Dr. A’Pal Chi is a mathematician sworn by oath to reveal none of his findings. His labs at the university are the only facilities still in operation on his doomed planet. He is working on a complex formula that will change the world if he can figure it out. One of his theories removes zero from the number-line and allows to equal 3. His c2 equation allows travel at light speed. So, his team builds a grand new ship capable of carrying two thousand people on an eight-and-a-half-year trip to the stars. Back on his home world, a race was on with the cities of the east. They have their own light speed program and have the same destination planet in mind. As Dr. Chi embarks on his journey and transforms from mathematician to explorer, he leads the charge as history, mythology, and religion are examined in new ways, through archeology, space travel, ritual, and legend. As he, his team, and his crew search for evidence of ancient civilizations on new worlds, they determine that they are not alone in this vast universe full of surprises. In this science fiction tale, a mathematician turned explorer travels on light-speed adventures in space where mythology springs to life and his destiny awaits.

“A fascinating romp through the feminine side of the infamous Khan clan” (Booklist) by the author featured in Echoes of the Empire: Beyond Genghis Khan “Enticing . . . hard to put down.”—Associated Press The Mongol queens of the thirteenth century ruled the largest empire the world has ever known. The daughters of the Silk Route turned their father’s conquests into the first truly international empire, fostering trade, education, and religion throughout their territories and creating an economic system that stretched from the Pacific to the Mediterranean. Yet sometime near the end of the century, censors cut a section about the queens from the Secret History of the Mongols, and, with that one act, the dynasty of these royals had seemingly been extinguished forever, as even their names were erased from the historical record. With The Secret History of the Mongol Queens, a groundbreaking and magnificently researched narrative, Jack Weatherford restores the queens’ missing chapter to the annals of history.

A delightful collection of modern Chinese tales The Dragon Daughter and Other Lin Lan Fairy Tales brings together forty-two magical Chinese tales, most appearing for the first time in English. These stories have been carefully selected from more than a thousand originally published in the early twentieth century under the pseudonyms Lin Lan and Lady Lin Lan—previously unknown in the West, and now acclaimed as the Brothers Grimm of China. The birth of the tales began in 1924, when one author, Li Xiaofeng, published a set of literary stories under the Lin Lan pen name, an alias that would eventually be shared by an editorial team. Together, this group gathered fairy tales (tonghua) from rural regions across China. Combining traditional oral Chinese narratives with elements from the West, the selections in this collection represent different themes and genres—from folk legends to comic tales. Characters fall for fairies, experience predestined love, and have love/hate relationships with siblings. Garden snails and snakes transform into cooking girls, and dragon daughters construct houses. An introduction offers historical and social context for understanding the role that the Lin Lan stories played in modern China. Appendixes include information on tale types and biographies of the writers and contributors. The Dragon Daughter and Other Lin Lan Fairy Tales is a captivating testament to the power of storytelling.
