Описание:

The year is 92 B.C. Gordianus has just turned eighteen and is about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime: a far-flung journey to see the Seven Wonders of the World. Gordianus is not yet called the Finder--but at each of the Seven Wonders, the wide-eyed young Roman encounters a mystery to challenge the powers of deduction.

Accompanying Gordianus on his travels is his tutor, Antipater of Sidon, the world's most celebrated poet. But there is more to the apparently harmless old poet than meets the eye. Before they leave home, Antipater fakes his own death and travels under an assumed identity. Looming in the background are the first rumblings of a political upheaval that will shake the entire Roman world.

Teacher and pupil journey to the fabled cities of Greece and Asia Minor, and then to Babylon and Egypt. They attend the Olympic Games, take part in exotic festivals, and marvel at the most spectacular constructions ever devised by mankind. Along the way they encounter murder, witchcraft and ghostly hauntings. Traveling the world for the first time, Gordianus discovers that amorous exploration goes hand-in-hand with crime-solving. The mysteries of love are the true wonders of the world, and at the end of the journey, an Eighth Wonder awaits him in Alexandria. Her name is Bethesda.

The Seven Wonders is a Novel of Ancient Rome by Steven Saylor.

They travel to Oregon to surprise Jamie's parents on their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary and to attend the famous Pendleton Roundup... During their visit, they find themselves involved in poaching, murder, and rustling, as well as a three-hundred-year-old-lost treasure on the Oregon Coast. With the accidental uncovering of a drug ring just off the reservation, Jamie, and her entire family, find themselves targets of the perpetrators... Jamie's mom and Uncle Max have a curious ability to understand and respect the 'unexplained' events in our world. One of these 'unexplainable' entities aids the FBI and the Umatilla tribal police in solving cases they find themselves working on together. Spirits and Heroes --or both? Who's to know for sure?

Описание: LOST CHANGE AND LOOSE COUSINS, the new book by Aaron Saylor & Strother Kevin Hall, is exactly what its title implies: an eclectic collection of short fiction and nonfiction pieces that combine into a wholly satisfying journey across genres. Aaron Saylor (author of the acclaimed Southern gangster novel SEWERVILLE) contributes most of the fiction here, ranging from amusing ("The Autobiography of Nobody", "Sewerville: the Lay of the Land") to melancholy ("The Sweet Smell of Pine Needles") to outright horror ("The Dead on Black River","Apep, the Darkness"). Hall provides all of the nonfiction with a series of essays, some inspired from his childhood, some from just a few days ago. He also contributes some fiction, including the emotional "Nonsense," which weaves five interconnecting short stories into one larger tale. Note: the paperback version of LOST CHANGE AND LOOSE COUSINS includes the additional work "Philosopher Dog: Issue One", a fantasy comic-book script about a time-travelling yorkshire terrier.

Описание:

In the unseasonable heat of a spring morning in 80 B.C., Gordianus the Finder is summoned to the house of Cicero, a young advocate staking his reputation on a case involving the savage murder of  the wealthy, sybaritic Sextus Roscius. Charged with the murder is Sextus's son, greed being the apparent motive. The punishment, rooted deep in Roman tradition, is horrific beyond imagining.

The case becomes a political nightmare when Gordianus's investigation takes him through the city's raucous, pungent streets and deep into rural Umbria. Now, one man's fate may threaten the very leaders of Rome itself.

Описание:

Following his international bestsellers Roma and Empire, Steven Saylor's Dominus continues his saga of the greatest, most storied empire in history from the eternal city at the very center of it all.

A.D. 165: The empire of Rome has reached its pinnacle. Universal peace--the Pax Roma--reigns from Britannia to Egypt, from Gaul to Greece. Marcus Aurelius, as much a philosopher as he is an emperor, oversees a golden age in the city of Rome. The ancient Pinarius family and their workshop of artisans embellish the richest and greatest city on earth with gilded statues and towering marble monuments. Art and reason flourish. But history does not stand still.

The years to come bring wars, plagues, fires, and famines. The best emperors in history are succeeded by some of the worst. Barbarians descend in endless waves, eventually appearing before the gates of Rome itself. The military seizes power and sells the throne to the highest bidder. Chaos engulfs the empire.

Through it all, the Pinarius family endures, thanks in no small part to the protective powers of the fascinum, a talisman older than Rome itself, a mystical heirloom handed down through countless generations.

But an even greater upheaval is yet to come. On the fringes of society, troublesome cultists disseminate dangerous and seditious ideas. They insist that everyone in the world should worship only one god, their god. They call themselves Christians. Some emperors deal with the Christians with toleration, others with bloody persecution. Then one emperor does the unthinkable. He becomes a Christian himself. His name is Constantine, and the revolution he sets in motion will change the world forever.

Spanning 160 years and seven generations, teeming with some of ancient Rome's most vivid figures, Saylor's epic brings to vivid life some of the most tumultuous and consequential chapters of human history, events which reverberate still.

Описание:

The Best Jump Ever came into being when a grasshopper landed on my windshield as I was driving out of town. This does not happen very often where I live. I slowed my car down as the grasshopper looked like he was clinging to the window shield. As the car slowed down, he was able to hop off. I realized that I had the beginning of a story for children. I shared my story with our neighbor girl, and she was all excited about the possibility of the story. I wanted to give the reader something more than just a cute story, and as a mother and a grandmother plus a teacher, I have been concerned about the high pressure that children today must be feeling with the competitive spirit that is present in our society. Therefore Best Jump Ever became a reality as I began to formulate the story. I wanted it to be realistic even though I was using an insect to tell the story to show the children that we don't always have to be first or to always win.
