Описание: "NEW YORK TIMES "BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY "LOS ANGELES TIMES "AND"BUZZFEED "Taking place nearly a century before the events of "A Game of Thrones, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms "compiles the first three official prequel novellas to George R. R. Martin s ongoing masterwork, A Song of Ice and Fire. These never-before-collected adventures recount an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne, and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living consciousness. Before Tyrion Lannister and Podrick Payne, there was Dunk and Egg. A young, naive but ultimately courageous hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall towers above his rivals in stature if not experience. Tagging along is his diminutive squire, a boy called Egg whose true name is hidden from all he and Dunk encounter. Though more improbable heroes may not be found in all of Westeros, great destinies lay ahead for these two . . . as do powerful foes, royal intrigue, and outrageous exploits. Featuring more than 160 all-new illustrations by Gary Gianni, "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" is a must-have collection that proves chivalry isn t dead yet.

The Juarez Cartel might be one of the smaller Mexican drug cartels, but they were not without guts and ambition. When one of their agents told them of several old mines in extreme Northern California, they took a look at the proposal. The setup appeared good, the mines were remote with decent roads. With a local running interference for them, enlarging of the mines began. The drug distribution plan began to gel, tons of drugs were stockpiled for the day the Mines were open. Semi loads of drugs would be unloaded at night into the mines, then smaller trucks would later carry drugs to distribution points throughout the State. It seemed secure, but there were unforseen problems. The Local working with them had his own agenda, this would become apparent before long. Then there was the local Sheriff, a native of the area who had spent years with the SEALS and NCIS. He was no fool, and many of his men were skilled, Army Rangers in the Reserves. The potential for disaster was great, all it would take was one spark to ignite the flames. Added to this mix, a wealthy Environmentalist, and several bright young women who were involved with the Sheriff and his men. The possibility for armed conflict was high. Cartel AK-47s would be answered by M-16s of the DEA and local deputies, military veterans all.

Not too long later they are joined by Cian's distant, Celtic Shaman right-hand man Timothy Ban Piobar, who offers Kalantha more insight into Olin's dark, unknown past. Together, along with The Beatles' amazing music they are swept into facing the task of saving humanity from the evil doings of the "Others", the "Gorm Granna" will this foursome of transcendental Superheroism be able to finish their mission?

DNA, history and archaeology have shown that the European people, or those of a close enough racial origin, have existed for around 40,000 years, of which Christianity has only been the dominant religion for less than one thousand.
The Celtic religion is possibly one of the most suppressed pre-Christian belief systems of Western Europe. Starting with a racial definition of the Celtic people, this work explores the gods of Celtic France, Britain and Ireland before moving on to a full and highly satisfying review of the major Celtic myths and legends. Read here of the heroism and struggle of Celtic legends such as C chulainn, Finn and the Fenians, and the real origins of "King" Arthur.
This valuable work also discusses in full many of the controversial aspects of Celtic religion, and reveals the truth about Druids and allegations of Celtic human sacrifice--showing the latter to be unsubstantiated anti-Celtic Roman propaganda.
Finally, this book shows how many aspects of Celtic religion have survived into the present-day, and still forms a vital and living part of European culture. A highly recommended and readable overview. Fully indexed.
These volumes, Original European Religions, are a vital resource for any European person seeking to learn about their real cultural heritage, roots and belief systems of their ancestors which existed before the intrusion of Christianity.
