332 Mal wieder Bock auf eine Runde Drohne fliegen? Klein, wendig und mit viel Gimmick? Dann ran an die DJI Neo! Bei all den Dingen, die die hoch verschuldete Hauptstadt auch nicht kann, ist z.B. in Parks Zonen für Hobby-RC-Flieger einzurichten. Stattdessen trifft man sich in Foren, um auszutauschen, wo die Chance, erwischt zu werden, gering oder hoch sind und was das Erwischt-werden gekostet hat. Daher ist meine MAVIC AIR seit Jahren im Winterschlaf, aus dem ich sie nun in Bayern wieder erweckt habe - um erschreckt die Restleistung der Akkus festzustellen. Und dann kam DJI um die Ecke und wirft, unter der neuen Kategorie "Selfie Drohnen" ein neues Modell auf den Markt. Die kleinste, leichteste und günstigste Drohne überhaupt vom Hersteller, mit 199 € geht der Flug mit der Neo los - und sie bringt neue und typische Gimmicks mit - und eine Empfehlung für eine Drittanbieter-Tasche habe ich auch für euch dabei. Leider ist die maximale Zeichenanzahl für die Shownotes dank einer neuen Norm auf 4.000 Zeichen begrenzt. Daher kann ich den kompletten Blogtext und auch die Bilder nicht mehr in voller Länge in die Shownotes bringen. Daher ist hier mit dem Text bedauerlicherweise schon Schluss. Aber auf... https://ibdnhubzs.de ...geht es auf meinem Blog direkt weiter mit dem Text und in vielen Fällen auch mit begleitendem Bildmaterial - viel Spaß! Und wöchentlich eine neue Anregung mehr!

„Feierabend! Das Gegengift“ Heißt ein legendärer Abend von Helena Waldmann, mit dem sie dem Publikum beibringen wollte, wie man richtig feiert. Und weniger arbeitet. Immer wieder hat sie weltweit Tanzfilme realisiert, unter anderem in Iran, Thailand und Brasilien. Oft setzt sie sich dabei mit brisanten Themen auseinander, wie Ausbeutung („Made in Bangladesh“) und Demenz („Revolver besorgen“). Und macht daraus politisches Tanztheater. Helena Waldmann gilt als eine der wichtigsten Tanz-Regisseurinnen in Europa. In ihrem neuen Projekt „Berliner Hungerspiele“ wird Überlebenskunst selbst zur Kunst.

Wendig, kompakt, gar nicht mal so groß und robust. Diese Schlagworte beschreiben diese Hunderasse vielleicht ziemlich treffend. Auf den ersten Blick sieht er schon einem gedrungenem und kompakten Schäferhund recht ähnlich. Wäre da nicht die besondere Fellfarbe. Ein kunterbunter Hund mit sehr viel Energie unter dem felligen Popo. Wenn du noch mehr wissen möchtest über seine Herkunft, Bedürfnisse und dich auch mit den tierschutzrelevanten Faktoren auseinander setzen möchtest, welche ich dir sehr ans Herz lege, dann hör rein in diese wautastische Folge über diesen besonderen Hund.

Organisationen, die sich entwickeln und zukunftsfähig bleiben wollen, müssen Innovationen hervorbringen: am besten disruptive Erfindungen, die neue Märkte erschaffen. Diese viel beachtete Theorie des Wachstums durch disruptive Innovation hat Whitney Johnson auf die Ebene des Individuums übertragen. Die US-Beraterin zeigt, was zu tun ist, damit Mitarbeitende durch gezielte Disruptionen Entwicklungssprünge machen.
