Book Description
Too fondly have I loved these stars; all these galaxies we once called ours. The relationship between the two goddesses is tempestuous at best. Seya is the embodiment of a galactic creation and Tia of cosmic destruction. They create and they destroy and then they do it all over again. Seya and Tia use their divine magic to make pulsars and nebula, to set planets spinning around stars and bind a galaxy together with a central black hole. But when one of Seya's favorite stars goes missing, she blames Tia. What was once a symbiotic cycle of life and death becomes a game of broken hearts and promises betrayed. These tensions and insecurities are explored in sonnets and villanelles; the arc of their love tracked in meter and verse. These poems touch on queer love, betrayal, trust, acceptance, and forgiveness cast against a backdrop of stardust and celestial detritus. A beautiful love story in verse.

THE SUN CREATION THEORY presents the Creation of the Universe
Author: R.L. Dwyer
Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency
ISBN: 1628574585
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
“THE SUN CREATION THEORY presents the Creation of the Universe” will introduce a new and alternative scientific view for the genesis of the Universe, which is currently stated as the “Big Bang Theory” with its fiery explosion of a primordial atom. Instead, the Sun Creation Theory depicts that the beginning of the cosmos was achieved with the creation of the absolute First Sun of the Universe. This is considered the most important event of all time, from which all else will follow. Also presented is a totally new concept that Suns birth Suns, Suns birth Planets, and Planets birth Moons, all accomplished in a very natural sequence of events. The long debated “accretion theory” for these formations can now be set aside. At last a logical explanation can be given as to why all Planets are beholding to their Parent Sun, and why Moons are beholding to their Parent Planet. Finally, the author states that while studying the subject of LIGHT as it pertains to radiation from the trillions upon trillions of Suns in the Universe: “It is my belief that I may have inadvertently stumbled onto the cause of Dark Matter in the Universe.” A totally new theory is being outlined which is the first of its kind. It will require much new thinking by the scientific community before a decision can be made as to its merits. This is the way of science.

Stars and Soil

Publisher: Kraken Collective
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 567
Book Description
“Don’t trust anyone, Lady Caitlin. Not even me. Especially not me. You can have allies here, but this court does not allow you the luxury of friends.” The land is dying, commoners are protesting, and workers are revolting. The king is ailing, but the prince is not stepping in to quell the unrest. Caitlin doesn't care—she hasn't cared about anything since the day her world shattered and she lost everything. But fate intervenes to make her care, throwing first a rebellion leader and then the spoiled prince in her path, giving her the influence and power to rule the realm as queen or tear it all down from the inside. Caitlin would be more than happy to destroy the kingdom, but there's more to the story than the rebels know. Darker forces lurk behind the throne, and if Caitlin is to keep her head attached to her shoulders, she will need to learn more about court politics and ignore the fluttering of her heart whenever she sees a certain court lady. Caught in a web of deception and conspiracies—militant revolutionaries, cryptic priestesses, and a secretive lady-in-waiting with a ruthless family—Caitlin must unravel the truth of a long-hidden magical prophecy, or she will become yet another pawn of an enemy far more dangerous than a tyrannical king. An enemy that has been plotting in the shadows for centuries. And it has its sights set on making Caitlin into its weapon. Stars and Soil is the first novel in the Scions and Shadows series and is perfect for those who like their fantasy full of court gossip, political intrigue, shifting alliances, deep worldbuilding, backstabbing, betrayal, and sapphic and disability representation. Fans of Seth Dickinson's The Traitor Baru Cormorant and Tessa Gratton's The Queens of Innis Lear will feel right at home in this magical, queer-normative world.

Birth over 35
Author: Sheila Kitzinger
Publisher: Sheldon Press
ISBN: 1847092209
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Birth statistics from the Office for National Statistics show that more women than ever before become mothers later in life. The trend is also backed up by figures from other countries around the world. In developed countries there is an upsurge in the age of mothers giving birth for the first time, and in the UK alone there are now more first-time mothers giving birth in the 30-34 age group than in the 25-29 age group. There is also a 50% increase from 10 years ago in the number of women aged 40 - 44 who are having a baby. Women over 35 (or even younger) expecting a first baby are automatically assigned to a "high risk" category, at risk for problems such as hypertension, pre-eclampsia, diabetes, difficult labour, and caesarean section. Research, however, suggests that the mother's overall health is more important than age per se. This updated version of Birth Over 35 (Sheldon Press 1994, Birth Over 30, Sheldon Press 1982) provides the specialist information needed by 'older' mothers.
