Key of Cortes By: L. Sparklingwater With this, her second novel, Key of Cortes, L. Sparklingwater has once again created a riveting and totally engrossing narrative. This time the locale is Mexico, on the eve of the date, according to the Mayan Calendar, when the world would come to an end. The world does not come to an end, of course, but the drama leading up to this moment is quickly replaced by a more compelling one, when Laura, the story’s protagonist, finds herself in the possession of an ancient key that will unlock a vast treasure over five hundred years old. The problem for Laura is staying alive long enough to locate the treasure. A lot of other people want that key, and some of them will stop at nothing to get it. But the novel is more than just a thrilling chase. The narrative totally envelops the reader in the colorful local culture and customs and the rich spiritual inheritance of Mesoamerica. -Tom Hyman, author of Seven Days to Petrograd The world was supposed to end on December 21, 2012. The Mayan Calendar, an ancient system for tracking the paths of the stars, inexplicably ran out on that precise date. The world might not have ended – but not all was well in Mexico on December 22nd. Long before her adventures in You May Have the Universe, Laura Alexander was on the scene and, as she would soon discover, trouble had a way of finding her. A twist of fate puts Laura at the center of a hotly contested treasure hunt and the target of government agents, organized crime, and agents from the Vatican. Danger and betrayal become commonplace for the plucky, attractive cub reporter. Could the key she is protecting really be the fabled Key of Cortes, the secret to unlocking a mystery door to a hidden trove of unimaginable wealth?

Citizen involvement is considered the cornerstone of democratic theory and practice. Citizens today have the knowledge and ability to participate more fully in the political, technical, and administrative decisions that affect them. On the other hand, direct citizen participation is often viewed with skepticism, even wariness. Many argue that citizens do not have the time, preparation, or interest to be directly involved in public affairs, and suggest instead that representative democracy, or indirect citizen participation, is the most effective form of government. Some of the very best writings on this key topic - which is at the root of the entire "reinventing government" movement - can be found in the journals that ASPA publishes or sponsors. In this collection Nancy Roberts has brought together the emerging classics on the ongoing debate over citizen involvement. Her detailed introductory essay and section openers frame the key issues, provide historical context, and fill in any gaps not directly covered by the articles. More than just an anthology, "The Age of Direct Citizen Participation" provides a unique and useful framework for understanding this important subject. It is an ideal resource for any Public Administration course involving citizen engagement and performance management.

The daughter if a prophet and the child slave of Spanish adventurer Hernan Cortes, the life of the Aztec princess Malinali is one of the most enduring legends of Mexico. Her role in history divides opinion even today. Reviled by some as a traitor responsible for the destruction of the Indians, worshiped by others as a heroine and symbolic mother of the nation, hers is the most extraordinary story in the history of the Americas. The legendary Aztec civilization is here brought to life in blazing colour, as the author traces the story of the enigmatic Malinali who held for a moment the future of an entire country in her hands. Contradictory, sensuous and fiercely intelligent, Malinali became the key to Cortes conquest of Mexico. It is a story of impossible odds, unimaginable cruelty, extraordinary courage and craven betrayal. Who were the heroes and who the villains? Today the Aztecs are a distant memory. But Malinali's name lives on. This book spent four months on the best seller lists in Mexico, re-igniting debate yet again about the true heritage of a people and the very nature of western colonisation of the natural world.
