The Winter Star by Robert Burnett,Steven Taber Pdf

Westburgh Pennsylvania, a small, quiet town on the outskirts of Wilkes-Barre. A town with a terrifying history that has long been forgotten. When a small prop plane crashes in the woods outside of town, a man running from his own past is drawn into a history he has no knowledge of. He is told to look for others that can help him, and is given a cryptic message: 'What's coming through is alive' What does it mean? A single phrase, linking three unlikely individuals against something they don't understand. A horror is reawakening, and will bring with it a darkness to the town no one can prepare for. Three people, chosen to finish something that began nearly a century before. Three people, formed by a shared past and an allegiance to stop the terror. They are the only hope the town has.

Upon a Winter's Star: A Pride & Prejudice Holiday Variation by Sophia Grey Pdf

Elizabeth Bennet is quickly running out of options for a suitable husband. As her mother begins to worry about Mr. Bennet’s health, the need to secure Longbourn’s legacy grows ever more pressing. Elizabeth Bennet has had a change of heart. As the years have flown by, the search for the very deepest love, something that has driven her decisions in regards to marriage, now seem somewhat impossible. Perhaps a happy marriage does not require love. Perhaps all those things she had always dreamed of would come in time... With two younger sisters married and out of the house, and Jane always away on her own pursuits, her mother’s obsession with seeing her daughters properly married has turned a new corner. With Elizabeth’s new views on marriage presented to her mother, she is sent to Hunsford to become better acquainted with Mr. Collins, to whom Longbourn is entailed. However, her choice to ask Charlotte Lucas to accompany her to Hunsford has proven problematic, and when Mr. Collins’ affections are turned elsewhere, Elizabeth finds herself in a position that will only lead her to heartbreak. Upon A Winter’s Star is a sweet, clean, Pride and Prejudice Holiday Variation that is suitable for all lovers of Jane Austen’s romantic classic.

Winter Stars by Larry Levis Pdf

Since the appearance of his first book in 1972, Larry Levis has been one of the most original and most highly praised of contemporary American poets. In Winter Stars, a book of love poems and elegies, Levis engages in a process of relentless self-interrogation about his life, about losses and acceptances. What emerges is not merely autobiography, but a biography of the reader, a “representative life” of our time.

Astronomy Adventures and Vacations by Timothy Treadwell Pdf

This astronomy travel guide examines the many wonderful opportunities for experiencing the observing hobby. Amateur astronomy is often consigned to observing from home or from a local park, yet it can be much more. Tim Treadwell explores all the possibilities of astronomical and space-related activities that are available on day trips and longer vacations. These activities range from observatory visits and other simple ways to build an astronomy event into a holiday, to full blown specialized astronomy travel. Many trips give the opportunity to visit some of the world’s famous attractions. On most vacations it can be a matter of just taking a day (or night) out of your schedule to fit in an astronomy event, but larger, dedicated pilgrimages are also possible. How to make the most of astronomy potential on a holiday, whether observing on the beach in Hawaii with the Telescope Guy or visiting Star City in Russia, is covered in detail. Go to a star party, explore the national parks or see the northern lights! There are a wide variety of activities for all budgets described in this book.
