Описание: According to Joss Whedon, the creator of the short-lived series Firefly (2002), the cult show is about "nine people looking into the blackness of space and seeing nine different things." The chronicles of crewmembers on a scruffy space freighter, Firefly ran for only four months before its abrupt cancellation. In that brief time, however, it established a reputation as one of the best science-fiction programs of the new millennium: sharply written, superbly cast, and set on an exotic multicultural frontier unlike anything ever seen on the small screen. The show's large, enthusiastic fan following supported a series of comics and a theatrical film, Serenity (2005), that extended the story, deepened the characters, and revealed new wonders and dangers on the deep-space frontier. In Firefly Revisited: Essays on Joss Whedon's Classic Series, Michael Goodrum and Philip Smith present a collection that reflects on the program, the characters, and the post-cancellation film and comics that grew out of the show. The contributors to this volume offer fresh perspectives on familiar characters and blaze new trails into unexplored areas of the Firefly universe. Individual essays explore the series' place in the history of the space-Western subgenre, the political economy of the Alliance, and the uses of music and language in the series to immerse audiences in a multicultural future. These essays look at how the show offered viewers high adventure as well as engaged with a range of themes that still resonate today. As such, Firefly Revisited will intrigue the show's many fans, as well as Whedon scholars and anyone interested in the twenty-first-century renaissance of science-fiction television.

Who built the Pyramids and the Sphinx in Africa? What if teachers came and taught early humans how to build these huge structures? Obviously, they were advanced and could travel through time. So if they traveled through time to get here, they could also go back. But what if one of these "teachers" remained on earth and never grew old? And what if this "teacher" loved only one man? The truth is the "teachers" came through the portal of the sun, and one stayed on Earth. Dr. Manny Cortez has searched for signs of these teachers all his life. Dr. Cortez is the most famous archaeologist of our time, and he is digging in Africa at a site where King Arumet met the original teachers.

Some Egyptians believe that Anubis (a "teacher") walked the earth himself and helped humans as the cave drawings depict in the Great Pyramids.

Dr. Cortez is searching for the portal of the sun that is the gateway to another dimension. Mr. Widdal, who is the site dig manager, is a crook and wants to sell it and all the artifacts on the black market for money. Dr. Cortez knows the significance of the portal of the sun and doesn't want Mr. Widdal to find it. Dr. Cortez goes missing and cannot be located, leaving his playboy son Johnny Cortez to uncover clues and locate him.

Widdal is watching his every move and waiting to kill him.
