There had been blue lightning arcing and burning over the Great Stones of Avalon the night that the young warrior, Galahad, had so mysteriously appeared there. But who is Galahad and can Merlin truly trust him? Merlin's father, the Elder god, Mithras Invictus, tells him that he can trust the boy warrior with his life but Merlin is not so sure. Avalon is threatened by the Lord of Chaos and his Lords of Winter and Merlin needs all the help that he can get. Once more Merlin, Grim the Ghoul and Kraak the King of the Raven Kind, are joined by the three Mythical Beasts of Avalon that are Draago the Last of the Dragon Kind, Stormrider the golden King of the Unicorns and Firewing the Griffin in a desperate attempt to save Camelot from the Forces of Darkness that have broken through from the Abyss.

Camelot is in deep trouble, for not only has Merlin's father, the Elder god Mithras Invictus, left Avalon possibly never to return, but King Uther Pendragon has ordered that all the Elder god's shrines and altars are to be pulled down. This is not a great idea when the Lords of Winter are already at the Gates of Avalon and are waiting to bring the Cold of Eternal Winter to Camelot and its surrounding lands. The Druids are desperately trying to defend Avalon but they can only hold the Lords of Winter at bay for a short time. The young Druid girl, Ceinwen, comes to Camelot in an unsuccessful attempt to stop the destruction of the Elder god's altars. Once again it is left to Merlin, Galahad, Kraak and Grim to stand and fight for the survival of Camelot and Avalon.

Malachi Malone is an ordinary twelve-year old schoolboy living in Enniscorthy, Southern Ireland. Ordinary, that is, except for the fact that for all his life he's been able to see the 'Dead People' and there are an awful lot of dead people on the old battlefield that is Vinegar Hill. The fact that he was born with the tattoo of a dragon might also mean he's not that ordinary. In his search to retrieve the Lost Treasures of Ireland, which alone will bring peace back to the world, Malachi must decipher clues laid down many hundreds of years ago. The Forces of the Dark are awakening as they realise the threat that this seventh son of a seventh son is to their growing Power. Malachi must seek and find the An Chlairseach Oir, the Legendary Golden Harp of Ireland, in a desperate bid to keep safe his and our world.

A Short History of Ancient Greece

A Short History of Ancient Greece

P.J. Rhodes

Bloomsbury Academic
2019
nidottu
Classical Greece and its legacy have long inspired a powerful and passionate fascination. The civilization that bequeathed to later ages drama and democracy, Homer and heroism, myth and Mycenae and the Delphic Oracle and the Olympic Games has, perhaps more than any other, helped shape the intellectual contours of the modern world. P J Rhodes is among the most distinguished historians of antiquity. In this elegant, zesty new survey he explores the archaic (8th - early 5th centuries BCE), classical (5th and 4th centuries BCE) and Hellenistic (late 4th - mid-2nd centuries BCE) periods up to the beginning of Roman hegemony. His scope is that of the people who originated on the Greek mainland and Aegean islands who later migrated to the shores of the Mediterranean and Black Seas, and then (following the conquests of Alexander) to the Near East and beyond. Exploring topics such as the epic struggle with Persia; the bitter rivalry of Athens and Sparta; slaves and ethnicity; religion and philosophy; and literature and the visual arts, this authoritative book will attract students and non-specialists in equal measure.

Alcibiades

Alcibiades

P J Rhodes

Pen Sword Military

Alcibiades is one of the most famous (or infamous) characters of Classical Greece. A young Athenian aristocrat, he came to prominence during the Peloponnesian War (429-404 BC) between Sparta and Athens. Flamboyant, charismatic (and wealthy), this close associate of Socrates persuaded the Athenians to attempt to stand up to the Spartans on land as part of an alliance he was instrumental in bringing together. Although this led to defeat at the Battle of Mantinea in 418 BC, his prestige remained high. He was also a prime mover in Athens' next big strategic gambit, the Sicilian Expedition of 415 BC, for which he was elected as one of the leaders. Shortly after arrival in Sicily, however, he was recalled to face charges of sacrilege allegedly committed during his pre-expedition revelling. Jumping ship on the return journey, he defected to the Spartans. Alcibiades soon ingratiated himself with the Spartans, encouraging them to aid the Sicilians (ultimately resulting in the utter destruction of the Athenian expedition)and to keep year-round pressure on the Athenians. He then seems to have overstepped the bounds of hospitality by sleeping with the Spartan queen and was soon on the run again. He then played a devious and dangerous game of shifting loyalties between Sparta, Athens and Persia. He had a hand in engineering the overthrow of democracy at Athens in favour of an oligarchy, which allowed him to return from exile, though he then opposed the increasingly-extreme excesses of that regime. For a time he looked to have restored Athens' fortunes in the war, but went into exile again after being held responsible for the defeat of one of his subordinates in a naval battle. This time he took refuge with the Persians, but as they were now allied to the Spartans, the cuckolded King Agis of Sparta was able to arrange his assassination by Persian agents. There has been no full length biography of this colourful and important character for twenty years. Professor Rhodes brings the authority of an internationally recognised expert in the field, ensuring that this will be a truly significant addition to the literature on Classical Greece.

Defining an Identity

Defining an Identity

P.J. Fensham

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2004
sidottu
Research in science education is now an international activity. This book asks for the first time, Does this research activity have an identity? -It uses the significant studies of more than 75 researchers in 15 countries to see to what extent they provide evidence for an identity as a distinctive field of research. -It considers trends in the research over time, and looks particularly at what progression in the research entails. -It provides insight into how researchers influence each other and how involvement in research affects the being of the researcher as a person. -It addresses the relation between research and practice in a manner that sees teaching and learning in the science classroom as interdependent with national policies and curriculum traditions about science. It gives graduate students and other early researchers an unusual overview of their research area as a whole. Established researchers will be interested in, and challenged by, the identity the author ascribes to the research and by the plea he makes for the science content itself to be seen as problematic.

Gulls: A Guide to Identification. 2nd Edition

Gulls: A Guide to Identification. 2nd Edition

P.J Grant

Poyser
2010
sidottu
This second edition of Peter Grant's guide has been extensively revised and has been reset throughout. Importantly, a further eight species of gulls occurring on the west coasts of Canada and the USA have been added. The book now covers 31 species and has been increased in length from 280 to 352 pages. More than 280 new photographs have been added or substituted, bringing the total to 544, including 79 photographs for the eight North American additional species. The great increase in interest in gull identification since the publication of the first edition (and the author's series on that topic in British Birds) has helped bring much new information to light. As a result some revision was made to almost every text page and most of the identification drawings were improved in some way; in addition, changes were made to many of the distribution maps. These revisions and improvements were often quite minor, but others were substantial and important (see the author's Introduction). Until recently gulls were widely regarded as a difficult group and identification and ageing was often inaccurate or uncertain. This was largely due to the complexities of immature plumages, which of necessity were generally unrepresented in standard field guides. Birdwatchers need no longer be deterred or confounded by that deficiency. The book offers them the opportunity to advance their skill in field identification by accepting the challenge rather than shrinking from the difficulties.
