A Home With No Roof is the author's second book in his Scott Mathias Detective series. This mystery/thriller is set on the island of Bermuda, where the NH native, Wayne W. Whicher, has travelled to often. Whicher loves to transport his readers to the picture-perfect island where he has enjoyed many long "research" vacations. Scott Mathias is working three cases at once on the otherwise tranquil island. A variety of girls have been abducted from cruise ships docked at port. A pimp-like killer is harrassing the island's homeless people, and a new friend of Scott's has now gone missing. She loved her Italian food, much to her own demise. Follow Scott from end to end of picturesque Bermuda as he attempts to solve the myraid of cases that he is working on. One, two, buckle my shoe. Three, four, out the door. The first person, disturbed, psychotic killer rhymes to himself. Because it makes him smile. When taking out the trash and disposing of his victims, this main character of the book mutters. "Four rocks, not three or even five, but four rocks. Four is a perfect number." I suppose that he's pretty well convinced that four rocks will do the trick to weigh down the body that he floats out into the ocean inside a plastic bag. The trash. It sinks down into the teal, crystal clear waters and disappears beneath the surface. If you enjoy "A Home With No Roof," go back to the beginning of it all with Detective Mathias in the first novel of the series, "Sunset over the Hermes."

Human beings have speculated about whether or not there is life after death, and if so, what form that life might take, for centuries. What did people in the ancient world think the next life would hold, and did they imagine there was a chance for a relationship between the living and the dead? How did people in the ancient world keep their dead loved ones alive through memory, and were they afraid the dead might return and haunt the living in another form? What sort of afterlife did the ancient Greeks and Romans imagine for themselves? This volume explores these questions and more. While individual representations of the afterlife have often been examined, few studies have taken a more general view of ideas about the afterlife circulating in the ancient world. By drawing together current research from international scholars on archaeological evidence for afterlife belief, chiefly from funerary sites, together with studies of works of literature, this volume provides a broader overview of ancient ideas about the afterlife than has so far been available. Imagining the Afterlife in the Ancient World explores these key questions through a series of wide-ranging studies, taking in ghosts, demons, dreams, cosmology, and the mutilation of corpses along the way, offering a valuable resource to those studying all aspects of death in the ancient world

Trinity remains ignorant of her creative potential as an artist. Her son Zeus loses himself in the attainment of corporate wealth and power. Feeling alone and confused, her grandson Enoch wanders displaced thirty years after the turn of this century, and only Trinity's secret wisdom can uncover Enoch's path towards enlightenment and subsequently restore a family torn apart by violence and fear. The Sea of Milk is a novel about a woman's fateful fall and her fulfilling rise. This is a story about the woman's son who attempts to conquer and control his environment in order to rid personal shame and suffering. This is a story about the woman's grandson who redeems his father and thus glorifies her. It is, most of all, a myth about living and dying and returning home.

Greek and Roman stories of origin, or aetia, provide a fascinating window onto ancient conceptions of time. Aetia pervade ancient literature at all its stages, and connect the past with the present by telling us which aspects of the past survive "even now" or "ever since then". Yet, while the standard aetiological formulae remain surprisingly stable over time, the understanding of time that lies behind stories of origin undergoes profound changes. By studying a broad range of texts and by closely examining select stories of origin from archaic Greece, Hellenistic Greece, Augustan Rome, and early Christian literature, Time in Ancient Stories of Origin traces the changing forms of stories of origin and the underlying changing attitudes to time: to the interaction of the time of gods and men, to historical time, to change and continuity, as well as to a time beyond the present one. Walter provides a model of how to analyse the temporal construction of aetia, by combining close attention to detail with a view towards the larger temporal agenda of each work. In the process, new insights are provided both into some of the best-known aetiological works of antiquity (e.g. by Hesiod, Callimachus, Vergil, Ovid) and lesser-known works (e.g. Ephorus, Prudentius, Orosius). This volume shows that aetia do not merely convey factual information about the continuity of the past, but implicate the present in ever new complex messages about time.

A better deal could not be out there. This valuable box or combo contains six titles that are each targeted towards a different area of the world.

You will read about myths, deities, people being killed, people betraying each other, animals that can talk, supernatural powers that are exerted, and much, much more. Each of these books is not only filled with the stories from those times, but a number of background details of that particular society as well, so you can better understand how people thought and why these stories make more sense in the historical context. Feel free to begin reading or listening anytime, but I would encourage you to start right now.

Lives of the Planets describes a scientific field in the midst of a revolution. Planetary science has mainly been a descriptive science, but it is becoming increasingly experimental. The space probes that went up between the 1960s and 1990s were primarily generalists-they collected massive amounts of information so that scientists could learn what questions to pursue. But recent missions have become more focused: Scientists know better what information they want and how to collect it. Even now probes are on their way to Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Pluto, with Europa-one of Jupiter's moons-on the agenda. In a sweeping look into the manifold objects inhabiting the depths of space, Lives of the Planets delves into the mythology and the knowledge humanity has built over the ages. Placing our current understanding in historical context, Richard Corfield explores the seismic shifts in planetary astronomy and probes why we must change our perspective of our place in the universe. In our era of extraordinary discovery, this is the first comprehensive survey of this new understanding and the history of how we got here.