Dogs Are Smarter Than People: Writing Life, Marriage and Motivation
Chuck Wendig has a piece on his blog, Terrible Minds, called "Series vs Standalone: Cage Match," which shows that Wendig is great at blog headlines and marketing. But his riff on a BlueSky conversation between a lot of writer elite. And it's why he's writing standalones mostly from now on instead of a series. Quickly, his reasons are: "Writing a series is depressing. Publishers tend to give all the support only to that first book. Standalones have new hope for ancillary rights Standalones have a new shot at discoverability. If that first book really doesn't work, you're committed to the series anyway. Paper prices are becoming a problem. People tend to be readers of a series and not as much readers of an author." That's a lot, right? But it made me think about the state of publishing and the state of living. Do we want to be a group of series or standalones? Do we want our life to be part of a bigger connective something or inclusive in itself. WRITING TIP OF THE POD Stand alone or series is really about the story and your own personal goals as a writer. Don't let others pigeonhole you into b.s.

Die CSU-Landesgruppe hat sich im Kloster Andechs zu ihrer jährlichen Klausurtagung getroffen. Wie immer gab's deftige Wortmeldungen und eingängige Forderungen. Drei Monate vor der Landtagswahl in Bayern sei das kein Wunder, findet der Publizist und Journalist Albrecht von Lucke im Gespräch mit SWR2 Aktuell-Moderatorin Lissy Kaufmann. Die Attacken auf die Ampelregierung und die Grünen im Besonderen machten durchaus Sinn, so von Lucke weiter: "Ich glaube die CSU fährt keine ganz unkluge Strategie: Sie hat sich das größte Missbehagen in der Bevölkerung ausgesucht, denn die Werte der Ampel sind ja wirklich sehr schwach. Und sie segelt tatsächlich sehr nah bei den Themen der AfD, ohne sich mit der AfD gemein zu machen." Wie von Lucke die Politik der CSU nach der bayrischen Landtagswahl einschätzt, hören Sie im Audio.
Angepasst zu sein, das klingt irgendwie kleinkariert, defensiv. Dabei ist Anpassungsfähigkeit die Schlüsselkompetenz in einer Welt, die uns ständig mit neuen Herausforderungen konfrontiert. Ob wir in dieser Welt bestehen können, hängt maßgeblich davon ab, wie sehr es uns gelingt, uns an neue Gegebenheiten anzupassen – und die Gegebenheiten kraft unserer Fähigkeit, uns auf sie einzulassen, zu gestalten. Immerhin: Adaptability ist kein Schicksal, sondern ausbaufähig.
Predigt von Daniel Kliemt Thema: Heiligabend 2022 Predigt zu Johannes 1.4-5
Chuck Wendig is the New York Times bestselling author of Wanderers, The Book of Accidents, Star Wars: Aftermath (plus tons of other Star Wars stuff), and more than two dozen other books for adults and young adults. A finalist for the Astounding Award and an alum of the Sundance Screenwriters Lab, he has also written comics and games, and for film and television. He's known for his popular blog about writing, terribleminds, and books about writing such as Damn Fine Story.Here he talks the nuts and bolts of writing, including whether it's smart -- or advantageous -- to write “out of order,” as well as the "shape" of the prose on the page and why "all books are audiobooks." Above all, he lives by the commandment “Don't be boring.” Good advice!Wendig lives in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with his family.

Chris, Miranda, Autumn, and guest Megan Johnson discuss this year's top-rated books via Goodreads. During Part 2 we discuss best in science fiction, fantasy, horror, history/biography, nonfiction, and debut novels. Tune in to hear who read which category and their opinions. Also learn our hosts' most memorable books of 2021.
Bestselling author Chuck Wendig's middle grade debut is equal parts spooky, funny, and heartfelt—perfect for Halloween and year-round reading! A fun adventure about rival siblings running a monster mortuary. *"Playing to strengths demonstrated in his many comics and tales for older audiences, not only is Wendig a dab hand at concocting extremely creepy critters, but here he also pulls together a secondary cast of quarrelsome but supportive allies for the beleaguered teens."—Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) *"Monstrously fun.... A sure pick for those enamored by Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book (2008), and Tahereh Mafi's Whichwood (2017)."—Booklist (Starred Review)
Episode one fifty four - part three Chuck Wendig zooms in to chat with us about Book of Accidents, his latest horror novel which is a haunted house book -- maybe? Wendig engages us in a lively chat about local urban legends, working within the realm of RPGs and gives us a peek into his upcoming middle grade book, Dust & Grim.
