Jia has always feared this day would come before she was ready to accept her father's responsibilities.She never believed it would arrive on the heels of an unsanctioned anthro hunt that tears her father from her life and leave the Pack in her care, with no indication if the man is alive or dead. His loss hints at a secret worth killing, worth dying for, and it is left to Jia to find the answers her father took with him.Can she expose the borough's underbelly, find her father, and keep the pack intact, protect them as her father had done...or will uncertain alliances made, and her quest to uncover the truth, destroy everything and everyone she has ever loved?
Blood Wild Chronicles Book ThreeToo many had expressed interest in Fort Hamilton for Jia to doubt her father's belief in it.Roland's murder meant that no one stood between its rumored treasure and those seeking control over all that remained of the known world.No one stood in the way except Jia. No one except the Tracker-Mage Vance Segara who could guide her to where the fort was rumored to be. No one except a handful of allies willing to face the risks of the unincorporated lands to the west of the claimed territories.But there were other responsibilities weighing upon her as well. She should remain at Queen's College and rebuild the pack. She should fight, alongside Vance, against those who hunted Cana for their blood. She should stand with Nik, as her father intended, as co-Laedans of LaGuardia to fight for the borough's future as the Channon house ripped itself apart.None of those responsibilities, however, would matter if those with a lust for power found the Fort. No one, anthro, mutani, and normal alike, would be safe from the bloodshed if HOPE, or anyone else, got their hands on Fort Hamilton's rumored treasures first.The Pack would have to be patient.It had to be now.The race had begun.
Mere Venoma Noir, the fourth Sister of Power, proves to be the most challenging yet for Viktor Brandewyne. She sets him to retrieve an amulet stolen by a notorious slave trader with a reputation for ruthlessness to rival Viktor's and a talent for black magic. She also possesses the power to turn the siren, Belladonna, against him; and the Sister will use every tool and opportunity she can to kill the pirate-turned-vampire before he can complete his quest.
The sixth Sister of Power presents pirate-turned-vampire Viktor Brandewyne with his greatest challenge yet.Circe proves not only hard to reach: the quest she sets him is fraught with peril from the very start. He must brave a labyrinth to retrieve a puzzle box. He then must revisit each of the Sisters he's already faced. Five pieces of the box were dispersed among them by order of the Elder long before Viktor was even born.The completion of his quest is further barred by a sea dragon, the ultimate form of a male siren, who seeks to claim Belladonna as his mate.Before all is done, Viktor will lose someone very close and important to him.He also has to survive Circe's powers; for she is the same witch from The Odyssey, with the power to turn men to beasts.

Designer Surfaces presents an approach to the design and fabrication of optical elements that are based on the use of one- or two-dimensional randomly rough surfaces to reflect or transmit light in specified ways. The reader is provided with an introduction to analytical methods for the solution of direct problems in rough surface scattering, and fabrication techniques. These can be useful in contexts outside the scope of this book. The advantages and disadvantages of this stochastic approach compared to the diffractive optics approach are discussed. Finally, experimental results that verify the predictions of the theories developed in this book are presented.
