Hawkmoon Books, Notes, and Part of My Manuscript Were Stolen
PLAYERS BOOK DEDICATION I would like to dedicate this to Greg Stafford, who was so very kind and understanding about extending my deadline when my Hawkmoon books, notes, and part of my manuscript were stolen. Thanks, Greg. If there were more people in publishing like you, I would have broken in long ago. But I want this to be dedicated especially to my friend Steve Bailey, who gave into the monster leukemia before his seventeenth birthday. He was always a staunch supporter, and I would like to leave a tribute to him in the only way I know. know he would have been proud. HAWKMOON PLAYTESTERS: Harry A.

No Temple in Palmyra! Opposing the Reconstruction of the Temple of Bel ANDREAS SCHMIDT-COLINET1 Background in 2015, the Temple
3 No Temple in Palmyra! Opposing the Reconstruction of the Temple of Bel ANDREAS SCHMIDT-COLINET1 Background In 2015, the Temple of Bel in Palmyra, Syria was intentionally destroyed with explosives by the so-called Islamic State (ISIL, Daesh). (Fig. 1-3).2 Other ancient buildings in this oasis city were also destroyed. The museum was bombed through its roof, seriously compromising its structural integrity, and many artefacts were purposely smashed. Even the catalogue of the museum’s inventory was destroyed in the civil war. A new survey will have to be taken and a completely new catalogue composed. This alone will require years of work. Other serious consequences of the war were the lootings, especially in the ancient tombs, and the increased illegal export of artefacts, especially from Palmyra. The world's reaction to all these events varied widely. First, mention must be made of the “First Aide” admirably provided by Polish archaeologists: immediately after the destruction of the monumental lion sculpture standing in front of the museum, they went to Palmyra and documented the damage and took steps towards a new restoration. In general, the international press, radio, and television reports raged continuously and with approximate accuracy over the latest levels of destruction. The Mayor of London at that time, Boris Johnson, erected the central arch of Palmyra in a reproduction of reduced proportions at Trafalgar Square3 as a “warning” (Fig. 4). The Russian National Symphony Orchestra staged a Peace Concert in the Palmyra Theatre4 for the benefit of the Russian and Syrian soldiers at which a video of President Vladimir Putin thanking his soldiers for the liberation of 63 64 POST-UPRISING EXCAVATIONS Palmyra and “rescue of ancient culture”,5 something which “the West was not capable of doing” was screened. -

The Metatemporal Detective, 2007, 327 pages, Michael Moorcock, 1591025966, 9781591025962, Prometheus Books, Publishers, 2007 DOWNLOAD http://bit.ly/1aNGivf http://goo.gl/RbVYF http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=The+Metatemporal+Detective Seaton Begg and his constant companion, pathologist Dr "Taffy" Sinclair, both head the secret British Home Office section of the Metatemporal Investigation Department — an organization whose function is understood only by the most high-ranking government people around the world — and a number of powerful criminals. Begg's cases cover a multitude of crimes in dozens of alternate worlds, generally where transport is run by electricity, where the internal combustion engine is unknown, and where giant airships are the chief form of international carrier. He investigates the murder of English Prime Minister "Lady Ratchet," the kidnaping of the king of a country taken over by a totalitarian regime, and the death of Geli Raubel, Adolf Hitler's mistress. Other adventures take him to a wild west where "the Masked Buckaroo" is tracking down a mysterious red-eyed Apache known as the White Wolf; to 1960s' Chicago where a girl has been killed in a sordid disco; and to an independent state of Texas controlled by neocon Christians with oily (and bloody) hands. He visits Paris, where he links up with his French colleagues of the Sûreté du Temps Perdu. In several cases the fanatical Adolf Hitler is his opponent, but his arch- enemy is the mysterious black sword wielding aristocrat known as Zenith the Albino, a drug- dependent, charismatic exile from a distant realm he once ruled. -