Weather this hot demands the cool balm of a book, and do I have one for you.The Book of Accidents is the latest horror-epic from Chuck Wendig – the seeming literary successor to King, Straub, McCammon and Barker. Wendig's books take you in their embrace and say “you're mine now” or maybe “we all float down here.” Here, in this case, being a mineshaft in the rural vacancy of Pennsylvania. There is plenty of hype around The Book of Accidents and I'm delighted to say it's all earned. This is quite simply the kind of big, bombastic storytelling you don't get much of anymore, a steak-and-lobster-with-ice-cream for after sort of novel that fills you up and leaves you satisfied. The book is so big, and the ideas so grand, that Chuck and I end up forgetting to talk much about the actual story. Instead we discuss what it has to say about society – good and bad – about kindness, and love and the comfort of horror that we all-too often ignore in favour of the viscera. In short, it's a wholesome conversation about a wholesome book, about a very unwholesome scenario. Oh – and Chuck tells us all about the very real haunted house that inspired it. A house he happens to have grown up in.Enjoy! The Book of Accidents was published by Del Rey on 20th July.Other books mentioned in the show include:Blackbirds: Miriam Black #1 (2012), by Chuck WendigWanderers (2018), by Chuck WendigThe Three (2014), by Sarah LotzRoad of Bones (coming 2022), by Christopher GoldenSupport the show on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/TalkingScaredPod Come talk books on Twitter @talkscaredpod, on Instagram, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com.Thanks to Adrian Flounders for graphic design.

Co-hosts Matt Brandenburg and Michael Patrick Hicks discuss Betty Rocksteady's short story collection In Dreams We Rot, episodes four and five of Shudder's original series, Creepshow, Nicole Cushing's The Half-Freaks, as well as Daniel Kraus's Halloween thriller, Blood Sugar, from Hard Case Crime, and news on his upcoming collaboration with the dearly departed George A. Romero for Tor's Summer 2020 release of The Living Dead. Our intrepid hosts also briefly talk about HBO's debut episode of Watchmen and Adam Nevill's latest folk horror novel, The Reddening. Then, the group breaks out into a spoiler-filled exploration of John F.D. Taff's third installment in his serialized novel, The Fearing, and how it stacks up against 2019's other big apocalyptic event-novel, Chuck Wendig's Wanderers.

New York Times best seller Set between the events of Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens, the never-before-told story that began with Star Wars: Aftermath continues in this thrilling novel, the second book of Chuck Wendig’s best-selling trilogy. It is a dark time for the Empire. The Emperor is dead, and the remnants of his former Empire are in retreat. As the New Republic fights to restore a lasting peace to the galaxy, some dare to imagine new beginnings and new destinies. For Han Solo, that means settling his last outstanding debt, by helping Chewbacca liberate the Wookiee’s homeworld of Kashyyyk. Meanwhile, Norra Wexley and her band of Imperial hunters pursue Grand Admiral Rae Sloane and the Empire’s remaining leadership across the galaxy. Even as more and more officers are brought to justice, Sloane continues to elude the New Republic, and Norra fears Sloane may be searching for a means to save the crumbling Empire from oblivion. But the hunt for Sloane is cut short when Norra receives an urgent request from Princess Leia Organa. The attempt to liberate Kashyyyk has carried Han Solo, Chewbacca, and a band of smugglers into an ambush—resulting in Chewie’s capture and Han’s disappearance. Breaking away from their official mission and racing toward the Millennium Falcon’s last known location, Norra and her crew prepare for any challenge that stands between them and their missing comrades. But they can’t anticipate the true depth of the danger that awaits them—or the ruthlessness of the enemy drawing them into his crosshairs. Praise for Aftermath: Life Debt “Star Wars: Aftermath: Life Debt has found its place at the top of all the new canon works. Simply, outstandingly great Star Wars.” (Star Wars Post) “[Chuck] Wendig once again strikes gold, offering a sweeping narrative with