Finding Fizz by Julie Hodgson Pdf

In the late sixteenth century, Sam awakens in a divine land of inimitable beauty, where a unicorn grazes on the banks of a rainbow lake, but all he feels is emptiness. It is his own poetic vision of heaven, but the reality is hellish: his death, the day before his twentieth birthday, has separated him from the love of his life and his heart has left him. Consequently, he is condemned to spend all of eternity in this soulless place. Sam's meddling guardian angel, Athena, is desperate to atone for her role in his heavenly imprisonment and although she can't send him back to his own life, she breaks all the rules by allowing him to be reincarnated again and again - as many times as it takes for him to find Fizz, the love of his life. Sam's fate, however, was written by a higher power and death will continue to stalk him through every one of his incarnations. Only when he has solved the mystery of his original death and avoided the same fate in his new life can he and Fizz finally live in peace.

Australian Horror Films, 1973-2010 by Peter Shelley Pdf

This pioneering work provides in-depth coverage of 76 horror films produced in Australia, where serial killers, carnivorous animals, mutants, zombies, vampires and evil spirits all receive the "antipodean" cinematic treatment unique to the Land Down Under. Titles covered were released between 1973 and 2010, a period coinciding with the revival of the long-dormant Australian film industry in the early 1970s, and continuing into the second wave of genre production spurred by the international success of the 2005 chiller Wolf Creek. The Cars That Ate Paris, The Last Wave, Roadgames, Razorback, Outback Vampires, Queen of the Damned, Black Water, and The Reef are among the titles represented. Each film is covered in a chapter that includes a cast and credits list, release information, contemporary reviews and DVD availability, as well as a synopsis and in-depth notes about the story, filmmaking techniques, acting performances, recurring themes and motifs, and overall effectiveness of the film as a work of horror.

Tank & Fizz: The Case of the Missing Mage by Liam O'Donnell Pdf

As the eve of the great Wizards' Summit approaches, wizards from all over Rockfall Mountain descend on the school at Shadow Tower to refine their craft. When professors start disappearing, it's up to magic-fearing monster sleuths Tank and Fizz to solve this spell-packed mystery and find the missing mages. Aleetha, their detective partner and a wizard-in-training, has dragged Tank and Fizz into the heart of the Shadow Tower, where libraries fly, spells fill the air, and an ancient army of darkness stirs, when she receives a mysterious message from her missing teacher. Using their detective skills, a pinch of magic and a trickle of technology, the friends stumble into a battle that's been brewing for decades. And what starts as a simple missing-persons case turns into a clash of light versus dark magic. Can Tank and Fizz overcome their fears and track down the missing mages before the black magic makes them disappear for good? The Case of the Missing Mage is the third book in the Tank & Fizz series about two crime-solving monsters living under a mountain, following The Case of the Slime Stampede and The Case of the Battling Bots. Stay tuned for book four, coming spring 2018.

Fizz by Tristan Donovan Pdf

The story of soda is the story of the modern world, a tale of glamorous bubbles, sparkling dreams, big bucks, miracle cures and spreading waistlines. Fizz! How Soda Shook Up The World charts soda's remarkable, world-changing journey from awe-inspiring natural mystery to ubiquitous presence in all our lives. Along the way you'll meet the quack medicine peddlers who spawned some of the world's biggest brands with their all-healing concoctions as well as the grandees of science and medicine mesmerized by the magic of bubbling water. You'll discover how fizzy pop cashed in on Prohibition, helped presidents reach the White House, and became public health enemy number one. You'll learn how Pepsi put the fizz in Apple's marketing and how soda's sticky sweet allure defined and built nations. And you'll find out how a soda-loving snail rewrote the law books. Fizz! tells the extraordinary tale of how a seemingly simple everyday refreshment zinged and pinged over our taste buds and, in doing so, changed the world around us. Tristan Donovan is the author of Replay: The History of Video Games. His work has appeared in the Times, Stuff, the Daily Telegraph, the Guardian, and the Big Issue, among others.

Watching by Julie Hodgson Pdf

Watching. Watching. Always watching. Since her beloved husband passed away, all seventy-two-year-old Hazel has are her memories, the radio news and the view from her window - across the beautiful, leafy suburb ... and directly into her neighbours' lives. Just what is Alan doing digging in the garden? And where is Carol, his wife? She has witnessed his violence, through the window, and now she fears for Carol's life. But Hazel is an old lady, and she knows that things aren't quite right with her mind. Her memory is failing her, and when she receives a note from her dead husband, accusing her of murdering him, she begins to wonder if she is also losing her grip on reality. Hazel's discoveries, as she tries to make sense of things, force her to face not only the uncomfortable truth about her neighbours and the violent consequences of her interference but also the twisted, bloody truth about her own past.

FINDING SAVOONGA by Doris D. Ray Pdf

NEVER IN THEIR WILDEST DREAMS did the young couple imagine their teaching careers would begin in a remote Yupik Eskimo village on a desolate, icy, wind-swept island in the Bering Sea. It was 1951. On a whim, Charles “Tod” and his fiancé, Doris Derby, answer a help-wanted ad seeking teachers in Alaska. Back comes a telegram from the Bureau of Indian Affairs offering jobs 3,000 miles away in Savoonga, population 250, on St. Lawrence Island. The village had no airport, no roads, no telephones, and little contact with the outside world. The Rays arrive in a walrus skinboat. “Our lives have become so vastly different from anything we have ever experienced!” Doris writes her mother. Thus begins one of many candid, evocative letters Tod and Doris write describing their experiences being two of only three white people in the village … melting ice for water … teaching children who speak no English … forming close friendships with villagers who welcome them warmly … fighting a frightening measles epidemic … and receiving groceries by ship once a year while villagers hunt walrus for survival. Finding Savoonga is illustrated with 110 color photographs illustrating a self-sufficient, pre-industrial society subsisting on food from the sea.
