Based On Real Events It's the mid 1980s—a time of leg warmers and Walkmans, a period when technology was starting to take shape, yet tradition still had its strong foundations. The world was an expanse of contrasts, nowhere more so than in the lives of two young individuals: one from the sunburned expanses of Barmera, a quaint town in South Australia's Riverland; and the other from the bustling, neon-lit streets of Tokyo, Japan. Two lives, impossibly different, each characterised by their own forms of simplicity and complexity, familiarity and strangeness. And yet, destiny has a way of weaving tales from the most unlikely threads. Their worlds were destined to collide, challenging their views on love, culture, and what it means to truly be with someone. This is a tale of love, destined to be together by chance, but challenged by the vast distance between them and their immensely different backgrounds. As you turn the pages, you will walk with them through the sunsets of Australia and the neon nights of Tokyo. You'll share their joys, struggles, triumphs, and setbacks. And you'll witness how two individuals separated by geography and culture are united in their search for love and meaning amidst life's unpredictability. Two souls, separated by boundless oceans and contrasting worlds, bound together by a love that defies all odds. Will fate be the force that keeps them apart or the bridge that brings them together? In a world marked by differences they'll find that the language of love is universal—even if it speaks in diverse dialects. A True Story This novel is inspired by true events and real-life experiences. However, names and other identifying details have been changed to protect the privacy and anonymity of the individuals involved. While the story aims to reflect the emotional truth of the events it depicts, it should be noted that some liberties have been taken with the timeline, events, and conversations for the sake of narrative coherence.

"February 2024: Desperate to find refuge from the nuclear storm, a group of civilians discover a secret government bio-dome. Greeted by a hail of bullets and told to turn back, the frantic refugees stand their ground and are grudgingly permitted entry. But the price of admission is high." 283 years later... Sunny O'Donnell is a seventeen-year-old slave who has never seen the sun. She was born in the Pit, a subterranean extension of the bio-dome. Though life had never been easy, lately it had become a nightmare. Her mom was killed in the annual Cull, and her dad thought it was a good time to give up on life. Reyes Crowe, her long-time boyfriend, was pressuring her to get married, even though it would mean abandoning her father. She didn't think things could get any worse until she was forced upstairs to the Dome to be a servant-girl at a bachelor party. That's where she met Leisel Holt, the president's daughter, and her fiance, Jack Kenner. Now Sunny is wanted for treason. If they catch her, she'll be executed. She thought Leisel's betrayal was the end. Turns out, it was just the beginning. Sunset Rising is Book One of a series."

Eleven papers extend discussion of the role and importance of the landscape and the wider environment to past societies, and to the understanding and interpretation of their material remains, into consideration of the significance of the celestial environment: the skyscape. The role of the sky for past societies has been relegated to the fringes of archaeological discourse. Nevertheless archaeoastronomy has developed a new rigour in the last few decades and the evidence suggests that it can provide insights into the beliefs, practices and cosmologies of past societies. Skyscapes explores the current role of archaeoastronomical knowledge in archaeological discourse and how to integrate the two. It shows how it is not only possible but even desirable to look at the skyscape to shed further light on human societies. This is achieved by first exploring the historical relationship between archaeoastronomy and academia in general, and with archaeology in particular. The volume continues by presenting case-studies that either demonstrate how archaeoastronomical methodologies can add to our current understanding of past societies, their structures and beliefs, or how integrated approaches can raise new questions and even revolutionise current views of the past.