plenty of insight into both the state of the galaxy at large and beloved characters both new and old.” (Alternative Nation) “With an intense plot, political intrigue and great characterization, Wendig’s Aftermath: Life Debt is an excellent read.” (Flickering Myth Praise for Chuck Wendig’s Aftermath) “Star Wars: Aftermath [reveals] what happened after the events of 1983’s Return of the Jedi. It turns out, there’s more than just the Empire for the good guys to worry about.” (The Hollywood Reporter) “The Force is strong with Star Wars: Aftermath.” (Alternative Nation) “The Star Wars universe is fresh and new again, and just as rich and mysterious as it always was.” (Den of Geek)

Happy New Year! Welcome back to the podcast, and welcome to 2019! We're ringing in the new year the best way we know how: with awesome conversations. And one of the most awesome I've had recently with none other than Chuck Wendig. Star Wars fans know Wendig well for his Aftermath trilogy and his graphic novel adaptation of The Force Awakens. He also had a story in the stellar From a Certain Point of View and ALMOST wrote the Shadow of Vader limited series for Marvel (which is a whole other story). But he's so much more than just Star Wars. He's authored some 20 novels, including the Miriam Black series, the Heartland trilogy, Zeroes, Invasive, and many more. He's also figured out the whole Twitter thing. He not only used it to land his Star Wars gig, but he somehow managed to turn a series of tweets (with Sam Sykes) into a movie! Plus, he's an heirloom apple fanatic. What's not to love? Prolific on the page, vocal online, and just a damn fine gentleman, I can think of no better way to kick of 2019. Enjoy! And Happy New Year!
This week on Bizzong! Mr. Frank welcomes an artist who's voice has been silenced. Kitty Glitter is an independent writer who has had their work removed from Amazon and SmashWords as a result of a misguided witch hunt. Mr. Frank welcomes author Kitty Glitter on to Bizzong to discuss their viral rise to infamy. Kitty Glitter is not much different from a Many DeSandra type writer and both have seen their work squelched. Kitty Glitter, unfortanatly, to a much more extreme degree. This level of censorship needs to stop. Right here, right now. Let's rise up as Zongers and support weird, bizarre and transgressive fiction in all forms . Let us support one another against mediocrity. Let's all, as one, #GiveUsTheGong

Welcome back! This week Swara Salih and producer John Liang dig into the new Star Wars series "Resistance". There are several rich political elements in the background of the animated series, and we leave no stone unturned. Also, Star Wars author Chuck Wendig was fired by Marvel and taken off the future Star Wars comics. He presumably won't be used by LucasFilm and Disney for books in the future. Wendig is notably the author of the Aftermath series and is known for his aggressive political rhetoric on Twitter. Marvel fired him, citing the Tweets as vulgar and out of step with their expectations. Is there merit to this move by Marvel and what is the best defense of Wendig? We'll get into it.

We also spend a good amount of time discussing the removal of writer Chuck Wendig from all upcoming comics and novels. https://teespring.com/stores/allthingsswpod Hosts: Dave: @phillydave75 on Twitter and Instagram Mr. Roskam: @DarthRoskam on Twitter and InstagramThe Podcast on Instagram @allthingsstarwarspodPodcast Email: allthingsstarwarspod@gmail.comPodcast Twitter: @allthingsswpod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMyFtdAPcoDsKLVCSL7y0Zw
This week's episode is all about Star Wars novel and comic author Chuck Wendig, his work, and Marvel's choice to fire him last week. We spend at least the first half of the episode discussing Marvel's call to remove Chuck from the Star Wars books he was working on "for having a mind of his own," and we're not happy about it. We felt it was important to address and we wanted to voice our support for Chuck who we believe is responsible not only for some excellent Star Wars stories, but for speaking up against injustice and being unafraid to take a stand on important issues regardless of the fallout. The final portion of the show features a discussion of Chuck's Star Wars work and the contributions he's made to the property.

