but this book fell way short of my expectations. ![]() ![]() ![]() and I want to give everything my all and do the best that I possibly can - but when I do that, I run out of steam and mess things up!

The rest lived to spend years contradicting each other’s accounts of their voyage. They froze in terror at the bottom of the world, tasted the excess of tropical paradise, slaughtered and were slaughtered by fierce savages in an uncharted archipelago, camped out on the rim of the world’s most massive volcano, braved one of the world’s most treacherous coastal inlets. Six sailing vessels and 346 men set out in 1838 for a remote region few had ventured. In revisiting the long-forgotten South Seas Exploring Expedition, the author has taken on perhaps the ultimate in fact-based sea stories. The harrowing survival tale that garnered Philbrick a National Book Award ( In the Heart of the Sea, 2000) seems almost a tune-up for this saga of wind and wave. ![]() ![]() ![]() Like a coin toss that keeps coming up heads, iterated titles suggest an occult lucky streak bound to break. For this latest collection, he made one big choice at the outset: all the sonnets share the same title, “American Sonnet for My Past and Future Assassin.” This repetition is superstitious, a tribute paid to the imagined assassin, as if the poems can buy back time in fourteen-line reprieves. ![]() In his five books, he has perfected a sort of poem where wild jams carom inside arbitrary formal boundaries. Hayes, who is forty-six, won the 2010 National Book Award and is a professor at N.Y.U. He freelances inside a form he calls “part music box, part meat grinder,” fashioning a diary of survival during a period when black men are in constant danger. A former college basketball star, he treats poetry like a timed game, a theatre for dramatic last-minute outcomes. ![]() The day after the 2016 Presidential election, Terrance Hayes wrote the first of the seventy sonnets collected in his new book, “ American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassin.” Time had been altered in some baleful and uncertain way the sonnet offered an alternative unit of measurement, at once ancient, its basic features unchanged for centuries, and urgent, its fourteen lines passing at a brutal clip. ![]() ![]() ![]() Çerez Bildiriminde açıklandığı üzere, Çerez Tercihleri sayfasını ziyaret ederek seçimlerinizi dilediğiniz zaman değiştirebilirsiniz. ![]() Bu çerezleri reddetmek, daha ayrıntılı seçimler yapmak veya daha fazla bilgi almak için "Çerezleri Özelleştir" öğesine tıklayın.

In studying the leaders who've had the greatest influence in the world, Simon Sinek discovered that they all think, act, and communicate in the exact same way - and it's the complete opposite of what everyone else does. It was their natural ability to start with why that enabled them to inspire those around them and to achieve remarkable things. ![]() People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why. Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and moer profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? ![]() ![]() ![]() "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

James Bond is dispatched by M to stop this inventive assassination and the chapter in which Bond receives his briefing from M and Bill Tanner has Ian Fleming’s own writing seamlessly intertwined with Horowitz’s own. This section of the novel is inspired by an unpublished Fleming short-story, Murder On Wheels - also the title of Chapter (Double-0) Seven - in which Fleming places real-life motor-racing legend Stirling Moss as the target of SMERSH. Intelligence received indicates that a famous British motor racing champion, Lancy Smith, will be the target of a SMERSH operative during the Grand Prix at Nürburgring, Germany. ![]() These opening events serve as a precursor to the main storyline involving SMERSH’s attempts to raise the prestige of the Soviet Union, whether it’s in the glamourous world of Grand Prix racing or the space race. ![]() It also shows Bond a little less sharp when on home soil, something that may be his undoing before the adventure is finished. The inclusion of Pussy Galore at the start of the story echoes Fleming’s From Russia With Love (1957) where we find out the fate of Tiffany Case, and gives closure to that particular relationship. ![]() Trigger Mortis positions itself within the original continuity of Ian Fleming's series a mere two weeks after the events of Goldfinger (1959). Having read all forty continuation novels, I declare Anthony Horowitz’s Bond debut to be the best of them all. ![]() |
