DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe battle is going full force and nothing is being held back. Steven Boyd and the Blufirs are attacking with everything they have to defeat Pedro and his friends. Meanwhile, Pedro and his group are doing all they possibly can do to hold them back until reinforcements arrive. With the help of some of their allies, Pedro has been able to stay one step ahead of the enemy but time is quickly running out. With all the new weapons being used, no one can predict what is coming next. If something drastic doesn’t change and fast, it might be too late for anyone else to stop Steven Boyd and the Blufirs from taking over the Earth, destroying it, and eventually every other world, realm, and empire that exists as well. Pedro and his friends are well aware of the consequences if they fail to stop their enemy from advancing. With limited weapons they are forced to depend on their allies’ resources which have so far turned out to be odd but effective. Although Jim Davis is a royal pain in the rear, he has finally proved his worth as a valuable resource and gained everyone’s respect. However, David is the real star of the group. With his surprising knowledge, skills, and resources, he has allowed the others to take full advantage in their decision making and, so far, it has continued to keep them alive. Steven Boyd believes Pedro is some kind of a good luck charm that continues to allow the others to remain safely out of his grasp. With the assistance of a new acquaintance he meets, Steven Boyd decides to use black magic as a new weapon against Pedro and his friends. With deadly results, he attacks and it appears he might be winning the war. He should be happy but is surprised and horrified to discover that there will always be a price to pay for using black magic.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOther People's Myths celebrates the universal art of storytelling, and the rich diversity of stories that people live by. Drawing on Biblical parables, Greek myths, Hindu epics, and the modern mythologies of Woody Allen and soap operas, Wendy Doniger O'Flaherty encourages us to feel anew the force of myth and tradition in our lives, and in the lives of other cultures. She shows how the stories of mythology—whether of Greek gods, Chinese sages, or Polish rabbis—enable all cultures to define themselves. She raises critical questions about the way we interpret mythical stories, especially the way different cultures make use of central texts and traditions. And she offers a sophisticated way of looking at the roles myths play in all cultures.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn in-depth look at Maya cave painting from Preconquest times to the Colonial period, plus a complete visual catalog of the cave art of Naj Tunich. In 1979, a Kekchi Maya Indian accidentally discovered the entrance to Naj Tunich, a deep cave in the Maya Mountains of El Peten, Guatemala. One of the world’s few deep caves that contain rock art, Naj Tunich features figural images and hieroglyphic inscriptions that have helped to revolutionize our understanding of ancient Maya art and ritual. In this book, Andrea Stone takes a comprehensive look at Maya cave painting from Preconquest times to the Colonial period. After surveying Mesoamerican cave and rock painting sites and discussing all twenty-five known painted caves in the Maya area, she focuses extensively on Naj Tunich. Her text analyzes the images and inscriptions, while photographs and line drawings provide a complete visual catalog of the cave art, some of which has been subsequently destroyed by vandals. This important new body of images and texts enlarges our understanding of the Maya view of sacred landscape and the role of caves in ritual. It will be important reading for all students of the Maya, as well as for others interested in cave art and in human relationships with the natural environment. “Not only an extraordinarily detailed and insightful analysis of the painted representations and texts found in Naj Tunich but also a complete survey of all known Maya painted caves. . . . A major monograph on a major Maya site. For completeness of presentation, for clarity of writing, and for depth and scope of analysis, [Images from the Underworld] is a model of what a final report should be.” —Journal of Anthropological Research