Ouçam!!!! Qual a expectativa antes de ler o livro? Ouçam!!! Ou Sinopses “Alert!”[1] Valesi: Londres, o Romance, de Edward Rutherfurd: Sinopse:Londres, uma das maiores e mais importantes capitais do mundo, tornou-se protagonista de um livro que faz justiça à sua fama e à sua História. Londres, o romance é a saga viva dessa cidade grandiosa. Tudo começa com a chegada dos romanos, que derrotam o povo das ilhas britânicas e, onde havia apenas um povoado, fundam a cidade de Londinium. A aventura do crescimento e da evolução daquele vilarejo chega até os nossos dias através da vida de personagens memoráveis, como Julius, fabricante romano de moedas, que arrisca sua vida para encontrar um tesouro enterrado; Dame Barnikel, dona da taverna freqüentada pelo poeta Geoffrey Chaucer e seus peregrinos; Geoffrey Ducket, fundador de uma importante família da nobreza; Edmund Meredith e os atores da companhia de Shakespeare, no Teatro Globo; e a pequena Lucy, que vivia nas margens enlameadas do Tâmisa de Dickens. Através da vida dessas pessoas, podemos acompanhar a transformação de Londres na metrópole cosmopolita dos dias de hoje. Um romance criativo e inteligente que chegou às principais listas de mais vendidos britânicas e americanas. Eu, Robô, de Isaac Asimov: Sinopse: ‘Eu, robô’ reúne os primeiros textos de Isaac Asimov sobre robôs, publicados entre 1940 e 1950. São nove contos que relatam a evolução dos autômatos através do tempo, e que contêm em suas páginas, pela primeira vez, as célebres ‘Três Leis da Robótica’ – os princípios que regem o comportamento dos robôs e que mudaram definitivamente a percepção que se tem sobre eles na literatura e na própria ciência. Joshué: Os Anjos do Tempo, de Kevin J. Anderson e Neil Peart: Sinopse: Kevin J Anderson é americano de Racine, Wisconsin, nascido em 27 de março de 1962. O primeiro conto escrito por ele foi aos 8 anos de idade (!). No primeiro romance publicado Resurrection, Inc já recebeu prêmios. Isso lhe catapultou para grandes produções, especialmente expandindo universos fictícios já estabelecidos. Noa anos 90 escreveu três livros no universo de Arquivo X, sendo “Ground Zero” de 1995 e Ruins, de 1996, os mais aclamados pelo público, o primeiro alcançando a lista dos mais vendidos do London Times, e o segundo a do New York Times. Também escreveu diversos livros para o universo expandido (atualmente implodido) de Star Wars, tais como Jedi Academy e a série de 14 volumes Young Jedi Knights. Foi o escolhido por Frank Herbert para ser co autor dos livros da saga Duna e 1997, juntamente com Brian Herbert, trabalho que carregou até 2014. Paralelamente, escreveu a novelização dos filme A Liga Extraordinária e Capitão Sky, e uma série de sete livros de autoria própria, chamada “A saga dos sete sóis”. Além disso tudo, foi o co autor, junto com Neil Peart, do livro Os Anjos do Tempo, que é o nosso tema. A obra é ambientada em um universo Steampunk, onde tudo e todos existem e agem de forma controlada. O Relojoeiro é o grande líder desse mundo, e tudo é premeditado, calculado e estável. Até o momento em que o personagem principal, Owen Hardy, um garoto qualquer, que vive sua vida sob as ordens do relojoeiro como qualquer outro, em uma vila afastada, se vê abandonado, e parte para viver uma grande aventura, repleta de civilizações perdidas, pessoas intrigantes, alquimistas, viagens no tempo, barcos voadores e anarquistas. Papilon, de Henri Charrière: Sinopse: Nascido em Saint-Étienne-de-Lugdarès, Ardèche 16 de novembro de 1906 e falecido em Madrid, 29 de julho de 1973, Henri se alistou na Marinha aos 23 anos, e após servir por dois anos, se tornou um membro conhecido da criminalidade de Paris. Em 1931 foi condenado injustamente pelo assassinato de um rufião chamado Roland Le Petit e sentenciado a prisão perpétua, cumulada com trabalhos forçados, a serem cumpridos na colônia penal Francesa, localizada