Hundred Beam Bridge by Ted Marr Pdf

When does ambition to attain a noble goal demand too high a price - risking everything -- family, clan and even life? Such is the tale of Hasan Arslan: a captivating and turbulent saga set in 11th-century China's Song Dynasty. Hasan, a Gelolu Uyghur and master bow maker, strives to ascend the upper echelons of the Song Imperial Society. Despite the perils of assassination, political pitfalls, racial conflict, infidelity, deceit, and betrayal, he pursues his lofty goal. Will the jade Pixiu, a mythical being with the head of a dragon and the body of a lion, bestowed upon his grandfather by Emperor Taizong, protect Hasan and bring prosperity to his family? When all the Arslan men engage in warfare to fend off Tangut and Jurchen invaders, can two generations of women—Layla, Melod, and Pendo—forge a path to success through their House of Arslan Armory? Escaping Jurchen marauders to a foreign land, Manola and Meimei, the granddaughters, upheave norms of race and culture in their pursuit of stability and wealth. Will their efforts lead to further disaster or uncover fabulous riches? If you cherished the emotionally charged story of "The Secret Life Of Sunflowers" by Marta Monlar, the sweeping generational saga of "Pachinko" by Min Jin Lee, the poignant resonance of "The Joy Luck Club" by Amy Tan, and the enthralling narratives of "Lady Tan’s Circle of Women" by Lisa See then prepare to be captivated and entranced by this spellbinding saga.

Magnificent Devices Books 1-2: A steampunk adventure with a riches-to-rags found family by Shelley Adina Pdf

She wants to be an engineer, but society will never allow it. Until riots break out in steampunk London and she seizes her chance... It’s 1889, and Lady Claire Trevelyan is expected to do nothing more with her life than catch a rich husband. Unfortunately, her talents lie not in the ballroom, but in the laboratory, where her experiments have an embarrassing habit of blowing up. When her father gambles the estate on the combustion engine and loses, Claire finds herself out in the street with nothing to her name but her steam landau and her second best hat. But the embarrassments of her old life might be the talents that save her now ... if she can stay alive long enough to barter her skills for a street gang’s protection. It’s not long before a new leader rises in the London underworld, known only as the Lady of Devices … a double life Claire must keep secret. Will she achieve her goal of an engineering degree? Will her loyalty to her friends be her undoing when it jeopardizes the plans of powerful men? And just how many funerals will her unfortunate mother be forced to arrange? “An immensely fun series, a wonderful main character (one of my favourites in the genre) and a great sense of Victorian style and language that’s both fun and beautiful to read.” —Fangs for the Fantasy: The latest in urban fantasy from a social justice perspective This two-book set contains Lady of Devices and Her Own Devices, the first two novels in the Magnificent Devices series. The series is meant to be read in order, but it is divided into duets and quartets for easy navigation. If you like books by Gail Carriger, Lindsay Buroker, or Nancy Warren, you’re in the right place. Enjoy!

Her Own Devices: A steampunk adventure novel with smart, brave women inventors by Shelley Adina Pdf

Escaped lunatics, lost children, vengeful lords, and love. Really, the situation is becoming quite impossible. Left alone after the Arabian Bubble financial disaster, Lady Claire Trevelyan now leads the cleverest group of gamblers and reformed cutpurses in the London underworld. The lightning rifle she took from a rival gang contains a unique source of energy—and its inventor has been locked up in Bedlam by powerful men in order to suppress its very existence. In order for Lady Claire to understand it, she must consult with the mad scientist ... even if it means breaking her out of the most frightening institution in London. Then, in a moment of madness, she becomes engaged to Lord James Selwyn, who knows nothing of her double life. He expects her to be the perfect hostess to the rich investors interested in his and Andrew Malvern's Kinetick Carbonator. But how can Andrew stand by and watch Claire marry someone she does not love? "This is one of those books that gets it right. Through dialogue, through actions, through carefully described settings, through attitudes and appropriate, non-overdone references, we have a great sense of time and place that’s really immersive and fun." —Fangs for the Fantasy: The latest in urban fantasy from a social justice perspective Her Own Devices is the second novel in the Magnificent Devices steampunk series, with books 1-4 forming a quartet. No strong language, just a very proper kiss or two and a satisfying solution. If you like books by Gail Carriger, Lindsay Buroker, or Emma Jane Holloway, you’re in the right place. Enjoy!
