Blue Sky Gone by J S Farmer Pdf

Audrey Moretti always knew she wanted to be a police officer, but she never expected it would take her on the most harrowing venture of her life-the search for her sister on September 11th, 2001... Audrey has made it to the final weeks of the police academy, and after five grueling months, she's solely focused on graduating. But on a quiet Tuesday morning, her life changes in an instant when she hears that an airplane has struck the World Trade Center. She knows her sister, Hannah, is in trouble; she can feel it. In a bold move, she risks all and finds herself at Ground Zero-a decision that will change her world forever. Hannah, a young Wall Street hopeful, works on the 84th floor in the South Tower of the World Trade Center. In the weeks leading up to the attacks of 9/11, everything is going right. Her career is taking off, and she unexpectedly finds true love in the city. When she witnesses from her office window the first plane strike the North Tower, nothing will ever be the same again. She follows her instinct to evacuate the South Tower, but will she escape the stairwell before the tower collapses...? Haunting questions remain for years after the tragedy, until a visit from a stranger and a handwritten note surface. Grief makes way for hope, in this deeply moving story of love, loss, strength, and courage, during a dark time in America's recent history. BLUE SKY GONE will take the reader on an emotional and powerful journey before, during, and after September 11th, 2001.

Pebble in the Sky by Isaac Asimov Pdf

One moment Joseph Schwartz is a happily retired tailor in Chicago, 1949. The next he's a helpless stranger on Earth during the heyday of the first Galactic Empire. Earth, as he soon learns, is a backwater, just a pebble in the sky, despised by all the other 200 million planets of the Empire because its people dare to claim it's the original home of man. And Earth is poor, with great areas of radioactivity ruining much of its soil--so poor that everyone is sentenced to death at the age of sixty. Joseph Schwartz is sixty-two. This is young Isaac Asimov's first novel, full of wonders and ideas, the book that launched the novels of the Galactic Empire, culminating in the Foundation series. This is Golden Age SF at its finest. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

I Could Read the Sky by Timothy O'Grady Pdf

'Think about a tune ... the unsayable, the invisible, the longing in music. Here is a book of tunes without musical notes ... It wrings the heart' John Berger 'A masterpiece' Robert Macfarlane 'O'Grady does not just respond to Pyke's stark, beautiful photographs: he gives voice to thousands' Louise Kennedy An old man lies alone and sleepless in London. Before dawn he is taken by an image from his childhood in the West of Ireland, and begins to remember a migrant's life. Haunted by the faces and the land he left behind, he calls forth the bars and boxing booths of England, the potato fields and building sites, the music he played and the woman he loved. Timothy O'Grady's tender, vivid prose and Steve Pyke's starkly beautiful photographs combine to make a unique work of fiction, an act of remembering suffused with loss, defiance and an unforgettable loveliness. An Irish life with echoes of the lives of unregarded migrant workers everywhere. Since it was first published in 1997, I Could Read the Sky has achieved the status of a classic.