ilha de St. Laurent du Maroni, na Guiana Francesa. É a partir desse momento que começamos a acompanhar a história de Henri no livro. O título da obra faz alusão ao apelido da Charrière, Papilon (borboleta, em francês), pela tatuagem que carregava no peito. Após 11 anos de prisão, Henri, que nunca se conformou com o tratamento da justiça francesa, finalmente consegue fugir, encontrando refúgio na Venezuela. Charrière publicou suas memórias na França em 1969, e o livro vendeu mais de 1 milhão e meio de cópias. Foi transformado em filme em 1973, com Steve McQueen interpretando o papel do herói. Will: O 11º Mandamento: Sinopse: Depois de se conhecerem no navio que os levou da Índia para o Iêmen, o médico inglês Thomas Stone e a freira carmelita Mary Joseph Praise se reencontram num hospital em Adis Abeba, capital da Etiópia. Da união proibida entre os dois, nasce um par de gêmeos unidos pela cabeça, e operados em seguida. Para completar o cenário dramático, a mãe morre no parto e o pai desaparece no mundo, deixando os meninos nas mãos de um casal de médicos missionários. Shiva e Marion crescem juntos na Etiópia, mas uma mulher abrirá um abismo entre eles, separando-os radicalmente outra vez. Avançando por páginas em que não faltam lugares e personagens fascinantes, a saga se desloca da África para um hospital nos Estados Unidos. Traumas e decepções do passado ressurgem, e será preciso superá-los para reencontrar o amor que os une e a possibilidade de redenção. O Lobo do Mar: Sinopse: Poucos dias antes de completar dezessete anos, após mais uma bebedeira, Jack London caiu na água e só não morreu porque foi resgatado por um pescador. Logo após esse episódio, embarcou no Sophia Sutherland, barco destinado à caça de focas no Pacífico. Essas experiências estão retratadas no livro O lobo do mar. Lançado um ano depois do livro The Call of the Wild (O chamado da floresta) – ambos publicados com estrondoso sucesso -, este romance mostra o embate entre Humphrey van Weyden, um homem das letras, e Lobo Larsen, o implacável capitão da escuna “Ghost”, e a luta que ambos travam para sobreviver às tempestades e outros riscos mortais em alto-mar. Nos vívidos diálogos entre Wolf “Lobo” Larsen e Van Weyden, Jack London revive seus próprios questionamentos e produz uma soberba alegoria sobre a humanidade, o instinto de sobrevivência e o heroísmo. Rubens: STAR WARS – Marcas da Guerra: Sinopse: “Marcas da Guerra” é o primeiro livro oficial mostrando o que acontece depois do clássico “Episódio VI: O Retorno de Jedi”, dando pistas sobre o que podemos esperar de “O Despertar da Força”. Aqui você descobre que a guerra não terminou realmente e os traumas deixados por ela serão sentidos por muito tempo. Novos personagens e velhos conhecidos, agora devem escolher um lado: defender a criação da Nova República ou lutar pela volta do poder absoluto. Jogador n.º 1: Sinopse: “Um mundo em jogo, a busca pelo grande prêmio.” “Você está preparado, Jogador número 1?” O ano é 2044 e a Terra não é mais a mesma. Fome, guerras e desemprego empurraram a humanidade para um estado de apatia nunca antes visto. Wade Watts é mais um dos que escapa da desanimadora realidade passando horas e horas conectado ao OASIS – uma utopia virtual global que permite aos usuários ser o que quiserem; um lugar onde se pode viver e se apaixonar em qualquer um dos mundos inspirados nos filmes, videogames e cultura pop dos anos 1980. Mas a possibilidade de existir em outra realidade não é o único atrativo do OASIS; o falecido James Halliday, bilionário e criador do jogo, escondeu em algum lugar desse imenso playground uma série de easter-eggs que premiará com sua enorme fortuna – e poder – aquele que conseguir desvendá-los. E Wade acabou de encontrar o primeiro deles. As músicas que são citadas no livro vocês conferem nesta playlist no Spotify: Ready Player One Mateus: A Passagem – Justin Cronin: