Book Description
A twisting thriller that spans from a forbidden Mayan island to the opium fields of Afghanistan. Biologist Dr. David Knight is a lucky man. He has been granted special permission to survey Xulakan—the forbidden island of the Mayan people. At the volcanic island’s birth in the Gulf of Mexico, it rose from the sea looking like a smoking pyramid, almost as if it were a fiery, holy temple. Mayan high priests immediately declared Xulakan to be sacred ground, so it was never inhabited or visited by the ancient people. Legend and fear have kept it strictly off limits for centuries. When Dr. Knight arrives, he senses eyes watching him—human eyes—and he is about to discover a world of lethal secrets. Soon, he begins to realize he might not live to tell the tale . . . A novel of corruption and greed that detours through Afghanistan and the opium trade, and follows the adventures of a ruthless government intelligence agent known as the Viper, this is an edge-of-your-seat thriller from the author of Deadly Cargo, a former Special Forces soldier and wilderness survival expert.

Book Description
Inside the pages of The NSA Files, one of America’s most elite and relatively unknown agencies leads the war against all those that have as their main goal, the destruction of the United States of America. It is here where we find that the ultrasecret National Security Agency (NSA) is on the forefront of protecting America from its enemies, many of whom seek to destroy it with both conventional and nuclear weapons. The NSA is working closely with covert and overt agents from the FBI, CIA, DIA, and operatives from the army’s special forces units, Delta Force and the U.S. Navy SEALs, to ensure that the country remains free from the threat of terror and its citizens enjoy life as they wish, without fear. The NSA’s counterintelligence team is led by Philip King, a former lieutenant with the Norfolk (Virginia) Police Department. He quickly advanced up the ranks of this secret intelligence agency to become an assistant director (AD), with responsibility for electronic countersurveillance.

Book Description
How culture uses games and how games use culture: an examination of Latin America's gaming practices and the representation of the region's cultures in games. Video games are becoming an ever more ubiquitous element of daily life, played by millions on devices that range from smart phones to desktop computers. An examination of this phenomenon reveals that video games are increasingly being converted into cultural currency. For video game designers, culture is a resource that can be incorporated into games; for players, local gaming practices and specific social contexts can affect their playing experiences. In Cultural Code, Phillip Penix-Tadsen shows how culture uses games and how games use culture, looking at examples related to Latin America. Both static code and subjective play have been shown to contribute to the meaning of games; Penix-Tadsen introduces culture as a third level of creating meaning. Penix-Tadsen focuses first on how culture uses games, looking at the diverse practices of play in Latin America, the ideological and intellectual uses of games, and the creative and economic possibilities opened up by video games in Latin America—the evolution of regional game design and development. Examining how games use culture, Penix-Tadsen discusses in-game cultural representations of Latin America in a range of popular titles (pointing out, for example, appearances of Rio de Janeiro's Christ the Redeemer statue in games from Call of Duty to the tourism-promoting Brasil Quest). He analyzes this through semiotics, the signifying systems of video games and the specific signifiers of Latin American culture; space, how culture is incorporated into different types of game environments; and simulation, the ways that cultural meaning is conveyed procedurally and algorithmically through gameplay mechanics.

Book Description
Transmedia in Asia and the Pacific is a timely exploration of a global media phenomena that offers a unique perspective on the production, consumption and use of transmedia storytelling in the Asia Pacific region. Through close analysis of case studies from Australia, Cambodia, China, Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, and West Papua, the chapters in this book provide insight into the cultural and transcultural contexts against which transmedia storytelling takes place in the region. From community theatre and social media narratives in China; to transcultural consumption of Japanese texts in French, Spanish and English speaking countries; to the use of transmedia for education in Japan and China, examples highlight the diverse ways in which a global and commericalised media phenomenon is appropriated and recontextualised to local circumstances. This volume questions the centre/periphery dichotomy of understanding global media through perspectives that seek to enrich understanding and definitions of transmedia. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students wishing to expand their engagement with the theory and practice of transmedia storytelling. Chapters “Chapter 1-Introduction to Transmedia in Asia and the Pacific, Chapter 13 -Teaching Transmedia in China: Complexity, Critical Thinking, and Digital Natives and Chapter 14-Conclusions” are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
