DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is a guide book for those totally new to the art of tying flies. Until now, learning flytying from a book has not only been challenging, but often the cause of great frustration, with photographs or diagrams making even the elementary techniques difficult to grasp. Step-by-step images help a reasonably proficient flytyer understand the stages in making a fly, but for the new beginner, there will always be a gap between each step-by-step image, which can be bewildering. Seeing the manual maneuvers that take place in these pages can make the different between success and failure for a beginner. The techniques you will learn in this book are the building blocks for which all successful fishing flies, even the most complex ones, are based.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhere can you find the worst weather on earth? This book's surprising answer is: everywhere. You don't need to climb Mount Everest or voyage to the icy desert of Antarctica to witness both the beauty and the destructiveness of weather. The same forces are at work in your own backyard. Tying Down the Wind takes readers on a journey of discovery through the atmosphere, a swirling ocean of air that surrounds and sustains life. The adventure begins in a sunny New England woodlot and ends atop the polar ice of Antarctica-where we learn, remarkably, that the two extremes are not so different after all. What triggers changes in the weather? How are tornadoes, thunderstorms, heat waves, and blizzards all related? Tying Down the Wind supplies the answers. It will appeal to fans of nature writing and outdoor adventure, as well as anyone interested in understanding the weather that surrounds us.

Tyler's father wanted to turn the old family castle on the hill overlooking the village into student accommodation. Tyler and five friends moved in as a one year trial. All was quiet at the start of the University year but it soon became clear that there was something else in residence as well. Something old, something dark. It had been there, waiting in the shadows for a long time. It had been disturbed by their presence and it did not like them. It did not want them there. And it was very, very angry. Dreams became nightmares, good times turned to evil. Was it just one entity or many? Who did it hate the most? The final showdown was about to begin. How would they rid the castle of it's presence? Or would this entity destroy them first?