Sinopse: “Quando o homem tenta ser imortal, o fim da humanidade é questão de tempo”. Essa distopia conta a história de um mundo em que a humanidade está quase aniquilada por um vírus de um experimento biológico militar que saiu do controle, e com isso dizimou grande parte dos Estados Unidos (a falta de comunicação entre as colônias sobreviventes não nos permite saber se o fenômeno é mundial). Grupos de pacientes terminais de câncer são levados para a América do Sul em uma viagem que é o último desejo do enfermo, e voltam milagrosamente curados, pois o vírus dá uma grande resistência e fator de cura ao organismo hospedeiro, de maneira curiosa fazendo desenvolver o Timo. Em experimentos militares para potencializar a ação do vírus utilizam-se de prisioneiros no corredor da morte, que são transformados em criaturas como vampiros, super resistentes, muito ágeis e que os pontos fracos são a luminosidade e um ponto no meio do peito, onde é o coração. Não tendo o efeito esperado, buscam usar como cobaia uma criança, a garota Amy abandonada pela própria mãe. Após os seres escaparem do laboratório, matam 9 em cada 10 pessoas, e um transformam em outro vampiro. Após contar sobre o incidente a história pula 100 anos, e fala sobre uma colônia de sobreviventes que enfrenta o drama de continuarem sobrevivendo, mantendo a cidade iluminada 24 horas por dia através da energia fornecida em uma usina eólica, mas as baterias que armazenam a energia para ser usada nos dias que não tem vento estão com a vida útil no fim. Quando Amy aparece, os colonos buscam uma nova forma de combater essas criaturas. O livro tem elementos semelhantes aos livros de George Martin, como uma ótima descrição da colônia, cenários, etc, e faz com que o leitor tenha a simpatia por muitos personagens, mesmo os antipáticos. Um momento muito forte é no início do livro o abandono da Amy pela mãe O livro tem também várias narrativas e a história é contada além do modo converncional, por e-mails, e diários. Peter Pan tem que Morrer – John Verdon: Sinopse: Quarto livro de John Verdon sobre o detetive aposentado David Gurney. O livro cita os casos anteriores, porém sem dar spoiler, mesmo assim a leitura dos livros anteriores não é obrigatória para a compreensão deste livro. Como os livros anteriores, mostra um certo conflito das personalidades do David com sua esposa Madeleine, pois ele mesmo aposentado ainda gosta de solucionar casos, e mesmo que ele diz que só vai dar uma olhada no que a polícia tem, ele não consegue deixar de aprofundar nas investigações. Estar diante de um quebra cabeças é algo que ele não consegue estar sem se envolver e resolver o mistério, por outro lado, Madeleine quer uma vida tranquila após a aposentadoria do marido. Pontas que se fecham no final. A esposa de um grande empresário, com aspirações políticas é presa acusada da tentativa de homicídio, e o amigo de David, Jack Hardwick, desconfia que houve muita negligência na investigação, acusando injustamente Katherine Spalter, esposa de Carl da tentativa de homicídio e pede que Gurney dê uma olhada no caso. O assassino de aluguel, Peter Pan, é um criminoso frio e maquiavélico, que não mede esforços para cumprir sua missão. É um assassino de aluguel contratado exclusivamente para solucionar casos difíeis, é um criminoso caro. Após ver muita negligência na investigação (frase célebre do livro: Dave,meu garoto, não precisa me convencer de que a teoria é uma bosta. Eu sei que é. Tem mais furos do que o braço de um viciado em heroína. (Pág.46)) , Gurney percebe que a filha e o irmão de Carl podem ter contratado Peter Pan para matarem o empresário de modo que eles também ganhassem com isso (a filha a herança, e o irmão o controle sobre a empresa). Um destaque na cena quando Gurney está prestes a descobrir quem é Peter Pan, e por que ele atirou em Carl Spalter, cena esta que acontece em um parque de diversões.

