Описание:

The devil comes to Ohio in Tiffany McDaniel's breathtaking and heartbreaking literary debut novel, The Summer That Melted Everything.

"A wonderfully original, profoundly unsettling, deeply moving novel that delivers both the shock of fully realized reality and the deep resonance of parable...A remarkable debut."
--Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer Prize winning author of A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain

"A haunting Appalachian Gothic novel that calls into question the nature of good and evil." --Akron Beacon Journal

Fielding Bliss has never forgotten the summer of 1984: the year a heat wave scorched Breathed, Ohio. The year he became friends with the devil.

Sal seems to appear out of nowhere - a bruised and tattered thirteen-year-old boy claiming to be the devil himself answering an invitation. Fielding Bliss, the son of a local prosecutor, brings him home where he's welcomed into the Bliss family, assuming he's a runaway from a nearby farm town.

When word spreads that the devil has come to Breathed, not everyone is happy to welcome this self-proclaimed fallen angel. Murmurs follow him and tensions rise, along with the temperature as an unbearable heat wave rolls into town right along with him. As strange accidents start to occur, riled by the feverish heat, some in the town start to believe that Sal is exactly who he claims to be. While the Bliss family wrestle with their own personal demons, a fanatic drives the town to the brink of a catastrophe that will change this sleepy Ohio backwater forever.

Описание: Kris McDaniel argues that there are different ways in which things exist. For instance, past things don`t exist in the same way as present things. Numbers don`t exist in the same way as physical objects; nor do holes, which are real, but less real than what they are in. McDaniel`s theory of being illuminates a wide range of metaphysical topics.

A girl on modern Earth and a boy from another world are thrown into a fight for their lives, only to discover they may both be connected to events in the distant past more epic than either can imagine.

Welcome to the 5-book Star Angel pentalogy.

---

Book 4: Jess is gone. Zac is alone. The Kel have arrived at Earth.

All is lost.

Or so it would seem. As with all things that have gone before, strength of will remains. Determination. Persistence, refusal to yield; the very things that have driven events to this epic turning point. There is a chance. On Anitra a treaty has been formed, that world closer to unity. A vast alliance awaits. Nani and Bianca have control of the powerful Reaver.

And Jess may not be as lost as she thinks.

For others wait who can help. If she can see her way through, if she can trust and believe, if the rest of her small band of adventurers hold fast to their own faith ...

There may yet be hope.

Описание:

What did the Russian revolution of 1917 and the Iranian revolution of 1978-1979 share besides their drama? How can we compare a revolution led by Lenin with one inspired by Khomeini? How is a revolution based primarily on the urban working class similar to one founded to a significant degree on traditional groups like the bazaaris, small craftsmen, and religious students and preachers? Identifying a distinctive route to modernity--autocratic modernization--Tim McDaniel explores the dilemmas inherent in the efforts of autocratic monarchies in Russia and Iran to transform their countries into modern industrial societies.