Londres, o romance é a saga viva dessa cidade grandiosa. Tudo começa com a chegada dos romanos, que derrotam o povo das ilhas britânicas e, onde havia apenas um povoado, fundam a cidade de Londinium. A aventura do crescimento e da evolução daquele vilarejo chega até os nossos dias através da vida de personagens memoráveis, como Julius, fabricante romano de moedas, que arrisca sua vida para encontrar um tesouro enterrado; Dame Barnikel, dona da taverna freqüentada pelo poeta Geoffrey Chaucer e seus peregrinos; Geoffrey Ducket, fundador de uma importante família da nobreza; Edmund Meredith e os atores da companhia de Shakespeare, no Teatro Globo; e a pequena Lucy, que vivia nas margens enlameadas do Tâmisa de Dickens. rubensgpnetto 1 1:22:19 contato@edicaorapida.com.br (Edição Rápida)
Amy, Bryan, and Bobby all do their best to weather the double fandom hangover of Force Friday and DragonCon, discussing the many ways in which BB-8 took the world by storm, Captain Phasma proved herself highly elusive, and (much to the consternation of a small, sour sliver of the fandom) Chuck Wendig made a BIG splash with "Aftermath." Bryan interviews Mr. Wendig after the crew reviews this canon blast from a fully armed and operational Lucasfilm.

In this episode of Bibliophiles Anonymous, Denise and Jess are back! A big welcome to all the new followers we have somehow gotten during our hiatus. We were gone for several reasons, some good and some bad, but we are back and ready to go! This episode has no specific topic, other than to just catch up a little (and remind us how to actually do this). We're mostly just talking about our current reads. Jess is currently reading God Save the Queen by Kate Locke. It's the first book in a trilogy and is a vampire, steampunk-but-modern-day story. She is loving it. Denise is currently reading Under the Empyrean Sky by Chuck Wendig. It's also the first book in a series, and is a dystopian, sci-fi deal. She picked it up mostly because she loves Chuck's website, "Terrible Minds," which is an excellent site if you are interested in writing and are not easily offended. Be a part of the show! We are still looking for topic recommendations, since we are now back to actually recording, so let us know if there is anything you'd like to hear us talk about. You can email the show at bibliophiles.podcast@gmail.com, find us on Facebook and Twitter, or leave us comments at our official website, www.bibliophiles-anonymous.com. Our 100th episode is coming up fast and we will have lots of goodies happening around then, so stay tuned! Thanks for listening (and being so patient with us)! Please rate, review and subscribe!
This week find the guys slogging into a mire full of the wonderfully horrible movies produced by The Asylum. To begin, a movie that Tony hated so much he literally threw up while watching it, Mega Shark vs. Crocosaurus. (Albert still thinks this film is pretty rad). Then things get serious when the guys discuss how to conduct a drug intervention, and try to calculate the speed of dark. DOWNLOAD! RSS!

This week, Tony and Al dig into The Innkeepers, a character-driven scare-filled horror film with deep echoes of missed connections and unrequited love. Then, the guys geek out about some of their favourite books, from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to the oeuvre of Chuck Wendig with a minor detour through the world of Harry Potter. Finally Al tries to explain why he enjoyed The Lair of White Worm more than Dracula, and wonders which of the books of our day will be best remembered by history.
